One of the best-known artists of her time, and a true American legend, Anna Mary Robertson \"Grandma\" Moses (1860-1961) was often marginalized as a latter-day \"folk\" painter or a phenomenon of popular media. Accompanying a traveling exhibition, this new book looks closely at the paintings themselves and the artists compelling biography to reassert her role in the development of a culture of modernist art at mid-century. Presenting fresh research, several scholars examine Mosess name, public persona, painted world, and wildly popular place in American pop culture; address the myth of the self-taught artist; and contextualize her work alongside such contemporaries as Horace Pippin, Elie Nadelman, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, and Morris Hirshfield.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rizzoli","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52224839614752,"sku":"NEW0847849236","price":50.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81ZCvDlYv2L.jpg?v=1787291354","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/grandma-moses-american-modern-0847849236","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
