THE BEAUTY OF SPACE ART KARTONIERT (TB)

Long before humans wrote  we painted. From mud and ash to acrylic and computers  artists across
the centuries have found countless inventive ways to explore and express some of life's biggest
mysteries. Enter space art  a genre of artistic expression that strives to capture the wonders
of our universe. This lavishly illustrated book chronicles the remarkable development of space
art from a fledgling theme to a modern movement. In Part I  we traverse the history of art and
astronomy from ancient times  through the Industrial Revolution  and into the 20th-century
Space Age. Part II delves into the diverse techniques and subgenres of space art  where you
will learn about things like rocks and balls  hardware art  and cosmic expressionism. Along the
way  we'll stop at places where neither humans nor spacecraft can easily go  from the scorching
surface of Venus and the radiation-soaked volcanoes of Io to the alien terrain of exoplanets
and the depths of distant galaxies. Featuring hundreds of original color images from space
artists and astronomers alike  this book is a vivid visual story about the power of art 
astronomy  and human curiosity. A heavily revised edition of the original Beauty of Space  it
will entertain  educate  and inspire anybody who yearns to make sense of the strange and
surreal sights in our universe.
