Holiday Gifts I Gave and Received 2021
Thursday, December 30, 2021
As the holiday season wanes, it is time for my yearly post about art history gift giving and receiving. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. Feel free to comment here or on Instagram (click here) about your gift giving!
Greek Mythology by Liv Albert
This book was very high on my Christmas list, as I just started listening to her podcast about the same topic. I am so happy that I received this book, and I have begun reading it. Wonderful podcast and book!
Art and Illusion by E. H. Gombrich
I was gifted this book from a family member who is very knowledgable about art theory. This book focuses on artists' ability to depict 3D objects in a 2D space.
The Twelve Lives of Alfred Hitchcock by Edward White
I absolutely love this book! I have started it and can say that the format of this book is wonderful. There are 12 sections- each outlining a section of the filmmaker's life.
West Side Story album on vinyl
Out of the Ordinary: Robert Venturi, Denise Scott Brown, and Associates
I have a dear family member who admires the work of Venturi and Scott Brown (highly recommend their architecture- post to come). This book was originally an exhibition guide for their firm's work.
Metropolitain Museum of Art Tote and Pins
I was gifted all three of these things and absolutely love them. If you follow the AHOD instagram (and you should), you know that I adore art history pins.
Faber-Castell Soft Pastels and Colored Pencils
ArtCurious TShirts
I am so happy I got these! I have wanted these for a very long time.
