Book Synopsis Remington, Russell and the Language of Western Art by : Peter H. Hassrick
Download or read book Remington, Russell and the Language of Western Art written by Peter H. Hassrick. This book was released on 2000. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As young men, Remington and Russell struck out for the West, seeking adventure and self-identity. Remington stayed for only one year, Russell for the rest of his life. But both eventually became artists, and both took as their subject the disappearing West and its people. Different in temperament and style, they became the focal point of a manufactured rivalry that dominated the American art scene at the turn of the twentieth century and in essence pitted East against West. Camps of followers developed, and duels were waged on their behalf in the press, although neither Remington nor Russell directly engaged in the rivalry.".
