The Newspaper in Art presents 400 years of art and media history. Extensively researched, thoroughly annotated and fully indexed, the present volume documents the important role newspapers have played in the development of important art movements. Artists use newspapers as incidental props and minor visual modifiers, but the newspaper attains its highest level of significance in artworks in which it is a key symbol or the sole subject. The Newspaper in Art provides insights into the ways readers and artists interact with news, with journalists and with the newspaper itself. It also illustrates the ingenuity of artists in finding new raw material from which to create art.
