Average Customer Review:
Editor Tom C. Cooper introduces this issue: The phrase Western Art does not just mean pictures of cowboys and ponies, but embraces all disciplines of art from and about or American West - the paintings and drawings of Bierstadt and Russell, the writings of Steinbeck and Muir, and the photographs of Weston and Porter, for example. Accompanying Joseph Stacey's article is a masterpiece of Western art created more than a century ago, a Thomas Moran painting of the Grand Canyon. Later in this issue is an essay penned earlier this year by Lawrence Clark Powell. It's clear that good Western art can be both timeless and timely. Dr. Powell introduces the Ansel Adams portfolio. It has been 60 years since Ansel Adams first took a box Brownie and began to photograph his beloved American West. Arizona can take great pride in being chosen as the repository of the Maestro's materials and papers. ~~~ Cover painting by Les Megargee. Inside front cover, The Wolfmen by Tom Lovell.
