American Gothic : the life of Grant Wood  Cover Image Book Book

American Gothic : the life of Grant Wood / by Susan Wood.

Wood, Susan, 1965- (author.). Macdonald, Ross, (illustrator.).

Summary:

From humble beginnings sketching Iowa's cornfields and rolling hills as a child, Grant Wood became the father of regionalism, an artistic movement that celebrated the simple and real-life surroundings of the people. When studying art in Europe in the early 20th century, Grant couldn't find a style that touched his heart quite right. Impressionism, cubism, and abstract art didn't reflect his view of the world. It wasn't until he stumbled upon Gothic art that Grant recognized something familiar.
