We relish the literature, we sing along to the jazz, blues and country music, but have we ever considered southern art? Referred to by scholars as "the last frontier of American art," Southern art embodies a rich visual heritage. From the coast of the Gulf of Mexico to the Chesapeake Bay, the Mississippi River to the Carolina shore, sculptors, painters and photographers have been telling the complex story of the American South for centuries. Now that story unfolds under one roof, and in one groundbreaking book. The Art of the South chronicles this outstanding collection, ranging from ceramics to photography, watercolors to contemporary oil and mixed-media painting.
