more follow up

At last week’s training, some of you said you wanted to learn more about the symbolism in the Hudson River School paintings. Rock recommends Barbara Novak’s Nature and Culture: American Landscape and Painting.

 

I also mentioned that Patricia had a couple of recommendations for reading about the overarching theme of A Sense of Place. These are the texts that she used as inspiration when she was developing the exhibition:

 

Bachelard, Gaston, The Poetics of Space, 1964

Jackson, John Brinckerhoff, A Sense of Place, A Sense of Time, 1994

Tuan, Yi-Fu, Space and Place: The Perspective of Experience, 1977
