Visual Art

[close] A group for discussing the best art book releases and recommending your favourites to give others ideas for new books. This includes artist's monographs, picture books, books on art history and theory, photography, design, architecture, drawing and creativity.

[close] Serious discussion for people working in the realm of visual/picture story books for the iPad and Kindle. I am the creator of Cinenovel, a craft publisher of visual story books. I am interested in finding others who have embarked on similar paths, to discuss evolution of this new genre.

[close] The Niche Arts Collection is an exhibition of stories — works of visual art, music, and writing. You can check it out at https://www.nac.digital This group has been created to share the NAC with the Goodreads community in the hope you may discover new stories. And for you writers, the NAC could possibly be a digital home for your work that was loved and labored over but is of a particular niche that is unlikely to be noticed unless it was altered, diluted, or compromised.

[close] A group for performance art, an art form considered as fine art, such as a painting or sculpture. Through their performance, the performance artist often become the material used to make the work. Performance art is based on time, the work exists in the moment of its creation, whilst documentation and artefacts from the performance are often residues, but may still become works in their own right. The performance artist often uses their own body or presence, but might find other ways to orchestrate a time-based piece. The audience who experience the artwork are not separate from the artwork, and they are often either within it or a fundamental part of it.
