Seller's Description:
New. Gene Logsdon refers to agrarian art in its many forms as 'a sweet marriage of man and nature, of art and agriculture, of earth and paradise. ' It seems an apt description as he takes us with great candor and little ceremony into the lives of artists and musicians who work close to the ground. His subjects include Peter Hurd, the Wyeths, Karl J. Kuerner, Wendell Berry, Harlan Hubbard, Jo Dan Boyd, and others who articulated the humble stuff of earth with, dare we say, the genius of paradise. We are introduced to art that portrays survival at its most natural; the struggle of and for life is keen and real, expressed with a heartiness that smacks of joviality. Logsdon, like his subject matter, is unpretentious and personal, and The Mother of All Arts with 'a steady kindness written all up and down' is a simple and satisfying read.
