Jason Polan is on a mission to draw every person in New York, from cab drivers to celebrities. He draws people eating at Taco Bell, admiring paintings at the Museum of Modern Art, and sleeping on the subway. With a foreword by Kristen Wiig, Every Person in New York, Volume 1 collects thousands of Polan's energetic drawings in one chunky book. As full as a phone book and as invigorating as a walk down a bustling New York street, this is a new kind of love letter to a beloved city and the people who live there.

Experience the contemporary impressionist landscape paintings of modern artist Erin Hanson.

The first comprehensive overview of an important genre of American art, Souls Grown Deep explores the visual-arts genius of the black South. This first work in a multivolume study introduces 40 African-American self-taught artists, who, without significant formal training, often employ the most unpretentious and unlikely materials. Like blues and jazz artists, they create powerful statements amplifying the call for freedom and vision.

The meaning of art has not been determined till date. The word art is such a broad and dynamic concept that despite thousands of definitions of various scholars touch on only one particular aspect of art but when the consciousness awakened, that form of energy gives form to the joy arising inside the mind of the artist. This book ( Art and Artists- vol 2 ) is a small part of the blissful energy of some such artists. Hopefully it will give a comprehensiveness to the thinking by erasing the boundaries of selfishness, family, region, religion, language and caste etc. formed in the mind of every person and will satisfy the aesthetic appetite of art lovers and artists.
