In this first systematic study of the connection between the new cognitive psychology and its importance to art, Solso reflects on the long relationship between humankind and art, observing that "mind and art are one."

This looks like a good book. I think it's important to have information like this on hand when one is dealing with bureaucratic bodies intent on narrowing or cutting art programs. Art making and education is tied in a very important way to our cognitive growth and development as human beings.

During a long and distinguished career Harriet FeBland's sculpture, paintings, drawings and graphics have been shown in many countries outside the United States. These include England and France, Japan and Mexico. It was as an American abroad that this New York born and educated artist began her professional career. She lived and worked in England and France and actively participated in European art circles for more than a decade. Her recognition as a pioneer constructivist sculptor-painter came in the early 60's with her major New York exhibition "Plastic in Art" at the Galerie International. It was soon followed with an invitation from Thelma Newman to be included in the book "Plastics As An Art Form" published by Chilton Press in 1963. This work is still considered the eminent text on the subject today. It also highlights the handful of pioneer artist's working with plastics at that time, and the beginnings of 'construction' as the art form of Ms. FeBland.

It is true that art museums are about the stubborn, matter-of-factness of things: the works of art. But access to the Art Institute's collection has always been enhanced by words and reproduced images. With the launch of our redesigned Web site, we acknowledge the importance of digitized access to the works of art. Here you will learn about the character and structure of our collection and our educational programs and exhibitions. You will also learn how to visit and contact us easily. I very much look forward to seeing you at the museum. James Cuno President and Eloise W. Martin Director

Jeremy McCarter reviews Denis Dutton's book "The Art Instinct". Interesting review of a naturalistic viewpoint on the origins of art.

That's a great article - I'll be looking for that book. The only thing I question is the universal issue. Most people (IMHO) not in the arts seem to have a distrust of it - you know - this idea that it's all chicanery unless they are looking at a near duplicate of consensus reality. So - how does that work into the evolutionary idea - that sense of distrust and even disdain? Is there an anti-art gene?

The Aldrich is one of the few non-collecting contemporary art museums in the United States. Founded on Ridgefield's historic Main Street in 1964, the Museum enjoys the curatorial independence of an alternative space while maintaining the registrarial and art-handling standards of a national institution. Exhibitions feature work by emerging and mid-career artists, and education programs help adults and children to connect to today's world through contemporary art. The Museum is located at 258 Main Street, Ridgefield, CT 06877.
