About this product
Product Information
In this incisive, abundantly illustrated study, Julie Wosk explores for the first time how the visual arts reflected the explosive psychological impact of the Industrial Revolution on English and American society. Wosk reveals the ways artists and designers responded to the hopes and fears for the first industrial age, and how their work continues to illuminate our own visions of technology and culture. Wosk also reveals the striking ability of artists to capture the drama and the dangers of the new technologies, seen in their images of factories spewing smoke, steam boilers bursting, trains crashing, and comic views of people-turned-automatons. Their art dramatically mirrored widespread feelings of disorientation the phenomenon sociologists have called "breaking frame." Wosk demonstrates the startling impact of new technologies on the decorative arts and industrial design. While critics anquished, manufacturers using new materials poured out elaborately ornamented machine-made copies of original works of art. The new simulations spurred dramatic design debates debates which have resurfaced during our postmodern era. She also highlights how artists' responses to a world newly transformed by technology prefigured the fear and pride, resistance and accommodation to technological achievement, that are still felt over a century later.

Seller was very professional and easy to deal with. The item was shipped immediately and arrived well before its estimated delivery time. This is the first time I have received an item so well-packaged. Not only was it covered in cardboard (see pics below), but the item was also well-wrapped. This was an exceptional level of due care! Thank you, Thatbooklady! You are a pro and a paragon of excellence! I hope to do business with you again! Much appreciated!

Communication is essential and that’s what this seller exudes. It was obvious from the start that she appreciated me as a customer and always assured me of the respect she holds for each item ordered through careful packaging and constant follow up. The vase arrived in perfect condition.
