Book Synopsis A Shared Aesthetic by : Geoffrey K. Fleming

Book excerpt: Since its settlement by British colonists in the 17th century, the North Fork of Long Island, New York has attracted artisans of all types, from cabinet makers to clock-makers and builders to boatwrights. Beginning in the mid-19th century, American artists began to explore the area in depth, visiting its picturesque towns and villages, its untouched landscapes and pristine coastlines. Later, many of these visiting artists built or bought properties on the North Fork, and made it a place to call home. "A Shared Aesthetic" explores the history of the many painters, printmakers and sculptors who lived, worked and exhibited on the North Fork. It documents over three-hundred years of the rich artistic and cultural history of the area through original letters, diaries, photographs, and the artworks themselves. 127 colour & 42 b/w illustrations
