So i was never into books because when i was a teen whenever i asked people about cool books they would always tell me about harry potter and novels and lightweight stuff
But i recently found out you /lit/ fuckers have sweet sweet books about art and art movements
Could you recommend me some stuff about moderism, post-modernism, bauhaus, russian constructivism, etc or just books that every art aficionado should read.

Its not like that, honestly that kind of stuff never got me, im pretty bad at reading, as in sitting down and flipping through pages, and fucking HK Rowling never did it easier for me

same thing for pretty much all of us. that's no excuse.
"""""Read""""" the big two-volume 'Art since 1900', and taschen's '100 Contemporary Artists'. 'The Story of Art' is a bit pop-y but will give you a good overview of what happened in art up to the present. Otherwise, just google shit movement by movement, or buy the book on amazon with the most convincing reviews.
