Why did our ancestors make art? What did art mean to them and what does their art mean to us today? Why is art even important? In the book, A little history of Art , the English art critic and author, Charlotte Mullins, takes the reader through 100,000 years of art - from the first works of art ever made, to the central role of art in culture today.
Charlotte Mullins brings art to life through the stories of those who created it. She shows how art can help us see the world differently and understand our place in it, how it helps us express ourselves, fuels our creativity and contributes to our overall well-being and mental health.
