Author: Gottlieb, Adolph
Adolph Gottlieb was a central figure of the New York School of Art. The Pictograph paintings he began making in 1941 are among the earliest examples of American artists creating work on a par with European modernists while establishing a distinct identity. This beautiful clothbound volume reproduces 200 of Gottlieb’s paintings covering the range of his career, showing his evolution from a 1926 self-portrait, and ending with his last major paintings in 1973. Includes an essay by James Lawrence. Lawrence's essay traces Gottlieb’s career within the context of his contemporaries, as well as the traditions of Western painting, and offers new insights into this important artist’s contributions to his field. The book also contains a lavishly illustrated chronology of the artist’s career that draws from the archives of the Adolph and Esther Gottlieb Foundation.
