Soft cover. xxvii, 337 pp., [24 pp.] plates of photos, some in colour. Fine. In the history of art, only a handful of great artists have been able to articulate the nature of the creative process. Robert Motherwell was one such artist. Not only a seminal painter in the movement eventually referred to as abstract expressionism, he was also a primary theorist and spokesperson for the avant-garde art that developed mainly in New York City during the Second World War. This book features sixteen essays, a number of pieces of exhibition catalogues, over a dozen public lectures, and all the artist's vanguard editorial work.
