Parrish Art Museum, 1993-06-01. Paperback. Very Good. 9x9x0. Minor shelf wear, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. 96 pages, illustrated in color. Fairfield Porter was a prominent practitioner of representational painting during the mid-20th century in the American art scene. His work defies easy categorization, as he skillfully navigated the tension between realism and abstraction. Rather than being preoccupied with specific subject matter, Porter found the essence of his paintings in the very act of applying paint. The vitality, life, and wholeness of his art emerged from the interplay between these two seemingly opposing forces.In this concise 96-page book, Agee sheds light on Porter’s unique approach, his influences, and the impact he made on the art world.
