About This Item
The Museum of Modern Art, 1965. Hardcover. Very Good. 0x0x0. Bound in publisher's cloth. Hardcover. No dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Clean, unmarked pages. <br> "Robert Motherwell, one of the great painters of Abstract Expressionism, is renowned for his work in painting, print and collage that combined a new visual language of gestural abstraction with the dialectical nature of the human psyche. Deeply informed by Henri Matisse, Motherwell strove to liberate color and line from its strict descriptive role and demonstrate its potential as a device by which profound emotions could be expressed through simple means. Throughout his oeuvre, Motherwell's work is defined by pervading dialogues between European modernist traditions and a distinctive and fresh American approach to art making; pure abstraction and figuration; as well as formal and emotional modus operandi." - Kasmin Gallery <br> This is an oversized or heavy book, which requires additional postage for international delivery outside the US.
