american still life: 1943-1983
DESCRIPTION
Contemporary American artists of the second half of the 20th century use Western conventions related to still-life painting in a wide range of styles and media. A broad range of artists working in painting, sculpture and photography employ these historical conventions to both traditional and subversive ends. The large survey exhibition that this book accompanies includes the work of 67 artists, among them: Milton Avery, Thomas Hart Benton, Robert Colescott, Eric Fischl, Ralph Goings, Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenburg, George Segal and Andy Warhol. Includes an essay by Linda L. Cathcart and documentation on the artists’ careers.TRANSCRIPT
