100 New York Painters Hardback
by Cynthia Maris Dantzic
Hardback
Description
This stunning book is the long-awaited result of an extensive review of New York painters and their widely diverse works.
It presents an overview of styles, mediums, subjects, even philosophies of art found in galleries, museums, and artists' studios of present-day New York, the oft-acknowledged Art Capital of the contemporary world.
Although you may recognize the names and works of many, this company of 100 painters also features works by artists less celebrated, though no less deserving of attention.
Expect to find recent works, as well as paintings from an earlier period of an artist's oeuvre -- as near as Kelynn Alder's "Coney Island," painted specifically for this book, and as distant as George Tooker's iconic allegory, "Subway," painted in 1950.
Brief biographical sketches accompany each artist's work, providing insight into their emotional and philosophical connection with art as well as their schooling and accomplishments.
Experience for yourself this visual feast showcasing the unique works of 100 gifted New York painters.
This book is a must-have addition for the library of any art connoisseur and/or collector.
