John Elderfield 24739, Museum Of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.) — de Kooning. a Retrospective

Thames & Hudson, 2011, Linnen band met stofomslag, 502, This book offers an unparalleled opportunity to appreciate the development of the artist's work as it unfolds over nearly seven decades. Representing nearly every type of work De Kooning made, in both technique and subject matter, this retrospective includes paintings, sculptures, drawings and prints. Among these are the artist's most famous, landmark paintings - among them \"Pink angels\", \"Excavation\" and the celebrated third \"Woman\" series - plus in-depth presentations of all his most important series, ranging from his figurative paintings of the early 1940s to the balck-and-white compositions of 1948-49, and from the urban abstractions of the mid 1950s to the artist's return to figuration in the 1960s and the large gestural abstractions of the following decade. This volume is the most complete account of De Kooning's career ever published. Exhibition: MOMA, New York September 18, 2011 - January 9, 2012., Goed
