Barnett
Newman by Barnett Newman, et al
Book Description: Barnett Newman (1905-1970) was one of the
most profound and influential artists of the twentieth century. A master
of expansive spatial effects and evocative color, he pioneered painting
that was both abstract and emotive, suffused with powerful philosophical
and spiritual meaning. This landmark book surveys the breadth of Newman's
career from his founding role in the New York School in the 1940s to his
key influence on both minimalism and conceptual art in the 1960s. Featuring
more than 100 of his paintings, drawings, prints, and sculptures, the book
also offers significant new scholarly findings based on the archives of
the Barnett Newman Foundation. Despite the apparent simplicity of his signature,
the "zip," Newman's art is richly complicated and unexpectedly diverse.
His works include such masterpieces as Onement 1 (1948), the series Stations
of the Cross (1958-66), and the monumental sculpture Broken Obelisk (1967).
Each work of art in this book is reproduced in full color and accompanied
by its own entry. A comprehensive chronology of the artist's life based
on new documentation, a selected bibliography, and a selected exhibition
history complete the volume.
