Description

The first publication to focus on the Art Institute's outstanding collection of American modernism, this volume includes over 175 important paintings, sculptures, decorative art objects and works on paper made in North America between World War I and 1955. Together they fully reveal the history of American art in these decades, including examples of early modernism, Social Realism, Surrealism and Abstract Expressionism. Among the paintings are such iconic works as Hopper's 'Nighthawks' and Wood's 'American Gothic', along with notable pieces by Davis, De Kooning, Hartley, Lawrence, Marin, O'Keeffe, Pollock and Sheeler. Among the sculptors represented are Calder, Cornell and Noguchi. Spectacular decorative artwork by the Eameses, Grotell, Neutra, Saarinen, F. L. Wright and Zeisel are also featured. Illustrated in full colour, each work is accompanied by an accessible and up-to-date text, complete with comparative illustrations. The introduction traces the formation of this important collection by a number of noted curators, collectors, and patrons.
