Robert Motherwell Drawings: A Catalogue Raisonne by Katy Rogers (English) Hardco

Description: Robert Motherwell Drawings by Katy Rogers This highly anticipated, definitive publication documenting Robert Motherwells 1,413 known drawings is an essential resource for artists, scholars, collectors, and aficionados FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This highly anticipated, definitive publication documenting Robert Motherwells 1,413 known drawings is an essential resource for artists, scholars, collectors, and aficionados The drawings of Robert Motherwell (1915–1991) are critical to understanding his larger career, but they have been underexplored in scholarship. This long-awaited publication is the first comprehensive compilation of Motherwells drawings. During a career that lasted half a century, Motherwell, one of the preeminent artists of the Abstract Expressionist movement, created a large and varied body of work. He employed a broad range of imagery, inventing, refining, and reinventing his signature motifs. Drawing, which Motherwell described as "perhaps the only medium as fast as the mind itself," was crucial to his output. This two-volume catalogue raisonné includes works from private collections never before seen by the public, as well as works from public collections worldwide. The first volume explores the significance of drawing throughout Motherwells career and illuminates how his drawings both inform and are distinct from his work in other media; it also includes a detailed bibliography and exhibition history of the drawings. The second volume illustrates and thoroughly documents his 1,413 known drawings. Author Biography Katy Rogers is director of the Robert Motherwell catalogue raisonné project and programs director at the Dedalus Foundation. She is co-author of the catalogue raisonné of Motherwells paintings and collages (Yale University Press, 2012) and of Motherwell: 100 Years (2015). Review "Rogerss catalogue raisonné provides a wonderfully rich and in-depth analysis of Motherwells drawings that will be an essential point of reference for many years to come." —Beth Williamson, Burlington magazine Review Quote "Weighty, surely, but this volume is worth every ounce. Just Katy Rogerss elegant introduction could be dwelled on and in, enlightening: nothing weighs on you. . . . Vitality abounds in the artists after-images, containing his layered feelings and responses. From the multidimensional to the flatter conceptual art, always in relationship to the edges, the emotional pitch remains high."-Mary Ann Caws, Brooklyn Rail , "The Ten Best Art Books of 2022" Description for Bookstore This highly anticipated, definitive resource on Robert Motherwells drawings provides thorough documentation and description of the artists most intimate and freely executed works.
