GUMPERT, LYNN, AND RIFKIN, NED Golub
New York, New Museum of Contemporary Art. 1984. (ISBN: 0915557444) Soft Cover , Oblong. Exhibition Catalogue, 96 pp. illus. (some col.), biblio.; 20 x 23 cm. Tight, clean copy. Light shelfwear to wraps. A retrospective of painter Leon Golub, at the height of his popularity as a political artist. From mythic paintings in the fifties to activism against the Vietnam War and portraits of political dictators in the seventies, Golub shifted to scenes of political violence and torture in South Africa, Latin America (US-sponsored death squads), and images of white supremacists. Think of him as the Noam Chomsky of the artworld. Misleadingly dubbed a "Neo-Expressionist" in the eighties. Very Good.
