Mylar jacket. 336 pp. 174 illustrations, 82 in color. "The central works of Barnett Newman's oeuvre - many of which are reproduced here as full-page color plates - are the subject of an analytical study by Armin Zweite. This study not only gives a comprehensive appraisal of Newman's paintings, from his beginnings through his later works - predominantly large-format, monochromatic paintings - but also deals in detail with all of Newman's sculptures - "Here I", "Here II", and "Here III", "Broken Obelisk", "Lace Curtain for Mayor Daley", and "Zim Zum I" and "Zim Zum II"--as well as with Newman's Model for a Synagogue. The book affords a more differentiated insight into Newman's hermetic oeuvre than would ever be possible in separate treatises on individual parts or periods of Newman's work."--Jacket. VG/VG: Exlibrary book with sticker at the base of the dust jacket. Due date card on the back free end page. Stamps on the top and bottom text blocks. The dust jacket has some stains and a tear in the bottom right corner. A few faint hightlight checks throughout the text.
