Description:
Recommended by Christopher Sokolowski, paper conservator for Special Collections
This book provides a solid biography of a leading figure of 20th-century American art and offers an insider’s view of how he developed the late “cartoon” phase for which he is famous. Refreshingly, the book also challenges the tradition of the solitary male artist-genius story by examining the personal cost Guston’s career had on his wife — who quietly supported him — and on his daughter, who decided to speak out through this memoir.
