Accompanying the National Gallery of Art exhibition Philip Guston Now, this fully illustrated catalog presents a sweeping retrospective of Philip Guston’s influential work, from Depression-era muralist to abstract expressionist to tragicomic contemporary master.
Philip Guston-perhaps more than any other figure in recent memory-has given contemporary artists permission to break the rules and paint what, and how, they want. This long-overdue retrospective celebrates his influential work, from social realism to abstract expressionism to tragicomic, cartoony figuration.
