20th century drawings (Drawings of the masters)

Johnson, Una E

Little,Brown

American artists transformed printmaking from an artistic sideline or technical exercise into a dramatic expression, making it the twentieth century's most innovative art. This is the first book on this subject and covers every development in the art of printmaking, from late 19th century pictorialism through Surrealism, technical experimentation of the 1940s and 50s, to 'Pop Art,' 'Op Art,' and the Minimal modes of the 1970s. Una E. Johnson draws on her long curatorial career tracing the development of techniques and ideas and studying over four hundred artists who have made fine American prints for the past century. From Whistler to Warhol, from Feininger to Arakawa, author Una Johnson discusses them all, as well as the major social events that affected each artistic decade. Illustrated with 29 color and 1459 black-and-white prints, each reproduced on a full page, 'American Prints and Printmakers' recaptures the sometimes bizarre, often beautiful, always fascinating world of America's finest printmakers.
