Alfred Morang, a neglected master

This is a book about a creative genius, Alfred Morang, who epitomized the arts spirit of Santa Fe, New Mexico for more than 20 years and left in his wake a path of brilliance and lasting influence which will require generations to fully assess. To Alfred Morang, art was more than just a facet of life, it was life itself. Throughout this book, Morang's voice is heard with excerpts from his personal writings on art. He was not only a brilliant painter but he was a superb teacher who was capable of transforming, with wit and informativeness, the driest and dustiest subjects into fascinating, fertile substance. This book includes, in addition to his drawings and graphic work, a handsome portfolio of more than 50 of his finest paintings in full-color, a number of which have never been exhibited or reproduced.
