This landmark book, the first major study of one of America's eminent Impressionists, examines the life and work of Theodore Clement Steele (1847-1926). Born in a "little log house in an orchard" near Gosport, Indiana, T. C. Steele had a lifelong love affair with the Indiana landscape, but the timeless universality of his picture-making provides his depictions of the midwestern landscape and cityscape with a welcoming familiarity that appeals to all lovers of art and nature. The thirty-eight color paintings selected for this volume, many of which have never been reproduced before, celebrate not only the beauties of Indiana but those Steele observed in his travels to Germany and the Pacific Northwest. The superb color reproductions, which capture the subtle interaction of form, color, and light in Steele's poetic and masterfully executed images reveal the universality and "beauty, harmony and order" that have earned his art renewed critical attention in recent years.

Hyman Bloom, perhaps America's greatest expressionist, is honored for the first time in this book dedicated to his life and work. Bloom's work is violent, dark, theatrical and fluid; few artists have merged brutality and sensitivity so effortlessly in the tradition of Durer and Goya. Bloom's work is included in the Museum of Modern Art, Whitney Museum of American Art, Boston Museum of Fine Art, and the Hirshhorn Museum. All of Bloom's major themes are illustrated in this volume in 31 full-color illustrations. His work derives its strength from his perception of Judaism and his fascination with Eastern thought and mysticism.

Times Square has been called the crossroads of the world, and is probably the most photographed location on the planet! For over 25 years, Toby Old has had a photographic dialogue with Times Square -- at different times of day, in all lights, and during all seasons, with its multitude of events, parades, theater, sports, sex shops and industries. Old offers us a different look at Times Square, pulling no punches. In a fraction of a second, his square format camera captures the freakish moments of the fringes of our culture. His photographs are presented as a quartet: Boxing, Fashion, Disco and Times Square itself. He is a voyeur in the photographic tradition of Weegee, Robert Frank and Diane Arbus.

The illustrious Bay Area figurative artists emerged in the mid-fifties and attained national acclaim by the early sixties. Their improvisational compositions and the perceptually derived canvases of the East Coast realists marked the regeneration of representational painting at the height of Abstract Expressionism and Greenbergian Formalism. Theophilus Brown first achieved national attention more than a half century ago with his 'football' paintings, but the visual and thematic character of this work began to crystallize when he moved to Berkeley and enrolled in the graduate studio program at the University of California. Always a figurative painter, Brown's aesthetic sensibility was formed through his post-war contact with Picasso, Braque, Giacometti, and others in Paris; the influence of Willem de Koonig's mentoring in New York; and his heady rapport with David Park, Elmer Bischoff, Richard Diebenkorn, Paul Wonner, James Weeks, and Nathan Oliviera in Berkeley. Today this close knit and highly influential group, known here and abroad as the Bay Area figurative painters, has attained legendary status in twentieth century American art.
