AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Joan Mitchell – Michel Waldberg
Very good condition
Fast and careful shipping
A work dedicated to the American artist Joan Mitchell (1925–1992), a major figure of Abstract Expressionism, written by Michel Waldberg, a critic and art historian recognized for the rigor and clarity of his analyses.
The book offers a structured and accessible presentation of Joan Mitchell's work, blending critical text and reproductions of her paintings. Waldberg places the artist within the context of the New York school while highlighting what makes her unique: a gestural, lyrical painting, often intense, marked by color and rhythm.
The approach is serious without being inaccessible, making the work relevant both for the enlightened amateur and for the curious reader wishing to discover the artist.
From an editorial perspective, it is a well-made art book, typical of 20th-century monographs: careful iconography, dense but readable text. Without being a comprehensive catalog or a luxury edition, the whole is solid, instructive, and durably relevant.
Main interest
a highly recognized and sought-after artist in the art market
Signed text by a recognized author.
Good work of introduction and contextualization.
A serious, well-constructed, and culturally legitimate book that maintains genuine interest in a modern art library.
