Yoakum - Malcah Zeldis - Larry Zingale // u.a.m. -- American Folk Art of the Twentieth Century introduces the reader to every important folk artist in the country, providing biographical and artistic information for over 100 artists and illustrating in color the most important works of each one. Written by two recognized authorities in the field, this beautifully produced volume provides a singular guide to American folk art, a unique catalog of both the artists and their works. The majority of folk artists are painters, and American Folk Art of the Twentieth Century spans a century of remarkable painters, from such early figures as Grandma Moses and Morris Hirshfield to contemporary masters such as Mattie Lou O'Kelley, Larry Zingale, Kathy Jakobsen and Ralph Fasanella. The artistic range is stunning, with works in oils, acrylics, watercolors, and crayon; the variety of moods and subject matter moves from the friendly landscapes of Grandma Moses and O'Kelley to the raw street scenes of Fasanella and the somewhat shocking nudes of Hirshfield. The sculpture included ranges from Pucho Odio's beasts and the haunting people of Edgar Tolson to relief carving and wall plaques by such sculptors as Mary Shelley. Other media include painted steel weather vanes by Virgil Norberg and Laura Lynch's textile creations of appliqued wall hangings. (Klappentext) ISBN 0847805034
