Mit zahlreichen Abbildungen. - In englischer Sprache. - "This volume is the latest and most comprehensive examination of this important twentieth-century painter. Two hundred thirty-three works, selected in conjunction with the artist, present the full scope of Fischl's career over the past decades [...]. The introduction, by philosopher and critic Arthur Danto, places Fischl in the context of his contemporaries. Commentary drawn from interviews with Fischl, conducted by noted writer Robert Enright, accompagnies the paintings. Finally, a witty and personal afterword by Steve Martin, best known as a gifted comic actor and author, but also an astute collector of modern art, discusses 'Barbeque', a famed Fischl painting from his private collection" (Klappentext). - Provenienz: Bibliothek des Kunsthistorikers Ernst-Gerhard Güse (1944-2023; Nachlassexlibris auf dem vorderen Spiegel). - Der Schutzumschlag minimal angerändert; die vordere Innenklappe des Schutzumschlags mit Knick; sonst und insgesamt gutes Exemplar.
