Printing Details

First edition, first printing. Hardback in dustwrapper. 24 × 15.5cm, 387pp.

With his great knowledge, sympathy and provocative style, art critic David Sylvester was unique in his ability to get great artists to talk freely. This astounding book reprints interviews, recorded over the past forty years, with leading American artists, including Richard Serra, Cy Twombly and Louise Nevelson. Together they illuminate all the great developments in American art. Speaking for themselves—intimately, comically, ruefully, passionately—all the artists offer unparalleled insights about their aims, techniques, beliefs and allegiances. No one but David Sylvester could have produced this intricate collage.

Condition

The book is in very good condition. The dustwrapper has a small tear to the top edge but is otherwise good.
