Though perhaps best known for his portraits, Katz has consistently painted the natural world throughout his career, particularly over the past decade. This beautiful publication takes a fresh look at his landscape paintings through the themes of nature, perception, the passage of time, and contemporary notions of the sublime. These works reveal the American painter's virtuosic control of materials and the absolute clarity and power of his vision, made evident by stripping away unnecessary information to capture the essence of his subjects. Featuring works of art from the 1950s to today, this book is the most extensive look at Katz's treatment of landscape in nearly 20 years. The book includes essays by curator Michael Rooks and art critic Margaret Graham, and poems by John Godfrey and Vincent Katz, who is an art critic as well as the artist's son, providing a timely and important new assessment of the work of this renowned artist. 585 $a Published on the occasion of the exhibition Alex Katz, this is now, High Museum of Art, Atlanta, June 21-September 6, 2015, Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, October 16, 2015-January 31, 2016. 600 10 $a Katz, Alex, $d 1927- $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Landscape painting, American $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Landscape painting, American $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 700 12 $a Katz, Alex, $d 1927- $e artist. $t Paintings. $k Selections. 700 12 $a Rooks, Michael. $t It all goes down in your mind. 700 12 $a Graham, Margaret. $t Alex Katz: in detail. 700 12 $a Godfrey, John, $d 1950- $t Alex Katz, this is now. 700 12 $a Katz, Vincent, $d 1960- $t Alma LiÌrica. 700 12 $a Salle, David, $d 1952- $t Katz paints a rock. 700 1 $a Rooks, Michael, $e curator. $e curator. 700 1 $a Shapiro, Michael E., $e author of foreword. 710 2 $a High Museum of Art, $e issuing body. $e issuing body. 710 2 $a Museo Guggenheim Bilbao, $e host institution. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213020355.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B1EE906E6BEF11E5917E58C1DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
