Written since the turn of the millennium, the texts in 'The Oberver Effect' include meditations on the broader context of painting today alongside reflections on such well-known American painters as Alex Katz, Kerry James Marshall, Nicole Eisenman, and Dana Schutz, as well as practitioners from Europe and beyond, Bernard Frize, Tal R, and Ha Chonghyun among them. As Colvin and Sam point out, the book documents a dialogue between abstraction and the image in which images serve less to represent their described subject than to articulate the sort of painting each one desires to be. 505 0 $a Editor's foreword -- I.
