商品簡介
This is a big volume (10x12"), and it's hefty--printed on elegant coated stock that beautifully showcases the artwork. San Francisco Bay Area-based artist Van Hoesen (1926-2010) dazzles with the absolute pitch of sweet, precise lines representing extraordinary observation, and her work is represented in numerous museums nationally and internationally. Created during a long life in art, her oeuvre comprises 631 images, presented here with detailed notes. Two essays offer biographical and artistic insights and include numerous excerpts from her hand written journals. Three museums were involved in the production of this catalogue raisonne: Oakland Museum of California, Racine Art Museum, Wisconsin, and University Museums, Iowa State U., Ames.
