Publisher Description: Lavishly illustrated and beautifully made, this four-volume collector's box set contains three books of plates illustrating all of Levinthal's major series to date--from Hitler Moves East (1972-75) to History (2010-15)--in addition to never-before-published works. The images are organized around the three overarching themes of war, myth and desire, and introduced by texts from cartoonist Garry Trudeau, award-winning essayist Roger Rosenblatt and the artist himself. The final volume in the set makes a major contribution to scholarship on Levinthal's work, bringing together new texts by the curator Lisa Hostetler and contemporary art specialist Joanna Marsh as well as commentary by art critic Dave Hickey. |
