The luminous abstractions of his later career and the innovative figurative works of his middle years firmly established him as a master in the high tradition of modernism. The artist continuously explored his personal vision of the intricate interplay between the formal and the sensual. This classic treatment of his career, updated and augmented to assess the artist's print works, his final years, and his legacy, is the definitive source for scholars and art lovers who want an authoritative take on one of America's favorite modern artists. This revised and updated version of the only true monograph on the artist includes a thorough revision of the existing text and an additional thirty-two pages. The updated section follows Diebenkorn's career from the mid-1980s until his death, focusing particularly on his adventurous late works on paper. |
