Milton Avery: Color Form & Composition

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Milton Avery, the poet of colour, in the catalogue of the MICAS exhibition>And yet, this 'artist's artist' was revered by those who saw in him a master of colour, as his works graduated from early Impressionist landscapes, to the flattened forms of colour that critics say paved the way for the Abstract Expressionists of the 1950s. Summers spent in Provincetown in with Rothko and Gottlieb saw Avery turn the cerulean combination of water and beaches into broad fields of colour that magically converged in simplified representations of colours, 'leaving nothing but colour and pattern.' Rothko would assert that Avery was America's greatest painter - 'his is the poetry of sheer loveliness'.Acknowledging that Avery remains an influential painter for today's generation of contemporary artists, this book is a rare European showcase, which features alongside work from a stellar cast of artists responding to Avery's work, which include his daughter March Avery and others who have drawn on his work as inspiration for their use of colour Henni Alftan, Harold Ancart, Andrew Cranston, Gary Hume, Jonas Wood, Nicolas Party.
