Philip Guston: Painter, 1957-1967

Sale price$45.00

Featuring nearly 90 paintings and drawings from the artist’s abstract expressionist period, 'Philip Guston: Painter, 1957–1967' explores a pivotal decade in the artist’s career. At this time, Guston was questioning modes of image making and what it means to paint abstractly, and the resulting body of work reveals the artist wrestling with the reconciliation of gestural and field painting, figuration and abstraction. Published to accompany a presentation of Guston’s work at Hauser & Wirth New York in 2016 and featuring texts by Paul McCarthy, Eva Meyer-Hermann and Ralph Rugoff, Painter, 1957–1967 is an intimate look at the artist’s unique relationship to painting and the evolution of his work.

The Artist

PHILIP GUSTON

Philip Guston (1913 – 1980) is one of the great luminaries of twentieth-century art. His commitment to producing work from genuine emotion and lived experience ensures its enduring impact. Guston’s legendary career spanned a half century, from 1930 to 1980. His paintings – particularly the liberated and instinctual forms of his late work – continue to exert a powerful influence on younger generations of contemporary painters.
