Joan Simon

Synopsis:
The first monograph of the life and work of artist Susan Rothenberg, this book examines the artist's work both in a broad historical and cultural context and within a narrower focus, interconnecting their themes, images and surface treatments of her paintings with incidents from her daily life. Author Joan Simon follows Rothenberg from her childhood in Buffalo, New York, to her first critical acclaim as a painter in the mid-1970s, the evolution of her increasingly enigmatic art of the 1980s, and her surprising new paintings, with which she begins the 1990s in New Mexico. The artist herself supplies valuable insight into her working methods through interviews with Simon and others.
