Book Description: Univ, 2001. Hardcover. Book Condition: New. FLAWLESS COPY -- 304 pp., 230 illus., 118 in color; 9 x 11 in. - In this groundbreaking book, Harry Cooper, the Fogg’s curator of modern art and an authority on Mondrian, and Ron Spronk, associate curator for research at the Straus Center for Conservation and an expert on the technical examination of paintings, investigate the artist’s transatlantic paintings—17 works Mondrian brought with him when he left Europe for New York and later reworked. This collaborative study offers an intimate look into the studio of one of the greatest modern artists and establishes a new model for integrating art history, theory, and technical analysis. Featured are such major paintings as Place de la Concorde (1938–43) from the Dallas Museum of Art and No. 12 (1936–42) from the National Gallery of Canada. Each work is discussed in a comprehensive entry accompanied by a dazzling array of illustrations that take the reader under the surface of the painting to reveal its genesis.
