This is the most comprehensive presentation ever published of the work of Joel Shapiro (b. 1941), one of the preeminent American sculptors of our time.Through nearly 300 illustrations, Hendel Teicher meticulously examines Shapiro's career. The artist first became widely known in the 1970s for small sculptures of simple house shapes and tiny structures installed in isolation in the open spaces of gallery floors. By the 1980s, Shapiro had embarked on the figurative sculpture for which he is now famous.Recently, Shapiro has focused on large-scale, outdoor commissions, of which the most famous is that at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C.Extensive documentation of the artist's life, exhibitions, commissions, and the critical literature makes this volume invaluable for scholars and collectors.Hendel Teicher is a Swiss art historian who lives in New York.Michael Brenson is a noted art critic based in New York.
