Synopsis
This exhibition catalogue includes selections from the personal drawing collections of artists Baselitz, Brown, Fischl, Frankenthaler, Hodgkin, Johns, Katz, Kelly, LeWitt, Lichtenstein, Marden, Murray, Shapiro, Ruscha, Schnabel, and Winters. The works illustrated range from established art historical figures such as Gericault and Tiepolo, to modern masters such as Picasso and Brancusi, to Kotah and Mughal miniatures and a Pygmy bark drawing. Robert Storr addresses why many artists collect and what can be learned by experiencing the medium of drawing through the knowledgeable eyes of artists themselves.

Reviews
Published to accompany an exhibition held at the Drawing Center in New York City, this catalog highlights drawings in the collections of major contemporary artistsAJasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, Helen Frankenthaler, and Georg Baselitz. Compiled by Ann Philbin (former director of the Drawing Center) and Jack Shear, this fascinating book collects an unusually broad array of Western and non-Western traditional and outsider art. There is also an excellent critical essay by Museum of Modern Art curator Bill Storr about the relationship of these drawings to their owners, explaining how an artist's collection may influence his or her style or express support for peers and "aesthetic communities." The book is illustrated with beautiful, full-page color reproductions and contains a complete checklist of the drawings in the exhibition. Recommended for art libraries and academic libraries supporting strong art programs.ASandra Rothenberg, Framingham State Coll. Lib., MA
