Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Assumed First Edition. 45 Pages. Clean book with white pages. . For nearly four decades, Chuck Close has worked from photographs, making striking portraits of his family, friends, and fellow artists. More than any other subject, however, he has painted himself. The first such self-portrait, begun in 1967, has been followed by nearly 100 more in a range of media, including paintings, drawings, photographs, and prints. Unified by the consistent image of the artist's face, this body of work invites us to see the expansive possibilities hidden in a familiar image. This flipbook is being published on the occasion of the exhibition Chuck Close: Self-Portraits 1967-2005, organized jointly by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis.

Richly illustrated with colour plates. Includes text by noted playwright John Guare. *** "In December 1988, at a high point of his career, a collapsed spinal artery left the painter Chuck Close paralyzed from the shoulders down. He was famous by then for his monumental portraits that deconstructed the conventional notions of identity and personality. Now Close was forced to confront his own identity: could a paralyzed man make monumental art? Three years later, a show of new Close paintings appeared; to the astonishment of the art world, they were as large and powerful as ever. Not only had he found a way to paint his physically demanding portraits again; they had also been transformed. A more impressionistic and dynamic vision now throbbed from his canvases with new emotional intensity. In this book, Close has collaborated with his friend, playwright John Guare, to produce a narrative account that tells the story of what Close calls "the event": the day of the trauma itself, the months of slowly recovering the minimal movement that allows him to still paint, and the transformation of his art as a result. The book also brings together all of his new paintings from the last seven years, including images of Roy Lichtenstein, Eric Fischl, April Gornik, and other major contemporary artists. Taking the reader even further into his vision, Close brings Guare behind the canvas and into the Polaroid studio to photograph him as a potential subject for a new portrait. With a unique combination of documentary photographs and commentary, Close shows how he conceives and begins the process of making a portrait, and how the subject plays a role in shaping the final image." - Publisher.
