Hardback. Condition: Good. In Fantagraphics ceaseless effort to rediscover every world-class cartoonist in the history of the medium, we turn your attention to a neglected part of the art form sports cartooning and to its greatest practitioner Willard Mullin. The years 1930-1970 were the Golden Age of both American sports and American comic strips, when giants strode their respective fields Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, and Hank Aaron in one, George (Krazy Kat) Herriman, Milton (Steve Canyon) Caniff, Walt (Pogo) Kelly in the other and Mullin was there, straddling both fields, recording every major player and event in the mid-20th-century history of baseball. Mullin was to baseball players what Bill Mauldin was to soldiers: advocate and critic, investing them with personality, humanity, dignity, and poignancy; Mauldin had Willie & Joe and Mullin had the Brooklyn Bum, his affectionate 1939 character representing the bedraggled figure of the Brooklyn Dodgers. Willard Mullin s Golden Age of Baseball: Drawings 1934-1972 collects for the first time Mullin s best drawings devoted to baseball depictions of players like Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Yogi Berra, and Sandy Koufax, legendary managers like Casey Stengel and George Steinbrenner, and events like Lou Gehrig s emotional retirement speech on July 4, 1939, for which Mullin not only drew a portrait but composed a poem (which he often incorporated into his cartoons). Mullin s fluid line and delicate but vigorous brushwork are shown to beautiful effect, with many drawings reproduced from original art. See why millions of baseball fans from the 30s to the 70s looked forward to Mullin s cartoons in their daily paper. Mullins was voted Sports Cartoonist of the Century upon his retirement by his peers, and his legacy has been summed up by New Yorker cartoonist Bob Staake, who wrote, Mullin defined the modern sports cartoon by combining representative portraiture, cartoonish doodlery, and editorial commentary part news account, part personal observation, his cartoons celebrated sport for its entertainment, cultural, and artistic value.…

240 pp.; 23 x 16 cm.; sewn bound; black-and-white; edition size unknown; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed "We owe our idea of the contemporary exhibition to Harald Szeemann--the first of the jet-setting international curators. From 1961 to 1969, he was Curator of the Kunsthalle Bern, where in 1968 he had the foresight to give Christo and Jeanne-Claude the opportunity to wrap the entire museum building. Szeemann''s groundbreaking 1969 exhibition When Attitudes Become Form, also at the Kunsthalle, introduced European audiences to artists like Joseph Beuys, Eva Hesse, Richard Serra and Lawrence Weiner. It also introduced the now-commonplace practice of curating an exhibition around a theme. Since Szeemann''s death in 2005, there has been research underway at his archive in Tessin, Switzerland. An invaluable resource, this volume provides access to previously unpublished plans, documents and photographs from the archive, along with important essays by Hal Foster and Jean-Marc Poinsot. There is also an informative interview with Tobia Bezzola--curator at the Kunsthauz Zurich and Szeemann''s collaborator for many years. Two of Szeemann''s most ambitious exhibitions are presented as case studies: Documenta 5 (1972) and L''Autre, the 4th Lyon Biennial (1997). A biography, an illustrated chronology of Szeemann''s exhibitions and a selection of his writings complete this exhaustive survey." -- publisher''s statement. Texts by Szeemann, Yves Aupetitallot, Mark Nash, Florence Derieux, Hal Foster, Jean-Marc Poinsot, François Aubart, Fabien Pinaroli, Balthasar Burkhard, Sadie Woods, Karin Prätorius, Urs and Rös Graf, Lucia Pesapane, Irmeline Lebeer and John Anthony Thwaites, Jean-Christophe Ammann, Bazon Brock, François Burkhardt, Johannes Cladders, Lucia Pesapane, Claes Oldenburg, Lawrence Weiner, Haeju Kim, Julija Cistiakova, Yuka Tokuyama, Thierry Prat, Thierry Raspail, Chris Burden. Copiously illustrated with images of Szeemann, exhibitions curated by Szeemann. Illustrated chronology of exhibitions curated / organized by Szeemann, selected bibliography. Very Good. Light handling wear evident. Contents clean and unmarked.…
