Cloth in Illustrated Jacket. Condition: Near Fine. Second Revised and Updated Edition. 250pp, 328 illustrations in color and b&w. With a chronology, bibliography and exhibition history. Published by Harry N. Abrams, this massive Robert Motherwell monograph is still the most comprehensive reference on the noted late American Abstract Expressionist artist and scholar. Copiously illustrated, it features an essay by H.H. Arnason as well as the transcript of a lengthy 1977 interview between the artist and Barbralee Diamondstein. A most handsome example of the preferred 1982 revised and enlarged second edition with a printed card stating "With the compliments of the artist" that is additionally BOLDLY SIGNED "Bob" in black ink tipped to the front pastedown accompanied by a business card for "Mr. and Mrs. Robert Motherwell / 173 East Ninety-Fourth Street / New York 28 N.Y." laid in. We acquired this along with several other items signed by Mr. Motherwell and Ms. Frankenthaler directly from the library of their close friend and fellow artist Emerson Woelffer - who has BOLDLY INSCRIBED "Received from Bob. / 4-29-82" in his inimitable handwriting in black ink above the card on the front pastedown. PLEASE NOTE: Additional shipping costs are required for this item beyond our standard rates due to its weight and value - we will inform you of the applicable amount at time of purchase.
