About this title

Synopsis

An exhibition catalog of a private collection includes essays on contempory art and artists

Reviews

This catalog of a spring exhibition at the Art Institute of Chicago stands as a monument to the collecting fervor and deep pockets of Chicago lawyer Gerald Elliott. By purchasing the works of 56 prominent American and European artists, Elliott has assembled an overview of the diverse art trends of the past decade. As strong as the collection seems, it is heavily weighted toward the blue-chip painters and sculptors represented by major New York galleries. The 181 fine color plates are interspersed with 12 essays by prominent critics attempting to give perspective to the various art movements and antimovements of the past decades. Recommended for art libraries.
