About this title

From Library Journal

Jasper Johns is certainly among the best-known contemporary artists, and many critical articles and books on his work have been published. This volume accompanies an exhibition of Johns's drawings at the National Gallery of Art and consists of essays by Rosenthal and Fine, an interview with Johns, and an exhibition catalog. Rather than break new ground, the text carefully situates the exhibited drawings within the context of Johns's oeuvre by relating each drawing to other work by Johns and to statements by Johns and his interpreters. Although not a vital acquisition for general collections, this work would be accessible to general readers and interested laypersons, while still of value to specialists for the detail of its catalog annotations.
