Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The first comprehensive monograph on contemporary artist Karen Gunderson written by Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Frank. Widely collected in Hollywood and New York, artist Karen Gunderson is perhaps best known for her work since the 1980s, when she transitioned from painting in color to working only in black. Over her forty-plus-year career, Gunderson has tackled subjects from clouds to royalty to the cosmos. Her long-developed, labor intensive technique, including rigorous brushwork and paint layering, employs a range of black shades that create a unique three-dimensional effect: The multiple textures from the paint catch light and make the paintings shimmer and appear to move, alternating with shadows and highlights that illuminate her subjects-historic royal figures, bodies of water, mountains, and constellations-depending on how the viewer moves in front of each artwork. Tracing the life and career of the artist, Karen Gunderson is written by author and critic Elizabeth Frank, who won the Pulitzer Prize for her biography of poet Louise Bogan and is the author of a number of books on art, including Jackson Pollock, published by Abbeville. Art lovers and artists interested in Gunderson's painting technique will discover captivating works in this book-in more than 100 illustrations-that shows how the artist pushes the limits to what one can do with black paint. While abstract artists of the past, including Ad Reinhardt and Pierre Soulages, have employed black paint, Gunderson has set herself apart from this lineage. She has distinguished herself not only with her use of figurative subjects, but also the way her works radiate a quiet optimism-a sharp contrast with this dark medium. AUTHOR: Elizabeth Frank is a New York-based writer and author of several books on art and literature, including Louise Bogan: A Portrait, for which she won the Pulitzer Prize. ***Signed, Limited Edition*** 1,500 copies 100 illustrations Karen Gunderson's forty-plus-year career is presented and illuminated in this dazzlingly beautiful volume.
