Hardcover. Condition: Used - Very Good. Lipsticks, automobiles, dishwashers, men in business suits, spaghetti, rockets, airplanes, hairdryers, ice cream cones and pigtailed girls. James Rosenquist has always known how to combine these seemingly disparate but always all-American elements into whirlwind, billboard-sized collages of airbrushed surreal euphoria, slamming colors, patterns and objects into one another with the eye of an advertising man and the heart of a Pop artist. This momentous catalogue, published to accompany the first in-depth survey of the artist's work since 1972, will give long-overdue, in-depth attention to Rosenquist's singular achievement in American art. Extensive illustrations cover major works in diverse media, including work on paper that reveals the artist's process, as well as extensive new and archival photography. Essays focus on areas that have only been superficially addressed in the literature to date, bringing the level of Rosenquist scholarship up to that of his Pop Art contemporaries. Curator Walter Hopps provides an overview of the artist's career; Julia Blaut considers the artist's source collages in the context of 20th-century collage; Ruth E. Fine addresses Rosenquist's prints; art collector and former aeronautics researcher Eugene E. Epstein relates the artist's work to scientific phenomena. Also included are a definitive biography, exhibition history and illustrated chronology. This coloful volume is a retrospective of the works of the famous American pop artist. wrapped in complimentary Brodart dust jacket protector. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.

Hardcover. Red cloth over boards with silver lettering; Color illustrated DJ with orange, white and black lettering; xxv, 415 pp.; 182 bw and color figures; 271 color plates. In 2003, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum mounted a major retrospective of James Rosenquist's works, which traveled to the Menil Collection, Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, and Guggenheim Museum Bilbao. Since the late 1950s, James Rosenquist has been creating an exceptional and consistently intriguing body of work. In the 1960s, following his early days as a billboard painter in the Midwest and New York City, he gained fame as one of the leaders of the American Pop art movement. Along with contemporaries Jim Dine, Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenburg, and Andy Warhol, Rosenquist drew on the iconography of advertising and mass media to conjure a sense of modern life. Rosenquist's paintings directly allude to the cultural and political tenor of the times in which they were created. From his renowned Pop canvases to his billboard-sized works and continuing with his recent use of abstract painting techniques, James Rosenquist: A Retrospective presents the artist's enduring interest in and mastery of texture, color, line, and shape that continues to dazzle audiences and influence younger generations of artists. The book features nearly 300 of the artist's most significant works-- Contents as follows: Essays. Connoisseur of the inexplicable / Walter Hopps -- James Rosenquist : collage and the painting of modern life / Julia Blaut -- Off the continental divide and other risky journeys / Ruth E. Fine -- Painting and sculpture : with texts on selected themes. Anonymity, celebrity, and self-promotion / Sarah Bancroft -- Modern issues and current events / Sarah Bancroft -- Rooms with a view : walk-in paintings / Chris Balsiger -- Flora and Florida : "crosshatched" paintings / Michelle Harewood -- Space and scientific phenomena / Sarah Bancroft -- An astronomer observes and feels James Rosenquist's art / Eugene E. Epstein -- Source collages -- Drawings -- Graphics and multiples -- Documentation. Chronology -- Exhibition history / compiled by Sarah Bancroft with Janice Yang -- Selected bibliography / compiled by Sarah Bancroft with Janice Yang.
