Synopsis:
Edwin Dickinson (1891-1978) was a representational painter, highly regarded by his abstract expressionist contemporaries. In addition to landscapes, nudes, still lifes, figures and portraits, he is known for his ambitious, multi-faceted compositions of enigmatic and fantastic content, in the tradition of such American mystical artists as Albert Pinkham Ryder. This monograph covers all of Dickinson's finest work, including his "premier coups", landscapes done in the first rush of inspiration. Douglas Dreishpoon's essay surveys Dickinson's life and career, both of which revolved around Cape Cod, Buffalo, and New York's Finger Lakes region. Mary Abell's essay covers the artist's influential career as a teacher. Francis O'Connor analyzes Dickinson's self-portraits and major symbolic compositions.
About the Author:
Dreishpoon is curator of 20th-century art at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery and lives in Buffalo. Abell, assistant professor at Dowling College, Oakdale, New York, resides in New York City, as does O'Connor, an independent historian of American art.
