In his discussion of prints by one hundred pioneer Abstract Expressionist printmakers from across the country, David Acton provides a new, comprehensive view of the American graphic arts at midcentury. Featured are masters of the New York School such as Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Nell Blaine, and Louise Nevelson; and printmakers who worked in Chicago, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, including such remarkable California artists as Richard Diebenkorn and Claire Falkenstein. The broad selection presents an exciting vision of the open exploration and stimulation interdependence of the arts during this dynamic period.
