Metcalf. ; Gathers landscapes, portraits, and photographs of arctic explorers, Lapplanders, and cities by Danish, Swedish, Icelandic, Finnish, and Norwegian photographers ; Martin Friedman has served as a guest curator and advisor to a number of art museums since retiring as director of the Walker Art Center in 1990. During his more than 30-year tenure at the Walker, Friedman built a major collection of paintings and sculptures, created the world-famous Minneapolis Sculpture Garden adjacent to the museum, and originated numerous exhibitions of contemporary art. His friendship with Chuck Close goes back to 1969 when he acquired the now-iconic "Big Self-Portrait" from Close for the Walker's collection. In 1980 the museum organized the first Close retrospective, and in the mid-1990s Friedman began a series of discussions with the artist, out of which this book grew. ; blue cloth in photographic color dustjacket ; jacket sunned ; FINE/G.
