Firm binding, clean inside copy. *** "Having realized quite early that he had to be an artist, Smith made his way to New York and the Art Students League. There he experimented with variations on the revealing styles of Cubism and Surrealism, and slo…wly discovered his own technique, particularly the use of industrial methods such as welding to construct his sculptures. The results -- though responsive to such varied influences as Picasso and pin-up girls -- were imaginative, and often strikingly beautiful. Smith's art has inspired generations of followers, but his position as one of the masters of 20th-century sculpture remains unchallenged." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Introduction; Early life and work; The 1940s; The 1950s;The 1960s; Sources and successors; Artist's statements; Notes on technique.
