Paperback. Condition: Good. A4-size hardback with pictorial boards and beige linen spine in good condition. Together with his artist friends Frank Auerbach, Lucian Freud and Leon Kossoff, the American artist R.B. Kitaj was one of the pioneers of a new type of figurative art in the 1960s. Ten years later, in the mid-1970s, Kitaj…positioned himself as a Jewish artist and saw himself as an instigator of a modern Jewish art movement. Published to accompany the Kitaj exhibition held at the Jdisches Museum in Berlin in 2012-13, this book rediscovers the importance of this aspect of the artist's oeuvre.

Bartley, Tracy et al. R.B. KITAJ: Obsessions, 1932-2007. 264 pages, including 203 color, 65 b&w plates and 5 gatefolds. 4to, boards. Bielefeld, Kerber Verlag, 2013. This catalogue, created for a show at the Jewish Musem in Berlin, does not conform to conventional expectations of a retrospective, at least not where the text is co…ncerned. What you can expect from this book, and get in spades, is a beautifully printed, fabulously illustrated visual survey of Kitaj's career, presented chronologically. His work has not been given this kind of attention in many years, and it is long overdue. There is no general introduction to the artist or his career to orient the reader. The first essay (keep looking, it's on page 83), dives right into the role and meaning of diaspora in Kitaj's work-Walter Benjamin features prominently. Subsequent essays expand on Kitaj's work in the context of his Jewish identity and history. One essay, written by the assistent who worked for him during the last 10 years of his life, provides a more personal perspective. There are several full-page photographs of the artist, but they are undated and without captions. They leave a lingering sense of mystery, which is probably what he would have wanted.
