Item description from seller

THE MONUMENTAL WORLD OF ROSENQUIST IN PRINT A major catalogue raisonné documenting three decades of James Rosenquist's graphic work, published at the height of renewed institutional interest in American Pop Art during the early 1990s. The volume surveys Rosenquist's complete print production from 1962 through the monumental Time Dust project of 1992, reproducing 229 prints with 259 illustrations, approximately 150 in color. Boldly signed and inscribed by Rosenquist in 1993 on the half-title 'for Bill Ornstein,' adding strong association and presentation appeal. Produced in conjunction with a traveling exhibition organized by the University Art Museum, California State University, Long Beach, the book reflects the growing scholarly reassessment of Rosenquist's role within postwar American art and large-scale experimental printmaking. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Black cloth binding with bright blue spine titles and blind-stamped front cover title. Square quarto format, 10 x 10 inches. 180 pages. Profusely illustrated throughout with approximately 259 illustrations, many in color. Extensive bibliography and catalogue documentation. CONDITION: Near Fine / Very Good. Bindings are tight and secure. Text is clean; light, even age-toning. Minimal shelf handling wear. Dust jacket unclipped with modest handling wear but no chips or tears. Presents exceptionally well in a new protective Mylar sleeve. Signed and inscribed by James Rosenquist on the half-title page. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE - James Rosenquist emerged as one of the central figures of American Pop Art alongside Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, and Claes Oldenburg. His background in billboard painting profoundly shaped his oversized fragmented compositions and his engagement with mass-media imagery. The publication of this catalogue raisonné coincided with expanding institutional recognition of postwar American printmaking and workshop collaborations such as Tyler Graphics and Graphicstudio. Rosenquist's works are held by major institutions including The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Tate Modern. The volume chronicles Rosenquist's transformation from commercial billboard painter into one of the defining visual voices of American Pop Art. Unlike Warhol's cool repetition or Lichtenstein's comic-strip precision, Rosenquist's work exploded into fractured, cinematic juxtapositions drawn from advertising, politics, technology, and consumer culture. Particular attention is given to the artist's print collaborations with Tyler Graphics and other experimental workshops that pushed the scale and technical possibilities of contemporary printmaking. The culminating work, Time Dust (1992), represented an extraordinary achievement in modern print production - an immense multi-sheet composition requiring 82 colors and multiple printing processes. The project has frequently been cited among the most ambitious prints ever produced in the twentieth century.
