Paintings of cosmic beauty. A major performance by a master of Abstract Expressionism: Richard Pousette-Dart.

Alongside artists such as Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko, Richard Pousette-Dart (1916-1992) was one of the pioneers of Abstract Expressionism, an American avant-garde movement that radically changed the course of modern painting. Like many of his fellow colleagues, the artist was deeply interested in subjects such as myths, the archaic, and Indigenous spirituality. Many of his light-filled works evoke the idea of transcendental powers, often employing motifs that reflect the beauty of the firmament or the charged energy of luminous celestial bodies.

This publication celebrates this important proponent of American painting with a comprehensive overview that includes numerous key works from American collections and brings together outstanding pieces all creative phases of his career--a unique opportunity for viewers to immerse themselves in the colorful and fascinating oeuvre of this exceptional and highly versatile painter.
