Description
|
|
|
|
One of the early great American modernists, painter Marsden Hartley (1877–1943) traveled the United States and Europe in his search for a distinctive American aesthetic. His stay in New Mexico resulted in an extraordinary series of landscape paintings (created in New Mexico and also in New York and Europe between 1918 and 1924) that show an evolution in style and thinking that is key to both Hartley's oeuvre and American modernism after World War I. This book, with 49 color plates and 86 black and white figures, considers Hartley's involvement with the Stieglitz circle and its "soil-and-spirit" philosophy, the Taos art colony, New York Dada, and the impact of the war.
