"For Frank Stella, 1958 was a crucial year. After graduating from Princeton University, he moved to Manhattan and painted a series of monumental, colorful canvases that culminated in the first of his famous Black paintings. This book focuses on the thirty or so works he painted in that year. The paintings reflect his transformation from a student experimenting with abstract expressionism to a highly original artist whose works changed the course of postwar art." "Presenting the entire group of works in color for the first time (except those that are lost and known only through black-and-white photographs), this book details the course of Stella's career in 1958. The authors situate his work in relation to that of Jasper Johns, whose debut show in 1958 had a strong impact on Stella, and Carl Andre, with whom Stella shared studio space that year. Their analysis examines concepts of originality, repetition, assemblage, illusion, and opticality to forge a new view of Stella's early development." "Drawing on archival findings, firsthand observations of the paintings, and interviews with Stella and members of his circle, this volume enriches our understanding of a fascinating and critical stage in the artist's development."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
