About the artist and work: Exploration and radical change have distinguished New York painter Carroll Dunham's drawings and works on canvas since the beginning of his career. Drawings 1984-2004 documents 20 years of controlled yet delirious lines wrapping around biomorphic landscapes and curling into eruptive blobs and gobs, vividly colored planets and eyeless demons in taut interiors. Klaus Kertess's essay rightly places Dunham among "the explorers of line, Pollock, de Kooning, Twombly and Marden.” CONDITION NOTES: Near fine; slight wear not commensurate with age and use (e.g. slight rub at lower front board corner tip, rear upper board tip gently bumped), strong square spine/tight binding, clean bright and crisp text pages and plates. A beautiful copy.
