Peter Selz 2002 Nathan Oliveira Human Subject Art Monograph Paperback

Description: Trade PB. 4to. Published by University of California Pr/San Jose Museum of Art, Berkeley, CA. 2002. xxiv, 238 pages. Illustrated. Wrappers worn with some shelf-wear to the extremities present (wrappers lightly scuffed, rubbed and worn). Book is free of ownership marks. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Nathan Oliveira's (1928--2010) passion for continuing an inner-directed artistic tradition attached to the human subject persisted throughout his more than forty years as a painter and master printmaker. His art represents an ongoing dialogue with artists from Rembrandt to Goya to Munch, Beckmann, Giacometti, and de Kooning--whom he recognized for their insights into the human condition. The human touch, so often absent in contemporary work, is distinct in Oliveira's art. His paintings and monotypes bear the mark of his brush in the tactile quality of the paint and the unique printed surfaces of his monotypes. He lived and worked in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he was professor emeritus of art at Stanford University, Oliveira is widely regarded as a key figure in American art, and his paintings, monoprints, drawings, watercolors, and sculpture have attracted an international audience. This book is the most comprehensive study to date of Oliveira's career as artist and teacher. Generously illustrated with 172 images, more than 100 in color, and including valuable, previously unpublished biographical and bibliographical information, Nathan Oliveira accompanied the major traveling exhibition of the same name.
