Louise Fishman

"Long overdue, this monograph on Louise Fishman explores the artist's commitment to abstract painting across nearly five decades of boundary pushing work. Fishman is best known for her large-scale gestural absractions, which are at once energetic and orderly, technically masterful yet emotionally evocative. Accompanying the first-ever comprehensive museum survey of Fishman's paintings and drawings as well as a concurrent exhibition devoted to the artist's lesser-known work in small-scale painting and sculpture, this book presents the full story of the artist's roving explorations in abstraction, revealing the remarkable range of her material investigations."
