Stuart Davis A Catalogue Raisonn . 3vols.
, Yale University Press, 2007 Hardcover in decorative slipcase with dust jacket, 1574 pages, throughout colour illustrations, Language English, FINE, 3 vols set. ISBN 9780300109818.
The highly anticipated, definitive reference on Stuart Davis?s paintings, watercolors, drawings, and published illustrations Stuart Davis (1892?1964) made a mark on the art world early in his career, first with his Ashcan works and then with his highly personal version of Cubism, which firmly established American modernism as a force that could rival its European counterpart. Over the course of six decades, Davis produced artworks that drew inspiration from the European modernists but were deeply rooted in the popular culture of the United States. Jazz music and hipster talk, vaudeville stages, city streetscapes, New England fishing villages, gasoline stations, store fronts, and commercial packaging and advertising images were among the sources that infused his art with energy, bringing crisp edges, radiant color, and syncopated rhythms to a vast body of paintings, watercolors, and drawings. Documenting the life?s work of this prolific and highly influential artist?who affected almost every development in American art from second-generation Ashcan realism around 1912 to color field and geometric painting in the 1960s?is a monumental achievement. In these three volumes, the editors have catalogued 1,749 artworks by the artist?including more than 600 works never previously illustrated?providing extensive documentation and information about each one. A detailed chronology of Davis?s life, as well as an enlightening discussion of the compositional relationship between certain works spanning his oeuvre, rounds out this study. Exquisitely designed and produced, Stuart Davis: A Catalogue Raisonn will be the definitive reference on the artist?s work for many years to come
Stuart Davis: In Full Swing.
, Delmonico Books / Prestel, 2016 Hardcover, dustjacket, 250pp., ills., 26x31cm. ISBN 9783791355108.
This book pays tribute to the mature work of Stuart Davis, a distinctly American artist who adapted European modernism to reflect the sights, sounds, and rhythms of popular culture. Beginning in 1921, a series of creative breakthroughs led Davis away from figurative painting and toward a more abstract expression of the world he inhabited. Drawing upon his admiration for Cezanne, Leger, Picasso, and Seurat, Davis developed a style that would evolve over the next four decades to become a dominant force in postwar art. His visionary responses to modern life and culture both high and low remain relevant more than 50 years after his death. Focusing on the images and motifs that became hallmarks of his career, this book features approximately 100 works?from his paintings of tobacco packages of the early 1920s, the abstract Egg Beater series, and the WPA murals of the 1930s, to the majestic works of his last two decades. The authors take a critical approach to the development of Davis's art and theory, paying special attention to the impact his earlier work had upon his later masterpieces. They also discuss Davis?s unique ability to assimilate the lessons of Cubism as well as the imagery of popular culture, the aesthetics of advertising, and the sounds and rhythms of jazz?his great musical passion. Informed by previously unpublished primary documents, the detailed chronology is, in effect, the first Davis biography. Together, these elements create a vital portrait of an artist whose works hum with intelligence and energy.
