The American sculptor, painter, draftsman and printmaker H.C. Westermann (1922-1981) was a central figure in American art, lauded as an American original who steadfastly followed his own finely crafted and keenly ironic sensibilities. Published in conjunction with the David and Alfred Smart Museum's "See America First" exhibit, this book presents the first comprehensive, scholarly consideration of Westermann's graphic work and serves as a catalogue raisonne of his prints: over 100 large-format colour images and 20 black-and-white illustrations are accompanied by detailed entries containing key historical information on Westermann's art. Critic, curator and art historian Dennis Adrian contributes an overview essay examining Westermann's body of work.
