This handsome volume offers a rare and exclusive look at important holdings of a private collection in Chicago, showcasing 120 drawings by some of the leading artists of the postwar period. Among the featured artists are Roy Lichtenstein, Barnett Newman, Robert Rauschenberg, and Frank Stella. Also illustrated are thirteen early drawings by Mel Bochner; works on paper by Sol Le Witt and Brice Marden; and individual sheets by Jasper Johns, Donald Judd, Ellsworth Kelly, Agnes Martin, Bruce Nauman, Bridget Riley, Ed Ruscha, and Robert Ryman. Mark Pascale discusses specific drawings by these artists and their relationship to Minimalist and Post-Minimalist styles. He also investigates the importance of drawings produced by sculptors, which offer fascinating glimpses into their creative processes. An interview with the collector reveals the inspiration behind his holdings and the ways in which his collection has grown over the years, and a full-colour plate section and complete checklist of the collection round out this compelling book.
