Willem de Kooning: A Way of Living

Author(s): Judith Zilczer

Art and Design

In a new format - the bestselling monograph on one of the most influential painters of the 20th century Willem de Kooning was a leading exponent of Abstract Expressionism. MoMA's 2011 de Kooning retrospective drew record crowds, and his prodigious achievements continue to provoke and inspire subsequent generations of artists such as Cecily Brown, Rebecca Warren, and Jonathan Lasker. This new hardback format brings Judith Zilczer's critically acclaimed monograph to a new audience of readers.
