by: Hambourg, Maria Morris and others

Softcover. New York, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1st, 2000, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Softcover, 318 pages. B+W and color photographs throughout. Clean and tight copy. Large exhibition catalog. Although his work has received many awards, been enshrined in the best museums, and been exhibited on several continents, Evans's total corpus is only now being fully examined. This important book revises our appreciation of Evans by presenting previously unknown material in an accessible context. Essays by Maria Morris Hambourg, Jeff L. Rosenheim, Doug Eklund, and Mia Fineman offer novel insights into the sources and legacy of Evans's work. The result is a superb exploration of what was achieved by one of our finest, mostly deeply American artists.
