Description

Robert Ryman: A Painter's Process This volume in the Lambert Collection Icons series presents some of the finest works by Robert Ryman, one of America's foremost abstract painters. Through his paintings, Ryman explores the emotional possibilities of minimalism, stripping away the extraneous to reveal the essence of art. Born in 1930, Ryman discovered art through self-study and visits to New York's museums and galleries. Over a career spanning 60 years, he developed a unique approach to painting, one that involved paring down the essentials to their most fundamental elements. As Ryman himself explained, "The white is just a means of exposing other elements. White enables other things to become visible." Through his paintings, Ryman reveals the story of his creative process, from the initial composition to the final exhibition. This book offers a unique insight into the mind and methods of one of America's most important painters.
