Based on an important exhibition at Albright-Knox Art Gallery, this book clarifies Abstract Expressionism. Curator Michael Auping and seven critics treat issues such as the movement's formative years, the painter Gorky's development in the creative climate of the 1940s, and the movement's artistic heirs. The works of Pollock, de Kooning, Kline, Motherwell, and others are re-evaluated using a better definition of Abstract Expressionism's goals. This book provides text, chronology, and bibliographic notes for research and specialized collections. Highly recommended. Paula A. Baxter, Museum of Modern Art Lib., New York
