5.0 out of 5 stars Finally a comprehensive book on Ryman!, March 13, 2000
This review is from: Robert Ryman (Hardcover)
Finally, the realist painter is looked into in depth and past due recogniton. The book is amazing- 81 colorplates of his paintings that start as early as 1958 all the way to 1993. Each plate includes a description of the painting, and some the artist's comments about the work. The back of the book even includes a cronology of Ryman's life, exhibitions, newspaper articles, and interviews. The book is a must for any fan of Ryman.

5.0 out of 5 stars His subject is painting, April 4, 2007
By 
Claude Reich (Florianopolis, Brazil and Paris, France) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Robert Ryman (Hardcover)
The definitive study on Ryman. The first opportunity to see his work in depth and to understand how the act of painting is his only preoccupation.
Just as Frans Hals had infinite nuances of black, Ryman has infinite tones and textures of white and these are well rendered in the book thanks to wonderful illustrations. A penetrating text by one of the leading art critics of our time.
It is a hard-to-find book, but nevertheless indispensable in any self-respecting contemporary art library.
