During the late 1960s, Gilliam advanced the processes and aesthetics employed by the Color Field painters while radically disrupting the Greenbergian ideal of the contained picture plane. This robust period of output yielded his canonical \u003ci\u003eBeveled-edge\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eDrape\u003c\/i\u003e series, which he spent decades elaborating upon.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSam Gilliam: The Last Five Years\u003c\/i\u003e presents a suite of works created by the late artist in the final years of his life, encompassing arresting variations on his iconic tondos, drapes and beveled-edge paintings. Replete with photographs and foldouts as well as an essay by acclaimed art historian Lowery Stokes Sims, this volume offers an all-encompassing look at Gilliam's dynamic, vibrant compositions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 94\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 10.2 x 9.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 14, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51764599062816,"sku":"9781948701631","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/a5c5510568672c99de3d6344a944ccca.webp?v=1780253167","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/sam-gilliam-the-last-five-years-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
