"Mystery magic ambiguity symbolism classical form and masterful technique characterize the art of George Tooker. For over forty-five years Tooker has painted haunting psychological landscapes that explore the human condition of modern society with the traditional medium of egg tempera employing the exacting detail and representational techniques of Renaissance masters. The absorbing images both enchant and disquiet us in their forceful depiction of the complexities of our age while clearly demonstrating the artist's love of composition and human form." "All his most famous and most frequently reproduced "public" paintings are here: The Subway Government Bureau The Waiting Room Landscape with Figures Corporate Decision and the recent Terminal. These images of contemporary men and women within almost allegorical tableaux powerfully portray the inability to communicate in times of dehumanizing technological advances reflecting the conflict between fear and terror and love and beauty in an anonymous bureaucracy from which there is apparently no exit. The "private" paintings - Lovers Dreamers Sleepers Mirrors and Windows - convey a profound sense of humanism while more romantically and lyrically evoking the same themes of conflict. Here and throughout Tooker's work the commonplace is imbued with a tone of quiet mystery that allows it to become strange and beautiful touching both our spiritual and sensual lives." "This expanded edition of the 1985 monograph now contains over 145 paintings including all work completed since 1985 bringing up to date the entire range of Tooker's important and fascinating work. Over 85 excellent color reproductions beautifully capture the luminous quality of the artist's work in egg tempera and his meticulous painting technique is described in detail through an intimate look into Tooker's studio." "A catalogue raisonne concise biography selected bibliography and lists of public collections exhibitions and awards provide the only complete reference source to Tooker's paintings and career."--Jacket.

2002réf. 2341401New York/Boston: Back Bay Books / Little Brown and Company 2002. Reprint. Trade Paperback. Fine. 5x2x8. New. Reprint. An exceptional copy. 2002 Trade Paperback. xiii 1 770 pp. This comprehensive and authoritative collection of all 1775 poems by Emily Dickinson is an essential volume for all lovers of American literature. Only eleven of Emily Dickinson's poems were published prior to her death in 1886; the startling originality of her work doomed it to obscurity in her lifetime. Early posthumous published collections - some of them featuring liberally "edited" versions of the poems - did not fully and accurately represent Dickinson's bold experiments in prosody her tragic vision and the range of her intellectual and emotional explorations. Not until the 1955 publication of The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson a three-volume critical edition compiled by Thomas H. Johnson were readers able for the first time to assess understand and appreciate the whole of Dickinson's extraordinary poetic genius. This book a distillation of the three-volume Complete Poems brings together the original texts of all 1775 poems that Emily Dickinson wrote. Back Bay Books / Little, Brown and Company paperback books
