2021rif. 382961Art Intitute of Chicago/Yale University Press 2021. 1st. Very Good/None. Hardcover pictorial cloth 251 pages illustrated in color. The extraordinary life of a captivating American artist beautifully illustrated with his dreamlike drawings Much of Joseph Elmer Yoakum’s story comes from the artist himself—and is almost too fantastic to believe. At a young age Yoakum 1891–1972 traveled the globe with numerous circuses; he later served in a segregated noncombat regiment during World War I before settling in Chicago. There inspired by a dream he began his artistic career at age seventy-one producing some two thousand drawings over a decade. How did Yoakum gain representation in major museum collections in Chicago and New York What fueled his process which he described as a “spiritual unfoldment” This volume delves into the friendships Yoakum forged with the Chicago Imagists that secured his place in art history explores the religious outlook that may have helped him cope with a racially fractured city and examines his complicated relationship to African American and Native American identities. With hundreds of beautiful color reproductions of his dreamlike drawings it offers the most comprehensive study of the artist’s work illuminating his vivid and imaginative creativity and giving definition and dimension to his remarkable biography. Clean copy. NOTE: DUE TO WEIGHT DOMESTIC SHIPPING ONLY. Record # 382961 Art Intitute of Chicago/Yale University Press hardcover
