Now at last, almost fifty years after his death, we have what promises to be a definitive catalogue raisonne of his paintings, along with a detailed chronology of his life, an exhibition history, and interpretive essays by leading scholars. An indispensable resource and, beyond that, an event.' Michael Fried, Johns Hopkins University; Google Preview content
