| Description: |
This book presents one of the most outstanding private collections of 20th-century American art in the world and tells the story of how the collection evolved and eventually found a new home at Stanford University. |
| Synopsis: |
Jackson Pollock, Helen Frankenthaler, Willem de Kooning, Richard Diebenkorn, Mark Rothko, Frank Stella - these are just some of the artists represented in the renowned Anderson Collection, a large portion of which was recently gifted to Stanford University, and for which a new museum building is being constructed. This book documents and celebrates this significant collection through full-colour reproductions of each of the 121 artworks as well as scholarly essays on the collectors, the collection and the individual artists and artworks represented in the collection. The book offers fascinating insight into the world of art collecting, curating, research and philanthropy, as well as a magnificent sampling of works from some of America's greatest post-war artists. |
