The book not only displays the artist's tremendous catalogue of artworks but also discusses both his influence within the art of the 1960s and later, and his personal and artistic relationships with other major artists from the period. Offering at once a retrospective of Johns's art and a portrait of the American artistic landscape over the past sixty years, this study allows the reader to experience both the historical and contemporary significance of one of their favorite artists.
