Prima edizione
Soft cover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition. Published to accompany an exhibition marking the 100th anniversary of Pollock s and Smith s births, this catalogue reproduces five small sculptures, all dating from the mid-1950s, including the last two sculptures Pollock made and three of Smith s earliest sculptures. The two Pollocks and one of the Smith works were made on the same weekend in July 1956, in the backyard of Smith s home, only weeks before Pollock s death in a car crash on August 11. An essay by Eileen Costello provides a detailed analysis of the five works while elucidating Pollock s career-long involvement with sculpture and the friends development as artists. Paperback with jacket, 32 pages, 24 images, 8 3/4 x 7 inches, 22 x 18 cm.
