Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "At a time when beauty is much out of favor in the art world, Joseph Raffael has taken what some would consider the highly radical step of daring to paint beautiful pictures. Long one of contemporary art's most highly regarded painters, Raffael transforms intense observations of nature into color-drenched, deeply felt works of art. He often works on a very large scale, using either watercolor, oil, or acrylic to achieve the painstaking detail of his dazzling images. Amei Wallach's warmly perceptive introduction, inspired by a visit to the artist's home and studio in the south of France, explores Raffael's life history, his sources, and his ideas about art. Her individual chapter openers address the predominant subjects within the artist's work, including water and shore scenes, flowers, animals, fish and lilies, sacred symbols, and Raffael's wife, Lannis. A thought-provoking essay by Donald Kuspit places Raffael's painting within the larger context of twentieth-century art, psychology, and philosophy. Complementing these texts are the paintings themselves-sun-dappled carp, luminous iris, tumultuous rivers, and other wonders of nature captured in radiant visual meditations. The artist has also contributed two engaging written pieces, both of which illuminate the pleasures and occasional terrors of the creative process. His 'Diary of a Painting' traces the evolution of one major work over several months, from the original slide to the finished wall-size watercolor, providing insight into the emotional and technical demands of creating a work of art. His informative and revealing 'Autobiographical Chronology' provides a personal look back, from his Brooklyn childhood to his art-making career in New York, California, and the south of France, where Joseph Raffael lives and works today." - Publisher.

Featuring essays by Lanie Goodman, Betsy Dillard Stroud, and David Pagel, the book presents 88 richly coloured works created in Raffael's studio at his home in Cap d'Antibes, France. Joseph Raffael, who studied under Josef Albers at Yale, is known for his luminous, intricate watercolours depicting flowers, koi ponds, birds, shells, and fossilssubjects drawn from the natural environment surrounding his Mediterranean garden. His technique, often wet-into-wet, results in saturated, glowing compositions that evoke the depth of oil painting while remaining unmistakably fluid and alive with light. The book includes essays that provide context and depth to the images. Goodman offers a biographical overview, Stroud contributes a dialogue from one artist to another, and Pagel reflects philosophically on the meaning of beauty and the artist's lifelong dedication to capturing it. Raffael himself refers to these works as emerging from the "deepest waters of the Beauty Sea, " marking them as some of the most profound of his career. Many of the paintings featured are monumental in scalesome as large as five by eight feetand fully immerse the viewer in a meditative exploration of colour, form, and the natural world. An accompanying exhibition at the Nancy Hoffman Gallery in 2015 highlighted these works, reinforcing how Raffael's surroundings and inner vision fuse in his art. In essence, Moving Toward the Light is both a visual celebration and an introspective meditation on the themes of beauty, light, and the power of nature. It positions Joseph Raffael as a master of contemporary realism and one of the most ambitious watercolourists of his time.
