About This Item
All of Leonard Baskin's prints are documented, and the vast majority are illustrated in this volume. As a sculptor, printmaker, and book creator and designer, Leonard Baskin stands among the artistic masters of our century. Of all his work, his prints have left the deepest mark upon his entire generation, in the words of poet Ted Hughes, they are "images of the extremes, the intimacies, the actualities of human suffering." Baskin's genius lies in his unerring ability to reveal essence--be it of the human condition, the atrocity of war, or nature's fragile order. Baskin prints, such as "The Man of Peace", have become icons of our time, carrying messages of increasing urgency to modern man. This is the first book to reveal Baskin's remarkable scope and versatility as a printmaker.
Included is a 6-page program in Portland, Oregon, 2007, "Graphic Force, Humanist Vision: Leonard Baskin Works on Paper. "Aug. 18-Nov. 11, 2007. (VG+)
