Böcker av Hardy S. George

Examines the many ways artists have portrayed both turbulent and calm weather conditions in marine and landscape paintings, drawings, and prints. This book places emphasis on the artist's observation and experience of weather and climate, as well as on works which use calm seas, storms, and tempests as symbol and metaphor.

With styles ranging from traditional to abstract, this volume features works spanning late nineteenth-century and twentieth-century American art. It includes paintings that play on the boundaries between reality and fantasy and are rendered in an expressive style which does not directly imitate the natural world.

Focuses on paintings from the transition from post-war abstract expressionism to fresh artistic developments. This book includes works on paper, paintings, and sculpture by fifty artists including Richard Diebenkorn and Ellsworth Kelly.
