Frank Stella

Frank Stella is an Italian American painter and printmaker, significant in the art movement called "post-painterly abstraction". His early works anticipates many elements of minimalism, which is why he is also considered by some a minimalist, although most of his later artworks are not strictly minimalist. Compiled by Lawrence Rubin, this catalogue raisonne records all 263 paintings of the early period, plus 11 student works never exhibited or published before. Robert Roseblum introduces the book, explaining and illustrating the dialogue that Stella has always maintained with art history and with other important artists.
