Oblong 4to, in the original tan cloth lettered in gilt on the upper cover and spine and in the original dustjacket featuring an Alex Katz colour painting. 118pp. A very fine copy, essentially as new. A STRIKING SELECTION OF ARTISTS MAKE THIS ESSENTIALLY A 'WHO'S WHO' OF THE NINETEEN-EIGHTIES NEW YORK ART SCENE. Richard Marshall, then the associate curator of the Whitney Museum, has selected the artists and one of their works to be highlighted. Each selection includes a portrait of the artist by Robert Mapplethorpe (or in his case a self-portrait) and a brief statement or textual impression by the artists themselves. The impressive list of names, from Gregory Amenoff to Terry Winters includes many of the most famous artists of the era.
