Front endpapers lightly soiled. Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. Another copy available. *** A retrospective exhibition of the social surrealist, neo-Romantic American painter Eugene Berman (1899-1972). *** "The work of the acclaimed visionary artist Eugene Berman taps into a fascinating and little-known undercurrent in twentieth-century aesthetics. Variously labeled neo-Romantics, fantacists, neo-humanists, and magic realists, Berman and his peers ignored the formalist dicta of modernism to explore lyrical, emotive, and highly personal realms deemed the 'melancholic sublime.' In High Drama, Michael Duncan's exploration of the beliefs, styles, and legacy of the "melancholic sublime," and the biographies and reproductions of the work of thirty-five artists, complete a thorough look at a school of great interest, ripe for rediscovery by today's museum-goers and readers." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Dedication to Robert L. B. Tobin, by Linda Hardberger; High drama: Eugene Berman and the legacy of the melancholic sublime, by Michael Duncan; Dance to the death: neo-Romanticism, Surrealism, and the ballet, 1933-1953, by Jody Blake.
