Overview
Long acknowledged as a master of contemporary realism, Philip Pearlstein has remained true to his pursuit of painting monumental nudes since the 1960s. Like Alex Katz, Alice Neel, and others, Pearlstein eschewed the minimalism, conceptualism, and later expressionism practiced by his many of his contemporaries and followed a course of realist figurative painting that has proven to be very influential to a younger generation of artists. The larger-than-life men and women that occupy his canvases, often veering out of the frame at surprising angles, are posed on furniture or against colorful rugs, and rendered cool and motionless under stark, even light. Over the years, Pearlstein's compositions have become more complex with the introduction of folk art, sculpture, and other objects that serve as formal counterpoints to the nudes. The book includes a fascinating interview with the artist and a thoughtful essay by Robert Storr.
