This publication offers an unparalleled opportunity to appreciate the development of the artist's work as it unfolded over nearly seven decades, beginning with his early academic works, made in Holland before he moved to the United States in 1926, and concluding with his final, sparely abstract paintings of the late 1980s.

This in-depth study of the paintings of Willem de Kooning (1904-1997) from the 1940s through the 1970s breaks new ground in its analysis of the artist's working methods and yields new information about previously unreported materials. De Kooning's idiosyncratic working methods have long engendered intense speculation and debate among conservators and art historians, primarily on the basis of visual inspection and anecdotal accounts rather than rigorous technical analysis. This is the first systematic study of de Kooning's creative process to use comprehensive scientific examinations of the artist's pigments, binders, and supports to inform art historical interpretations, thereby presenting a key to the complicated evolution of the artist's work. Written for conservation scientists, conservators, specialists in modern art history, museum curators, and practicing artists, this book offers insights into the way an artist can achieve radical changes in style. The technical discussions will have practical applications for conservators, curators, collections managers, and collectors who care for twentieth-century art.

The artistic development of Willem de Kooning is explored here through a focus on his early drawings, many of which have never before been published, and most of which have not been on public view in decades. An accompanying text and chronology provide insight into de Kooning's ideas and the exhibitions and artists that might have influenced him during the 1930s-1950s.

This catalogue of an exhibition held at Gagosian Gallery, New York, highlights the critical three-year period, 1983–1985, in the last decade of de Kooning’s long career, during which he radically transformed his style. The paintings in this catalogue were selected by John Elderfield, curator of the widely acclaimed, full-scale retrospective of de Kooning’s work held at MoMA in 2011–12. Of the works of this period, Elderfield observed: "De Kooning truly reinvented himself in these extraordinary canvases.…They remain not only spatially complex, but also extremely physical pictures, both visually open and densely embodied." Elderfield’s essay discusses ten themes in de Kooning’s work specific to these paintings. The book also includes texts by five painters reflecting on de Kooning’s late works.

"This volume introduces the diverse voices that comprise Guston's linguistic tapestry. Guston never stopped talking for too long. There may have been periods of silence precipitated by existential moments of doubt, but such lapses seem anomalous when measured against the voluminous transcriptions gleaned and edited by Clark Coolidge. Coolidge has done an admirable job arranging and presenting the book's contents, entirely relevant to anyone curious about Guston, and by extension, American Art of the post-World War II period."—Douglas Dreishpoon, chief curator at Knox-Albright Gallery
