INDIEFAB Book of the Year Awards -- 2014 Finalist A monumental new monograph accompanying the first major retrospective in fifty years of the work of William Glackens, an important American realist painter. This richly illustrated volume provides a comprehensive introduction to William Glackens (1870-1938), one of the liveliest and most influential American painters of the early twentieth century. A founder of the Ashcan School, along with painters such as Robert Henri and John Sloan, Glackens was crucial to the introduction of modern art in the United States through his collaboration with Albert C. Barnes and his championing of landmark exhibitions of American and European avant-garde art. The finest examples of his works over a fifty-year career, including paintings previously unknown to the general public, are reproduced here-from intimate nudes, portraits, and figure studies to vivid still lifes, vibrant street scenes, and landscapes, in which he captured people and their surroundings with matchless spontaneity and spirit. The book features essays by important scholars examining the artist's relationship with French painting, his social observation and interest in costume, his depiction of women, and his role as a tastemaker.

Longwell, Martha Lucy, Patricia Mears, Carol Troyen, and Emily C. Wood. This revelatory new monograph provides a richly illustrated and comprehensive introduction to William Glackens (1870-1938), an early champion of modernist painting in America and one of its most talented exponents. A founder of the Ashcan School along with painters Robert Henri and John Sloan, Glackens introduced modern art to the United States through his collaboration with the collector Albert C. Barnes and role in the organization of such landmark exhibitions of American and European avant-garde art as the epochal Armory Show of 1913. The finest examples of his works over a fifty-year career, including paintings previously unknown to the general public, are reproduced here-from intimate nudes, portraits, and figure studies, to vivid still lifes, vibrant street scenes, and bright landscapes in which he captured people and their surroundings with matchless spontaneity and spirit. In this new, long-awaited publication, accompanying the first major exhibition in fifty years of the work of William Glackens, thematic essays by important scholars examine many facets of this artist: his early years in Philadelphia; his relationship with French painting; his social observation and interest in fashion and costume; his work as a draftsman and illustrator; his depictions of women, urban crowds, landscapes, seascapes, and still lifes; and his role as a tastemaker and art advocate. Also included are a chronology bibliography, exhibition history, and index.
