Description
Lee Boltin. The Nelson A. Rockefeller Collection: masterpieces of modern art
"Nelson Rockefeller, as almost everyone knows, was an important collector of contemporary art, whose collection of modern masters was spread out among his various city and country homes.This volume is a picture-book compilation of that collection. It has an introduction by Mr. Rockefeller (written when this book was in its planning stage), an essay by Alfred H. Barr Jr., a preface by Dorothy Canning Miller, and a text by William S. Lieberman. All are brief and to the point - and leave the vast bulk of the book to pictures. These are in color and are excellent, and pretty much cover the entire range of 20th-century modernism from Arp to Warhol, and from the late years of the 19th century to the mid-1970 s.This book is recommended as a supplement to other more definitive studies of modern art." -- Theodore F. Wolff, the Monitor's art critic
