- Summary
- "This comprehensive monograph, authored by art historian Richard Shiff, offers a multifaceted and critical interpretation of Jack Whitten's art-making and philosophy of life. Informed both by Whitten's extensive writings and his personal conversations with the author, 'Cosmic Soul' offers a close reading of the artist's outlook. Vividly illustrated and ranging freely through the course of the artist's remarkable six-decade career, Shiff's text illuminates the distinctive character of Whitten's thought and the art it generated."--Provided by publisher.
