Summary
"The fifth and final volume of essays by Leo Steinberg is devoted to modern and contemporary art. Expertly edited by Steinberg's longtime assistant Sheila Schwartz, this collection includes essays on Cézanne, Monet, Matisse, Ernst, Hans Haacke, Jasper Johns, Jeff Koons, and, in some ways the centerpiece of the collection, Steinberg's landmark essay "Encounters with Rauschenberg." It concludes with a selection of Steinberg's lesser-known occasional humorous pieces. The collection features an introductory essay by noted scholar and curator James Meyer. As with all volumes in the Essays by Leo Steinberg series, it is lavishly illustrated throughout with works by each of the artists Steinberg analyzes"--
