Nothing Paintings 1987-1997 by Ida Applebroog, Arthur C. Danto, Terrie Sultan Ida Applebroog (b. 1929) has received international acclaim for the complexly psychological sensibility of her large, multi-paneled paintings. The deceptive, childlike quality of her work masks sometimes startlingly violent themes. This book, which serves as catalog to a major upcoming exhibit at the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, D.C., showcases the work of the painter's productive past eleven years, and is among the most substantial collections of her art.(less)

A great book. Interesting themes, compositions, and presentations. I really like the play she gets from using multiply varied size canvases to form her pictures.
