This major monograph on David Aronson's work from 1946-2002 is a unique and sweeping retrospective. It reproduces and discusses his works done in encaustic, pastel, charcoal, mixed media, and bronze on a wide range of religious and personal subject matter. It also contains a lecture David Aronson delivered in 1967 at Boston University, "Real and The Double Nature of Art." The interpretive essay by Dr. Asher Biemann of the University of Virginia places Aronson's work and biography in an historical, cultural, and intellectual context and comments on specific motifs in his work.
