Robert Motherwell
Robert Motherwell (1915-91) came to abstraction not through painting, but through philosophy, poetry and art history. While studying at Stanford, he was introduced to modernism and symbolism; Mallarmé's dictum, "To paint, not the thing, but the effect it provides," would prove essential in Motherwell's work. Elegy to the Spanish Republic is perhaps the most literal example of this influence. Begun in 1948, the series, comprising some 150 canvases, was the artist's "funeral song for something once cared about" in abstract pictorial form. Exploring the inextricable links between poetry, politics, writing and painting revealed in the history of the series, this volume includes Harold Rosenberg's "A Bird for Every Bird," Federico García Lorca's "Llanto por Ignacio Sánchez Mejías," notes and writings by Motherwell on the Spanish Civil War, scholarly essays and rare archival material.

Warhol Women
Dedicated to Andy Warhol?s portraits of women from the early 1960s through the 1980s, 'Warhol Women' considers the artist?s feminine subjects as a means to examining his prescient understanding of the myths and ideals inherent to constructions of gender, aesthetics, and power. Fully illustrated and featuring five trifolds and a tipped-on cover, the catalogue includes Brett Gorvy?s interview with Corice Arman, wherein she discusses her experiences sitting for two portraits by Warhol; poetry by Warhol Superstar John Giorno; and a comprehensive selection of the source images and Polaroids Warhol used to create each portrait. In a series of newly commissioned essays, Blake Gopnik discusses the women essential to Warhol's development as an artist, Lynne Tillman examines his complicated relationship with his doting mother, and Alison M. Gingeras writes on women that held diverse and vital roles throughout Warhol's career, from Ethel Scull and Edie Sedgwick, to Brigid Berlin, Pat Hackett, and more.
Calder, Kelly
Accompanying Lévy Gorvy's exhibition Calder/Kelly, this superbly produced catalog reveals the artists' friendship and their shared pursuit of abstraction. A timeline authored by Veronica Roberts traces the history of their relationship with previously unpublished letters between the artists and members of their shared circle of friends. In addition, Calder biographer Jed Perl examines resonances between the artists in his essay "Apollonian Affinities," and philosopher Robert Hopkins discusses the similarities and differences in their approaches to abstraction. Newly commissioned poetry by Dan Chiasson, Forrest Gander and Simon Perchik beautifully responds to works in the exhibition.
Dan Colen
This fully illustrated volume features three bodies of work, Mailorder, Mother and Purgatory, which were included in Lévy Gorvy's first exhibition with Dan Colen (born 1979). The volume includes an essay by Andrianna Campbell placing Colen within the historical tradition of painting, and a conversation between Colen and Jeff Koons, moderated and edited by Douglas Fogle.
