Louise Fishman
Long overdue, this monograph on Louise Fishman explores the artist's commitment to abstract painting across nearly five decades of boundary pushing work. Fishman is best known for her large-scale gestural absractions, which are at once energetic and orderly, technically masterful yet emotinally evocative. Accompanying the first-ever comprehensive museum survey of Fishman's paintings and drawings as well as a concurrent exhibition devoted to the artist's lesser-known work in small-scale painting and sculpture, this book presents the full story of the artist's roving explorations in abstraction, revealing the remarkable range of her material investigations.

A substantial clothbound appraisal of 60 years of abstraction by Louise Fishman "If good painting is what you want to do, then good painting is what you must look at," New York-based painter Louise Fishman (born 1939) wrote in a 1977 issue of Heresies. "Take what you want and leave the dreck." Fishman is renowned for her subtractive method of mark-making, which celebrates process and rejects the masculinist impulses of abstract expressionism. She uses scrapers, trowels and traditional brushes to apply and remove dense layers of paint in loose, gestural scores across the canvas. Fishman's training as a sculptor is visible in the physicality of her paint, which is vigorously applied, indexing her movement about the canvas. This comprehensive clothbound monograph spans the evolution of Fishman's practice over the last 60 years of the artist's extensive oeuvre. The fully illustrated volume includes two newly commissioned essays by Debra Singer and Josephine Halvorson, with republished essays by Aruna D'Souza, Andrew Suggs, Suzan Frecon, Bertha Harris and John Yau.
