Robert Ryman (1930-2019)
This book offers an affordable introduction to the American abstractionist Robert Ryman, an influential figure in minimalist painting. Ryman's distinctive approach, particularly his ingenious use of white, allowed for the visibility of other elements within his compositions. The volume delves into the creation of his artworks, from their foundational compositional aspects to their eventual 'activation' within exhibition spaces. It chronicles his artistic journey, which began after he settled in New York in 1952 and initially pursued a career in jazz.
