| Summary: |
Throughout his career, Bishop has engaged European and American traditions of post-war abstraction while developing a subtle, poetic, and highly unique visual language of his own. Alternating between and at times interweaving painting and drawing, Bishops works explore the ambiguities and paradoxes of material opacity and transparency, flatness and spatiality, as well as linear tectonics and loosely composed forms. This book explores his work. |
