Summary: "This publication follows, for the first time, Frank Stella's artistic development over five decades, and documents the unique retrospective in the Kunst-museum Wolfsburg with numerous images of his paintings, reliefs, sculptures, models, and works on paper. Frank Stella (born 1936) is one of the last living heroes of American painting of the 1950s and the 1960s. With his turn "from Minimalism to Maximalism," he became one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century. This catalogue offers a multifaceted overview of a fascinating oeuvre, providing new insights into Stella's work through unusual approaches. It also presents, for the first time, all the work series in an overview on four foldout pages."--Page 4 of cover.
