When Philip Guston turned to the medium of lithography in the early
sixties, he was regarded as one of the leading figures of Abstract
Expressionism in the United States. At that time, his art was
already showing signs of the change that would lead to the later
representational works that dominated the last decade of his
career. The impressive series of black-and-white lithographs that
Guston made shortly before his death in 1980 incorporates, as a
sort of visual autobiography, the complete repertoire of objects
that marked his return to powerful pictorial representation: simple
everyday items, clocks, shoes, books, cigarettes, ashtrays, and
occasionally his beloved sandwiches and cherries. All of these
things, taken from the world of the private and intimate, are given
a unique vitality by Gusto' s ironic eye and deliberate hand in the
soft cadences of the lithographic crayon.
