Literary Nonfiction. Art Studies. Edited by Helen A. Harrison.
Foreword by Irving Sandler. The absence of traditional subject
matter was a primary issue for painters in mid-twentieth-century
America whose imagery lacked representational references; it was
also a problem for those struggling to understand modern art.
Robert Goodnough (19170-2011), then a New York University graduate
student and an artist deeply involved with these issues, responded
to the situation in a 1950 research paper, "Subject Matter of the
Artist: An Analysis of Contemporary Subject Matter in Painting as
Derived from Interviews with Those Artists Referred to as the
Intrasubjectivists." Goodnough's paper constitutes the first
scholarly work on the artists who became known as the Abstract
Expressionists and includes interviews with William Baziotes,
Willem de Kooning, Adolph Gottlieb, Robert Motherwell, Barnett
Newman, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko. This previously
unpublished study is presented here for the first time alongside
related writings by Goodnough.
