Examines both the art-historical framework of Tomma Abts's painting
as well as its deep philosophical and psychological dimensions With
a rigorous approach and self-imposed limitations to both scale and
composition, Tomma Abts (b. 1967) has reinvigorated painterly
abstraction and its relevance within contemporary art. Using a
fixed canvas size and a vertical format, Abts deploys basic formal
elements such as arcs, circles, planes, and stripes to create
powerful works that are at once subtle and eccentric. This
extraordinary book, designed in collaboration with the artist
herself, is a substantial and deeply insightful treatment of her
career to date and features sixty works made over the past decade.
Essays not only contextualize Abts's work within an art-historical
framework of methods, process, and style, but also examine her
paintings' philosophical and psychological dimensions and their
embodiment of a creative process that transcends the specifics of
any particular work. Distributed for the Art Institute of Chicago
