Description

"The Impact of Modern Paints examines the role that the latest paints have played in the work of ten influential artists from Britain and the United States - Peter Blake, Patrick Caulfield, Richard Hamilton, David Hockney, John Hoyland, Roy Lichtenstein, Morris Louis, Bridget Riley, Frank Stella, and Andy Warhol. The artists' painting careers from around 1960 onward are recounted through detailed interviews with them or their studio assistants. The authors have added evidence from documentary sources, and from extensive scientific analysis of the works themselves, to show how the latest paints and experimental techniques have brought special qualities to the work of modern painters."--BOOK JACKET.
