Samenvatting

The definitive collection of artist profiles by legendary journalist and New Yorker writer Calvin Tomkins, from the 1960s to 2019

When Calvin Tomkins joined The New Yorker as a staff writer in 1960, he did not plan to make art and living artists his main subjects. And yet, auspiciously for the magazine and its readers, Tomkins did just that. Since the 1960s, his profiles of contemporary artists, from Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg to Cindy Sherman and Mark Bradford, became the liveliest and most authoritative guide to the art of our time. These six volumes contain eighty-two of Tomkins’s profiles, dating from 1962 to 2019. Balancing insight and observation with wit, candor, and appreciation, Tomkins was a master of the profile – his indelible prose forming fascinating portraits, each a work of art in its own right.
