Johns, Jasper, 1930-, Printmaking, creating with the arts, Lithography, Exhibition catalogs
"Jasper Johns is a giant among painters and a printmaker without peer. His visual inventiveness and mastery of technique has set the standard for printmaking in the United States for seventeen years. The prodigious inventory of Johnsian surfaces seduces out interest, but all too often disguises a remarkable integration of technique, image, and meaning...Thus it is a privilege to be able to carry on the cataloguing of John's prints begun in 1970 with the exhibition held at the Philadelphia Museum of Art." -- from foreword by Richard S. Field. Includes selected bibliography (p. 125-7).
