"Two fine and highly perceptive critics of contemporary art - Nicholas Calas, author or Art in the Age of Rish (1968) and Professor of Fine Arts at Farleigh Dickinson University, and his wife, Elena Calas, who co-authored The Peggy Guggenheim Collection of Modern Art (1966) with Mr. Calas - have once again collaborated to produce this invaluable analysis of the chief styles and developments in American art of the 1960's. Here are detailed appraisals of the work of over fifty artist, and the author's discussions are beautifully supplemented with 194 illustrations. The overview of recent American art is indispensable reading for all students of the period." [back cover summary] Cover design by Marilyn Rey, cover painting by Arakawa. Includes index.
