A Painter of Darkness: Leon Golub and Our Times
Harmondsworth Penguin Books 1992 0140105689 / 9780140105681 First paperback edition Trade Paperback Very Good
271 pp., illus.; 23 cm. Tight, clean copy. Remainder mark/tail edge. Married to feminist artist Nancy Spero, Leon Golub emerged as a figurative painter in Chicago in the mid-1950s and a critic of Abstract Expressionism, painting mythological subjects. The Noam Chomsky of the artworld, Golub was a vocal critic of the Vietnam War in the sixties. He re-emerged within the context of Neo-Expressionism in the 1980s, with his large-scale paintings--on unstretched canvas--of (American-sponsored) death squads in Latin America, scenes of brutality in South Africa, and portraits of third world dictators.
