Blue Territory Lib/E : A Meditation on the Life and Art of Joan Mitchell
Overview
A poetic immersion into the life and art of Joan Mitchell, the great American abstract expressionist painter
A contemporary of Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning, Joan Mitchell is not as well known as her male counterparts, not only because she was a woman but also because she spent most of her working life in France. Still, in 2013 Bloomberg listed Mitchell as the best-selling female artist of all time.
When asked to talk about her paintings, Joan Mitchell often responded, If I could say it in words, I'd write a book. Here is her book. At once unique and universal, Blue Territory is at its core an exploration of love and life, and what it means to love-and live-what you do. Meticulously researched and lyrically written, it will appeal to anyone interested in passionate engagement with the world.
