Anne Truitt Libros
Anne Truitt fue una artista visual cuyo trabajo investigó las relaciones de color y las cualidades lineales simples. Los críticos a menudo la asociaron con el Minimalismo y los artistas del Washington Color Field, aunque ella se resistió a las clasificaciones reductivas. Junto con su escultura y pintura, Truitt también fue una reconocida autora de memorias y una maestra. Sus piezas son valoradas por su simplicidad y profunda exploración de las conexiones visuales.

BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY: FILM, TELEVISION, MUSIC, THEATRE. Renowned American artist Anne Truitt kept this illuminating and inspiring journal over a period of seven years, determined to come to terms with the forces that shaped her art and life. Within its beautifully written pages, you will come to know a woman whose range of sensitivity-moral, intellectual, sensual, emotional, and spiritual-is remarkably broad. She recalls her childhood on the eastern shore of Maryland, her career change from psychology to art, and her path to making sculptures so finely painted that they would "set colour free in three dimensions." She reflects on the generous advice of other artists, watches her own daughter's journey into motherhood, meditates on criticism and solitude, and struggles to express her vision.
