Popped Art
Editorial Reviews Book Description To accompany the full-scale exhibtion catalogue for Elizabeth Murray's retrospective at The Museum of Modern Art in October 2005, the Museum is also producing a matching artist's book. Since Murray's works often operate in three dimensions, this book will contain two pop-ups, one derived from an existing painting, the other from a drawing created especially for the book. Both pop-ups are to be designed by the accomplished paper engineer Bruce Foster in collaboration with the artist. The book will also show a selection of the preperatory sketches and other drawings that Murray makes to ceate these works. Robert Storr, organizer of the Murray retrospective, will contribute an introduction. Introduction by Robert Storr. Hardcover, 9.5 x 11 in./32 pgs / Illustrated throughout. From the Publisher From "Stirring Up a Commotion on Canvas" by Michael Kimmelman, The New York Times Organized by Robert Storr, with an ancillary display of Ms. Murray's exquisite prints and a two-volume catalogue that includes a clever (not too expensive) pop-up book, bespeaking her playful side, her show is a meaty, open-hearted, eye-popping tribute to a beloved painter's painter.
