{"product_id":"william-l-hawkins-an-imaginative-geography","title":"William L. Hawkins: An Imaginative Geography","description":"The first large-scale survey of the important self-taught artist's work in 20 years, presenting  approximately sixty of Hawkins's lively paintings, drawings, and sculpture.\n\nAlthough he has long held a place in the forefront of twentieth-century self-taught  artists, the Ohio painter William Lawrence Hawkins has recently received less than his  fair share of attention. This monograph will introduce Hawkins's exuberant paintings  to a wider audience at a time when more and more general museums are recognizing  the powerful appeal of America's self-taught artists. While focusing on the artist's most  aesthetically successful, confident, and characteristic works, the book will bring special  attention to his use of space, his collage practice, and his work in series, of which his  nine  Last Suppers  is perhaps the most extensive example.\n\nDrawn from important public and private collections across the United States, the  monograph will include approximately fifty of Hawkins's most important paintings,  both well-known pieces and others rarely seen and it will cover all of Hawkins's favorite  subject matter, including cityscapes, landscapes, exotic places, animals, current events,  historic scenes, and religious scenes. It will also include a very rare assembled sculpture  and a selection of his large body of drawings.","brand":"Skira Editore S.p.A","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42664637464612,"sku":"9788857236346","price":90.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/9734\/0196\/files\/9788857236346.jpg?v=1777358128","url":"https:\/\/thamesandhudson.com.au\/products\/william-l-hawkins-an-imaginative-geography","provider":"Thames \u0026 Hudson Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
