Beth Van Hoesen: Fauna & Flora (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780764968501)

Beth Van Hoesen: Fauna & Flora devotes two essays to the dutiful renderings of flowers and animals for which Van Hoesen is best known. Using curator, artist, and printer interviews alongside quotations from Van Hoesen's unpublished 1981 journal, Bob Hicks examines her work within the context of the contemporary art world and the history of figurative art. More than ninety prints and drawings illustrate Van Hoesen's mastery of color and line in her effort to intimately and meticulously document the tangible world as she saw it.
