Luscious reproductions of more than 50 of Twomblys paintings, drawings and littleknown sculptures, along with classical works of art, tell the story of an American abstractionists poetical dialogue with antiquityCy Twomblys first visit to Italy as a young man ignited a lifelong passion for classical culture that is everywhere present in his art. Painted canvases, works on paper and smallscale sculptures reveal the historical soul of Twomblys abstract compositions. Taking on myths and heroes as personal guides, he created a psychologically complex dialogue with the visual and literary art of antiquity.This sumptuously illustrated publication reproduces a carefully chosen selection of the artists paintings, drawings and sculptures alongside works of classical antiquity, including a number from his personal collection. Illuminating essays by leading scholars and writers, including Anne Carson, Jennifer R. Gross, Brooke Holmes and Mary Jacobus, explore the often enigmatic engagement of Twomblys art with the world of the past.Cy Twombly (19282011) was born in Lexington, Virginia, and lived and worked in New York in the early 1950s and at Black Mountain College in North Carolina. After traveling around North Africa, Spain and Italy, he settled in Rome, where he remained for the rest of his life.
