Tracing Robert Bechtle'S Career From His Earliest Paintings Of The 1960S To The Present Day, This Is The Definitive Book On One Of The Founders And Foremost Practitioners Of American Photorealism. Created In Close Collaboration With The Artist, Robert Bechtle Will Accompany The Distinguished Painter'S First Retrospective Exhibition. Lavish Plates Feature Reproductions Of Approximately Ninety Of Bechtle'S Most Significant Artworks, From Largescale Oil Paintings To Intimate Watercolors And Drawings. These Magnificent Illustrations Portray The Range Of The San Franciscobased Painter'S Iconic Imagery Of Californiathe Rows Of Palm Trees, Stucco Houses, And The Ubiquitous Automobiles That Spurred Suburban Expansionas Well As His Lesserknown But Equally Compelling Family Scenes And Stark Interiors. Bechtle'S Preference For Wide, Empty Spaces; His Flat, Sunbleached Palette; And His Detached Mode Of Recording Random Details Impart A Singular Sense Of Alienation To His Subjects. His Deadpan Paintings Capture The Essence Of The Postwar American Experience, In Which California Often Serves As The Testing Ground For The Realization Of National Dreams.
