"Herskovic overviews American abstract expressionism with this hefty volume of plates. Beyond the names you'll immediately recognize (Pollack, De Kooning, Gorky, etc.) this alphabetically arranged set takes a fair and complete look, including commentary from the artists.... We like Kline's ideas on size and space and also when De Kooning says, "spiritually I am wherever my spirit allows me to be." American Abstract should be a fixture in libraries and the homes of the lovers of the form."
"Researchers will seek out this well designed selection."
