With Friends
Six Magic Realists, 1940–1965
Robert Cozzolino


This exhibition catalog focuses on the art and friendships of the American artists Gertrude Abercrombie (1909–1977), Sylvia Fein (b. 1919), Marshall Glasier (1902–1988), Dudley Huppler (1917–1988), Karl Priebe (1914–1976), and John Wilde (b. 1919). In this first intensive study, Cozzolino provides insight into a figurative branch of postwar American modernism that has been often neglected in favor of abstract expressionism.

Robert Cozzolino is assistant curator at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.

 

cover of this catalog is illustrated with artwork by one of the featured artists. The illustration shows several bored everyday people standing in an undefined room with a nude woman. Everyone is bored.
