Summary
"This retrospective monograph surveys the career of one of the leading artists of Southern California Minimalism. Tony DeLap has sought to express the purity of idea and form through his lifelong exploration of the realm between painting and sculpture. With meticulous construction, manipulation of form, and intellectual rigor, he has created objects of great clarity and beauty that inhabit the shadowy precinct of perfection. Here are the artist's drawings, monochromatic paintings, and monolithic sculptures, combining magic and Modernism, challenging our conceptions of abstraction and illusion. Tony DeLap includes two essays, color plates of the artist's most significant works, photographs of his public art commissions, biographical outline, and bibliography."--BOOK JACKET.
