Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Galvanized by the political events of the Vietnam War, Nancy Spero dedicated herself for five years to creating a group of gouache paintings on paper, titled "The War Series." In these works, Spero not only expressed her rage at the violence and oppression of the war, but also introduced many of the images and themes that would continue to find their place in her work, and anticipated the post-modern aesthetic of fracture, dissonance, and collage. This volume is the first to analyze "The War Series" in depth, and its publication could not, unfortunately, be more timely.
Published on the occasion of an exhibition at Galerie Lelong, New York, Oct.-Nov. 2003 and Galerie Lelong, Paris, May-June 2004.
