- Summary:
- Adventures in Art is a magisterial volume that documents the story of Pace Gallery in New York. One of the most important 20th-century American galleries, the history of Pace is virtually the history post-war America art, and this book, with over 700 color images and nearly 700 pages, shows why. Arne Glimcher, founder of Pace Gallery, has not only been adept at spotting trends in art, but in encouraging new visions, and defining movements. Among the artists with whom he's had a close and enduring relationship are Robert Irwin, Louise Nevelson, Chuck Close, Donald Judd, Jean Dubuffet, and many others whose exhibitions are documented in Adventures in Art. The book includes chronological lists of the exhibitions and publications that have defined Pace Gallery since the early 1960s, and excerpts from reviews and catalogs by such prominent writers as Hilton Kramer, Lawrence Alloway, Rosalind Krauss, Peter Schjeldahl, Robert Rosenblum, and Calvin Tomkins.
