Initially influenced by the work of the abstract expressionists, Frank Stella subsequently rejected the movement in favour of more radical forms. In 1960 Stella presented his first series of aluminium paintings at Leo Castelli, causing the first upset in a long history of experiments that saw him tackling minimalism, post-painterly abstraction, and public art. This book examines Stella's life and career in the context of the contemporary art world, featuring works from his recent blockbuster museum exhibitions as well as landmark works from throughout his career.

Reviews for Frank Stella

The entire dialectic of modernist painting from Manet to present is at play in Stella's work. -Michael Fried Stella is a pivotal figure in American art, acting as a hinge between the reductive vocabulary of late modernism and the modular, mechanistic language of minimalism. -Frieze For years Stella was as unstoppable as an icebreaker in his painterly progress, churning out series after series, building on and advancing not only his art but painting. -Jerry Saltz
