Newport Beach, CA: Newport Harbor Art Museum, 1984. First Edition. Oblong quarto. SIGNED in pencil to the title page by five of the six exhibited artists in the year of publication: Alfred Leslie, Grace Hartigan, Norman Bluhm, Al Held, and Michael Goldberg. A seminal catalogue, published on the occasion of the exhibition curated by Paul Schimmel at the New Port Harbor Museum in Newport Beach (Jun. 28 - Sep. 9, 1984); the exhibition then traveled to five additional museums through 1985. Schimmel here helped to re-contextualize the second generation of Abstract Expressionists; a group previously derided as derivative. Near fine copy in cloth boards, in illustrated jacket with minor creasing at corners, close to near fine.
