Jules Olitski, 100 Paintings, 100 Years: A Centennial Retrospective

This definitive publication examines Jules Olitski's seven-decade career through one hundred pivotal works selected to commemorate the centenary of his birth. It traces the artist's evolving relationship to materiality and chromatic intensity across several distinct phases: from the densely impastoed Matter Paintings of the 1950s through the Spray paintings that established his centrality to Color Field discourse, to late works that synthesize abstract and landscape elements. The catalogue follows Olitski's transformation from Ukrainian émigré to one of post-war American painting's most innovative practitioners.
