Robert Motherwell: Early Collages Details
Review This admirable catalogue is essential for understanding Motherwell's output, a testament to his achievements and a great pleasure to consult or even just browse. (Alexander Adams The Art Newspaper)Although somewhat younger (and Waspier) than the Abstract Expressionists he assiocate with, Robert Motherwell was a noted figure of the New York School (a term that he, in fact, coined). The collages he created throughout his career were particularly, beautiful and elegant [...]. (Howard Halle Time Out New York)Four writers examine Motherwell's fervent advocacy of collage as "the greatest of our discoveries", with illustrations of some 60 of the artist's works from the 1940s and early '50s.

Reviews
Incredibly disappointing. And I say that as a huge fan of Motherwell's work in general and his collages specifically. The work in this book is simply not that interesting, the dregs of his oeuvre it seems. I can't even say that I gain from the developmental perspective of him as a growing artist. The only redeeming portion of this book are the bits about paper conservation and the fading of Motherwell's materials. If you dig paper conservation, there are lots of other books to refer to that are far better. As for Motherwell, I can't imagine he would have approved of this collection. It's lame.
