Stephen Pace

by Martica Sawin

"The life and artistic career of Stephen Pace has been both rich and varied - from his boyhood on farms in Indiana and Missouri, through the Normandy landings in WW II and study on the G.I. Bill in Mexico, France, and New York, to the forceful abstract expressionist canvases he painted as a highly visible member of the New York school, and finally to the luminous representational paintings of recent decades." "This illustrated monograph displays Pace's radiant color and agile capacity to distill the essence of a subject in succinct and telling strokes. Ninety-three color plates and forty-five black and white reproductions of drawings, prints, and photographs are included."--BOOK JACKET.
