Welded sculpture of the twentieth century

"This first-ever study of welded sculpture begins with its historical sources and methodology and provides extensive coverage of the giants of the medium - Picasso, Gonzalez, Smith, and Caro - and their adoption of an industrial process for aesthetic purposes. It goes on to survey the entire twentieth century, some one hundred artists from all over the world.". "With nearly two hundred illustrations, a glossary, and a comprehensive bibliography, Welded Sculpture of the Twentieth Century is an indispensable reference for anyone interested in modern art. It is published in conjunction with a major exhibition held at the Neuberger Museum of Art, State University of New York, Purchase."--BOOK JACKET.
