This latest volume in the MoMA Artist Series guides readers through ten of de Koonings most memorable achievements, chosen fromThe Museum of Modern Arts substantial collection of his work, including paintings and drawings in hisWoman series which famously introduced a savage figuration into Abstract Expressionism and other important works produced throughout his career.
