"To Invent a Garden: The Life and Art of Adja Yunkers presents the artist's finest work, from his prints and pastels to his artist's books and abstract paintings. Yunkers experimented with a variety of media, taking some - notably woodcut and pastel - to unprecedented levels.". "This monograph, celebrating the centennial of Yunkers's birth and accompanying an exhibition organized for the Bayly Art Museum at the University of Virginia, restores him to his proper place in the pantheon of the Abstract Expressionist generation. Marek Bartelik's text recounts the story of Yunkers's life and career and analyzes key works from his oeuvre in the context of the artist's biography as well as of contemporaneous events in the spheres of politics, literature, and art."--BOOK JACKET.
