The first comprehensive study of the work of one of the most significant abstract painters of his generation. This timely entry in the 'Contemporary Artists' series focuses on Mark Bradford, the Los Angeles-based artist best known for his large-scale abstract paintings that examine the class, race, and gender-based economies that structure urban society. His collages and installations, made of materials scavenged from the streets, have created a unique body of work that still stands as a strong response to the impromptu networks that emerge within a city. In this title, his life and work are explored as never before.
