James Havard is a contemporary artist who is considered a pioneer of the 'abstract illusionist' school, whose varied techniques include collage, squeezing paint directly from the tube, and especially the use of prehistoric Native American culture and art. Havard himself is often influenced by American Indian and African tribal cultures and cave paintings, which have imbued his work with sensitivity and passion. "James Havard" is the first extensive monograph of the works of this influential artist. It includes an in-depth examination of his artistic processes and development, an illustrated chronology and complete documentation of his career. 114 colour plates

This volume is the first full-length examination of the life and art of James Surls, one of America s most important living sculptors and one of the most distinctive creative forces on the international art scene in the last several decades. In a seminal essay, art historian Mark Thistlethwaite discusses Surls s personal history, beginning in East Texas and continuing today in the Colorado meadows. He describes the creation of Surls s visual language of eyes, knives, diamonds, and flowers and the influences that have shaped him as an artist. In addition, the volume contains an interview with the artist, a tribute by his wife, Charmaine Locke, an artist herself, and commentary by Mark A. Roglan, curator of the exhibition "In the Meadows: Recent Sculpture, Drawings, and Prints of James Surls "(January 24-April 20, 2003). Sixty-two black-and-white and ninety-eight color illustrations, including images of early works, are featured in this catalogue, which showcases more than sixty pieces forming the core of the Meadows Museum exhibition."
