Description: Balthus: A Biography by Nicholas Fox Weber Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This is the first full-scale biography of one of the most elusive and enigmatic painters of our time--the self-proclaimed Count Balthus Klossowski de Rola--whose brilliant, markedly sexualized portraits, especially of young girls, are among the most memorable images in contemporary art. The artists complexities are clarified and his genius understood in a book that derives its immediacy from the authors long and intense conversations with Balthus himself--who never previously consented to discuss his life and work with a biographer--as well as Webers interviews with the painters closest associates. First published by Knopf in 1999, now available for the first time from Dalkey Archive Press. Author Biography Nicholas Fox Weber is the Executive Director of the Josef and Anna Albers Foundation and has written extensively about each artist, as well as curating many major exhibitions and retrospectives of their work. Weber is a graduate of Columbia College and Yale University; he is the author of fourteen books including The Bauhaus Group, Le Corbusier, The Clarks of Cooperstown, Patron Saints, The Art of Babar and The Drawings of Josef Albers. Weber is currently at work on a biography of Piet Mondrian.
