Book Synopsis Kienholz by : Edward Kienholz
Book excerpt: Published on the occasion of a retrospective exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, this work is a monograph of the work of Edward Kienholz and his wife and partner, Nancy Reddin Kienholz. Starting in 1954, Edward Kienholz worked against the grain of formal abstract art, gradually forsaking painting in favour of assemblage techniques. In these works, Kienholz addressed issues of war, abortion, prostitution, government indifference and human cruelty.
