Published on the occasion of an exhibition of the same name that showed at the Campbell-Thiebaud Gallery in San Francisco. Wayne Thiebaud (1920-2021) was an American artist. He is perhaps best-known for his colorful paintings of still-lifes that depict everyday objects such as cakes, pies, and gumball machines. However, this show featured the cityscape paintings Thiebaud had made over the past ten years at the time of the catalog's publication. The exhibition also featured Thiebaud's recent works on paper made with charcoal, pastel, watercolor, and gouache. Includes a printed dialog between Thiebaud and Richard Wollheim. Acquired from the private library of photorealist, Robert Bechtle and art historian, Whitney Chadwick. Heavy and oversized items may require additional shipping.
