Summary of Impact of Modern Paints
Explored in this fascinating account is the decisive role played by the new acrylics, housepaints, and other modern blends in the work of ten influential artists: Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, David Hockney, Bridget Riley, Frank Stella, Morris Louis, Peter Blake, Patrick Caulfield, Richard Hamilton, and John Hoyland. While often undervalued when considering an artist's work, the type of paint used can strongly affect an image's finished look. Detailed interviews with the painters or their assistants reveal how the artists' choices of modern paint engendered new techniques that contributed distinctive qualities to their work.Jo Crook and Tom Learner are painting conservators in the Conservation Department of London's distinguished Tate Gallery.
