With more than one hundred seventy sculptures, drawings, and paintings, this is the firstcomprehensive view ofthe art of Renaissance man Arthur Carter. Successful in journalism and business, and trained as a classical musician, Carter is an accomplished artist in themodernisttradition. His abstract sculptures allude to human gestures and interactions. Though firmly grounded, they appear on the verge of flight. Though silent, they suggest song. His lyrical drawings and rigorous paintings, often studies for sculptures, are informed by a deep familiarity withthe artists he admires mostMondrian, Kandinsky, Arp, Bracque, and Picasso. Art historian and journalist Charles A. Riley II explores Carter's work, and Peter Kaplan, editor in chief of The New York Observer, contributes an illuminating biographical essay. Arthur Carter: Sculptures, Drawings, and Paintings presents the compelling artistic vision of a fascinating man.
