Among the highlights are major paintings by some of the 20th century's best-known artists, including Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Rauschenberg, Gerhard Richter, Cy Twombly, and Andy Warhol. Also included in the gift are paintings, photographs, and sculptures by icons of contemporary art such as Damien Hirst, Jeff Koons, and Cindy Sherman. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This catalogue places the Edlis\/Neeson Collection in direct dialogue with works already in the Art Institute's holdings. An essay by James Rondeau situates the gift in the context of the museum's history and uses it to illustrate the growth and development of Pop Art. Most importantly, this book celebrates a transformative gift that allows the Art Institute to claim the most important collection of modern and contemporary art in any encyclopedic institution in the world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for the Art Institute of Chicago\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Rondeau\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300218737\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300218732\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Art Institute of Chicago\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/09\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.70h x 10.20w x 1.00d","brand":"James Rondeau","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46571027235071,"sku":"9780300218732","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e233e284-93ff-46af-a104-42d62d9ecae5.jpg?v=1738807032","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/edlisneeson-collection-james-rondeau-9780300218732","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
