Meanings of Abstract Art: Between Nature and Theory

This book explores the relation of abstract art to nature. It covers three categories of essays: classical modernism (Mondrian, Malevich, Kandinsky, Arp, early American abstraction); post-war abstraction (Pollock, Still, Newman, Smithson, Noguchi, Arte Povera, Michaux, postmodern developments); and the broader historical and philosophical scope.
