Description
by John Sonsini (Artist), David Pagel (Text by (Art/Photo Books))
An intimate monograph studying John Sonsini's practice through David Pagel's thoughtful LA Times reviews about his work.
When art critic David Pagel realized he had written five reviews about John Sonsini over the past thirty years, this book project was born. Even though he had been covering the work of the Los Angeles-based painter for three decades, they had never met until they began collaborating on this project. The unique, intimate compilation brings together an extensive essay by Pagel--including facsimile reproductions of the original five articles--along with illustrations, plates, and archival pieces that cover Sonsini's artistic trajectory, from early works to his most recent watercolors and large-scale commissions. Broad Reminders provides a rambling, joyful, engaging look into the world of art and artists, critics, and creators.
