Art Historian Dore Ashton's Notes on "Giacometti: Sculpture-Paintings-Drawings from 1956 to 1958 | May 6 to 31, 1958"
A fascinating piece of ephemera at the intersection of market and academia. Cooper Union art history professor and New York Times art critic Dore Ashton visited Giacometti: Sculpture-Paintings-Drawings from 1956 to 1958 at the Pierre Matisse Gallery, an exhibition that marked the increasing output of two-dimensional works by the prolific sculptor. That day she took extensive notes in pencil right on the exhibition announcement. Two months later, her essay was published in Art & Architecture Vol. 75, No. 7. Light rubbing and soiling. A most interesting and singular item.
