The American Vanguard Stack

Used/Vintage Book Set – Limited Availability

This curated stack gathers four titles that track a pivotal shift in American art — from surface to psyche, from depiction to embodiment. Together, these books tell the story beneath the story of abstraction.

Before the movement had a name, these artists were already redefining what a canvas could hold.

  • Arshile Gorky gave the movement its grief.

  • Stuart Davis gave it jazz tempo.

  • Willem de Kooning made it seductive.

  • Philip Guston set it all on fire.

This stack is for collectors, curators, and those building libraries that think in tension, and historical fracture.

Included Titles:
• Arshile Gorky: Three Decades of Drawing
• Arshile Gorky, 1904–1948 (MUVE)
• Stuart Davis: American Painter
• De Kooning: The Way of Living by Judith Zilczer
• Philip Guston: Retrospective (Thames & Hudson / Fort Worth Modern, 2003)

Please note: These are vintage and used books. Some may have shelf wear, bent corners, or highlighting — all part of their lived history.

All sales are final.
For collector inquiries or curatorial notes, feel free to reach out directly.
