Pat Steir: Paintings, 2018–2025

AA stunning new monograph dedicated to recent work by American artist Pat Steir, counted among the great innovators of contemporary painting.

A celebration of Pat Steir and her studio practice, this illustrated monograph focuses on her most recent work, bringing together paintings from the past eight years. Together with canvases from the artist’s exhibition Silent Secret Waterfalls (2018) at the Barnes Foundation and Color Wheel (2019), her immersive exhibition-in-the-round at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, the book also showcases work recently on view in gallery exhibitions in New York, West Hollywood, and Zurich.

A substantial plates section includes sumptuous reproductions and striking details, presented alongside installation views and new photography of Steir’s much admired New York studio. A newly commissioned text by award-winning Irish writer Colm Tóibín further illuminates the artist’s work. This beautiful new book marks major new milestones in Steir’s practice.
