  abstract: "American painter, sculptor, and print maker Donald Sultan rose to prominence in the electrified atmosphere of New York's downtown art renaissance in the late 1970S and 1980s. Before the use of graffiti and post-modern figuration appeared in the galleries and art magazines, Sultan's simple iconography and complex technique of gouged, spackled, and painted tar-encrusted grids of linoleum tiles attached to Masonite captured immediate and enthusiastic attention. The works were abstract, erotic, and powerful." "Donald Sultan: The Theater of the Object is the first comprehensive monograph of the artist's distinguished 30-year career. Through the years, Sultan has become a master printmaker as well as a painter and draftsman. This book provides important examples of each medium and is divided into his abiding preoccupations with the industrial, artificial, and natural worlds, and offers insightful comparisons of the marriage of method and image. In 1987 Sultan told art critic Barbara Rose that his mission as an artist was "to haul painting into the 21st century." Now, almost a decade into that century, it is a perfect moment to review his progress. Today, Sultan's work can be found in more than fifty museums worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, The Art Institute of Chicago, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and the Tate Modern in London. Influenced by artists from Sasetta to Manet, Weston to Warhol, Sultan uses architectonic painting structures as the vehicle for advancing his mission."--BOOK JACKET.
