Americans in Paris: Artists Working in Postwar France, 1946-1962 delves into the various circles of artists who lived in France following World War II. Featuring new scholarship and illuminating essays, this groundbreaking volume illustrates many of the paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, photos, and films produced during these fertile years. Americans in Paris introduces the story of the American creative community that inhabited the City of Light following World War II. Proposing Paris as decisive for the development of postwar American art, this volume investigates the academies where many of these artists studied, the spaces where their work was exhibited, the aesthetic discourses that animated their conversations, their interactions with European artists, and the overarching issue of what it meant to be an American abroad.
Debra Bricker Balken is a curator, scholar, and writer who has assembled numerous museum exhibitions relating to American modernism and contemporary art. She recently completed the biography Harold Rosenberg: A Critic' s Life (University of Chicago Press, 2021) and the volume Arthur Dove: A Catalogue Raisonne of Paintings and Things (Yale University Press, 2021).
