Lasker employs the familiar tools of representational painting--figure and ground, space and perspective--to destabilize its dividing line with abstraction. In keeping with Lasker's line of formal inquiry, this compact volume presents an unlikely yet productive pairing: a selection of the artist's large canvases intermingled with the Frye Art Museum's collection of late 19th- and early 20th-century paintings. Embedded within the museum's salon, Lasker's compositions open unexpected conversations across time, style and painterly intent. The publication includes photographs of the exhibition, as well as a foreword by collector Judy Greenstein, an essay by director Jamilee Lacy that discusses the exhibition in the context of Lasker's overall practice, and an interview between the artist and Lacy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Marquand Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/24\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781646570478\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.00w x 0.20d","brand":"Jonathan Lasker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52507658322101,"sku":"9781646570478","price":12.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_0d7c1b87-0d2f-4423-b328-c6088440b1cb.jpg?v=1778566419","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/frye-salon-jonathan-lasker-9781646570478","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
