His foremost commitment was to the pioneering painters of the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, notably Paul C zanne and Henri Matisse. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe exhibitions Gowing curated at Tate, London, and the Museum of Modern Art, New York famously helped to mould and reshape public perceptions. Characterised by a desire to instruct and encourage, his writing reflects a highly successful career as a curator and teacher. Introduced by the editor Sarah Whitfield, four decades of writing are brought together for the first time in this volume.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ridinghouse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/19\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781905464654\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 6.00w x 1.20d","brand":"Sarah Whitfield","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38014769660085,"sku":"9781905464654","price":30.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_a8e896ab-2353-4b16-b683-b61de39e65e4.jpg?v=1609150085","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/lawrence-gowing-selected-writings-on-art-9781905464654","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
