Zusammenfassung:In the past few decades, several major exhibitions and scholarly publications have revisited the distinguished career of American painter Philip Guston (1913-1980), a fellow at the American Academy in Rome in 1949 and a resident there in 1960 and again in 1971. Once known as "Abstract Expressionism's odd-man out," a respected, but often misunderstood, member of the New York School, Guston is now celebrated for his magisterial paintings of the late 1960s and 1970s. Combining painterly virtuosity and narrative power, they cast a long shadow over the current landscape of contemporary art. In light of both a profusion of recent scholarship and the lasting currency of Guston's vision among artists working today, the time appears right to take stock of his career. To that end, the American Acaedmy in Rome organized a two-day conference with an international roster of critics and art historians to discuss the significance and critical fortunes of Guston's work, paying special attention to his life-long attentiveness to Italian art and culture. Emerging out of that symposium are the texts in 'Go Figure!'
