20th-century American sculpture in the White House garden

About This Book

"Eight exhibitions in the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden of the White House, each selected by a museum in a different region of the country, have showcased American sculpture of the twentieth century." "In this volume, every piece is reproduced in full color, creating an overview of the subject. It includes artists working in many styles and coming from many ethnic backgrounds.". "David Finn, photographer and sculpture authority, photographed each exhibition. Finn describes his experiences photographing in the Garden, offering perceptive comments on such subjects as how a piece looks in different light and the way different works look in the same location."--BOOK JACKET.
