| book description |

Warren Rohrer was one of the premier abstract artists working in the Philadelphia region in the twentieth century. Raised within the Mennonite community of Lancaster County, Rohrer flouted familial expectations that he would become a farmer and a minister, as he discovered that painting was to be his calling. This book begins with Rohrer's paintings of the early 1970s, when he first adopted the grid as the framework for his art. In the early 1980s the grid-based substructure gave way to a more vividly colored approach, as Rohrer devised new ways to imbue paint on canvas with an inner luminosity. His late paintings treat the landscape as one to be read-like a book of primitive script- and link the natural landscape of his beginnings to his search for an authentic artistic language of his own. This catalog includes an essay by Susan Rosenberg, assistant curator of modern and contemporary art at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and an illustrated chronology of the artist's life. This publication will accompany the first museum survey of the mature work of Rohrer, which will be held from December 2002 to February 2003.
