| book description |

A new, fully transcribed edition of the celebrated collection of Jack Whitten’s wide-ranging, perceptive writings When it was published in 2018, Notes from the Woodshed marked the first time that a book had been devoted to the writings of pioneering American artist Jack Whitten. This new edition of the celebrated publication now presents a fully transcribed collection of Whitten’s insightful, searching writings alongside selected interviews and other key texts, edited by art historian Katy Siegel. Widely renowned for his experimental approach to painting, Whitten often turned to writing as a way to investigate, understand, and grapple with his practice and his milieu. Taking its title from the heading that Whitten scrawled across many of his texts—a term borrowed from the world of jazz that means ‘to practice in private’— Notes from the Woodshed is a fascinating, intimate insight into an artist at work.
