ISBN: 9780944110669 / Angielski / Twarda / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Rather, Fred Orton self-consciously constructs a "Jasper Johns" whose work is introduced and explained in three chapters, each of which addresses a specific picture or sculpture like Flag, Painted Bronze (Savarin) and Untitled 1992....
