His practice was defined by an intense, ceaseless experimentation with process and technique, drawing in unconventional tools and materials to create a profoundly original body of work. Though Whitten initially aligned with the New York circle of Abstract Expressionists active in the 1960s, he gradually distanced his work from the movement's aesthetic philosophy and formal concerns, focusing more intensely on the experimental aspects of process and technique that came to define his practice, arriving at a nuanced language of painting that hovers between mechanical automation and deeply personal expression. Throughout his career, Whitten concerned himself with the materials of painting and the relationship of artworks to their inspirations. This richly illustrated guide to the artist's studio practice reveals the development of Whitten's pioneering work and the behind-the-scenes of his process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 7.3 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 29, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47176768618745,"sku":"9783907493045","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/fQbKuLkLHa9783907493045.webp?v=1767686659","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/in-the-studio-jack-whitten-hardcover","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
