MASTERWORKS MXW DEFINING NEW CONTEMPORARY NARRATIVE HC

Curator and author Nathan Spoor presents Masterworks (MXW), a unique collection of large-scale paintings chosen specifically for the exhibition at the Long Beach Museum of Art. The concept focuses on 14 seasoned painters consistently dedicated to conquering new ground for the last decade or more. While the exhibition seeks to "define the new contemporary narrative" the book goes even further, featuring never before published interviews, artwork and photographs of artists in their studios. Featured artists include: Esao Andrews, Sean Cheetham, Natalia Fabia, Alex Gross, James Jean, Josh Keyes, Mario Martinez, Jeff McMillan, Greg Simkins, Nathan Spoor, Nicola Verlato, Eric White, Aron Wiesenfeld and Martin Wittfooth.
