The only two-time winner of the prestigious Prix de West grand prizethe highest honor in the storied movement of art of the American WestGeorge Carlson creates works in the tradition of American masters Frederic Remington, Charles M. Russell, Thomas Moran, Albert Bierstadt, and the Taos School artists. No comprehensive book of George Carlsons work has ever before been published, making this magnificent volume an incomparable addition to the libraries of collectors and students of Western art and American landscape painting. Likened to the French and American Impressionists, who turned to natures beauty for relief from the industrialized world, Carlson is regarded as one of the most important American artists of his generation. His Prix de West triumphs have come in two different mediums: sculpture and, more recently, landscape painting. Recognized as one of Americas greatest bronze sculptors, Carlson is also a master at using pastels and oils. Carlsons tactile, textured landscape paintings are viewed as bold touchstones for a new movement taking hold in Western artand it is inspiring new generations of Realists and Impressionists. With nature as his muse, Carlson is an American treasure, and this book demonstrates how and why he is making his own impactful contribution to the canon of art history.
