In the garden
/ Jennifer Bartlett ; introduction by John Russell
- New York : Harry N. Abrams, Inc. , 1982
- 208 p. : illus. ; 26 cm
Jennifer Bartlett: In the Garden takes a focused look at the work she produced between 1980 and 1983, a series now referred to as her In the Garden pieces. The genesis of In the Garden was Bartletts year spent at a friends villa in Nice, France. Initially disappointed with the grey weather and the run-down house, she channeled her energy into working with what she had - a small backyard with a pool, a dense line of cypresses, and a small sculpture of a boy urinating into the water. The ultimate result was a group of almost 200 drawings of the same scene, in a dizzying range of styles and executed in ten mediums, from pointillism in colored pencil to impressionistic pastels and Matisse-like gouaches
