This is the first publication to situate the individual contributions of Gaston Lachaise,
Robert Laurent, Elie Nadelman, and William Zorach into a compelling constellation
of artists with shared aesthetic and social concerns. Although each European-born,
American artist cultivated his own distinct style, their creative priorities were
all deeply rooted in quiet composition, synthetic approaches to anatomy, and architectural
unity of curves and volume. At a time when abstract forms were popular, Lachaise,
Laurent, Nadelman, and Zorach were all ultimately in favor of maintaining the integrity
of the human body to explore modernist styles. This handsome book underscores their
unrelenting search for a novel American visual tradition at the intersection of modernism,
historic visual culture, and contemporary popular imagery. Exhibition: Portland Museum
