Alex Katz: Katz Katz
Edited by Enzo Cucchi. Text by Vincent Katz.
Alex Katz: Katz Katz is a collaboration between three artists. Edited by Italian painter Enzo Cucchi (born 1949), it gathers drawings by Alex Katz (born 1927) and pairs them words by the artist’s son, the poet, curator and critic Vincent Katz (born 1960).
All the drawings included in this volume are risograph prints of original exercises and preparatory sketches for paintings, revealing the processes by which Alex Katz arrives at his paintings. These drawings are bookended by Cucchi’s woodcuts showing the two artists, father and son; at the back are two poems by Vincent Katz, one of which is dedicated to Cucchi.
Gorgeously produced and intimate in design, Katz Katz celebrates the affectionate conversations between the two artists.
