Philip Guston's Nixon Drawings have never been more relevant

“So when the 1960s came along I was feeling split, schizophrenic. The war, what was happening to America, the brutality of the world. What kind of man am I, sitting at home, reading magazines, going into a frustrated fury about everything—and then going into my studio to adjust a red to a blue? I thought there must be some way I could do something about it.” – Philip Guston, 1977, from Philip Guston: Nixon Drawings 1971 & 1975, a staff favorite from our Fall 2017 list.
