Art Galleries, University of California Los Angeles (UCLA): 1954.  Foreword by William Carlos Williams.

Signed boldly by Sheeler and scarce thus, as Sheeler's signature is quite uncommon.

Few creases, wear to spine, some loss of color.  Overall, very good in wrappers.

Sheeler was a leading exponent of the innovative modernist style that arose after World War I in the United States and came to be known as Precisionism.  Artists associated with the movement fused a planar geometry developed from European Cubism with an interest in uniquely American subjects, often celebrating industry and a Machine Age aesthetic. Sheeler worked across artistic mediums and developed a versatile, complex practice in which his vision was expressed with equal artistic command and intellectual rigor, masterfully devising compositions of modern, geometric form from America’s burgeoning urban and industrial landscapes.
