For the first time, she has set all of her scenes in the darkness of evening, creating a consistent chromatic background that intensifies her always-vibrant colors. These oils of moons, trees, birds, flowers and deer constitute the latest chapter in her systematic catalog of what she terms \"revisitations,\" each of which is also a reinvention of her subject matter. In this body of work, and across her practice, figuration morphs into kaleidoscopic abstraction and back again, each canvas resisting easy categorization in favor of pure feeling. In addition to a lush plate section, this volume features an intimate conversation between the artist and curator Jay Sanders, an expansive art-historical essay by Richard Kalina and poems written and collected in dedication to Craven by Susan Howe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ann Craven\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Karma, New York\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/07\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 124\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.7lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.94h x 11.18w x 0.79d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781961883161","brand":"Karma, New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43397966921865,"sku":"9781961883161","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_6a850fd8-de31-4f03-bce2-5357fae19dd8.jpg?v=1740471838","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/ann-craven-night-9781961883161","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
