A beautiful new edition of the classic work with a multitude of fans, including Zadie Smith and Rachel Kushner, featuring a new introduction by Celia Paul.
The famous American artist Anne Truitt kept this illuminating and inspirational journal between 1974-8, driven by the desire to understand the forces that shaped her art and life. She recalls her childhood on the eastern shore of Maryland, her career shift from psychology to art, and her journey into sculpture that would 'liberate color in three dimensions.'
She reflects on the generous advice of other artists, tracks the journey of her own daughters into motherhood, contemplates criticism and solitude, and struggles to express her vision. As a work that resonates with truth, inspires, and reveals, Anne Truitt guides herself – and her readers – through a life where household activities and the needs of children and friends constantly contrast with the world of color and abstract geometry in which she seeks inspiration for her art.
With beautiful writing, Daybook offers a rare glimpse into the thinking of a creative mind, showcasing an exceptional artist whose ideas illuminate generously and succinctly the process of art.
