About this book

Art in the San Francisco Bay Area, 1945-1980: An Illustrated History by Thomas Albright provides a comprehensive exploration of the postwar art movement in one of America's most vibrant cultural hubs. Spanning over three decades, this book delves into the unique contributions of the San Francisco Bay Area to the nation's artistic heritage, covering the evolution of its art scene, its rise to prominence, and its eventual decline in relation to New York's dominance in the 1960s. Originally sparked by a series of lectures Albright gave at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 1974, the book offers a rich narrative that blends personal insight with rigorous research. Albright, a longtime art critic for the San Francisco Chronicle, brings his extensive experience and insider perspective to the task of documenting a previously unexamined period in American art history. The book's beautifully illustrated pages not only capture the artistic essence of the region but also shine a light on the creative figures and movements that shaped the Bay Area's distinctive artistic voice. This invaluable volume serves as both a historical record and an engaging guide for anyone interested in the evolution of modern art in the San Francisco Bay Area. This title was originally published in 1985.
