Bücher von Martin Friedman

Martin Friedman retired as Director of the Walker Art Center in 1990. Friedman's friendship with Chuck Close goes back to 1969 when he acquired the now iconic Big Self-Portrait from Close for the Walker Art Center's collection. In 1980 the museum organized Close's first retrospective, which circulated nationally. In the mid-1990s Friedman began a series of discussions with Close, out of which this book grew. Since leaving the Walker Art Center, Friedman has served as a guest curator and advisor to a number of art museums.
