Daniel Brush

This book offers a structured exploration of the work of American artist Daniel Brush (1947–2022), a polymath who was simultaneously a painter, sculptor, poet-goldsmith, and jeweller. His lifelong quest to transmit light through line was deeply inspired by Claude Monet’s painterly depictions of light. Carly Lapidus’s exclusive photographs of Brush’s New York studio document how his life and creations were intimately intertwined. Finally, photographs by Benjamin Chelly bring us even closer to his art, alternating between macroscopic and microscopic perspectives. This unique visual journey is a tribute to one of the most fascinating artists of the twentieth century.
