Summary note
Arshile Gorky emigrated from Armenia to the United States in 1920 where he established himself as one of the greatest painters of that period. Although his life was cut short by his suicide in 1948, the body of work he left behind secured his reputation as one of the greatest surrealist painters. This book tells his story.
