# Wayne Thiebaud: Updated Edition - Hardcover

by **Kenneth Baker** (Author), **Nicholas Fox Weber** (Contribution by), **Karen Wilkin** (Contribution by)

**In remembrance of revered American artist Wayne Thiebaud who passed away in 2021 at the age of 101, the definitive monograph of Wayne Thiebaud's work is now available in a reformatted, accessibly priced edition, including his last paintings.**

This is the most comprehensive monograph to date on Wayne Thiebaud, with new works added, in a reformatted size. Spanning the length of his career from the 1950s to the present, the book has been made in close collaboration with the artist. Thiebaud selected the works himself, making the book an act of autobiography in a sense. At age 100, he looks back over his life and his work, rich with breakthroughs in painting and masterful individuality.

"Required reading for those who have a healthy appetite for provocative art." --_Bloomberg Business_

"This comprehensive monograph of more than 200 illustrations can literally be considered eye candy. American artist Wayne Thiebaud is famed for his brightly colored canvases of cakes, diner pies, pastries, ice cream cones, candy and brightly colored gumball machines. . . . Whether still lifes or landscapes, Thiebaud's paintings are akin to visual Prozac; you simply cannot be in a bad mood looking at them." --_Kansas City Magazine_

"While Thiebaud is best known for his heavily pigmented still lifes of cakes, pies, and candies, \[this\] book shows his broader range, from vibrant landscapes depicting highways and farmland to portraits of solitary figures. . . The texts examine Thiebaud's influences as well as his impact on the art world and the individual viewers of his work." --_Architectural Digest_
