Just a quick note to say I received the book today. I am very impressed with the quality of its production and the writing is satisfactorily informative. Indeed the reproductions of the works are excellent. This is the first source on Mark Tobey I have read where the link with the American abstract expressionists, particularly Pollock, is made with authority. John Lincoln |

What a wonderful book you curated. I received it today and absorbed it eagerly, and with great pleasure. I found the volume to be a most perfect distillation of just the information about Mark Tobey which I sought in extended research and other publications. I wish you a happy and prosperous new year and again thank you for your very beautiful book, which I will treasure – it's exceptional quality, as both a physical product and a cerebral compilation, are impressive.

I have been meaning to let you know that the book arrived safely, and I am very pleased to have it — a beautiful, high quality production and an extensive coverage. The essays too are very helpful and much the information is new to me. I particularly liked your formulation (p. 24) of 'abstraction' in relation to Tobey, but also in terms of Abstract Art generally (always a difficult term). I was also fascinated by your and Bärmann's analysis of the politics around Tobey's status in the US, with particular reference to Greenberg. In addition to the Cold War political developments, I also felt that the west-coast artists have been consistently marginalised (at least until recent decades), not only Tobey, but Morris Graves and Richard |
