 The Imagery of Chess Revisited
Introduction by Ingrid Schaffner. Edited by Larry List. George Braziller Publishers, 2005. Published on the occasion of the exhibition, October 21, 2005 - March 5, 2006. The catalog recovers a singular moment in art history. A "who's who" of famous European expatriate artists and soon-to-be-famous American Modernists were invited to redesign the standard chess set or explore chess imagery in bold, new ways. The catalog features new color photographs as well as rarely seen archival photographs.
