"My later paintings encapsulate all the early paintings within them," Ellsworth Kelly (1923-2015) once observed. These final paintings, created in the months leading up to his passing in December 2015, further develop the non-compositional strategies he pioneered in the late 1940s and continued throughout his life. These strategies include monochrome paintings, shaped canvases, and joined panels. The book also features 16 photographs by Jack Shear of Kelly's studio as he left it on his final day of painting—a poignant record of his seven-decade pursuit of a singular artistic vision.
