This beautifully produced volume celebrates the life and career of Adaline Kent (1900 1957), a member of one of the Bay Area s most productive and innovative midcentury artistic groups. Kent is linked to modernist artists Ruth Asawa, Constantin Brancus?i, Jean Arp, Isamu Noguchi, and Clyord Still. Texts by a diverse range of scholars cover such subjects as infinity and movement in Kent s work; the influence of nature; setting her work in the context of the organic abstractions of other American midcentury artists such as Noguchi, Arshile Gorky, and Roberto Matta; and the artistic milieu at the San Francisco Art Institute that surrounded Kent and her husband, artist Bob Howard.
