Published for DC Moore Gallery’s memorial exhibition, George Tooker: Reality Recurs as a Dream (2011) features paintings from all periods of Tooker’s long career. Complementing these visually striking images are four perspectives by curators, artists, critics, and scholars, including an overview of Tooker’s career, an interview with the artist that was first published in 1957, an appreciation by his good friend and fellow artist, Paul Cadmus, written in 1997, and excerpts from a lively panel discussion during the exhibition that illuminate aspects of the artist’s legacy and his penetrating, mystical, and mysterious artistic vision.
