About this product

Product Information

This is the first comprehensive biography of artist Ted DeGrazia (1909-1982), who was known as much for his colorful paintings of the Southwest and Mexico as his eccentric personality. De Grazia: The Man and the Myths mines private archival sources, memoirs, and interviews to draw an intriguing new portrait of this western legend.

"Watching De Grazia at work is an amazing experience. The speed with which a painting blooms before your eyes is a mystery to anyone not familiar with the spontaneity and speed with which genius works."-Loda Mae Davis, Trumpeteer, "An entertaining profile of a mischievous man who built a wall of privacy around himself while struggling for approval and widespread recognition of his work." --Phoenix Magazine, "An entertaining profile of a mischievous man who built a wall of privacy around himself while struggling for approval and widespread recognition of his work." --Phoenix Magazine "A well-sourced and meticulously documented study of an iconoclast around whom rumors swirled (some of which he started himself."-- Southwest Books of the Year "Diligently researched, this book is a wonderful compendium of De Grazia's life from birth to grave, with a wealth of fantastic stories depicting the evolution of the artist from a struggling University of Arizona student to a multimillionaire."-- Zócalo Magazine "Entertaining and delightful to read."--Joseph Wilder, director of the Southwest Center at the University of Arizona and editor of Journal of the Southwest "De Grazia's protest [burning his paintings because of opposition to federal inheritance taxes] was all the more surprising in that, while he is widely considered an eccentric genius, he has never been known as a political person."--Edwin McDowell, The Wall Street Journal "Brilliant unorthodox colors, graceful composition alive with imagination, originality--not flamboyant but subtle--these qualities distinguished De Grazia's art."-- Arizona Highways "Watching De Grazia at work is an amazing experience.
