Beskrivning

The first full-career survey of an American artist redefining contemporary landscape painting through a powerful blend of abstraction, realism, memory, and environmental experience.This landmark volume offers the most comprehensive look yet at Eric Aho (b. 1966), widely recognized as one of today’s leading painters of landscape and the natural world. Tracing four decades of artistic evolution, the book follows Aho from his luminous, enigmatic Ice Cuts—geometric openings carved into frozen ponds—to his visceral Fire Paintings, which explore destruction, renewal, and the shifting forces of the environment. His recent Wild Meadow and Firefly series capture seasonal transitions with striking immediacy and emotional depth.Rooted in the American landscape tradition, Aho’s work evokes the spiritual power of Marsden Hartley, the lyrical clarity of Fairfield Porter, the meditative abstraction of Agnes Martin, and the sweeping drama of Thomas Cole—yet remains unmistakably contemporary and wholly his own.This volume features two gatefolds and stunning reproductions that illuminate Aho’s singular approach to painting nature—its atmospheres, transformations, and unseen energies. A vivid and immersive celebration of an artist who brings new vision and vitality to landscape painting today.

"Vivid and immersive celebration of an artist who brings new vision and vitality to landscape painting today." — TRAVEL BY ENTREE NEWSLETTER"Returning to the meadow at sunrise, twilight, and throughout the seasons, Aho catches glimpses of transient atmospheres between light and darkness, snow and thaw. Alongside nocturnal paintings of fireflies, moonlit forests, and reimagined Dutch still lifes, he addresses the oncoming night and the mysterious forms of illumination therein. Together, these works present an inquiry into the borders of observation and imagination, perception found at the edges of spaces and forms." — ART FORUM"This meditation on time suggests a more personal inquiry into the landscape, as the painting simultaneously mirrors the natural world and the artist’s interior world. " — ART DAILY"The monograph Eric Aho, published in September 2026 by Rizzoli Electa, is the first full-career survey of the artist, featuring a comprehensive essay by critic John Yau and a conversation between Aho and Janne Sirén, art historian and former director of the Buffalo AKG Art Museum." — ARTSY
