This book is a collection of the art of Robert Griffing (1989-2002) carefully woven with the history and artifacts that serve as his inspiration. Over 75 color plates cover the artist's work from his earliest pieces to the present. The Art of Robert Griffing goes beyond the myth of colonial America and presents the reality of the frontier that Griffing so artfully searches for in his work. Work on a second book is underway with a tentative release date of 2005.
