Jean Fr?mon's THE PARADOXES OF ROBERT RYMAN: EXPANDED EDITION is an extended edition of a collection of essays about the American abstract painter, Robert Ryman. Robert Ryman's remarks were written down by Fremon during the course of many visits to his studio in 1989 and 1990. Fremon wrote down his thoughts and Ryman's remarks in French, even though their conversations were spoken in English. From these notes Fr?mon wrote a collection of essays that were then retranslated into English for this book, and thus they may differ slightly from the original.
