Published in coordination with an eponymous exhibition, this publication examines artist Maynard Dixon's Arizona works, representing a place he deemed "...a land bright and mysterious...." An essay by Smith (curator, Tucson Museum of Art) explores Dixon's departure from the traditional models of American Western art, while author and independent scholar Hagerty provides a bibliographic essay on Dixon. The artist's works are reproduced chronologically in beautiful full-color images.
