{"product_id":"9781080276011","title":"Let's Go Camping: My Camping Logbook","description":"Bruce Kurland was an American still-life painter working from the early 1960s until his death in 2013. Born in New York in 1938, Kurland was initially influenced by earlier European practitioners of the still-life genre such as Fabritius, Chardin and Morandi, whose quiet reveries he inflected with a contemporary vision of mortality derived from the visceral imagery of Francis Bacon. Today, his work can be seen as part of a singular strain of twentieth-century North American painting that includes artists such as Walter Murch and Gregory Gillespie. Kurland infused his paintings with powerful attention to, and a tangible affection for, nature \"red in tooth and claw,\" conjuring \"a little world with which I could do anything I wanted, without losing the illusion.\" This handsome volume, with its cloth binding and tip-on cover, includes essays by poet Lisa Jarnot, gallerist Victoria Munroe and Chief Curator at the Phillips Collection in Washington, DC, Eliza Rathbone.","brand":"Amazon Digital Services LLC - KDP Print US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47036373696752,"sku":"9781080276011","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781080276011_p0.jpg?v=1763677906","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781080276011","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
