Thomas Chimes (born 1921) is one of Philadelphia's most important living artists. Tracing the stylistic evolution of Chimes' idiosyncratic art, this handsome book presents a long-overdue survey of his remarkable five-decade career: canvases combining landscape imagery with symbols such as crucifixes (late 1950s-60s); mixed-media constructions set within finely crafted metal boxes (late 1960s-early 1970s); his best-known works, a series of 48 intimate sepia-toned panel portraits of 19th- and 20th-century writers and artists that are placed within oversized wood frames (1973-78); and the enigmatic 'white paintings' of the past two decades.
