In a career that spanned half a century, Robert Motherwell (1915-1991), one of the pre-eminent artists of the Abstract Expressionist movement, created a vast and varied body of work. He used a wide range of images, inventing, refining and reinventing his characteristic motifs. Drawing, which Motherwell described as 'perhaps the only medium as fast as the mind itself', was essential to his output.

Although Motherwell's drawings are essential to an understanding of his entire career, they have been little studied by scholars. This two-volume catalogue raisonné examines the entirety of the American artist's drawings: the first volume analyses the importance of drawing throughout his career; the second volume thoroughly illustrates and documents his 1,413 known drawings.
