Summary

In 1960 Eva Hesse (1936-1970) created an unusual group of oil paintings. Contrary to scholarship, which suggests that these works represent a form of self-deprecation, this book seeks to consider these 'spectre' paintings as manifestations of a private, haunted interiority in the context of the artist's burgeoning maturity.
