Book excerpt: "Whether carved in wood, chiseled in stone, or cast in bronze, the beautiful sculptures of Chaim Gross have a special appeal. This artist's versatility as to material is matched by his range of scale; he is as much at home in marble as in ebony, in the monumental as in the miniature. And it is an affirmative statement - a buoyant and hopeful statement - that Chaim Gross's sculpture makes. For one of the remarkable things about his work is that he is able to create out of the heaviest, densest, and hardest of artistic mediums work that seem to distill from life its light, cheerful, and even humorous essence."--BOOK JACKET.

They complete an unprecedented overview of his oeuvre, a must for everyone interested in the how and why behind one of today's most controversial and celebrated painters.
