Bad Boy by Eric Fischl

4.9/5

I really enjoyed this book. Eric came up 7 or 8 years ahead of me but we followed similar trajectories. I was work at the Whitney the night of his opening there in 1986, the scene that opens the book. And like me, the 87 stock market crash eventually caught up with the art market. I was non established, despite having two one man shows in the east village. Eric was a rich and famous artist, living the dream. In the 90's I moved into computer graphics and a whole new world, Eric continued to paint. I don't think I've read a work on art that so well describes the creative process, the visions one has, as this book. The high flying years over, Eric came to terms with his work and life as the years progressed. The book settles down abit as we hit the "Steve Martin" years. But still a joy to read all the way through.
