David Zwirner Books
The Art Student Collection
Editor’s Notes:
Curated for artists, readers, and dreamers alike, The Art Student Collection from David Zwirner Books brings together three essential reflections on painting and artistic life. Featuring Oh, to Be a Painter! by Virginia Woolf, Letters to a Young Painter by Rainer Maria Rilke, and Alice Neel: The Art of Not Sitting Pretty, this trio offers a deeply human perspective on creativity and the artist’s journey. From Woolf’s lyrical meditations on the painter’s impulse to Rilke’s timeless letters of artistic counsel, and Neel’s uncompromising portraiture, this set serves as both inspiration and education—a beautifully bound toolkit for the creative mind.
Drawing on David Zwirner’s world-renowned artists, estates, and exhibitions, the contemporary art gallery’s imprint publishes monographs, historical surveys, and collected writings of the highest quality.
