Here's a photo (middle one) that a friend recently sent me. They're part of a photo shoot by Dan Budnik in Guston's Woodstock studio in 1964. What I like about this photograph in the middle is the square of light and the bottom left of the pic, with Guston's head creating a shadow, echoing his paintings from that period. The linseed-ridden, gun-metal head-shaped blobs seemed to carry on throughout his painting career. Below the photos are two untitled paintings, one from the 1964 period and a figurative head from the last group of ink and acrylic paintings he completed before he died in 1980.
Right, I'm off for a couple of weeks, will upload a post or two when I have internet access.
