This exhibition catalogue features the work of renowned West Coast painter Wayne Thiebaud, organized in collaboration with the Wayne Thiebaud Foundation. The theme of the American summer is explored in detail through his beloved paintings.

This catalogue highlights Wayne Thiebaud's artistic journey spanning six decades, showcasing his continued fascination with whimsical themes through traditional painting techniques. It offers a tribute to his admiration for the classic American summer, from its sugary treats like ice cream and soda to outdoor games and cookouts, fading away the memories of a cold winter. The paintings featured in this catalogue, ranging from the 1960s to the 2000s, capture the essence of beach life through vibrant depictions of hot dogs, ice creams, beach balls, and bathing suits.

A majority of the pieces are sourced directly from the foundation and are seldom displayed to the public. Over 60 paintings showcase the artist's versatility, impressive skills, and vibrant color palette, as well as a whimsical sense of nostalgia and playfulness.

Portrait of Wayne Thiebaud

About the Artist

Wayne Thiebaud

Wayne Thiebaud (1920 – 2021) was an American painter known for his colorful works depicting commonplace objects—pies, lipsticks, paint cans, ice cream cones, pastries, and hot dogs—as well as for his landscapes and figure paintings. Thiebaud is associated with the pop art movement because of his interest in objects of mass culture, although his early works, executed during the fifties and sixties, slightly predate the works of the classic pop artists. Thiebaud used heavy pigment and exaggerated colors to depict his subjects, and the well-defined shadows characteristic of advertisements were almost always included in his work.
