"In this informal biography, Lipchitz provides a living history of himself, man and artist, with a personal description of the creation of each of his works. Published on the occasion of a major exhibition of his work at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York (June 1972), in honor of his eightieth birthday, My Life in Sculpture is a unique work of extensive documentation that will be invaluable source material for students of modern art history." -- from interior flap.
