    Book Details:
  • Author : William Eggleston

  • ISBN : 9780224069632
  • Pages : 167 pages

Download or read book Ancient and Modern written by William Eggleston and published by Jonathan Cape. This book was released on 2002 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The appreciation of Eggleston's work has come a long way since his pioneering 1976 exhibition, William Eggleston's Guide, at New York's Museum of Modern Art. He has been called the 'father of colour photography' and since the 1990s he is widely regarded as the leading and most influential colour photographer of the twentieth century. Ancient and Modern is a collection of photographs chosen from Eggleston's earliest photographs taken in the American South, Africa and England. The photographs depict subjects and objects from everyday life and it is Eggleston's unique ability to find beauty, and striking displays of colour, in ordinary scenes. Mark Holborn, in his illuminating introduction, writes about the dark undercurrent of these mundane scenes as viewed through Eggleston's lens: '[Eggleston's] subjects are, on the surface, the ordinary inhabitants and environs of suburban Memphis and Mississippi - friends, family, barbecues, back yards, a tricycle and the clutter of the mundane. The normality of these subjects is deceptive, for behind the images there is a sense of lurking danger.'

Book History and Methods  of Ancient Modern Painting

Download or read book History and Methods of Ancient Modern Painting written by James Ward and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Methods, of Ancient Modern Painting: From the Earliest Times to the Beginning of the Renaissance Period Including the Methods and Materials of the Painter's Craft of Ancient and Modern Times IN this volume I have attempted to outline the History and Methods of Painting from the earliest Egyptian times to the beginning of the Italian Renaissance, and have endeavoured to explain and describe the materials used in painting in ancient and modern times. As this work is primarily written for the use of students, I have thought it best to treat of Painting in its broadest sense, which would include the use and application of colours and mediums in decorative and ornamental painting, as well as in other branches of this art, which are generally classed under the so-called fine arts, ' where the word painting is used in a more restricted sense, and is popularly but inaccurately understood to be limited to the art of painting pictures. We may go further than this, and say that in the more modern sense. Of the word, painting, as an art, is more particularly applied to pictures executed in an oil medium. Even pictures in water-colours, however carefully or elaborately painted, are known to the public and to the auctioneer as drawings. In the Whirligig of time the fine gold is chang Some words in our language have entirely lost their original meaning, while the meaning of others is becoming more narrowed and restricted. The mosaic designer and worker is a painter, and so is the embroiderer, although neither of them uses a brush in applying their colours to their pictures, but they both decorate or paint in colour. The former paints with his fingers, instead of a brush, and uses vitrified colours instead of moist pigments, while the latter paints with a needle, using coloured threads instead of paints.
