Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the mid-twentieth century, Latin American artists working in several different cities radically altered the nature of modern art. Reimagining the relationship of art to its public, these artists granted the spectator an unprecedented role in the realization of the artwork. The first book to explore this phenomenon on an international scale, Abstraction in Reverse traces the movement as it evolved across South America and parts of Europe. Alexander Alberro demonstrates that artists such as Tomás Maldonado, Jesús Soto, Julio Le Parc, and Lygia Clark, in breaking with the core tenets of the form of abstract art known as Concrete art, redefined the role of both the artist and the spectator. Instead of manufacturing autonomous art, these artists produced artworks that required the presence of the spectator to be complete. Alberro also shows the various ways these artists strategically demoted regionalism in favor of a new modernist voice that transcended the traditions of the nation-state and contributed to a nascent globalization of the art world.

Book excerpt: El arte concreto, definido por Theo van Doesburg en su manifiesto Art concret de 1930, es un arte europeo, abstracto geométrico y universal, desconocido para el público en general, a pesar de tener un siglo de antigüedad. Sus obras se distinguen por ser ejecutadas mecánicamente a partir de bocetos, sólo con los elementos plásticos del arte (planos y colores), sin obtener ninguna referencia de la realidad u otro significado más que sí mismas. De igual modo, la finalidad de su contemplación, que requiere cierto esfuerzo de concentración, es inducir al espectador a un estado de consciencia, a través de una búsqueda interna. Por medio del estudio de uno de sus artistas, el pintor cubano Waldo Balart, afincado en Madrid, nos acercamos a dicho movimiento, repasando su trayectoria, su situación actual y la mentalidad global que comparten sus artistas. El objetivo de este trabajo es demostrar que Waldo Balart es un artista representativo de esta corriente, una conclusión que se ha evidenciado después de comprobar que las colecciones y museos más prestigiosos dedicados al arte concreto cuentan con su obra entre la privilegiada selección de artistas. Otro propósito es hacer visible que él es un artista que ha hecho una gran aportación a la historia del arte, algo que ha sido resuelto con el examen del extenso trabajo artístico y teórico con el que ha contribuido, producto de toda una vida de dedicación. Igualmente se ha revelado que por medio de su amistad ha influido en el trabajo de artistas tan importantes como Andy Warhol. Además, la finalidad de la investigación es probar que Waldo, cuyo apellido completo es Díaz- Balart, despierta un inmenso interés por ser una figura notable socioculturalmente, hecho que conlleva el pertenecer a una familia destacada política y socialmente; primero en su país natal, Cuba y luego en el país donde se exilio, los EEUU. Por otro lado, Waldo ha vivido en diferentes partes del mundo - Cuba, Nueva York, Madrid, Paraguay, Brasil y Bélgica - absorbiendo cosas destacable de varias culturas, en momentos puntuales que concentran una enorme atención. De ellos se destaca la explosión cultural que vivió en Nueva York, durante el reinado del expresionismo abstracto, el pop art y el minimalismo. Asimismo, en cada cultura ha convivido con personalidades tan relevantes como su excuñado Fidel Castro e incluso, fuera del plano artístico, él mismo desempeñó un valor social preponderante. Todas las circunstancias que rodean su atractiva personalidad, de alguna manera han sido absorbidas y proyectadas en su labor artística, en la que utiliza el color como herramienta expresiva. Con pretensión de evitar su dispersión y consiguiente perdida, así como de colaborar en el registro de la historia del arte contemporáneo, este ensayo reúne la mayor parte del material sobre un valioso artista, que hasta ahora está poco estudiado...

Download or read book Abstract Crossings written by María Amalia García and published by University of California Press. This book was released on 2019-07-16 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toward the middle of the 1950s, abstract art became a dominant trend in the Latin American cultural scene. Many artists incorporated elements of abstraction into their rigorous artistic vocabularies, while at the same time, the representation of geometric lines and structures filtered into everyday life, appearing in textiles, posters, murals, and landscapes. The translation of a field-changing Spanish-language book, Abstract Crossings analyzes the relationship between, on the one hand, the emergence of abstract proposals in avant-garde groups and, on the other, the institutionalization and newfound hegemony of abstract poetics as part of Latin America’s imaginary of modernization. A profusion of mid-century artistic institutional exchanges between Argentina and Brazil makes a study of the trajectories of abstraction in these two countries particularly valuable. Examining the work of artists such as Max Bill, Lygia Clark, Waldemar Cordeiro, and Tomás Maldonado, author María Amalia García rewrites the artistic history of the period and proposes a novel reading of the cultural dialogue between Argentina and Brazil. This is the first book in the new Studies on Latin American Art series, supported by a gift from the Institute for Studies on Latin American Art.

Download or read book Meanings of Abstract Art written by Paul Crowther and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional art is based on conventions of resemblance between the work and that which it is a representation "of". Abstract art, in contrast, either adopts alternative modes of visual representation or reconfigures mimetic convention. This book explores the relation of abstract art to nature (taking nature in the broadest sense—the world of recognisable objects, creatures, organisms, processes, and states of affairs). Abstract art takes many different forms, but there are shared key structural features centered on two basic relations to nature. The first abstracts from nature, to give selected aspects of it a new and extremely unfamiliar appearance. The second affirms a natural creativity that issues in new, autonomous forms that are not constrained by mimetic conventions. (Such creativity is often attributed to the power of the unconscious.) The book covers three categories: classical modernism (Mondrian, Malevich, Kandinsky, Arp, early American abstraction); post-war abstraction (Pollock, Still, Newman, Smithson, Noguchi, Arte Povera, Michaux, postmodern developments); and the broader historical and philosophical scope.

Download or read book Purity Is a Myth written by Zanna Gilbert and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting new scholarship, this publication is an innovative technical study of the Concrete art movement in Latin America. Purity Is a Myth presents new scholarship on Concrete art in Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay from the 1940s to the 1960s. Originally coined by the Dutch artist Theo van Doesburg in 1930, the term concrete denotes abstract painting with no reference to external reality. Van Doesburg argued that there was nothing more real than a line, color, or plane. Artists such as Willys de Castro, Lygia Clark, Waldemar Cordeiro, Hermelindo Fiaminghi, Judith Lauand, Raúl Lozza, Tomás Maldonado, Hélio Oiticica, and Rhod Rothfuss would reinvent this concept in postwar Latin America. Drawing on research conducted by Getty and international partners, the essays in this volume address a variety of topics, including the general history, emergence, and reception of Concrete art; processes and color; scientific analysis of works; illustrated chronologies of the paint industry in Brazil and Argentina; and Concrete design on paper. An innovative technical study of the Concrete art movement in Latin America, this volume will be indispensable to scholars, practitioners, and students of Latin American art.

Book excerpt: Concrete Invention is focused on the development of geometric abstraction in Latin America (Montevideo, Buenos Aires, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Caracas) throughout the decades of the thirties and seventies in the twentieth century. It includes theoretical essays about the movement, personal reflections by contemporary artists, and a visual section featuring specific themes (geometry, illusion, dialogue, vibration, universalism). It ends with a questionnaire given to well-known theorists about the continuity, value and influence of geometric abstraction in the present. Resembling an artist's book, it includes a fold-out piece by artist José León Cerrillo, which forms a play on words with the publication's title.
