Download or read book Mel Ramos written by Claire Breukel and published by Verlag Fur Moderne Kunst. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complete documentation of pop protagonist Mel Ramos' printed works on paper Richly illustrated in color, Mel Ramos: The Definitive Catalogue Raisonné of Original Prints includes two essays by art historians and curators Claire Breukel and Jeanette Zwingenberger, who analyze Ramos' lifelong artistic engagement with the female nude. From a very early stage in his artistic career, Mel Ramos (1935-2018) explored printed editions as part of his oeuvre. The earliest of these were still in an abstract expressionist idiom, but the artist began engaging with the medium in earnest in the mid-1960s, as the pop style for which he is famed took shape. Pop art's inspiration in consumer goods and mass media naturally led to experiments with commercial printing methods such as silk-screening, and Ramos was one of its foremost practitioners. This catalog is an invaluable resource for researchers, collectors and aficionados alike.

Download or read book Mel Ramos written by Mel Ramos and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the beginning of the 1960s, Mel Ramos devoted himself to the central theme in his oeuvre, and developed the visual vocabulary that is so very characteristic for him: naked women adorning oversize advertising articles populate his colourful, two-dimensional oil paintings.Mel Ramos thus works with double entendre, since his works are formulations of an erotic fantasy that represents a fundamental pattern of marketing strategies in advertising. This publication records Mel Ramos's entire painterly oeuvre, from the first works in the 1950s until today, hence demonstrating his enduring position in Pop Art.In 1963 Mel Ramos, one of the first artists to embrace Pop Art, developed a preference for a tantalizing, seductive visual language. In typical Pop Art colours, beauty queens and nude Hollywood stars are combined with commodities to populate his paintings.In accordance with advertising aesthetics, he placed female bodies in erotic, occasionally vulgar poses on top of consumer goods, thus taking his theme from advertising's enduring slogan, 'sex sells'.

Download or read book Craigie Aitchison written by Andrew Lambirth and published by Royal Academy Books. This book was released on 2013-12-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The painter and printmaker Craigie Aitchison (1926-2009), born in Edinburgh and trained at the Slade School for Art, is best-known for his spare compositions and intense, luminous palette. His subject-matter is equally distinctive - single flower, Bedlington terriers, sheep and crucifixions - rendered, as in the early Italian religious paintings that he so admired, in simple but powerful forms. These hallmarks are also present in Aitchison's prints, most of which are the legacy of his longstanding relationship with the technicians at Advanced Graphics, London. His prints are all brought togethers for the first time in his authoritative publication, an essential purchase for all those interested in Aitchison's work.

Download or read book Stanley Anderson written by Robert Meyrick and published by Royal Academy Books. This book was released on 2015-04-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite living through some of the most dramatic changes of the twentieth century, Stanley Anderson CBE (1884-1966) created a vision of an essentially timeless English rural tradition in his etchings and woodcuts. He trained as an engraver, first on a heraldic engraving apprenticeship with his father and later at the Royal College of Art and Goldsmiths' College, London. Anderson became a master of his craft: elected as a fellow of the Royal Society of Painter-Etcher and Engravers in 1923. When he later took up woodcutting, he became immersed in a technique that was considered as deeply English as the subjects he depicted. Anderson was a key figure in the engraving revival in the 1920s; the technique's exacting craftsmanship, intimate scale and indelible sense of historicism were a stark contrast to the contemporary modernist explosion, which was led by Ezra Pound's infamous exhortation "Make it new". This catalogue raisonne gathers together for the first time the complete oeuvre of Anderson's prints, from the townscapes of his early career to the fascinating twenty-year study of rural crafts, including hedge-laying, carpentry and barrel-making, that he carried out towards the end of his life, and for which he is best known. AUTHOR: Robert Meyrick is Head of the School of Art and Keeper of the School of Art Museum and Collections at Aberystwyth University. Meyrick has published widely and is the author of Sydney Lee Prints: A Catalogue Raisonne, also by RA Publications. SELLING POINTS: * A historical snapshot of rural crafts on the verge of extinction, rendered in exquisitely detailed wood engravings * A re-introduction to a marvellous engraver who has unfortunately been forgotten by the mainstream art world * Although Anderson is little known now, his work features in major museums in the UK and the USA 260 b/w

Download or read book The Prints of Margaret Preston written by Roger Butler and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised and enlarged edition of The Prints of Margaret Preston includes thirteen new works discovered since the original publication in 1987, and twenty-two works that are reproduced for the first time. Margaret Preston (1875-1963) is one of Australia's most celebrated modernists. In the 1920s and thirties she created exuberant decorative compositions which have remained among the most popular of all Australian artworks. Modern, cosmopolitan, and intensely colored, Preston's woodblock prints and paintings of still-life subjects and the Sydney metropolis captured a moment of extraordinary innovation in the history of Australian art. Preston was the country's first serious advocate of Aboriginal art; her early appropriation and promotion of Aboriginal imagery to the cause of modernism has contributed to her ongoing significance.

Download or read book The Prints of Roy Lichtenstein written by Mary Lee Corlett and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lichtenstein, who devoted himself seriously to printmaking earlier than any other major artist of his generation (he made his first two prints in 1948 - a lithograph and a woodcut - and by 1950 had added etching and screenprint to his repertoire), is widely acknowledged as one of the most important printmakers of our time. Printmaking often provides him with an arena in which he is at his most experimental, apt to try something new, especially with materials." "The Prints of Roy Lichtenstein catalogues and reproduces each of the artist's prints, as well as original posters, book and magazine illustrations, announcements, etc., 350 in all. Every work that is color in the original is reproduced in color. The volume's reference value is enhanced by a Chronology, Exhibition History, Bibliography, Concordances, and Index."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
