Book excerpt: A friend of Jackson Pollock, Franz Kline, Afro, Alberto Burri and Giuseppe Capogrossi, founder of the Eight Street Club and promoter of the ?Ninth Street Show?, one of the most important exhibitions of New York art in the 1950s, but above all an artist who worked in both Europe and America, Conrad Marca-Relli (Boston, 1913 ? Parma, 2000) was a pivotal figure in American Abstract Expressionism.0Published in collaboration with the Archivio Marca-Relli, based at the Niccoli gallery in Parma, the monograph looks back at the milestones in the Italian-American artist?s career, documenting the strong impact of Marca-Relli and his work on the American and international scene.0In the years immediately after the Second World War, Conrad Marca- Relli (Boston, 1913 ? Parma, 2000) was, in fact, one of the protagonists of the New York art scene, first joining the Downton Group and then founding the Eight Street Club in 1949 with Mark Rothko, Fran Kline and William de Kooning. A friend of Jackson Pollock and Lee Krasner, a lecturer at Yale and Berkeley, the Whitney Museum dedicated a solo exhibition him in 1967. A tireless traveller between the United States and Europe, in 1997 he moved to Parma, a city chosen because of his collaboration with the Galleria d?Arte Niccoli, with which he founded the Archivio Marca-Relli in the same year. Since then, the archive has contributed to all the exhibitions dedicated to the artist, including the major retrospective held in the Rotonda on Via Besana in Milan in 2008.0Works by Marca-Relli feature in numerous collections, including the Guggenheim in Bilbao; The Art Institute, MET, MoMA and Whitney Museum of American Art in New York; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Fondazione Peggy Guggenheim in Venice and the National Gallery of Art, Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington D.C.

Download or read book Art of Another Kind written by Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and published by Guggenheim Museum. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pioneering artists of the post-World War II era embraced artistic freedom and gesture-based styles, nontraditional materials and countercultural references. French art critic Michel Tapié even declared the existence of "un art autre" (art of another kind)--an art that entailed a radical break with all traditional notions of order and composition, in a movement toward something wholly "other." This catalogue accompanies the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum exhibition Art of Another Kind: International Abstraction and the Guggenheim, 1949-1960, which especially highlights works that entered into the collection during the tenure of then-director James Johnson Sweeney. Featuring nearly 100 works by Carla Accardi, Pierre Alechinsky, Karel Appel, Martin Barré, Harry Bertoia, Louise Bourgeois, Alberto Burri, Sam Francis, Grace Hartigan, Asger Jorn, Yves Klein, Franz Kline, Willem de Kooning, Conrad Marca-Relli, Kenzo Okada, Jorge Oteiza, Jackson Pollock, Ad Reinhardt, Pierre Soulages, Clyfford Still, Antoni Tàpies, Jean Tinguely, Cy Twombly, Takeo Yamaguchi and Zao Wou-Ki, among others, this collection-based exhibition and publication explore the affinities and differences between artists working continents apart, in a period of great transition and rapid creative development. The fully illustrated exhibition catalogue includes essays by Tracey Bashkoff, Megan M. Fontanella and Joan Marter; an illustrated chronology; and short biographies of the artists.

Book excerpt: A National Book Critics Circle finalist • One of Vogue's Best Books of the Year A dazzling biography of one of the twentieth century's most respected painters, Helen Frankenthaler, as she came of age as an artist in postwar New York “The magic of Alexander Nemerov's portrait of Helen Frankenthaler in Fierce Poise is that it reads like one of Helen's paintings. His poetic descriptions of her work and his rich insights into the years when Helen made her first artistic breakthroughs are both light and lush, seemingly easy and yet profound. His book is an ode to a truly great artist who, some seventy years after this story begins, we are only now beginning to understand.” ―Mary Gabriel, author of Ninth Street Women At the dawn of the 1950s, a promising and dedicated young painter named Helen Frankenthaler, fresh out of college, moved back home to New York City to make her name. By the decade's end, she had succeeded in establishing herself as an important American artist of the postwar period. In the years in between, she made some of the most daring, head-turning paintings of her day and also came into her own as a woman: traveling the world, falling in and out of love, and engaging in an ongoing artistic education. She also experienced anew―and left her mark on―the city in which she had been raised in privilege as the daughter of a judge, even as she left the security of that world to pursue her artistic ambitions. Brought to vivid life by acclaimed art historian Alexander Nemerov, these defining moments--from her first awed encounter with Jackson Pollock's drip paintings to her first solo gallery show to her tumultuous breakup with eminent art critic Clement Greenberg―comprise a portrait as bold and distinctive as the painter herself. Inspired by Pollock and the other male titans of abstract expressionism but committed to charting her own course, Frankenthaler was an artist whose talent was matched only by her unapologetic determination to distinguish herself in a man's world. Fierce Poise is an exhilarating ride through New York's 1950s art scene and a brilliant portrait of a young artist through the moments that shaped her.

Download or read book American Abstract Expressionism written by David Thistlewood and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first volume in the Tate Gallery Liverpool Critical Forum series is derived from a conference held in conjunction with the display of Abstract Expressionist Painting from the USA, which was mounted at Tate Gallery Liverpool from March 1992 to January 1993. The display comprised 21 paintings by 13 artists, including Ad Reinhardt, Norman Lewis, Adolph Gottlieb, Jackson Pollock, Arshile Gorky, Franz Kline and Willem de Kooning. The objectives of the conference, involving speakers from the international community of scholarship in the field, were: to elicit new observations, critical judgments and proposals from the knowledge base of abstract expressionism and perhaps to challenge some of its prevailing conventions; and to debate the role of the Tate Gallery Liverpool as a modifier of this field of knowledge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a decade, Jackson Pollock and Lee Krasner devoted their lives to each other, serving in turn as muse, critic, companion, lover, friend and alter ego. Their romance was stormy - their raucous arguments are the stuff of legend - but their talents were prodigious. This book is packed with examples of the contributions both artists made to the world of modern art. Readers will learn how Pollock and Krasners artistry evolved and how they influenced each others success. Recent developments, such as a revealing biopic and the art worlds elevation of Pollock to the status of being the most expensive artist in the world, bring their portrait fully up-to-date. While the author acknowledges historys sensationalisation of their lives, it is the paintings themselves - revolutionary, innovative and daring - that tell the most compelling story.

Download or read book Builded Remnants Ediz illustrata written by Berndnaut Smilde and published by Damiani Limited. This book was released on 2017 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smilde combines the heritage of traditional Dutch interior paintings with contemporary media and conceptual techniques. In his Nimbus series, Smilde creates a "real" cloud in interior spaces, depicting a moment of fragility in evocative locations. Smilde creates his clouds by carefully regulating the temperature and humidity of a room and then, using a smoke machine, lighting, and moisture, captures the brief moment when a fleeting "cloud" is created. He carefully selects the locations for their visual as well as historical relevance. Smilde's choice of location often contains visual evidence of the building's purpose, further emphasizing the temporality of both the cloud and its surroundings. Builded Remains explores never before seen "backstage" images of Smilde making the Nimbus artworks and also documents his wider practice and further artistic investigations into nature, science, and the uncanny.
