Book excerpt: "Bruce Beasley was discovered in 1960 by Dorothy Miller, the curator of painting and sculpture at New York's Museum of Modern Art. Miller included Beasley in MOMA's 1961 seminal exhibition The Art of Assemblage, which featured such luminaries as Willem de Kooning, Jasper Johns, Louise Nevelson, and Robert Rauschenberg. The following year MOMA acquired one of Beasley's sculptures, making him at age twenty-two the youngest artist to be included in the museum's permanent collection. In 1963, André Malraux, the French minister of culture and famous writer and philosopher, awarded Beasley the Purchase Prize in the Paris Biennale. Beasley followed this auspicious beginning by becoming one of his generation's most productive and innovative sculptors. A self-described "unrepentant modernist," Beasley continues in the tradition of modernist abstract sculptors such as David Smith, Anthony Caro, and Eduardo Chillida, pursuing ure form and shape as an expressive and communicative human language. Beasley's sculpture is profoundly and proudly visual. Rather than resembling any one thing, his works evoke many things. His sculptures immerse the viewer in an experience of form that triggers feelings and sensations." --

Download or read book The Most Typical Avant Garde written by David James and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2005-05-30 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los Angeles has nourished a dazzling array of independent cinemas: avant-garde and art cinema, ethnic and industrial films, pornography, documentaries, and many other far-flung corners of film culture. This glorious panoramic history of film production outside the commercial studio system reconfigures Los Angeles, rather than New York, as the true center of avant-garde cinema in the United States. As he brilliantly delineates the cultural perimeter of the film business from the earliest days of cinema to the contemporary scene, David James argues that avant-garde and minority filmmaking in Los Angeles has in fact been the prototypical attempt to create emancipatory and progressive culture. Drawing from urban history and geography, local news reporting, and a wide range of film criticism, James gives astute analyzes of scores of films—many of which are to found only in archives. He also looks at some of the most innovative moments in Hollywood, revealing the full extent of the cross-fertilization the occurred between the studio system and films created outside it. Throughout, he demonstrates that Los Angeles has been in the aesthetic and social vanguard in all cinematic periods—from the Socialist cinemas of the early teens and 1930s; to the personal cinemas of psychic self-investigation in the 1940s; to attempts in the 1960s to revitalize the industry with the counterculture’s utopian visions; and to the 1970s, when African Americans, Asian Americans, Latinos, women, gays, and lesbians worked to create cinemas of their own. James takes us up to the 1990s and beyond to explore new forms of art cinema that are now transforming the representation of Southern California’s geography.

Download or read book Roger Kuntz written by Susan Mary Anderson and published by Gingko Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By about 1950 Kuntz believed that post-war abstract expressionism had run its course and that the time was ripe for the reappearance of structure in art that communicated to the viewer. Kuntz embarked on several painting series, culminating in the nationally acclaimed Freeway series. These bare geometric paintings dated 1959 to 1962 of concrete canyons, underpasses, ramps, pedestrian spirals, tunnels, and signs carved in deep shadow and light, embodied Kuntz's search for the union of formal abstraction and mundane reality. This stylistic shift away from gestural abstraction was in sync with the times and Kuntz was included in the first national survey of Pop Art organized by John Coplans, editor of Artforum magazine, in 1963.
