Book excerpt: ELEMENTE DER ENERGIE UND KOMPLEXITÄT Fiona Rae (geb. 1963 in Hongkong, lebt und arbeitet in London) wurde mit ihrer abstrakten Malerei einem breiten Publikum mit der Teilnahme an der legendären Ausstellung Freeze 1988 in den Londoner Docklands bekannt. Sie war damit eine der frühen Vertreterinnen der Young British Artists, die nicht nur die britische Kunstwelt verändern sollten. Ausgehend von einer konzeptuellen Auseinandersetzung mit den Fragestellungen und Möglichkeiten der abstrakten Malerei sind Raes unverkennbare Arbeiten bis heute herausragend und wegweisend. 2011 wurde sie als eine der ersten Frauen als Professorin für Malerei an die Royal Academy berufen. Der Katalog zeigt erstmals die wichtigsten Bilder aus dieser Zeit, die Row Paintings. Sie markieren den Beginn des international beachteten Werks der Künstlerin. Terry R. Myers würdigt in seinem Essay die Bedeutung der Row Paintings in historischem Zusammenhang sowie im aktuellen Diskurs der Malerei.

Download or read book 25 Women written by Dave Hickey and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-12-22 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Newsweek calls him “exhilarating and deeply engaging.” Time Out New York calls him “smart, provocative, and a great writer.” Critic Peter Schjeldahl, meanwhile, simply calls him “My hero.” There’s no one in the art world quite like Dave Hickey—and a new book of his writing is an event. 25 Women will not disappoint. The book collects Hickey’s best and most important writing about female artists from the past twenty years. But this is far more than a compilation: Hickey has revised each essay, bringing them up to date and drawing out common themes. Written in Hickey’s trademark style—accessible, witty, and powerfully illuminating—25 Women analyzes the work of Joan Mitchell, Bridget Riley, Fiona Rae, Lynda Benglis, Karen Carson, and many others. Hickey discusses their work as work, bringing politics and gender into the discussion only where it seems warranted by the art itself. The resulting book is not only a deep engagement with some of the most influential and innovative contemporary artists, but also a reflection on the life and role of the critic: the decisions, judgments, politics, and ethics that critics negotiate throughout their careers in the art world. Always engaging, often controversial, and never dull, Dave Hickey is a writer who gets people excited—and talking—about art. 25 Women will thrill his many fans, and make him plenty of new ones.

Download or read book Painting Pictures written by Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For some years now, painting has been the subject of renewed interest in the art world, taking prime place in such international exhibitions as Pittura Immedia, Troublespot Painting, Painting at the Edge of the World, and Urgent Painting. In this same field of exploration and debate, Painting Pictures considers the possibilities of painting in the age of photographic and digital media. Let those calls for the death of painting after photography ring hollow--Painting Pictures shows how painting reinvents itself in the face of photography, television, advertising, cinema and the computer. Featured is work by dozens of artists who bring painting into the digital age from a variety of approaches, including Jeff Koons, Fiona Rae, Richard Patterson, Matthew Ritchie, Takashi Murakami, Franz Ackermann, Lisa Ruyter, Sarah Morris, Monique Prieto, Brain Calvin, Inka Essenhigh and Fred Tomaselli. These artists often make use of new media for their paintings by appropriating digital pictures or by using the computer as sketchbook. Conversely, new-media artists often cite picture stories and painting gestures in their photographs and videos--and so, within these pages, the reader will also find work by Wolfgang Tillmans, Sarah Jones, Bill Viola, Massimo Vitali, Andreas Gursky, Jeff Wall, Doug Aitken and others.
