Book excerpt: A l'invitation du musée d'Orsay, des artistes d'aujourd'hui dialoguent avec les collections en choisissant l'œuvre de laquelle ils se sentent proches. Naît ainsi la possibilité de voir les collections sous un nouveau jour. Pour Ellsworth Kelly, peintre abstrait américain né en 1923 à Newburgh, l'important est la structure du tableau - et non son contenu -, et l'espace qui l'entoure. Nourri de l'architecture romane, il a toujours été attentif au travail de la structure notamment chez Cézanne. L'essai d'Ann Hindry sur le travail et le parcours de Kelly, et leur entretien, donnent les clés pour découvrir son œuvre et comprendre son dialogue avec L'Estaque de Paul Cézanne.
Download or read book Painting as Model written by Yve-Alain Bois and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1993-05-04 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Informed by both structuralism and poststructuralism, these essays by art critic and historian Yve Alain Bois seek to redefine the status of theory in modernist critical discourse. Warning against the uncritical adoption of theoretical fashions and equally against the a priori rejection of all theory, Bois argues that theory is best employed in response to the specific demands of a critical problem. The essays lucidly demonstrate the uses of various theoretical approaches in conjunction with close reading of both paintings and texts.
