This book was released on 2019-01-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: - Highlights from one of the world's finest modern art collections, featuring masterpieces from the avant-garde movements of the early twentieth century up to contemporary art, including works by Beckmann, Picasso, Dalí and Warhol - Works skillfully chosen and lucidly explained by Director Bernhard Maaz - Richly illustrated in full color throughout The Modern Art Collection (Sammlung Moderne Kunst) at the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich is one of the world's leading institutions for painting, sculpture, photography and new media. The spectrum ranges from the avant-garde movements of the early twentieth century to contemporary art. In the incomparably rich collection of Expressionists, the Cubist and Futuristic re-definition of autonomous art challenges the question of man's changed circumstances in the modern age. The artists of the 'Brücke' and the 'Blaue Reiter', along with Max Beckmann, who is uniquely represented here, address this issue eloquently. Pablo Picasso's pictorial fantasies and formal richness of invention are highlighted, along with Surrealists like Max Ernst, René Magritte and Salvador Dalí. Important themes after 1950 are debated in the works by Joseph Beuys, Andy Warhol, Dan Flavin, Georg Baselitz and others. This volume offers the author's refreshingly personal perspective on these subjects and highlights the iconic works in this world-class collection.
Download or read book Stephan Braunfels Pinakothek der Moderne written by Stephan Braunfels and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2002-09-03 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft zur Alten und Neuen Pinakothek in München entstand einer der wichtigsten neuen Museumsbauten der Gegenwart, die Pinakothek der Moderne. Auf internationalem Niveau bildet die Pinakothek der Moderne ein Zentrum für Kunst, Architektur und Design des 20. und 21. Jahrhunderts. Entsprechend anspruchsvoll und vielfältig sind die Aufgaben, die sich der Architektur stellten. Die zentrale Rotunde mit Lichtkuppel sowie eine 100 m lange Treppenanlage als außerordentliche Innenraumskulptur schließen alle Ausstellungsbereiche zusammen. Auch in seinem äußeren Erscheinungsbild tritt das Gebäude als kraftvolle Skulptur in Erscheinung. Eine Grundfrage aller modernen Museumsbauten findet eine Antwort: Soll die Architektur eines Museums zurücktreten, um nur der Kunst zu dienen oder darf, ja soll der Museumsneubau selbst Baukunstwerk sein? Der Autor Michael Mönninger publiziert als Journalist und Kritiker seit vielen Jahren Beiträge und Bücher über Kultur und Architektur der Gegenwart.

Including eight essays which provide an overview of the cultural-historical developments in the decades between 1895 and 2017, the interplay among the genres reveals a glimpse into modernism's cultural history. A special guide for visitors to the museum and an addition for the library at home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "During the summer of 2013 the North Wing of Herrenchiemsee Palace, built by Ludwig II, provided the dazzling setting for artworks from the Pinakothek der Moderne. For the every first time this remarkable place was witness to an encounter between modernity and tradition, Europe and America. Rooms devoted to the artists displayed important works by Georg Baselitz, Joseph Beuys, Sigmar Polke, Arnulf Rainer and Eugen Schönebeck in response to space-filling installations by Dan Flavin, Andy Warhol, Willem de Kooning and John Chamberlain. Here, where it had been impossible to realise the utopia of unlimited beauty, there is space for the reality of contemporary art."--Page 4 of back cover.
Download or read book The Private Collector s Museum written by Georgina S Walker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-05-17 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Private Collector’s Museum connects the rising popularity of private museums with evolving models of collecting and philanthropy, and new inter-relationships between private and public space. It examines how contemporary collectors construct museums to frame themselves as cultural arbiters of global distinction. By exploring a range of in-depth contemporary case studies, the book aims for a more complex understanding of the private collector’s museum, assessing how it is realised, funded and understood in a broader cultural context. It examines the ways in which this particular museum model has evolved within a historical Western tradition of collecting and museum-building, and considers how private museums will endure alongside their public counterparts. It also sheds light on the shifting patterns of collecting, such as the transition of personal art collections into the public sphere. The developments are situated within the wider context of private–public engagement in general. Providing a new analysis of philanthropy, public access and the museum, The Private Collector’s Museum is essential reading for scholars and students interested in the private museum, and key reading for those interested in related issues.
Download or read book Greg Lynn FORM written by Mark Rappolt and published by Rizzoli International Publications. This book was released on 2008 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most provocative and exciting architects today, Greg Lynn has defined how designers and architects use computers as a medium, operating in an expanded field that fuses cutting-edge technology, contemporary art, and science fiction aesthetics with architectural form. At the epicenter of a debate about the role of digital design and new fabrication methods in architecture and general design culture, his projects skillfully blend high technology and detailed craftsmanship, driven by modeling software from the film and aerospace industries. They range from the Ravioli lounge chair for Vitra to the Embryological House, a pre-fab housing type that takes advantage of new manufacturing technologies to produce customized houses adaptable to local conditions. Included are contributions from theorists, architects, and artists, and futurists such as Sylvia Lavin, Ben van Berkel, and Caroline Bos of UN Studio, J.G. Ballard, and Tom Friedman, among others. Greg Lynn FORM offers a window into Lynn's methods and techniques, theoretical positions, and career trajectory. Rather than a retrospective of Lynn's career, it is thought-provoking and forward-looking.

Download or read book Berlin Contemporary written by Julia Walker and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years following reunification, Berlin was the largest construction site in Europe, with striking new architecture proliferating throughout the city in the 1990s and early 2000s. Among the most visible and the most contested of the new projects were those designed for the national government and its related functions. Berlin Contemporary explores these buildings and plans, tracing their antecedents while also situating their iconic forms and influential designers within the spectacular world of global contemporary architecture. Close studies of these sites, including the Reichstag, the Chancellery, and the reconstruction of the Berlin Stadtschloss (now known as the Humboldt Forum), demonstrate the complexity of Berlin's political and architectural rebuilding-and reveal the intricate historical negotiations that architecture was summoned to perform.
