Download or read book James Surls The Splendora Years 1977 1997 written by Terrie Sultan and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2005-09-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A prolific artist with a prodigious gift for stimulating the creativity of others, James Surls is one of the most important sculptors working in America today. His art blends natural forms created of wood, steel, and bronze with sophisticated, sometimes edgy imagery and content to explore fundamental dualities and paradoxes—male and female, joyous optimism and anxious foreboding, conscious rationality and unconscious intuition. Fusing personalized folk idioms with the aesthetics of high modernism, Surls's sculptures are clearly self-expressive, yet freighted with universal meaning. This beautifully illustrated book, which accompanies an exhibition of the same name at the Blaffer Gallery, the Art Museum of the University of Houston, captures an extraordinarily creative period in Surls's career—the two decades he lived and worked in Splendora, Texas. During this time, Surls established a home and artists' colony in the East Texas pineywoods, where he produced an astonishing body of work while encouraging the creativity of other visual and performing artists. Magnificent color and black-and-white images illustrate the key sculptures and works on paper that Surls created in Splendora. Accompanying the images are essays and interviews that offer fascinating insights into Surls's artistic breakthrough in Splendora. Terrie Sultan introduces Surls's work and provides a concise biography of the artist. Eleanor Heartney places Surls's Splendora works within the larger contexts of American and international art. Artists and gallery owners John Alexander, Joseph Havel, The Art Guys, Hiram Butler, and Sharon and Gus Kopriva, as well as curator Jim Harithas and architect Peter Zweig, share lively memories of Splendora as an artist colony and of Surls's pivotal role as artistic mentor and arts impresario for the whole Houston-area arts community. James Surls and his wife Charmaine Locke add a personal signature to the book by describing how their love and their work blossomed in an atmosphere of total freedom to experiment and create. This publication of James Surls's Splendora works clearly establishes that no other artist of Surls's generation has had a greater impact upon the development of Texas as a center of vibrant creativity. At the same time, it confirms Surls's standing within the contemporary international art world as a revolutionary who has expanded the boundaries of traditional sculpture while maintaining a high degree of aesthetic and intellectual quality.

Download or read book Sculpture by Bruce Beasley written by Bruce Beasley and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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." --
