Book Mar  a Elvia de Hank

Download or read book Mar a Elvia de Hank written by Yvonne Venegas and published by Rm. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maria Elvia de Hank is a view from within by photographer and author Yvonne Venegas, that observes the life, family, and circle of María Elvia de Hank, the wife of the eccentric millionaire and former mayor of Tijuana Jorge Hank Rohn. As the axis of the project, the wife of one of the richest businessmen in Mexico is observed creating, with her perfectionists touch, a social ideal that takes its place as an example in both public and private life. This feminine axis, perfectly administered, is portrayed against the background that supports it, occasionally awakening doubts in the spectator as to its veracity. A mansion, a collection of animals, a soccer team and its fans, a casino, a school, horses, elegant clothes, all seen through the light and dust of northern Mexico, the land that can be found in a ranch, or a zoo, or some half-built construction. This volume gathers a body of work reflecting the modes of thought that has brought the aforementioned elements to light, without making judgments and without meeting the expectations of others, be they subjects or viewers. This is a document that includes fragile moments, gestures, encounters between persons and animals: taken together, they depict a lifestyle to which we are seldom privy.

Extended by a group of some 30 major works from the Russian avant-gardes, including Counter Relief (1916) by Vladimir Tatlin, Green Stripe (1917) by Olga Rozanova, and Kazimir Malevich's monochrome painting, Black Suprematie Square (1929), Icons of Modern Art covers the extreme breadth of this journey through 19th- and 20th-century creation. The presentation of these exceptional works, where our collective gaze comes together, constitutes an exemplary "painting lesson."

Book The Museum of Modern Art Book of Cartoons

Download or read book The Museum of Modern Art Book of Cartoons written by Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.) and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When The Museum of Modern Art first opened its doors on 8 November 1929, it was considered a radical experiment - who would have thought that a museum devoted entirely to 'outrageous' modern art would be successful? But succeed it did, weathering both the stock market crash of 1929 just a week later and a storm of controversy that did not dissuade the crowds from going to see what all the fuss was about. Today, MoMA is one of the leading institutions of its kind in the world, with an unrivalled collection of modern and contemporary art. Spanning the museum's entire history, this delightful book of cartoons is a wonderfully enjoyable and witty celebration of the Museum and the lively public debate it has often inspired.

Download or read book Women Painting Women written by Andrea Karnes and published by Delmonico Books. This book was released on 2022-05-10 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Replete with complexities, abjection, beauty and joy, Women Painting Women offers new ways to imagine the portrayal of women, from Alice Neel to Jordan Casteel A thematic exploration of nearly 50 female artists who choose women as subject matter in their works, Women Painting Women includes nearly 50 portraits that span the 1960s to the present. International in scope, the book recognizes female perspectives that have been underrepresented in the history of postwar figuration. Painting is the focus, as traditionally it has been a privileged medium for portraiture, particularly for white male artists. The artists here use painting and women as subject matter and as vehicles for change. They range from early trailblazers such as Emma Amos and Alice Neel to emerging artists such as Jordan Casteel, Somaya Critchlow and Apolonia Sokol. All place women--their bodies, gestures and individuality--at the forefront. The pivotal narrative in Women Painting Women is how the artists included use the conventional portrait of a woman as a catalyst to tell another story outside of male interpretations of the female body. They conceive new ways to activate and elaborate on the portrayal of women by exploring themes of the Body, Nature Personified, Selfhood and Color as Portrait. Replete with complexities, realness, abjection, beauty, complications, everydayness and joy, the portraits in this volume make way for women artists to share the stage with their male counterparts in defining the image of woman and how it has evolved. Artists include: Rita Ackermann, Njideka Akunyili Crosby, Emma Amos, María Berrío, Louise Bonnet, Lisa Brice, Joan Brown, Jordan Casteel, Somaya Critchlow, Kim Dingle, Marlene Dumas, Celeste Dupuy-Spencer, Nicole Eisenman, Tracey Emin, Natalie Frank, Hope Gangloff, Eunice Golden, Jenna Gribbon, Alex Heilbron, Ania Hobson, Luchita Hurtado, Chantal Joffe, Hayv Kahraman, Maria Lassnig, Christiane Lyons, Danielle Mckinney, Marilyn Minter, Alice Neel, Elizabeth Peyton, Paula Rego, Faith Ringgold, Deborah Roberts, Susan Rothenberg, Jenny Saville, Dana Schutz, Joan Semmel, Amy Sherald, Lorna Simpson, Arpita Singh, Sylvia Sleigh, Apolonia Sokol, May Stevens, Claire Tabouret, Mickalene Thomas, Nicola Tyson and Lisa Yuskavage.
