Book The Writings of Robert Motherwell

Download or read book The Writings of Robert Motherwell written by Robert Motherwell and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Motherwell (1915-1991), one of the leading American Abstract Expressionist painters, was also a theorist and exponent of the movement. His writing articulated the intent of the New York school —Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Adolph Gottlieb, Franz Kline, Arshile Gorky, and others—during a period when their work was often reviled for its departure from traditional representation. As founder of the Documents of Modern Art series (later renamed the Documents of Twentieth-Century Art), Motherwell gave modern artists a voice at a time when very few people understood their theories or work. This authoritative new edition of the artist's writings about art includes public lectures, essays, and interviews. Impeccably edited, with an informative introductory essay and rigorous annotation, it is illustrated with black-and-white images that elucidate Motherwell's writings.

Download or read book Art Books written by Wolfgang M. Freitag and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1997. For this second edition of Art Books: A Basic Bibliography of Monographs on Artists, the vast number of new books published since 1985 was surveyed and evaluated. This has resulted in the selection of 3,395 additional titles. These selections, reflective of the increase in the monographic literature on artists during the last ten years, are evidence of the activities of a larger number of art historians in more countries worldwide, of the increasingly diverse and ambitious exhibition programs of museums whose number has also increased dramatically, and also of a lively international art market and the attendant gallery activities. The selections of the first edition have been reviewed, errors have been corrected and important new editions and reprints have been noted. The second edition contains 278 names of artists not represented in the first edition.

Download or read book Bayard Taylor Berndt written by David Berndt and published by . This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his foreword, John Schoonover, dean of Wilmington's storied art community, explains why Bayard Berndt was one of its leaders from 1950 until his death in 1987. In his introductory comments, Charles Allmond, Wilmington sculptor and friend of the artist, remembers Bayard's life-long interest in history and art and explains how Wilmington became a center for art. The artist's son, David Berndt, remembers his father in a charming narrative before discussing his art, which he presents in thirteen thematic collections. Bayard Berndt was taught to paint by Howard Pyle-trained illustrators: Thornton Oakley, Stanley Arthurs, N.C. Wyeth, and Frank Schoonover. His early works reflect his interaction with these illustrators while teaching at the Wilmington Academy of Art. Soon after marrying one of his students in 1935, Bayard and his wife Rita moved ten miles north of Wilmington to Fairville, Pennsylvania where they lived for the rest of their lives. David notices the transition that took place in his father's art after moving to the rolling hills of Chester County. Over the next 50 years, he painted hundreds of plein aire scenes along Brandywine Creek and in its surrounding countryside. After WWII Bayard became the proprietor of Wilmington's most popular art supply and framing shop. His freedom to paint was limited by his responsibilities as a businessman. During the following decade he developed two artistic styles fitting with his double career. He became colorist and brush virtuoso painting rapidly to capture fleeting outdoor light. His works in this genre are reminiscent of Charles Woodbury and George Bellows, and N.C. Wyeth. In his studio, he painted mural-like scenes of historic Wilmington. His works in this genre are reminiscent of Thomas Hart Benton, Grant Wood. The book contains many wonderful examples of both genres. David introduces each collection of paintings with maps that show where they were painted. Many paintings are accompanied by "asides" which highlight the forgotten past of a Brandywine Valley landmark. The book is thus an artistic travelogue through the Brandywine Valley. It is perfect for browsing and a delightful memorial to Bayard Berndt's love of art and history.

Book The Collections of the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art

Download or read book The Collections of the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art written by Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is the second in a series of catalogues devoted to documenting the permanent collections in The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kansas City, Missouri. In this volume on ink-printed graphics, more than six thousand examples are cited, ranging from the 15th to the 20th century. Included are works by many of the leading print-makers of the Western world, some of the impressions being unique and others exceedingly rare." "From the dawn of printing is a group of thirty-two hand-colored woodcuts by unknown German artists, one of the most intact engravings of The Last Supper by the Dutch Master I.A.M. of Zwolle, and both states of Mantegna's Battle of the Sea Gods (Right Half). Among 16th century works are one of the finest known impressions of Durer's St. Jerome in His Study, a unique hand-colored engraving by the Flemish Master S, a singular engraving by Girolamo Mocetto, and chiaroscuro woodcuts by Ugo da Carpi, Agostino Veneziano, and Hendrick Goltzius. Notably representative of the 17th century are a number of Rembrandt's etchings, a splendid impression of Bellange's Martyrdom of St. Lucy, Hollar's Four Seasons, and mezzotints by Blooteling and Dusart. Among distinguished works of the 18th century are a first-edition set of Goya's Caprichos, Descourtis's two finest color intaglios, and etchings of 1748 by Piranesi, as well as a twenty-three-volume bound set of the first Paris edition of all of his antiquarian prints, his sons' additions, and works by their associates. Of the 19th century are Dr. Thornton's Temple of Flora series, Goya's Disasters of War, a superb impression of a Pissarro intaglio, and a unique annotated proof in the complete hand-colored set of Daumier's lithographed Les Cent Robert Macaire. Remarkable among 20th century holdings are proofs of Feininger's Green Bridge and Villon's Red Umbrella, famous posters by Bakst and Thorn Prikker, striking etchings by Nolde, an early lithograph and a monumental acquatint by Picasso, and Lichtenstein's Modern Head series in several media." "Each of one hundred numbered entries written by George L. McKenna discusses a single print, several impressions, or portions of series. Information on the date, size, state, signature, inscriptions, catalogue raisonne numbers, watermark, provenance, and exhibition and publication history of each print precedes the extended text. That text, in essay form, presents relevant biographical detail, analysis of imagery, description of style, and germane critical comment footnoted with reference to publications cited in the bibliography at the end of the book. Depending upon the appearance of the original prints, illustrations are in full color or black and white in facsimile or reduced scale." "Following the one hundred entries is a list of some six thousand other prints in the collection, arranged alphabetically according to nationality, medium, and artist. The title, date, measurements, catalogue raisonne and accession numbers of every print are specified, as well as the names of the donors of gifts. Two hundred and ninety of the prints are reproduced in small black and white plates in close proximity to their locations in the list." "In addition, George L. McKenna has written an introduction which recounts how the print collection has been formed through the years, beginning with the first purchases in 1932."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Printmaking in America

Download or read book Printmaking in America written by Trudy V. Hansen and published by . This book was released on 1995-09 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The years from 1960 to 1990 witnessed an extraordinary outburst of creative activity among American printmakers. A number of important new workshops were founded, from such influential studios as Universal Limited Art Editions as Long Island and the Tamarind Lithography Workshop in Los Angeles to small presses throughout the country. In contrast to traditional European ateliers, where professional printers reproduced artists' designs for commercial edition printing, the new American workshops stressed collaboration, and emphasized radical experimentation with medium and process. The work produced in these studios often owed as much to the imaginative gifts of the printer as the conception of the artist.
