Book excerpt: Hidden from view for decades, the work of Hilma af Klint (1862?1944) has captured the imagination of contemporary audiences. She is now widely regarded as a pioneer of twentieth-century abstract art. Her paintings are monumental in scale, with radiant color combinations, enigmatic symbols, and otherworldly shapes. In an era of limited creative freedom for women, her secret paintings were an outlet for her prodigious intelligence, spiritual quest, and groundbreaking artistic vision. Hilma af Klint: The Secret Paintings includes over 125 artworks, ranging from enormous canvasses to small watercolors; pages from her detailed notebooks; and a selection of photographs and other images. Five essays and an illustrated chronology reveal new research on af Klint, her practice, and her place in art history.

Download or read book The Making of a Museum written by Judith Nasby and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2021-10-13 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Judith Nasby, founding director and curator of the Macdonald Stewart Art Centre, animates the story of the gallery from its humble beginnings in the hallways of a university campus in 1916 to its latest incarnation as the internationally recognized Art Gallery of Guelph. The book is beautifully illustrated with eighty images of artworks in the permanent collection, beginning with the gallery's first acquisition, Tom Thomson's 1917 masterpiece The Drive, the last large canvas he painted before his tragic death. As curator, Nasby oversaw the creation of one of the most comprehensive sculpture parks in Canada and the amassing of a permanent collection of some nine thousand artworks. In The Making of a Museum Nasby reveals how the museum developed its internationally recognized collection of contemporary Inuit drawings and wall hangings that toured four continents. She discusses the development of the collection's specializations in contemporary works by Canadian silversmiths; historical European etchings; Woodland and Northeastern Indigenous beadwork; and others that arose from curatorial collaborations, such as molas by Kuna women artists from Panama and contemporary paintings and indigenous woodcuts from Chongqing, China. Nasby recounts her long career as founding director and curator, peppering the hundred-year history of cultural development on the University of Guelph campus and in the city with humorous anecdotes and personal insights to reveal how arts institutions can be created through dedication, serendipity, and perseverance.

Book excerpt: "A major study of New Zealand¿s most internationally significant living artist. Billy Apple (born Barrie Bates in Auckland, 1935) is New Zealand¿s most internationally significant living artist and a pioneer of pop and conceptual art. At the Royal College of Art in London from 1959¿62, Apple studied with key contemporaries ¿ notably David Hockney ¿ and staged one of the earliest solo exhibitions in the new `pop¿ art after changing his name, in 1962, to `Billy Apple¿. In 1964 he moved to New York. There, he worked as an art director, developed his art, exhibited extensively with leading artists (notably in the 1964 American Supermarket exhibition with Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns and others), and established one of the first alternative art spaces ¿ `Apple¿ ¿ which hosted some of the new ephemeral activities that enlivened the New York scene in the 1970s. He returned to live in New Zealand in 1990 where he continues to produce his particular brand of conceptual art. Apple¿s work is held in permanent collections from the Tate to the Philadelphia Museum of Art. This is the first substantial book on Billy Apple¿s career. Based on over a decade of research all over the world and unprecedented access to Apple¿s own archive, Billy Apple®: Life/Work chronicles an extraordinary sixty-year career and the art scenes that have sustained it in London, New York and Auckland. The book includes more than 200 illustrations in colour, with a generous selection of reproductions of Apple¿s works as well as other illustrative material."
