Book Whistler

Download or read book Whistler written by Kelly Mass and published by Efalon Acies. This book was released on 2024-01-14 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The celebrated American painter James Abbott McNeill Whistler found inspiration from diverse sources like Rembrandt, Velázquez, and ancient Greek sculpture to cultivate his own highly influential and unique style. With an extensive body of work encompassing nearly 500 paintings, etchings, pastels, watercolors, sketches, and lithographs, Whistler demonstrated mastery across numerous artistic mediums. A leading figure in the Aesthetic Movement, Whistler was an outspoken advocate, writer, and lecturer on the principle of "art for art's sake." In instructing his students, he stressed elemental design, economy of technique, avoidance of overwrought methods, and tonal harmony in the final result. Whistler has been the subject of many major museum exhibitions, scholarly studies, and books. Like the Impressionists, he drew inspiration from nature itself. However, Whistler contended that it was the role of the artist to interpret what he observed rather than be constrained by literal truth, and to "elicit splendid harmony from chaos." Whistler influenced two generations of painters in Europe and America during his lifetime. He engaged in extensive interaction with Realist, Impressionist, and Symbolist artists, exchanging ideas and aspirations. The painter Walter Sickert and writer Oscar Wilde were two of his famous protégés for a period. Numerous American artists like John Singer Sargent, William Merritt Chase, Henry Salem Hubbell, and Willis Seaver Adams were impacted by his Tonalist style after befriending him in Venice. In the late 1890s, Whistler met Arthur Frank Mathews in Paris. Mathews brought Whistler's Tonalism to San Francisco where it was widely adopted by California artists around the turn of the century. In 1907, American art critic Charles Caffin wrote: James Abbott McNeill Whistler, an American painter who left an indelible mark on the art world, transcended the confines of a mere following or imitators. His influence resonates across myriad studios globally, shaping contemporary artistic philosophy in both conscious and subconscious ways.

Book A Companion to Impressionism

  • Author : André Dombrowski
  • Publisher : John Wiley & Sons
  • Release : 2024-02-27
  • ISBN : 1119373921
  • Pages : 644 pages

Download or read book A Companion to Impressionism written by André Dombrowski and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-02-27 with total page 644 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Companion to Impressionism Presenting an expansive view of the study of Impressionism, this pioneering volume breaks new thematic ground while also reconsidering questions concerning the defini­tion, chronology, and membership of the impressionist movement. In 34 original essays from established and emerging scholars, this collection offers a diverse range of developing topics and new critical approaches to the interpretation of impressionist art. Focusing on the 1860s to 1890s, A Companion to Impressionism explores artists who are well-represented in impressionist studies, including Monet, Renoir, Degas, and Cassatt, as well as Morisot, Caillebotte, Bazille, and other significant yet lesser-known artists. The essays cover a wide variety of methodologies in addressing such topics as Impressionism’s global predominance at the turn of the 20th century, the relationship between Impressionism and the emergence of new media, the materials and techniques of the Impressionists, as well as the movement’s exhibition and reception history. This innovative volume also includes new discussions of modern identity in Impressionism in the contexts of race, nationality, gender, and sexuality and through its explorations of the international reach and influence of Impressionism. Part of the acclaimed Wiley Blackwell Companions to Art History series, this important addition to scholarship in this field stands as the 21st century’s first major and large-scale academic reassessment of Impressionism. Featuring essays by academics, curators, and conservators from around the world, including those from France, Germany, the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, Turkey, and Argentina, this is an invaluable text for students and scholars studying Impressionism and late 19th-century European art, Post-Impressionism, modern art, and modern French cultural history.
