Download or read book The Experimenters written by Eva Díaz and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practically every major artistic figure of the mid-twentieth century spent some time at Black Mountain College: Harry Callahan, Merce Cunningham, Walter Gropius, Willem and Elaine de Kooning, Robert Motherwell, Robert Rauschenberg, Aaron Siskind, Cy Twombly - the list goes on and on. Yet scholars have tended to view these artists' time at the college as little more than prologue, a step on their way to greatness. With The Experimenters, Eva Diaz reveals the influence of Black Mountain College - and especially of three key instructors, Josef Albers, John Cage, and R. Buckminster Fuller - to be much greater than that. Diaz's focus is on experimentation. Albers, Cage, and Fuller, she shows, taught new models of art making that favored testing procedures rather than personal expression. The resulting projects not only reconfigured the relationships among chance, order, and design - they helped redefine what artistic practice was, and could be, for future generations. Offering a bold, compelling new angle on some of the most widely studied creative minds of the twentieth century, The Experimenters does nothing less than rewrite the story of art in the mid-twentieth century.
Download or read book Tales of the Female Perspective written by Chinbeard Books and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-04-25 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gertrude Harrington was something of a celebrity. In her 100th year, and sadly diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour, she suddenly became a much sought-after Private Detective, seconded to New Scotland Yard. She had always wanted to join the police force and kept many cuttings and articles about unsolved murders throughout her long lifetime. Playing the amateur sleuth, she believed she had solved the unsolvable. It turns out she was right. Her doctors suggested it was the tumour pressing on uncharted sections of her brain that was granting her these deductive powers. New Scotland Yard were just happy to tick off 20 unsolved cases that had eluded a conclusion. These 20 cases, contained in this anthology, may have made Sherlock Holmes think twice before setting out to solve them. But then, Sherlock Holmes wasn't a multi-tasking woman!
Download or read book Xanti Schawinsky written by Xanti Schawinsky and published by Jrp Ringier. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work of the late Swiss artist “Xanti” (Alexander) Schawinsky (1904–1979) was until recently almost inaccessible. A long legal dispute and the fact that Schawinsky's work as a teacher was so integral to his artistic praxis (rather than only presenting his work in galleries and exhibitions), explain why much of his oeuvre is to be found in just one location today. In his lifetime, Schawinsky was mainly known for his work in the theater department at the Bauhaus. In the 1930s, while teaching at Black Mountain College, a legendary art college in North Carolina that provided refuge for many European emigrants during the Nazi era, Schawinsky, building on his Bauhaus work, developed his dramatic theory known as “Spectodrama.” Involving multimedia productions that examine elementary phenomena such as space, motion, light, sound, or color from scientific, technical, and performance-based perspectives, it represents an early form of the “happening,” which would later be made famous by another affiliate of the same institution, John Cage.
