Book excerpt: The German art scene's past and present enfants terrible team up for mixed-media mash-ups of painted photo images, ink-jet printouts, and customary (for both artists) energetic, thick applications of paint on large canvases.

Download or read book The Art and Politics of Asger Jorn written by Karen Kurczynski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A leading figure of the postwar avant-garde, Danish artist Asger Jorn has long been recognized for his founding contributions to the Cobra and Situationist International movements - yet art historical scholarship on Jorn has been sparse, particularly in English. This study corrects that imbalance, offering a synthetic account of the essential phases of this prolific artist?s career. It addresses his works in various media alongside his extensive writings and his collaborations with various artists' groups from the 1940s through the mid-1960s. Situating Jorn's work in an international, post-Second World War context, Karen Kurczynski reframes our understanding of the 1950s, away from the Abstract-Expressionist focus on individual expression, toward a more open-ended conception of art as a public engagement with contemporary culture and politics. Kurczynski engages with issues of interest to twenty-first-century artists and scholars, highlighting Jorn's proposition that the sensory address of art and its complex relationship to popular media can have a direct social impact. Perhaps most significantly, this study foregrounds Jorn's assertion that creativity is crucial to subjectivity itself in our increasingly mediated 'Society of the Spectacle.'
Download or read book Jonathan Meese written by David Nolan and published by Walther Konig Verlag. This book was released on 2016 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meese's work includes paintings, drawings, sculptures, and performances but also extends to writing, stage design, and directing within the field of theatre and opera. His practice addresses certain uneasy aspects of German political history and seeks to adopt ideological symbols and empty them of meaning. The subjects of his work have included Richard Wagner's three act opera Parsifal, and more recently, the American actor, John Wayne. Wayne's portrayals of unconquerable cowboys in over 80 Westerns, serve as the inspiration for a new suite of drawings entitled ERZMARSHALL. Newly conceived for the exhibition is an immersive installation that occupies an entire room. Combining painting, drawing, and sculpture, the work provides an environment in which the viewer can bear witness to Meese's wide-ranging imagination. Published on the occasion of the exhibition, Jonathan Meese: DR. TRANS-FORM-ERZ at David Nolan Gallery, New York, 27 October - 17 December 2016.

Book excerpt: Limited to 1,000 copies, each numbered and signed by the artist, each signed by the artist. Often wryly funny and just as smart, Albert Oehlen's paintings play the medium for all it's worth. After an early realization that the so-called death of painting actually freed his enthusiasm as to the number of aspects through which one could expand painting, Oehlen, got to work on a wide variety of figurative and non-objective offerings, in what he has called his post-non-representational art. In his most recent work group Oehlen expands painting through the use of blatant advertising posters whose in-your-face aesthetics he transforms with subtle brushwork. Never without a touch of tongue-in-cheek humor, his work seems to be winking at us as it dares us to change the way we look at an image. Klaus Kertess throws a light on the years from 1988 onwards, when Oehlen saw himself self-consciously as a painter and started his first abstract works, then continued to probe the limits of the medium.

Download or read book Filip Markiewicz written by Catherine Hemelryk and published by Hatje Cantz Verlag. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Während Europa und die Welt sich in der widersprüchlichen Feier wirtschaftlichen Wachstums und technischen Fortschritts als menschliches Heilsversprechen verstricken, lädt Filip Markiewicz dazu ein, in ein Universum von Zeichen und Bildern einzutauchen, die die Leere unserer aktuellen Diskurse darstellen. Seine Ausstellungen sind Bühnen, auf denen der Einzelne den Niedergang seiner eigenen Zivilisation betrachten kann. Der Mythos des Automobils endet in trostlosen Friedhöfen mit verrosteten Motoren und nutzlosen Reifen; riesige Banknoten führen das trügerisch-obszöne Spektakel der (Selbst-)Repräsentation von Politik und Medien vor. Wie der Künstler in seiner Theaterperformance Fake Fiction im Theater Basel 2017 feststellte: »Heute sind wir alle ein kleiner Bela Lugosi geworden: Der Tanz der Vampire des europäischen Bildes kann beginnen. Es ist Zeit, die Masken aufzusetzen und das digitale Blut zu trinken, bis unsere Festplatte für die Ewigkeit formatiert ist.«

Download or read book Picasso in contemporary art written by Dirk Luckow and published by Snoeck. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picasso in Contemporary Art No artist of the 20th century enjoys as much attention in the public eye as Pablo Picasso; no other artist is given the same level of attention to the form and the expressive power of their works; no other artist attracts such large numbers of visitors to the museums. Since 1912--since »Hommage à Picasso«, the Cubist Picasso Portrait by Juan Gris--the work of Pablo Picasso is challenge and incentive alike for a wide variety of artists. For generations, »Les demoiselles d'Avignon« (1907) or »Guernica« (1937) have been adapted, are appropriated in the most diverse ways, no matter what approaches the respective artists themselves might otherwise have pursued thus far. It is the inexhaustible imagination and scope in Picasso's work that challenges artists, between abstraction and figure, artistic creativity and politically intended statement, to ever-new exciting dialogues. The voluminous book is published on the occasion of the eponymous exhibition for the reopening of the renovated Nordhalle as the culmination of the 25th anniversary exhibition of the Deichtorhallen.
