Download or read book Plain Black written by Clare Rojas and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, for the first time, is a collection of the artist Clare Rojas' abstract paintings, completed between 2012 and 2015. Known for her association with a generation of San Francisco artists that became internationally prominent through the exhibition "Beautiful Losers," much of Rojas' earlier work drew from various Russian and Eastern European folkloric subjects. While the figures have been removed from this newer body of work, it is not hard to see their lasting impact on Rojas' practice; these paintings are equally evocative of folk art, sign painting and the formalist reductions of artists like Alexander Calder, Matisse or Ellsworth Kelly. Accompanying these works is an essay by the curator and writer Jens Hoffmann.Clare Rojas (b. 1976) lives and works in San Francisco. Recent solo and group exhibitions include Everyone Has Those Spaces at Kavi Gupta, Chicago; Carved, Cast, Crumpled: Sculpture All Ways at the Smart Museum of Art in Chicago; Caerulea at Paule Anglim in San Francisco, Clare Rojas at Vladmir Restoin Roitfeld in New York; Clare Rojas at Galleri Nicolai Wallner in Copenhagen, and Pith at Prism in Los Angeles. Solo museum shows include the Museum of Craft and Folk Art, San Francisco; Riverside Art Museum, CA; The Rose Art Museum, Boston; Museo De Arte Comtemporaneo De Castilla y Leon; Museum Het Domein, Sittard; Ulrich Museum of Art, Wichita; Knoxville Museum of Art and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago.

Download or read book Plain and Painted Pottery written by Olivier Nieuwenhuyse and published by Brepols Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study focuses on a major issue in Near Eastern prehistoric archaeology: the rise of the Halaf culture, ca. 5900 - 5400 cal. BC. The book presents in a detailed, quantified and lavishly illustrated manner the ceramics excavated by the National Museum of Antiquities Leiden at Tell Sabi Abyad, northern Syria. Concentrating on the 1996 - 2000 campaigns, the book also synthesizes much earlier work in order to come to a comprehensive overview. Tell Sabi Abyad thus far remains the only archaeological site in the Near East where the shift from a Pre-Halaf to an Early Halaf cultural assemblage can be followed within a continuous, meticulously stratified sequence. This shift occured during a short-lived transitional stage, radiocarbon dated at 6100-5900 cal. BC, In terms of the ceramics, this transition is characterized by the gradual replacement of plain Coarse Ware by intricately painted Fine Wares, and by numerous innovations in ceramic technology, morphology and decorative style. More than merely a pottery report, the book offers a lively discussion of past and present views on the origins of the Halaf culture. It also places the excavated ceramics in the broader socio-economic and symbolic context of Late Neolithic societies in northern Syria. Using the concepts of feasting and emulation, the study aims to gain insight in patterns of rapid ceramic innovation and change. The book is of interest not only to specialists of prehistoric pottery but to a wider archaeological audience as well.
