Book excerpt: Sir Anthony Caro revolutionized the medium of sculpture in the 1960s when he moved away from making elaborately modelled, figurative works cast in bronze, instead creating large, abstract assemblages out of prefabricated steel and aluminum elements. Sculpture Laid Bare?honours the legacy of this titan of modernist sculpture. Monumental in scale, lyrically evocative and openly constructed, Caro's sculptures foreground their brute materiality and the unvarnished signs of their manufacture. Anthony Caro: Sculpture Laid Bare showcases four of Caro's late sculptures, some of the most ambitious the artist has ever produced as well as earlier work to demonstrate both the continuity and the divergences with the most recent sculptures. Also included in the book are essays by Kenneth Brummel and New York-based curator and critic Karen Wilkin that consider Caro's sculptures from the perspective of his studio practice and his previous work.

Book excerpt: "The decision to show these drawings with sculptures in the Madison Avenue gallery came from the wish to demonstrate the consistency of Caro's vision, the directing force and energy within the sculptures on view [...] Caro's drawings from the 1950s were neither preliminary sketches for sculptures nor were they imaginary sculptures but these exploratory exercises on newsprint were carefully preserved. They now provide a reminder of the thrill of the creative process when free from the practicalities of contruction."--Page 19.

Download or read book Anthony Caro written by Karen Wilkin and published by Lund Humphries Publishers Limited. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the sixth volume in Lund Humphries' series of monographs on British sculptor Anthony Caro and the first publication to focus on his use of stainless steel as a distinct body of work.0Caro employed stainless steel extensively, from intimately scaled Table Sculptures to extremely large works, over many decades, and in his mature works, Caro's exploration and interrogation of this material became increasingly important. 0Karen Wilkin analyses Caro's use of stainless steel in the context of the development of modernist constructed sculpture, pioneered in the UK by Caro and in the US by David Smith, a friend and admired predecessor, from whom Caro inherited most of the stainless steel he first employed, following Smith's untimely death in 1965. 0Karen Wilkin's text represents a much-needed overview of Caro's late career and a vital expansion of our understanding of 20th-century and early 21st-century modernist sculpture.

Download or read book Sea Music written by Stephen Feeke and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1991, when Anthony Caro's (1924-2013), Sea Music was officially launched by Lord Palumbo, completion of Antony Gormley's, Angel of the North was seven years away. Sea Music may be seen as a forerunner of this and other iconic public sculptural projects.However, only thanks to the extraordinary generosity and determination of a group of committed individuals and organisations did this major site-specific work by one of the greatest sculptors of the late twentieth century find its way onto the quayside in the town of Poole on the South coast of England.The fascinating story of how this happened is told here in Alastair Sooke's illuminating essay, and recalled by Caro himself in a previously unpublished note written in 1991.The reason for publishing this book now is that, after over 25 years of standing up to Poole's harsh maritime climate, Sea Music has been conserved and repainted and is being justly celebrated through a programme of art and heritage activities.This catalogue celebrates the restoration of Caro's, Sea Music sculpture in Poole (revealed in spring 2017), and is also published to coincide with an exhibition of the artist's, Concerto Series at Poole Museum (13 May - 15 October 2017).

Book Synopsis Dialectical Materialism by : Jonathan Vernon
Download or read book Dialectical Materialism written by Jonathan Vernon and published by . This book was released on 2020-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dialectical Materialism: Aspects of British Sculpture Since the 1960s, conceived by Karsten Schubert, is a bold, subtle and imaginative intervention into this complex subject, reconsidering its terrain through a small selection of artists and objects. In doing so, it focuses on objects more than contexts, on the art work not the art school.The title has two parts. The first part: Dialectical Materialism, a much debated term drawn from Hegel and Marxist political philosophy, is deployed here to point to the dynamic and generative forces of opposition and reaction that have charged and driven the making of much sculpture in Britain since the post-war years.In the essay that follows, Jonathan Vernon looks into the potential of this concept in relation to the developing treatment of material, space and object-hood found in British sculpture since 1960.The second part: Aspects of British Sculpture, is drawn from Herbert Read's introduction to the catalogue of British Pavilion for the XXVI Venice Biennale in 1952. In this text, (which championed the work of Lynn Chadwick, Eduardo Paolozzi, and Henry Moore among others), Read coined the phrase the 'Geometry of Fear' to evoke these artists' curious crab-like sculptures which he imagined 'scuttling across the floors of silent seas'.A compelling phrase, Surrealist in spirit and existentialist in outlook, it captured the mood of the moment, pointing to a poetics of paradox and contradiction. 'Geometry' - order, reason and beauty, is paired with 'Fear' - the forces of chaos, anxiety and doubt.The exhibition takes up the potentialities of juxtapositions such as this, exploring pairings and dialogues, and celebrating the creative and highly productive tensions that can lie both within and between sculptures and sculptors in this period.Including the work of six sculptors: William Turnbull (1922-2012), Anthony Caro (1924-2013), Barry Flanagan (1941-2004), Richard Long (b. 1945), Alison Wilding (b. 1948) and Rachel Whiteread (b. 1963). Each of them are represented both by large and smaller works.Published on the occasion of the exhibition, Aspects of British Sculpture at Park Village Studios, 1 Park Village East, London NW1 (28 September - 6 October 2019).

Download or read book Aspects written by Edward A. Vazquez and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2018-01-02 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stretching lengths of yarn across interior spaces, American artist Fred Sandback (1943–2003) created expansive works that underscore the physical presence of the viewer. This book, the first major study of Sandback, explores the full range of his art, which not only disrupts traditional conceptions of material presence, but also stages an ethics of interaction between object and observer. Drawing on Sandback’s substantial archive, Edward A. Vazquez demonstrates that the artist’s work—with all its physical slightness and attentiveness to place, as well as its relationship to minimal and conceptual art of the 1960s—creates a link between viewers and space that is best understood as sculptural even as it almost surpasses physical form. At the same time, the economy of Sandback’s site-determined practice draws viewers’ focus to their connection to space and others sharing it. As Vazquez shows, Sandback’s art aims for nothing less than a total recalibration of the senses, as the spectator is caught on neither one side nor the other of an object or space, but powerfully within it.
Book Synopsis The Collected Essays and Criticism, Volume 4 by : Clement Greenberg
Download or read book The Collected Essays and Criticism, Volume 4 written by Clement Greenberg and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clement Greenberg is widely recognized as the most influential and articulate champion of modernism during its American ascendency after World War II, the period largely covered by these highly acclaimed volumes of The Collected Essays and Criticism. Volume 3: Affirmations and Refusals presents Greenberg's writings from the period between 1950 and 1956, while Volume 4: Modernism with a Vengeance gathers essays and criticism of the years 1957 to 1969. The 120 works range from little-known pieces originally appearing Vogue and Harper's Bazaar to such celebrated essays as "The Plight of Our Culture" (1953), "Modernist Painting" (1960), and "Post Painterly Abstraction" (1964). Preserved in their original form, these writings allow readers to witness the development and direction of Greenberg's criticism, from his advocacy of abstract expressionism to his enthusiasm for color-field painting. With the inclusion of critical exchanges between Greenberg and F. R. Leavis, Fairfield Porter, Thomas B. Hess, Herbert Read, Max Kozloff, and Robert Goldwater, these volumes are essential sources in the ongoing debate over modern art. For each volume, John O'Brian has furnished an introduction, a selected bibliography, and a brief summary of events that places the criticism in its artistic and historical context.

Chapters are arranged thematically, and each page displays several examples (in color) of work under discussion. The final section, a lexicon of artists, includes a small bandw photo of each artist, as well as biographical information and details of work, writings, and exhibitions. Ruhrberg and the three other authors are veteran art historians, curators, and writers, as is editor Walther. c. Book News Inc.
