Download or read book The Spirit of Colin McCahon written by Zoe Alderton and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-27 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spirit of Colin McCahon provides a vivid historical contextualisation of New Zealand’s premier modern artist, clearly explaining his esoteric religious themes and symbols. Via a framework of visual rhetoric, this book explores the social factors that formed McCahon’s religious and environmental beliefs, and justifications as to why his audience often missed the intended point of spiritual his discourse – or chose to ignore it. The Spirit of Colin McCahon tracks the intricate process by which the artist’s body of work turned from optimism to misery, and explains the many communicative techniques he employed in order to arrest suspicion towards his Christian prophecy. More broadly, The Spirit of Colin McCahon outlines a model of analysis for the intersection of art and religion, and the place of images as rhetorical devices within Antipodean culture. The emerging field of religion and visual culture is important not only to students of New Zealand art history, but also to a growing field of appreciation for the communicative power of images. This book provides a helpful model for examining art and literature as social and religious tools, and advances the importance of visual rhetoric within studies of art and social expression.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first of an extraordinary two-volume work chronicling forty-five years of painting by New Zealand's most important artist, Colin McCahon.Colin McCahon (1919&–1987) was New Zealand's greatest twentieth-century artist. Through landscapes, biblical paintings and abstraction, the introduction of words and Maori motifs, McCahon's work came to define a distinctly New Zealand modernist idiom. Collected and exhibited extensively in Australasia and Europe, McCahon's work has not been assessed as a whole for thirty-five years.In this richly illustrated two-volume work, written in an accessible style and published to coincide with the centenary of Colin McCahon's birth, leading McCahon scholar, writer and curator Peter Simpson chronicles the evolution of McCahon's work over the artist's entire forty-five-year career.Simpson has enjoyed unprecedented access to McCahon's extensive correspondence with friends, family, dealers, patrons and others. This material enables us to begin to understand McCahon's work as the artist himself conceived it. Each volume includes over three hundred illustrations in colour, with a generous selection of reproductions of McCahon's work (many never previously published), plus photographs, catalogue covers, facsimiles and other illustrative material.This will be the definitive work on New Zealand's leading artist for many years to come.

Book excerpt: "In 1958 Colin McCahon was recognised as one of the leading painters of his generation by Auckland City Art Gallery when the McCahon:Woollaston Retrospective exhibition was shown. In his introduction to the catalogue of this exhibition, John Caselberg confirmed that Colin McCahon's paintings were 'based on a profound study of western art, an acute visual perceptiveness comparable only with the musician's sense of perfect pitch, and many years of unremitting labour, painting, testing, rejecting, learning and continually progressing. They result from the dedicated creative painter's unassuagable need and his creative ability to impose order upon disorder; to transpose insights into visual images and these in turn into works of art; to create.' Since the 'fifties, the breadth of Colin McCahon's creative achievement has become incontestable--the range of his art revealed in many exhibitions in both public and private galleries throughout New Zealand: most recently McCahon's 'Necessary Protection', organised by the Govett-Brewster Art Gallery, assisted by the Queen Elizabeth II Arts Council of New Zealand, and consisting of work done since the big McCahon Survey Exhibition, mounted by the Auckland City Art Gallery in 1972. The 'Necessary Protection' exhibition consisted for the most part of work exhibited at the Barry Lett Galleries in Auckland or the Peter McLeavey Gallery in Wellington. This exhibition is still touring in the regional galleries. In the present issue of Art New Zealand, starting on page 26, is a series of articles which discuss aspects of McCahon's work spanning four decades. Nine individual writers contribute to an understanding of his work, take up themes in it, examine his whole aesthetic, write of him as a teacher, colleague and friend. The entire section of texts on Colin McCahon has been compiled by Gordon H. Brown as contributing editor to this issue"--Page 9.

Download or read book Rethinking Dwelling written by Jeff Malpas and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last twenty years, Jeff Malpas' research has involved his engagement with architects and other academics around the issues of place, architecture and landscape and particularly the way these practitioners have used the work of Martin Heidegger. In Rethinking Dwelling, Malpas' primary focus is to rethink of these issues in a way that is directly informed by an understanding of place and the human relation it. With essays on a range of architectural and design concerns, as well as engaging with other thinkers on topics including textuality in architecture, contemporary high-rise construction, the significance of the line, the relation between building and memory and the idea of authenticity in architecture, this book departs from the traditional phenomenological focus and provides students and scholars with a new ontological assessment of landscape and architecture. As such, it may also be used on other 'spatial' or 'topographic' disciplines including geography, sociology, anthropology, and art in which the 'spatial turn' has been so important.
