Book excerpt: Eberhard Havekost makes dense, anti-gestural paintings that explore the tension between a highly mediated image and the visceral immediacy of a seductively painted surface. Working from shots from TV and video, images from magazines and catalogues and his own photographs, he selects subjects ranging from anonymous buildings, trains and trailers, and modifies them - sometimes just painting a section of the image - to make inkjet prints as the departure point for his paintings.

Download or read book Eberhard Havekost written by Eberhard Havekost and published by Schirmer Mosel. This book was released on 2007 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eberhard Havekost is the youthful shooting star of the internationally acclaimed Leipzig School. His images, dubbed "photoshop realism" by critics are cool and distanced. Havekost makes the on-screen computer image the direct subject of his painting. The user interface is his painterly theme and how the images appear on it, electronically manipulated, or rather beautified and illuminated from behind. Simple, almost trivial objects filtered electronically and mutated are painted to canvas by Havekost. Mutants of reality transformed into paintings that exude a mysterious bleakness. Our book, edited and complete with an introduction by Berlin art expert Heiner Bastian, offers an overview of Havekost's oeuvre to date and is being published on the occasion of an exhibition at Anton Kern Gallery, New York.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “In Ana Patova Crosses a Bridge, it’s the sentence that is alive and that is also a kind of architecture or landscape.” —Amina Cain “Ana Patova Crosses a Bridge is the third volume of Renee Gladman's magnificent, melancholy series about the city-state of Ravicka, or about the architectures of its absence. It is tempting to read the Ravickian books as an extended allegory—of architecture itself, perhaps, except that architecture is already half-allegorical, its every element raised to prefigure whatever meanings can make their way to them. If any can. In Ravicka, meanings—indeed most contact of any kind—remain in abeyance, building, in absentia, the constitutive negative spaces of the narrative. There is a plot; it lays out zones of sheer ambience. Experiences, of which there are many, unfold as a redolent lingering in the structures of immateriality, the radical realities of the insubstantial. Gladman is a philosopher of architecture, though not that of buildings. Rather, she thinks (and writes) the drifts, partitions, and immobilities of identity, affect, communication, the very possibility of being human. Profound, compelling—haunting, even—the story of Ravicka is astonishingly ours.” (Lyn Hejinian)

Download or read book Philip Guston written by Craig Burnett and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2014-02-28 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illustrated examination of Philip Guston's comic and complex painting The Studio. Throughout his career, Philip Guston's work metamorphosed from figural to abstract and back to figural. In the 1950s, Guston (1913–1980) produced a body of shimmering abstract paintings that made him—along with Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, and Franz Kline—an influential abstract expressionist of the “gestural” tendency. In the late 1960s, with works like The Studio came his most radical shift. Drawing from the imagery of his early murals and from elements in his later drawings, ignoring the prevailing “coolness” of Minimalism and antiform abstraction, Guston invented for these late works a cast of cartoon-like characters to articulate a vision that was at once comic, crude, and complex. In The Studio, Guston offers a darkly comic portrait of the artist as a hooded Ku Klux Klansman, painting a self-portrait. In this concise and generously illustrated book, Craig Burnett examines The Studio in detail. He describes the historical and personal motivations for Guston's return to figuration and the (mostly negative) critical reaction to the work from Hilton Kramer and others. He looks closely at the structure of The Studio, and at the influence of Piero della Francesca, Manet, and Krazy Kat, among others; and he considers the importance of the column of smoke in the painting—as a compositional device and as a ghost of abstraction and metaphysics. The Studio signals not only Guston's own artistic evolution but a broader shift, from the medium-centric and teleological claim of modernism to the discursive, carnivalesque, and mucky world of postmodernism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An NYRB Classics Original Winner of the 2014 PEN Translation Prize Winner of the 2014 Read Russia Prize The stakes are wildly high in Sigizmund Krzhizhanovsky’s fantastic and blackly comic philosophical fables, which abound in nested narratives and wild paradoxes. This new collection of eleven mind-bending and spellbinding tales includes some of Krzhizhanovsky’s most dazzling conceits: a provincial journalist who moves to Moscow finds his existence consumed by the autobiography of his room’s previous occupant; the fingers of a celebrated pianist’s right hand run away to spend a night alone on the city streets; a man’s lifelong quest to bite his own elbow inspires both a hugely popular circus act and a new refutation of Kant. Ordinary reality cracks open before our eyes in the pages of Autobiography of a Corpse, and the extraordinary spills out.

Download or read book Landscapes After Ruskin written by and published by Hirmer Verlag GmbH. This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Ruskin was an influential English art critic and social thinker of the Victorian era, who famously argued that the principal concern of the artist is "truth to nature." For Ruskin, this truth entailed more than merely adept technical representation, but rather, should depict the natural world as mankind experiences it, with all the sensations of both beauty and terror it elicits. Today, in a world overwhelmed by industrial development and environmental uncertainty, contemporary artists are discovering new beauties and terrors associated with nature, invoking a sense of the sublime that is uniquely modern. Landscapes after Ruskin explores how a joyful experience of nature is now mixed with a particular dread as the earth and its atmosphere are increasingly touched by human activity. This striking volume probes the contemporary sites of the new sublime--from a steel factory couched in a nature park to the aerial view of a bombed city, and from mutating chromosomes to construction sites in suburbia--through essays by artists, photographers, and art historians, as well as experts in environmental studies and philosophy. Featuring more than fifty awe-inspiring artworks--from world-renowned artists such as Georg Baselitz, Joseph Beuys, Katherine Bradford, Christo, Gustave Courbet, Spencer Finch, Eric Fischl, Andreas Gursky, Naoya Hatakeyama, Anselm Kiefer, Bruce Nauman, Raymond Pettibon, Gerhard Richter, Thomas Ruff, Joel Sternfeld, and Ai Weiwei--Landscapes after Ruskin offers compelling, and at times chilling, insight into the truth of the natural world today.

Book excerpt: Features essays by Katherine Gates, Anthony Haden-Guest, Jack Sargent and Asia Argento.

Barnum to outsider artist Henry Darger and Gangs of New York-era mass-murderer Albert Hicks.
