Download or read book Ellsworth Kelly: Catalogue Raisonné of Paintings, Reliefs, and Sculpture written by Ellsworth Kelly and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2016-03-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The insightful, gorgeously illustrated first volume of the most important publication to date on Ellsworth Kelly’s work Written by Ellsworth Kelly scholar Yve-Alain Bois in direct collaboration with the artist, this comprehensive multivolume publication contains exhaustive documentation of each of Kelly's paintings, sculptures, and reliefs. The catalogue includes insightful texts and high-quality images of individual works and preparatory drawings, along with provenance information, exhibition history, and bibliographic information. Encompassing Kelly's work up to his return to the United States from France in 1954, the present volume covers the artist's formative years as a student at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and as a young artist living in Paris, where he began painting the abstract forms which would later define his career. Kelly’s remarkable pace of production during this early period resulted in an especially diverse oeuvre, which is discussed in depth throughout this publication. In Bois’s words, “This diversity is the main reason many of the works examined in this volume are discussed at such length and in such detail: In almost every case, the particular question the artist was addressing, and the formal solution he devised for it, was entirely novel to him.”

This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second volume of a comprehensive account of the work of Ellsworth Kelly, encompassing his early years in New York Authored by Kelly scholar Yve-Alain Bois in direct collaboration with the late artist's partner and estate, this comprehensive publication contains exhaustive documentation of the work of American artist Ellsworth Kelly (1923-2015), including his paintings, sculptures and reliefs. Picking up where the first volume left off, this publication follows Kelly from his return to New York from France in 1954 through his early years living in the artist community of downtown Coenties Slip, where he shared a studio with friend and fellow abstract painter Agnes Martin. During this formative period spent in New York City, Kelly's style evolved beyond the foundation of his French Cubist and modernist influences and into a distinctive abstract style which fused large-format painting with a study of shapes and planar masses. By 1958, Kelly's practice had also expanded to include sculpture, a craft inspired by conversations with his studio-mate Agnes Martin, and which would go on to be a primary medium through which Kelly's later work is understood. The evolution of Kelly's style experienced during the years chronicled in this publication provided a much-needed bridge from the abstraction of the 1940s to the minimalism of the 1960s. The publication includes insightful texts and high-quality images of individual works and preparatory drawings, along with provenance information, exhibition history and bibliographic information, making it an indispensable reference tool for institutions, collectors and admirers.

Book Synopsis A Passion for Art by : Ernst Beyeler
Download or read book A Passion for Art written by Ernst Beyeler and published by Scheidegger and Spiess. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ernst Beyeler (1921-2010) was a titan of the international art scene in the twentieth century. Born in Basel, Switzerland, he began his career as an apprentice in an antiquarian bookstore, eventually taking over the business and shifting his focus from books to dealing and collecting art. Through his discerning eye for art, his close relationships with many of the twentieth century's great artists, and his role in the foundation of Art Basel, the world's largest art fair, Beyeler transformed his hometown into a hub for international art. Published in English for the first time, A Passion for Art tells Beyeler's unusually personal story, through interviews with Christophe Mory. Beyeler describes the evolution of his career and his encounters with artists such as Picasso, Alberto Giacometti, and Francis Bacon. He also speaks in detail about his own collection, which focuses mainly on twentieth-century artists like Matisse, Mondrian, Klee, and Dubuffet. This art collection is the basis for the Fondation Beyeler, a museum designed by Renzo Piano that houses over 150 pieces of art handpicked by Beyeler. Offering deep insight into the contemporary art trade and presenting an intimate portrait of Beyeler himself, A Passion for Art provides a new and distinctive perspective on the postwar European art world.

Book excerpt: "Ellsworth Kelly describes the thirty wood sculptures he created over the span of four decades between 1958 and 1996 as his 'totems.' Far less known than his other works, these sculptures have a talismanic intimacy for Kelly that distinguish them from the rest of his oeuvre. Ellsworth Kelly: Wood Sculptures represents a retrospective of these wood sculptures for the first time, investigating the development of this intensely personal expression of Kelly's commitment to abstract art--and to nature. Many of these wood sculptures, now in private collections, are rarely seen and hardly known by the public. Accompanying a major exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, in 2011, this book speaks to the artist's lifetime of acute observation and how deeply 'of nature' his work has always been." -- Publisher's description

Book Synopsis Ellsworth Kelly by : Ellsworth Kelly
Download or read book Ellsworth Kelly written by Ellsworth Kelly and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paintings of Ellsworth Kelly (born 1923) are famous for their hard edges, minimalist abstraction and above all, their bright, vibrant colors. Less known are the black-and-white drawings, collages and paintings that preceded or accompanied many of them, despite the fact that they make up roughly 20 percent of his total output. Ellsworth Kelly: Black & White and the exhibition it accompanies bring together the artist's color-free work for the first time, and offer a fresh take on his long career, emphasizing his use of shape, contrast, texture and his incorporation of such everyday objects as a broken windowpane, a handrail shadow or the leaf of a plant into his abstraction. This catalogue makes clear that the scale of contrast between black and white was key to Kelly's artistic self-discovery and subsequent development, and is crucial to any proper understanding of his oeuvre.
Book Synopsis Painting as Model by : Yve-Alain Bois
Download or read book Painting as Model written by Yve-Alain Bois and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1993-05-04 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Informed by both structuralism and poststructuralism, these essays by art critic and historian Yve Alain Bois seek to redefine the status of theory in modernist critical discourse. Warning against the uncritical adoption of theoretical fashions and equally against the a priori rejection of all theory, Bois argues that theory is best employed in response to the specific demands of a critical problem. The essays lucidly demonstrate the uses of various theoretical approaches in conjunction with close reading of both paintings and texts.

Download or read book Marcel Broodthaers: Industrial Poems written by and published by Hatje Cantz. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first complete catalog of Broodthaers' rebus-like poetical plaques Industrially fabricated as vacuum-formed plastic plaques, the Industrial Poemsof Marcel Broodthaers (1924-76) express the enduring fruitfulness of poetry as a paradigm in the poet-turned-artist's witty, language-oriented brand of conceptualism. These works draw on the popular visual language of commercial signage, incorporating symbols, images, letters, words and punctuation that often refer to earlier poems and artworks. As mass-manufactured signs produced in a popular material such as plastic, the Industrial Poemspartake of a visual and material clarity that belies the strongly enigmatic character of their associative semantic functioning. This 400-page volume compiles for the first time a comprehensive inventory of all the Industrial Poems. These are supplemented by a selection of Broodthaers' own writings and his "open letters," along with essays that situate the Industrial Poemsin relation to each other and the artist's oeuvre generally.
Book Synopsis Conservation of Modern Oil Paintings by : Klaas Jan van den Berg
Download or read book Conservation of Modern Oil Paintings written by Klaas Jan van den Berg and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artists’ oil paints have become increasingly complex and diverse in the 20th Century, applied by artists in a variety of ways. This has led to a number of issues that pose increasing difficulties to conservators and collection keepers. A deeper knowledge of the artists’ intent as well as processes associated with material changes in paintings is important to conservation, which is almost always a compromise between material preservation and aesthetics. This volume represents 46 peer-reviewed papers presented at the Conference of Modern Oil Paints held in Amsterdam in 2018. The book contains a compilation of articles on oil paints and paintings in the 20th Century, partly presenting the outcome of the European JPI project ‘Cleaning of Modern Oil Paints’. It is also a follow-up on ‘Issues in Contemporary Oil Paint’ (Springer, 2014). The chapters cover a range of themes and topics such as: patents and paint manufacturing in the 20th Century; characterization of modern-contemporary oil paints and paint surfaces; artists’ materials and techniques; the artists’ voice and influence on perception of curators, conservators and scientists; model studies on paint degradation and long term stability; approaches to conservation of oil paintings; practical surface treatment and display. The book will help conservators and curators recognise problems and interpret visual changes on paintings, which in turn give a more solid basis for decisions on the treatment of these paintings.
