Book Synopsis Dorothy Iannone by : Dorothy Iannone
Download or read book Dorothy Iannone written by Dorothy Iannone and published by Jrp Ringier. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1960s, Dorothy Iannone has occupied herself with the attempt to represent ecstatic love: 'the union of gender, feeling and pleasure,' as she herself describes it. Today, her oeuvre encompasses paintings, drawings, collages, video sculptures, objects, and publications. A narrative element, fed with personal mythologies, experiences, feelings, and relationships, runs through all of her works.Particularly in her late figurative painting, which almost appears to dissolve into the ornamental, she creates scenarios in symbolic settings. Since the 1960s, this visual self-empowerment has been read as a contribution to the liberalization of female sexuality. On the other hand, Iannone, who takes a spiritual, existential approach, has never seen herself as part of a feminist movement.This publication sheds light on Iannone's work in relation to censorship, based on her artist's book The Story of Bern. In spring 1969, the artist was confronted with the confiscation of her works in the exhibition Freunde (Friends) at Kunsthalle Bern, under the directorship of Harald Szeemann. Iannone responded to this boycott by producing a book, in which she made her perspective public and thus reclaimed self-determination over the content-related and formal aspects of her work, which had been labeled controversial.Published with Migros Museum for Contemporary Art, Zurich.English and German text.
Book Synopsis A Visual History of Illustration by : Andrew Hall
Download or read book A Visual History of Illustration written by Andrew Hall and published by . This book was released on 2021-08-17 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major new history of illustration that follows this artistic and professional practice across four centuries and through diverse traditions, cultures, and contexts For centuries, illustrators have worked in a wide variety of industries, including fashion, publishing, advertising, education, entertainment, science, food, interior design, architecture, and medicine. Although illustration shares the same fundamental visual language as fine art, it is created as the result of a client-led brief, with imposed parameters and for an intended audience. In this visually lavish book, Andrew Hall presents a chronological, international survey of the history of illustration, revealing the broad connections of this discipline with technological innovation, political events, patterns of trade and travel, and cultural influences. Hall begins with the eighteenth-century political satire of Gillray, Rowlandson, and Cruikshank, and continues through the early illustrated children's books of Greenaway, Allingham, and Shippen Green; the magazine work and advertisements of Mucha and Toulouse-Lautrec; the modernism of Lempicka and Cassandre; the countercultural images of Glaser, Douglas, Wilson, and Robbins; the late twentieth-century illustrations of Crumb, Baseman, Ware, and Pettibon; and the most recent work of Marjane Satrapi and Shepard Fairey, among many others. The evolution of illustration is also one of print culture, and Hall examines the technologies of intaglio relief, engraving, lithography, screen printing, and digital paper printing; as well as the application of illustration to areas such as botany, album covers, graphic novels, animation, gaming, and infographics. He explores the role of illustration in relation to the two industrial revolutions, the abuses of the slave trade and colonialism, the two world wars, and political activism; and the relationship between illustration, photography, and the fine arts. Sumptuous and comprehensive, A Visual History of Illustration offers a remarkable look at how artists have long created illustrated images to mirror and comment upon their times, allowing a way for others to consider and understand the world.

Book Synopsis Early Illustrated Books by : Alfred W. Pollard
Download or read book Early Illustrated Books written by Alfred W. Pollard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Illustrated Books: A History of the Decoration and Illustration of Books in the 15th and 16th Centuries This little book was written nearly a quarter of a century ago in the enthusiasm of a first acquaintance with a fascinating subject, and with an honest endeavour to see for myself as many as possible of the books I set out to describe. If I had tried to rewrite it now I might have made it more interesting to experts, but at the cost of destroying whatever merit it possesses as an introductory sketch. I have therefore been content to correct, as thoroughly as I could, its many small errors (not all of my own making), more especially those due to the ascription of books to impossible dates and printers, which before the publication of Robert Proctor's Index to the Early Printed Books in the British Museum, in 1898, was very difficult to avoid. In these emendations, and in getting the titles of foreign books into better form, I have had much kind help from Mr. Victor Scholderer of the British Museum. I am grateful also to Mr. E. Gordon Duff for his leave to use again the chapter on English Illustrated Books which he kindly wrote for me for the first edition.
