Book excerpt: "Often understated, the emotional force of Raoul De Keyser's cryptic and highly lyrical paintings is undeniable. Composed of very basic geometric shapes that hover between abstraction and figuration, many of De Keyser's works seem to hint at forms just out of focus, spaces impossible to inhabit. Their power lies in their ability to suggest through simple gestures, and to compel intense contemplation. Since his death in 2012, De Keyser's stature as a painter has only continued to grow, as has his influence on a younger generation of European painters. Raoul De Keyser: Drift is published on the occasion of the eponymous show at David Zwirner, first presented at the London gallery in November 2015 and traveling to New York in 2016. Curated by Ulrich Loock, who contributes the catalogue's text, the exhibition is organized around a group of twenty-two paintings that the artist completed shortly before his death. Collectively, these works have become known as The Last Wall. Imposing stark material and formal limitations, De Keyser was able to revisit in this body of work many of the major subjects and themes that occupied him throughout his nearly fifty-year career: the inconspicuous things close at hand, the landscape of the low lands where he grew up and lived all his life, and the partition of the picture plane. This elegant catalogue presents plates and details of a careful selection of paintings, beginning in the 1970s, that emphasizes the tentative way De Keyser chose to explore his themes--never approaching anything directly, hinting rather than demonstrating. Taken together, Raoul De Keyser: Drift reveals an uncompromising artist who continued to pose new aesthetic problems for himself--even at the end of his life--and managed to come up with original and deeply moving solutions."--Publisher's description.

Book excerpt: Since 1964, the Belgian painter Raoul De Keyser has been building a highly personal body of work that is exceptionally difficult to categorize. With great individuality, he has successfully reconciled a number of apparent contradictions: figuration versus abstraction, the physicality of paint versus the ephemerality of the image, and exploration of the fundamentals of painting versus references to his personal life and surroundings. Since 1980 De Keyser sets off resolutely down his own path and also marked the beginning of his steadily growing success.
Book Synopsis Raoul De Keyser by : Raoul De Keyser
Download or read book Raoul De Keyser written by Raoul De Keyser and published by Walther Konig Verlag. This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication presents 59 watercolours which Raoul De Keyser made between 2000 and 2008. Watercolours are one part of this eminent painter's Œuvre that has to date remained virtually unknown to the wider public. As Ulrich Loock argues in his essay, his paintings are triggered usually by a specific observation, location, or situation, by a painterly precedent or an object belonging to his close environment which is then embraced and consumed by the particular work or group of works on their way to gain a sort of self-sufficiency. While the watercolours are one part of Raoul De Keyser's Œuvre and share the concerns he is engaged with in his painted work, they belong at the same time to a field of experimentation which presents clues for his paintings.

Book Synopsis Albers and Morandi: Never Finished by : Josef Albers
Download or read book Albers and Morandi: Never Finished written by Josef Albers and published by David Zwirner Books. This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unprecedented catalogue exploring the formal and visual affinities and contrasts between Josef Albers and Giorgio Morandi—two of modern art’s greatest painters. Rarely seen together, the artworks of Josef Albers (1888–1976) and Giorgio Morandi (1890–1964) share many similarities. Although they never met, both artists worked in series as they explored difference and potential through their distinctive treatment of color, shape, form, and morphology. They were also both influenced by Cezanne. As master illusionists and experts in proportion, they tackled similar conceits from different perspectives. Albers focused on the effects of subtle or bold changes and interactions in color, while Morandi made still lifes that treat simple objects as a cast of characters on a stage, exploring their relationship in space. Published on the occasion of the critically acclaimed exhibition Albers and Morandi: Never Finished at David Zwirner New York in 2021, the book illuminates the visual conversation between these two artists. With the exhibition hailed by The New Yorker’s Peter Schjeldahl as “one of the best … I’ve ever seen,” this publication brings this unusual, thought-provoking pairing to your home. Gorgeous reproductions are accompanied by a roundtable about form and color between the exhibition’s curator, David Leiber; Heinz Liesbrock, the director of the Josef Albers Museum Quadrat Bottrop; and Nicholas Fox Weber, the executive director of The Josef and Anni Albers Foundation, as well as an essay by Laura Mattioli, the Morandi expert and founder of the Center for Italian Modern Art.

Book Synopsis Raoul De Keyser by : Raoul de Keyser
Download or read book Raoul De Keyser written by Raoul de Keyser and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The mostly abstract oeuvre of Belgian painter Raoul De Keyser (*1930 in Deinze) has met with resounding international approval since the eighties. This monograph presents works from a creative period lasting for more than forty years. De Keyser's painting has been influenced by the modernism of the postwar years: although his compositions are reserved and austere, and make reference to Color Field painting and Minimalism, they are nevertheless extraordinarily poetic. The artist is a sovereign of painting who does not concentrate on cultivating a specific style, but rather explores the entire field of painting and its expressive possibilities. De Keyser's mono- or dichromatic arrangements, his abstract formal compositions and citations from everyday life and nature illustrate the broad field of painterly possibilities as well as their constantly expanding boundaries."--Publisher's description.
Download or read book Carol Rhodes written by Carol Rhodes and published by Skira Editore. This book was released on 2018-08-28 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The significant body of work that Carol Rhodes has produced over the past twenty five years assimilates and moves beyond two major critical impasses for modern painting: photography and pure abstraction. Rhodes makes small-scale paintings depicting, from aerial viewpoints, encounters between the natural environment and human intervention, fictional syntheses resulting from a re-mixing of photographic sources. Finding beauty in deserted and apparently alienating places, her paintings allow us to contemplate our own relationship to the world around us. Carol Rhodes was born in Edinburgh in 1959 and spent her early years in India. She returned to Scotland to study at Glasgow School of Art. She has lived and worked in Glasgow ever since, and has played an important role in the cultural life of that city.

Book Synopsis James Bishop Paintings on Paper by : Michael Semff
Download or read book James Bishop Paintings on Paper written by Michael Semff and published by Büro Sieveking. This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: - In-depth look at James Bishop's outstanding oeuvre: poetic, abstract paintings on paper - The art critic John Ashbery very aptly describes Bishop's work as "half architecture, half air" James Bishop can be called the only real painter of his generation still alive. He has developed a unique, poetic, and sensitive visual vocabulary, and describes himself as "an Abstract Expressionist of the quieter kind." Bishop likes to have his art speak for him, as he believes it has a language of its own: "Artists should neither be seen nor heard, with the exception of opera singers, of course." Although Bishop began his career with stronger colors on large canvases, which speak for themselves, he soon turned to earth tones, and then later grays in square, mostly unmodified, smaller formats. This tendency toward reduction has remained constant from the 1960s until just recently, especially with regard to individual works on paper. Bishop has been on a persistent search for an aesthetic balance among opposing factors: drawing and painting, opacity and transparence, two and three dimensions, open forms and simple tectonic elements. In his work he has succeeded in compellingly interweaving these opposing forces into a subtle tonal relationship, creating a miniature-like, intimate aura. Text in English and German. Contents: Emotional viewing - by Erich Franz; "Bishop's Expressiveness" by Molly Warnock; Biography; Exhibition List.

Book excerpt: "One of Poland's preeminent postwar artists, Andrzej Wróblewski (1927-1957) created a highly individual and prolific form of abstract and figurative painting. During his short life, Wróblewski was torn between political involvement and artistic experimentation. His output reflects the original solutions he devised to address the personal and public issues of his time, in ways that are very relevant today and continue to inspire artists. This volume, with contributions by a team of international scholars, presents a thorough re-evaluation of his work and its legacy, in the context of a globalized art history."--Back cover.
