Abstract

Jasper Johns zwischen 1955 und 58, zwischen Modernismus und Neo-Avantgarde: die irreduzible Zweideutigkeit einer kunsthistorischen Schwellensituation ist Ausgangspunkt einer neuen Deutung der Malerei des amerikanischen Künstlers. Jasper Johns gilt als 'Kritiker' und Überwinder des Abstrakten Expressionismus, Willem de Kooning als einer seiner wichtigsten Vertreter. Die intellektuelle Zugangsweise zur Malerei, die der erste im Vorfeld von Minimalismus und Konzeptkunst eröffnet hat, steht der emotionalen des zweiten entgegen. Der eine verglich sein Gemälde gerne mit Dingen, der andere mit lebendigen Gesichtern. Stefan Neuner schlägt aus der Konstellation der beiden Genies der neueren amerikanischen Kunst völlig neue kunstwissenschaftliche Funken.

Abstract

Honderd jaar na zijn geboorte eert Museum Prinsenhof Delft de internationaal gerenommeerde Delftse kunstenaar Bram Bogart (1921-2012) met een overzichtstentoonstelling en een boek. Bogart is als abstract expressionistisch materieschilder, de grondlegger van de Nederlandse informele schilderkunst en inspiratiebron voor Delftse kunstenaars als Jan Schoonhoven en Jan Henderikse.0Bogarts eigenzinnige oeuvre is in de publicatie kleurrijk verbeeld en verwoord. Van zijn vroege figuratieve stillevens en landschappen tot zijn late abstracte werk waarin hij op steeds groter formaat gaat werken en de verf zwaarder, dikker en bonter van kleur wordt. Een persoonlijk interview met zoon Bram van den Boogaart jr. en foto?s uit het privéarchief van de familie, geven een uniek en intiem kijkje in de wereld van deze schilder van formaat.

Abstract

Since the 1970s, it has been argued that Abstract Expressionism was exhibited abroad by the post-war US establishment in an attempt to culturally match and reinforce its newfound economic and military dominance. The account of Abstract Expressionism developed by the American critic Clement Greenberg is often identified as central to these efforts. However, this book rereads Greenberg's account through Theodor Adorno and Maurice Merleau-Ponty in order to contend that Greenberg's criticism in fact testifies to how Abstract Expressionism opposes the ends to which it was deployed. With reference not only to the most famous artists of the movement, but also female artists and artists of colour whom Greenberg himself neglected, such as Joan Mitchell and Norman Lewis, it is argued that, far from reinforcing the capitalist status quo, Abstract Expressionism engages corporeal and affective elements of experience dismissed or delegitimated by capitalism, and promises a world that would do justice to them.

Abstract

Joan Mitchell (1925-1992) n'a jamais craint d'expérimenter, créant de ce fait des œuvres d'une beauté, d'une force et d'une intensité émotionnelle inégalées. Retraçant le parcours d'une artiste majeure, cet ouvrage témoigne de la façon dont Mitchell a su élargir le champ de la peinture abstraite et éclaire les contextes qui, de part et d'autre de l'Atlantique, l'ont façonnée et ont sous-tendu son parcours. Les somptueuses illustrations qui accompagnent ce livre couvrent l'ensemble de sa carrière - des exceptionnelles peintures new-yorkaises du début des années 1950 aux majestueux polyptyques qu'elle exécutera plus tard en France. Sont reproduits ici des œuvres iconiques de Mitchell, mais aussi des tableaux rarement vus, des œuvres sur papier, des carnets de dessins et des photographies documentant sa vie, ses cercles d'amis et de relations, son environnement quotidien.

Abstract

»Dies ist die Geschichte von den genialen CIA-Boys, die die einzigen wirklichen Kunstwissenschaftler des 20. und 21. Jahrhunderts waren«. So könnte Heiner Mühlmanns provozierender Essay beginnen, der uns »das wahre Gesicht« der Kunst des 20. Jahrhunderts zeigt. Die Kurzform der Geschichte um die CIA-Boys geht ungefähr so: Als Antwort auf das »Haus der deutschen Kunst«, dem gigantischen Monument einer nationalsozialistischen Propaganda, führte der amerikanische Staat mit Hilfe des MoMA einen raffinierten Gegenschlag. Taktisches Ziel: die Sabotage der nationalsozialistischen Mobilisierungskunst mittels Konstruktion einer modernen Weltkunst. So schleusten die CIA-Kunstwissenschaftler das Massenprodukt »Abstrakter Expressionismus« in die Kunst ein. Wie gut diese Geheimwaffe funktionierte, zeigt Mühlmann an der Documenta. Hier führten kreationistische Museumskuratoren, Fluxuskünstler und Kasselbesucher fort, was die CIA sich ausgedacht hatte. Unter ihnen und gegen sie: Bazon Brock.

Abstract

A long-awaited survey of female Abstract Expressionist artists revealing the richness and lasting influence of their work. The artists Jay DeFeo, Helen Frankenthaler, Grace Hartigan, Elaine de Kooning, Lee Krasner, Joan Mitchell, and many other women played major roles in the development of Abstract Expressionism, which flourished in New York and San Francisco in the 1940s and 1950s and has been recognized as the first fully American modern art movement. Though the contributions of these women were central to American art of the twentieth century, their work has not received the same critical attention as that of their male counterparts. Women of Abstract Expressionism is a long-overdue survey. Lavishly illustrated with full-color plates emphasizing the expressive freedom of direct gesture and process at the core of the movement, this book features biographies of more than forty artists, offering insight into their lives and work. Essays by noted scholars explore the techniques, concerns, and legacies of women in Abstract Expressionism, shedding light on their unique experiences. This groundbreaking book reveals the richness of the careers of these important artists and offers keen new reflections on their work and the movement as a whole. -- Provided by publisher. This publication contains a survey of female abstract expressionist artists, revealing the richness and lasting influence of their work and the movement as a whole as well as highlighting the lack of critical attention they have received to date.

Abstract

Expressionist works on paper from the permanent collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art are presented in this volume, which documents the wealth of the Museum's holdings in that area. Many of them are published here for the first time, and several are recent additions to the collection. All are illustrated in full-page color reproductions that show the nuances of each work in great detail. The Abstract Expressionists are best known for their paintings and sculptures, and virtually all of the many publications about these artists concentrate on those large-scale works. This unique catalogue deals exclusively with their smaller, more intimate works on paper, providing many new insights about the routes that led to the Abstract Expressionists' innovative artistic accomplishments. The nineteen artists included are William Baziotes, James Brooks, Elaine de Kooning, Willem de Kooning, Arshile Gorky, Adolph Gottlieb, Philip Guston, Gerome Kamrowski, Franz Kline, Robert Motherwell, Barnett Newman, Jackson Pollock, Richard Pousette-Dart, Theodore Roszak, Mark Rothko, Anne Ryan, David Smith, Theodoros Stamos, and Mark Tobey. Each of them is discussed in a separate essay, which encompasses information about the artist's background and development, commentary about the importance of drawing in his or her oeuvre, and an analysis of each work in the selection. Also included in the essays is technical information about a number of the individual works that enhances understanding of the variety and originality of these artists' media and techniques.
