Abstract

"Art is often seen as a solitary, even a reclusive, endeavor. But visual artists, writers, and musicians often find themselves energized by a collective environment. Sharing ideas around a table has always provided a starting, and a continuing, place for fruitful exchanges between artists of all kinds. In her wide-ranging new book, Mary Ann Caws explores a rich variety of gathering places, past and present, which have been conducive to the release and sustenance of creative energies. Creative Gatherings surveys meeting locations across Europe and the United States, from cityscapes to island hideouts, from private homes to public cafes and artists' colonies. Examples include Florence Griswold's house in Old Lyme, Connecticut, meeting place of the Old Lyme Art Colony; Prague's Le Louvre caf , haunt of Kafka and Einstein; Picasso's modernist hangout in Barcelona, Els Quatre Gats; Charleston, gathering place of Virginia Woolf and Vanessa and Duncan Bell; and the caf s of Saint-Germain-des-Pr s and Montparnasse: the hangouts of Apollinaire, Sartre, and Patti Smith. Interweaving two hundred examples of collaborative artworks throughout the text, with more than one hundred in color, Creative Gatherings is a beautiful, erudite commingling as inspiring as the gathering places Caws depicts."--Publisher's description.

Abstract

Dieser Band präsentiert zwischen 1860 und 1960 entstandene Meisterwerke der belgischen Moderne, die größtenteils aus dem Königlichen Museum für Schöne Künste Antwerpen stammen. In der Kunst dieser Zeit wurden die Grenzen von Fantasie und Realität stets aufs Neue ausgelotet. Dabei rückten die schlichte Alltagswirklichkeit ebenso in den Fokus wie die Geheimnisse und Rätsel jenseits des Sichtbaren. Der Weg der belgischen Kunst führte von realistischen Szenen aus dem Leben des einfachen Volkes und atmosphärischen Landschaften über die fantastischen Maskeraden James Ensors bis zu den surrealen Welten von Paul Delvaux und René Magritte. Neben solch großen Namen sind unter den rund 40 versammelten Künstlern zahlreiche in Deutschland kaum bekannte Maler wie Eugène Laermans, Constant Permeke oder Rik Wouters zu entdecken. Exhibition: Kunsthalle der Hypo-Kulturstiftung, München, Germany (16.10.2021 - 06.03.2022).

Abstract

Through in-depth essays on selected issues related to the meaning of ornament and its theoretical importance for the formation of modernism especially in England, Austria, and Germany, the collection re-examines two issues in particular: on the one hand the critical discourse that appeared at the end of the nineteenth century focused on the relationship between art practice, art theory and the rising of modernism, and, on the other, the operative value ornament came to acquire in the construction, settling, and revision of the discipline of art history. The essay volume deals also with the falling into pieces of the long-sought and never-secured unity of art and ornament that marks out the entrance of modernity. Contributors to the volume treat these ill-defined aspects of the separation-process which juts forth into postmodernism. The essays, ranging from Owen Jones to Ernst Gombrich through Gottfried Semper, Alois Riegl, August Schmarsow, Wilhelm Worringer, Adolf Loos, Henry van de Velde, and Hermann Muthesius, show how artistic theories are deeply related to the art practice of their own times, and how ornament lends itself to probe historical transformations.

Abstract

Imagining the Unimaginable deftly reveals the experiences of artists and developments in mass culture and in the press against the backdrop of the broader trends in Russian politics, economics, and social life from the mid-nineteenth century to the revolution. After 1914, avant-garde artists began to imagine many things that had once seemed unimaginable. As Marc Chagall later remarked, "The war was another plastic work that totally absorbed us, which reformed our forms, destroyed the lines, and gave a new look to the universe."
