: :Visual art in the period following World War II witnessed landmark transformations. Today, drawing provides a powerful and vigorous device for reexamining the art of that period, and for renewing appreciation of the extraordinary achievements of well-known artists--and for discovering others. Even though the art of these years saw radical departures and shifts, drawing, which is among the most traditional of media, played a crucial and consistent role in the work of a great majority of the most significant artists. Drawing from the Modern, 1945-1975, surveys the drawing of the period through the unparalleled holdings of the drawings collection of The Museum of Modern Art. The postwar period saw the ... |

Urs Fischer: Good Smell Make-Up Tree»rank: 863249by: Garrick Jones, Urs Fischer, Brice Marden
: :Urs Fischer's sculptures, drawings, and installations, says curator Beatrix Ruf, strike the viewer 'as if an Internet search engine had generated a massive number of hits leading to technical and mental breakdown.'

: :This first retrospective book ever presents Brice Marden's paintings and drawings from 1964 to 2002, incorporating many unpublished works. In a seminal in-depth interview, John Yau and Brice Marden explore the artist's creative development. Examining Marden's approach to the pictorial plane and his use of grids, they reflect on his relation to Abstract Expressionism, minimalism, Chinese calligraphy and the European masters. In the course of their conversation, the complex play of objectivity and subjectivity emerges as one of Marden's central issues.

Brice Marden: Paintings On Marble»rank: 1071511by: Lisa Liebmann, Brice Marden
: :This volume provides a rare glimpse into the most intimate works of the internationally acclaimed artist Brice Marden. Twenty years ago, Marden produced a series of small and virtually unknown paintings on the Greek island of Hydra, which the artist first visited in 1971. Inspired by the island's ancient marble quarries, Marden created these private paintings in oil on marble fragments as tokens for friends and family.

The period coincided with changes in his publicly exhibited paintings. In 1987, the date of his last painting ... |
