Monet/Rothko
This comparison of the works of Monet and Rothko provides exhilarating new insight on these pioneers of abstraction and masters of color. Recent research on late impressionism has highlighted the surprising correspondences between the work of impressionist paragon Claude Monet and that of abstract painters such as Mark Rothko. This book offers an unprecedented dialogue between the paintings of Monet and Rothko, two artists who explored the frontiers of abstraction. It explores the uncanny similarities between their works, painted almost half a century apart, as well as the significance of the differences between the master artists’ styles. Monet conveyed the immediacy of his impressions of...
Call It Like It Is
The world of the international rugby referee has always been a closely guarded secret ... until now. As a Durban schoolboy, Jonathan Kaplan watched rugby at Kings Park every Saturday, dreaming of the day he would represent his country. Now, three decades later and at the age of 47, he reflects on the career highs and lows that saw him retire as the most capped international, Super Rugby and Currie Cup referee of all time. But records and milestones are just a part of an intriguing memoir that affords the reader a rare glimpse into the world of international refereeing ... and what lies behind that enigmatic, penetrating glare that is as typical of Jonathan Kaplan as his silver-grey patch of ...
John Constable
Artiste romantique anglais, John Constable (1776-1837) a consacré l'ensemble de son œuvre à la peinture de paysage à une époque où toutes les normes esthétiques en vigueur incitaient à se tourner vers les sujets " grandioses " qu'offraient la peinture d'histoire. " Mon art limité et particulier, écrit Constable, se trouve au pied de chaque haie et dans chaque chemin de campagne, là où, par conséquent, personne ne pense qu'il vaut la peine d'aller le ramasser... " C'est d'abord le récit d'une vie de peintre en marge du monde et de l'institution artistique de son temps, la vie d'un artiste qui délaisse la grande Histoire pour peindre " l'histoire de ses affections ", que raconte...
Artist Complex
With the Jungian term of the complex the present volume inquires about the making of the artistic persona in twentieth-century photography. The articles examine photographic (self-)portraits, the dynamics between self-statements of artists and photographers, the interrelations of photography, of painting and of performance art and investigate their origins in the history of ideas. The volume traces a portrait of photography as a metascience; as preparatory work, a source of inspiration and an alternate medium in which artists could explore different subjects. With essays by Ulrike Blumenthal, Till Cremer, Victoria Fleury, Jadwiga Kamola, Weronika Kobylińska-Bunsch, Nadja Köffler, Constance Krüger, Wilma Scheschonk, Gerd Zillner.
Maria Helena Vieira da Silva
Portuguese-born painter Maria Helena Vieira da Silva became an integral member of the expressive abstract movement in Paris following the Second World War. Studying and assimilating the early Modern styles of Cubism, Geometric Abstraction and Futurism, she embraced ambiguity between lyrical and geometric form in amalgamations of illusionistic space and defined her own personal visual vocabulary.0This catalogue is published on the occasion of a landmark travelling exhibition of important works by Vieira da Silva, produced in collaboration by Waddington Custot in London, Jeanne Bucher Jaeger in Paris, and Di Donna Galleries in New York. 0Bilingual in English and French language, the publication includes a biography, colour plates and two essays on the work of Vieira da Silva, written by Kent Minturn, Visiting Assistant Professor at The Institute of Fine Arts, NYU; and French art historian Pierre Wat. 00Exhibition: Jeanne Bucher Jaeger, Paris, France (20.09-61.11.2019) / Waddington Custot, London, UK (30.11.2019-15.02.2020) / Di Donna Galleries, New York, USA (26.13-29.05.2020).
