Book Description
"Hans Burkhardt was born in Basel, Switzerland in 1904. In 1924, after years of Dickensian poverty, he immigrated to New York City. Working in a furniture factory during the day, he took art classes at night. One of his teachers was Armenian immigrant Arshile Gorky, who became Burkhardt's mentor, friend and occasional collaborator. Burkhardt moved to Los Angeles in 1937 and exhibited widely until his death in 1994. Burkhardt's work ranged from lyrical naturalism to early cubist explorations to quasi-surrealist distortions to intense expressionism. In painting, drawing and printmaking, he addressed the visual delights of everyday life and the horrors of war, the truths of love and the lies of government. The diverse formal and emotional territories of his work are united by Burkhardt's humanistic vision and astonishing technical skills. He created images of sumptuous beauty and searing commentaries on the social and political issues of the time. In doing so, he made a unique and lasting contribution to 20th century art. Burkhardt used art to analyze form, to protest social inequities, and to explore the mysteries of life. He also used art as a potent teaching tool, working on the faculty at California State University, Northridge (CSUN) from 1963 to 1973, and continuing to offer weekly workshops on campus until 1990. In the 1970s and 1980s, Burkhardt made a series of gifts to the university. Now totaling almost 1,000 pieces, the CSUN Hans Burkhardt Foundation Collection is a stunning assemblage of the master artist's oeuvre. This book serves as a catalogue to the Fall 2008 exhibition of selected Burkhardt works from the CSUN Collection, and as an introduction to that collection for future students and scholars. The exhibition was organized by Betty Ann Brown, Professor of Art History in CSUN's Department of Art. Brown also edited this volume, which includes her essay, as well as contributions by Peter Selz, University of California, Berkeley Professor Emeritus of Art History; Margarita Nieto, Professor in CSUN's Department of Chicano/a Studies; and Jack Rutberg, founder and owner of Jack Rutberg Fine Arts Gallery."--Provided by publisher
