Fletcher Benton
Author: Carter Ratcliff
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
When looking at one of Fletcher Benton's pieces, the careening angles and juxtaposition of large blocks playing against the smaller delicate elements are striking, creating a chaos of impending motion. It is no coincidence that what first brought this artist international recognition was his career as a kinetic artist bringing motion to his pieces with battery-powered motors. After abruptly ending that period after thirty years, Benton has since then embraced sculpture, attracting the attention of museums and collectors from California to Italy with commissions for the Smithsonian Institute in Washington D.C to the Whitney Museum's Annual Review. A geometric sculptor whose forms invoke grids, crystals, and the structural logic of architecture allows his sculptures to hold their own "amid the glass and steel towers of the contemporary city" while being equally relevant in the vineyards and fields where they are also displayed. In this artist's monograph, Benton's lifework is discussed in three different essays each focusing on a different period in his career. It is a truly comprehensive examination of this American artist's career and how his work fits into the art timeline of the twentieth century. A full chronology, selected exhibitions and bibliography are also included to this examination of Benton's sculpture. SELLING POINTS: * Over 400 colour photographs of Benton's geometric sculptures in their natural environments so as to see the artist's intention * Includes three essays tracing the career of painter, kinetic artist and sculptor

Mosby's Rangers
Author: Jeffry D. Wert
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1439128847
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 404
Book Description
No single battalion was more feared during the Civil War than the 43rd Battalion of Virginia Cavalry. As one contemporary said, “They had…all the glamour of Robin Hood…all the courage and bravery of the ancient crusaders.” Better known as Mosby’s Rangers, they were an elite guerrilla unit that operated with stunning success in northern Virginia and Maryland from 1863 to the last days of the war. In this vivid account of the famous command of John Singleton Mosby, Jeffry D. Wert explores the personality of this iron-willed commander and brilliant tactician and gives us colorful profiles of the officers who served under him. Drawing on contemporary documents, including letters and diaries, this is the most complete and vivid account to date of the fighting unit that was so hated by General Ulysses S. Grant that he ordered any captured Ranger to be summarily executed without trial.
