Book Description
Welchen Stellenwert hat die Kopie im Verhältnis zum Original? Welche Rolle spielt das Original, wenn es hinter perfekten Reproduktionen verschwindet? Wie beeinflussen mediale Umsetzungen die Wahrnehmung? Ane Mette Hols Kunst stellt diese Fragen, indem sie exakte Doppelgänger von Bildern, Fotografien, Texten, Filmen oder Buchseiten erstellt. Das ist durch Hols reduzierte Präzision auch fesselnd. In ihrer Paradoxalität sind ihre Werke (nicht) Magrittes Pfeife für das 21. Jahrhundert. Auch die Publikation arbeitet mit dieser Strategie: Sie bietet nicht nur eine Werkschau der letzten zwei Schaffensjahre Hols, sondern wird auch selbst Teil dieses dialektischen Spiels. Einige der Buchseiten hat Hol selbst noch einmal reproduziert, um sie als kopierte Originale einer Kopie in den Katalog zu integrieren.

Subversion and Surrealism in the Art of Honoré Sharrer
Author: M. Melissa Wolfe
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300223137
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
"This book offers the first critical reassessment of an artist whose mature oeuvre constitutes a rich and often disquieting critique that is equal parts wit, seduction, and bite. Honorae Sharrer (1920-2009) was a major figure in the years surrounding World War II, though her commitment to leftist ideals and an alternate trajectory of surrealism put her at increasing odds with the political and artistic climate of the time"--

Scott, Brandtner, Eveleigh, Webber
Author: Esther Trépanier
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 0228015960
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Four artists who are today relatively or almost entirely unknown – one woman and three men – nevertheless played a part in the aesthetic upheavals that led to abstraction in 1940s Montreal. Very active in the art milieu throughout the decade, Marian Dale Scott, Fritz Brandtner, Henry Eveleigh, and Gordon Webber captured the attention of critics of the time, who employed the term “abstract art” to describe both non-objective works and bold formal explorations that retained some reference to visible reality. An examination of these artists’ practices reveals a remarkable openness to international contemporary art trends – French, German, British, and American. Their work and its critical reception conjure a complex picture of the debates on abstraction that took place in Montreal during the 1940s, so often reduced to the controversies surrounding the emergence of the Automatiste movement. The artistic innovations of Paul-Émile Borduas and his group and the radical tone of their 1948 manifesto Refus global cemented their status as Quebec’s abstract avant-garde but also had the effect of eclipsing other visions of abstraction being explored during the same period. This book reinstates the oeuvres of these forgotten protagonists in the narrative of abstract art, illustrating how their practices encompassed a variety of themes: emotion, science, human experience in the broadest sense – but also, as the Second World War unfolded, the violence that marked their era.

Abstract Painting in Canada
Author: Roald Nasgaard
Publisher: Douglas & McIntyre
ISBN: 9781553653943
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 464
Book Description
In the tradition of the distinguished Douglas & McIntyre art program, this lavishly illustrated and superbly printed book is a rich, readable history of abstract painting in Canada. The story begins in the 1920s with the sometimes eccentric but remarkable work, rooted in symbolism and theosophy, of pioneers such as Kathleen Munn, Bertram Brooker and Lawren Harris. Two decades later the Automatistes-Canada's first truly independent avant-garde art movement-burst onto the scene in Montreal. After the Second World War, the urge to abstraction spread across Canada, manifesting itself in significant regional movements. Vancouver painters retained a British flavour, while in Toronto, the Painters Eleven looked south to New York. Montreal's Plasticiens launched their own razor-edged interpretation of the European tradition of geometric abstraction. In the sixties and seventies, the Prairies were influenced by Clement Greenberg's post-painterly abstraction, while Halifax became a hub of conceptual art and concrete painting. The book continues through the eighties and nineties, during which critics largely denounced painting, and concludes in the twenty-first century, with abstract painting alive and well again in the studios of Canada's young artists. A monumental tome containing 200 color reproductions, it mines a rich vein of art history ripe for international discovery.
