Suki Seokyeong Kang
Author: Harry C. H. Choi
Publisher: Hatje Cantz Verlag
ISBN: 3775752935
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
Suki Seokyeong Kang bringt Malerei, Skulptur, Installation, Video und Choreografie zusammen, um das Zusammenspiel von Individuum und Kollektiv zu erkunden. Aus der Entwicklung eines künstlerischen Vokabulars heraus, das aus dem reichen Erbe koreanischer Malerei, Poesie und des Tanzes schöpft, untersucht Kang in ihrem Werk die Beständigkeit von Traditionen und erweitert deren Bedeutung für die zeitgenössische Kunst. Der Katalog zu ihrer Einzelausstellung Willow Drum Oriole im Leeum Museum of Art liest Kangs Praxis durch die Linse verschiedener Diskurse, wie den Status der traditionellen koreanischen Malerei innerhalb der zeitgenössischen Kunst, Feminismus oder Narrative der westlichen Avantgarde. Ausgehend von der Malerei, als der grundlegenden Praxis in Kangs Werk, zeichnet der Katalog die Entwicklung ihrer künstlerischen Sprache nach und stellt einen neuen Werkkomplex vor.

Corrosion and Electrochemistry of Zinc
Author: Xiaoge Gregory Zhang
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1475798776
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 481
Book Description
Humankind's use of zinc stretches back to antiquity, and it was a component in some of the earliest known alloy systems. Even though metallic zinc was not "discovered" in Europe until 1746 (by Marggral), zinc ores were used for making brass in biblical times, and an 87% zinc alloy was found in prehistoric ruins in Transylvania. Also, zinc (the metal) was produced in quantity in India as far back as the thirteenth century, well before it was recognized as being a separate element. The uses of zinc are manifold, ranging from galvanizing to die castings to electronics. It is a preferred anode material in high-energy-density batteries (e.g., Ni/Zn, Ag/Zn, ZnJair), so that its electrochemistry, particularly in alkaline media, has been extensively explored. In the passive state, zinc is photoelectrochemically active, with the passive film displaying n-type characteristics. For the same reason that zinc is considered to be an excellent battery anode, it has found extensive use as a sacrificial anode for the protection of ships and pipelines from corrosion. Indeed, aside from zinc's well-known attributes as an alloying element, its widespread use is principally due to its electrochemical properties, which include a well-placed position in the galvanic series for protecting iron and steel in natural aqueous environments and its reversible dissolution behavior in alkaline solutions.

Sam Noto, Sculptor
Author: Claudia Rousseau
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1499048076
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 155
Book Description
This book is the first retrospective monograph tracing the life and work of Washington D.C. area sculptor, Sam Noto. Having spent much of his youth in the military and in business, Noto became a full-time art student in his early forties, earning his MFA in sculpture from the University of Maryland-College Park in 1995. Working directly with a wide range of media, a “persistent curiosity” about materials and techniques has directed him through an engaging stylistic trajectory over the past three decades, and continues to lead him toward new pathways of creative expression.

David Smith

ISBN: 0520291875
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 496
Book Description
"This comprehensive sourcebook is destined to become a lasting and definitive resource on the art and aesthetic philosophy of the American artist David Smith (1906-1965). A pioneer of twentieth-century modernism, Smith was renowned for the expansive formal and conceptual ambitions of his broadly diverse and inventive welded-steel abstractions. His groundbreaking achievements drew freely on cubism, surrealism, and constructivism, profoundly influencing later movements such as minimalism and environmental art. By radically challenging older conventions of monolithic figuration and refuting arbitrary distinctions between painters and sculptors, Smith asserted sculpture's equal role in advancing modern art. A compilation of Smith's poems, sketchbook notes, essays, lectures, letters to the editor, reviews, and interviews, these previously unpublished texts underscore the varied ways in which his writing functioned as a means to examine and articulate his private identity and to promote the social ideals that made him a key participant in contemporary discourses surrounding modernism, art and politics, and sculptural aesthetics. All the documents in David Smith: collected writings, lectures, and interviews have been newly corrected against the original manuscripts, typescripts, and audiotapes. Each text in this collection is annotated with historical and contextual information that reflects Smith's own process of continually reviewing and revising his writings in response to his evolving aspirations as a visual artist."--Provided by publisher.
