Bøger af Edith Devaney

An authoritative study of the artist Milton Avery, an influence on the generation of Mark Rothko and Barnett Newman.

In 1946 the art critic Robert Coates, writing in The New Yorker, first used the term 'Abstract Expressionism'. The two words combine the emotional intensity of the German Expressionists with the anti-figurative aesthetic of the European Abstract schools. This title seeks to re-evaluate the movement, recognising its complex and fluid reality.

David Hockney (b 1937) has always been closely associated with Pop Art and California, where he has lived for much of his life. This study of his work redefines him as an important painter of the English countryside, addressing the artists place in the landscape tradition, his video works and their relationship to English landscape film-making.
