- Cornwall to Crete - Painted Vistas
343,95 kr. The Landscape Series was developed in two phases: from February 2002 to June2003, completed in February 2006. The thirty sets comprised quantities of twenty to one hundred 1' square panels. The panels were worked on flat, with emulsion paint poured and divided in swept mounds and gullies using cardboard strips cut from cartons. They were then laid out on an old framed 6' x 3' piece which also served as a container for pools of colour washed over the textured surface. Various factors steered the series development: thoughts about the load-bearing pressures on a place, tracks and crossing points, airflow, water, spaces and intervals, the nature of settlement in the land. Offset corners from the stacking cubes stand for a house and occasional rounds for a moon. The identity of a place was achieved not by literal description but as an equivalent found by coincidence in the passage of an abstract process. NP James Contents 1.

408,95 kr. The volume documents media studies in Cv/VAR Archive nade between 1976 and 2025. Newsprint extracts make vignettes of popular subjects; celebrities, business, sports, beauty, cartoon characters. Over 300 drawings were made between 1981 and 1986 with further studies in 2003 and 2005. The volume includes 'Viewing and Listening', journal 1978-2022; photo-composites and drawings made as carbon trace collages. 'I began collecting the daily news in the summer of 1976, photographing random streams of television from a small black and white monitor and laying out sequential issues the Evening News, Sun and Daily Mirror, the covers pasted up on 6'x4' panels. The next step was to break down the material in fragments of headlines,fitted in xerox composites. The overall effect resembled a great coarse flow of unmetered experience. To filter the dominance of grey and black, in 1979 I began to trace bits of newsprint, introducing colour paper collages with the advent of the Falklands War in 1982. The first phase concluded in 1986 when I turned to abstract constructions (Signals 1986-96). World Score Dream encapsulates the series with collages made 1979-2005. The tracings are light and elusive, reading slant-wise across the pattern of images, text and borders, in a form of blind drawing with unpredictable results.' NPJ

318,95 kr. A recorded visit to an exhibition by Anish Kapoor at the Lisson Gallery London continued to 22nd June 2019. Includes descriptions of works and bio-dara of the artist. An addendum features a visit to the artist's studio in Camberwell 2011 where he demonstrates works in progress for the Olympic National Park and Leviathan to be installed at Monumenta Paris. 'In the rear ground floor space of the Lisson Ggallery a suite of new paintings, completed at the end of 2018. Each canvas is 274 cms tall by 213 cms wide. The colour range is restricted and highly pitched, a distinctly abstract expressionist handling with sweeping brush and hand work. An aggressive and confrontational approach infuses a violently striated surface. A basic pink shape, in some like sagging flesh or an upturned vessel is worked with smeared white strokes, then corrupted by slashed veins of blood red and pitch black, scarring the lower part of the canvases. The hand work introduces an element of unleashed energy on the white ground, in a scheme of unleashed emotion. It is violently expressive, chaotic and turbulent. ' N.P. James

358,95 kr. This review considers the major Cézanne exhibition at the Tate Gallery London, staged from 8th February until 28th April 1995. Rather than focusing exclusively on the artist's work, the piece attempts to place the exhibition in context, exploring the institutional arena of presentation and the social and economic strata to which the retrospective is mainly addressed. To encompass these multiple levels of attention, the essay is based on a journey through the exhibition, seen at the press view on 6th February 1995. The record is intentionally discursive, entwining impressions both of the works and the audience, groups of media professionals moving from room to room in sequence around the show. Further attention is given to the formation of the catalogue, to gain a reasonably complete picture of the event. The mnograph includes further essays on Impressism and Post-Impressionism including studies of Gauguin and Pierre Bonnard exhibited at Tate Nodern. ________________________________________________
