Ellsworth Kelly's oeuvre can perhaps best be summed up by a phrase from Gottfried Boehm: "In between: this is the shortest formula of his aesthetics." With abstract expressionism at its peak, and based on the traditions of the abstract avant-garde in dialogue with color field painting, Kelly developed a vocabulary that left panel painting behind. In a conscious questioning of the conditions that underlie perception, he not only explores the relationships of painting and wall, sculpture and space, but also, and in particular, the relationship between viewer and work. A selection of more than 40 pieces of art from the past five decades, most of them from the collection of the artist, this book offers an expert investigation into the artistic development of one of the leading exponents of international postwar art.

Hardcover. Condition: Used - Very Good. Ellsworth Kelly is one of the leading exponents of international postwar art. With Abstract Expressionism at its peak and based on the traditions of the abstract avant-garde in a dialog with Color-Field Painting, the American artist developed a vocabulary that left traditional panel painting behind. In a conscious questioning of the conditions that underlie our perceptions, he not only explores the relationships of painting and wall, sculpture and space, but also, and in particular, the relationship between viewer and work.

Hardcover. Condition: gut. 2003. Kunst Malerei Plasti Ausstellungskataloge Kunst Basel Museen Fondation Beyeler Kelly, Ellsworth Riehen MuseumEllsworth Kelly zählt zu den wichtigsten Vertretern der internationalen Nachkriegskunst. Auf dem Höhepunkt des Abstrakten Expressionismus entwickelte der amerikanische Künstler aus den Traditionen der abstrakten Avantgarde und im Dialog mit dem Colour Field Painting eine bildnerische Sprache, die sich von der traditionellen Tafelbildmalerei verabschiedet. In bewusster Auseinandersetzung mit unseren Wahrnehmungsbedingungen geht er dabei sowohl dem Verhältnis von Bild und Wand, Skulptur und Raum als auch im Besonderen der Beziehung des Betrachters zum Werk nach. »In between [zu Deutsch Zwischenraum] dies ist die kürzeste Formel seiner Ästhetik«, so fasste Gottfried Boehm, einer der wenigen Kenner von Kellys Werk im deutschsprachigen Raum und Verfasser des Hauptbeitrags in dieser Publikation, das zentrale Thema seiner künstlerischen Arbeit zusammen. Im Rückgriff auf einen Fundus von rund 40 Werken, die zum großen Teil aus dem Besitz des Künstlers stammen, führt der Band die mittlerweile fünf Jahrzehnte umspannende künstlerische Entwicklung Ellsworth Kellys sachkundig vor Augen. In einem Essay zeichnet der Künstler den kaum zu überschätzenden Stellenwert der Skulpturen in seinem Werk nach.
