Hardback. Condition: New. The newest monograph dedicated to the striking new work of internationally acclaimed abstract painter Suzan FreconSuzan Frecon features new paintings, which highlight the artist's ongoing exploration of the interaction of shape, color, texture, and light. Painted over long periods of time, these works are the result of a deliberative process guided by a deep understanding of color and the properties of paint. Frecon has been exploring the issues of horizontality and verticality, asymmetrical balances, and interacting arrangements of color for over five decades. The result is an ongoing dialogue that yields new and surprising paintings at every turn.Frecon's knowledge of color is deeply rooted in art history; her selection of color brings with it an understanding of the scientific properties of pigments as well as their use by Renaissance painters. Esteemed poet and critic John Yau explores this inspiration in his illuminating essay, in which he teases out the connections between these bold abstract works and historic figurative paintings. Highlighting Frecon's interest in these paintings for their form and color rather than their narrative, Yau offers a new and intriguing way of looking at both present and past.

First Edition
First Edition. An exceptional copy; fine in an equally fine dw. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Literally as new and still in the publisher's protective shrink-wrap.; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 112 pages; Physical description: 112 p. : col. ill. ; 30 cm. Catalogue of an exhibition held at the Menil Collection, Houston, Mar. 6-May 11, 2008 and Kunstmuseum Bern, June 11-Sept. 28, 2008. Summary: This is the first major exploration of the works of American abstract painter and watercolourist Suzan Frecon (b. 1941), critically acclaimed for her sensitive arrangement of colour, form, and texture, and for the philosophical resonance of her art. By restricting herself to nonrepresentational forms, earth-based colours, and, in the case of her watercolours, 'found' pieces of paper, Frecon achieves an unequaled sense of balance and openness in her work. The book features ten oil paintings and thirty watercolours dating from the late 1990s to 2007.Form, color, illumination celebrates the uniqueness of Frecon's painting and articulates how her work distinguishes itself within the history of abstract painting. The authors describe in-depth how her artistic process and materials are an integral part of her focus and aesthetic. Included is an essay revealing the 'ethics' of her aesthetics - an argument for abstraction and an attention to truth that is not divorced from social and environmental concerns. Subjects: Frecon, Suzan, (1941- ) -- Exhibitions -- Painting, Abstract -- Painting, American -- 21st century. 2 Kg.
