Lots of Political Pop in this great catalogue. *** "A new kind of figurative art appeared during the 1960s in Europe and the United States. While in New York Pop Art offered a fresh perspective on an America in the throes of frenzied change, in Paris French painters and others from Italy, Spain, Portugal, Germany and Iceland also began exploiting images that had their origins in advertising, cinema and the popular press. Grouped under the umbrella term Narrative Figuration, they soon became the uncompromising critics of what was dubbed the consumer society. They were for the most part politically committed artists and many of them were actively involved in the political agitation that led up to the events of May 1968 in France. Once standard bearers, the Narrative Figuration artists have now been rediscovered by museums, which, like the Centre Pompidou, are dedicating increasing numbers of exhibitions to their work. Thanks to the acquisition of major works, the collection of the Fondation Gandur pour l'Art in Geneva now provides what is without doubt one of the most exhaustive selections of works by Adami, Aillaud, Arroyo, Err , Fromanger, Jacquet, Klasen, Monory, Rancillac, Schlosser, St mpfli, T l maque and Voss, to name a few. Edited by Jean-Paul Ameline, who curated the Figuration narrative, Paris, 1960-1972 exhibition, held at the Grand Palais in 2008, this catalogue includes all its key works, with commentary and analysis by curators and art historians specializing in a movement that left an indelible mark on 1960s Europe." - Publisher.

Rilegato. Condition: new. Edited by Ameline J. and Schubert J. Translation by Lee J. English Text. Milano, 2017; bound, pp. 336, col. ill., col. plates, cm 25,5x28. Nel corso degli anni Sessanta, nasce negli Stati Uniti e in Europa un nuovo genere di figurazione. Mentre a New York la pop art offre uno sguardo nuovo su un'America in pieno tumulto, a Parigi i pittori francesi, italiani, spagnoli, portoghesi, tedeschi e islandesi cominciano a ispirarsi alle immagini della pubblicità , del cinema e della stampa. Riuniti nel movimento di figurazione narrativa, questi artisti muovono una critica severa alla nuova societàgovernata dal consumo. Testimoni impegnati, molti di loro prenderanno parte alla contestazione politica sfociata nel Maggio '68 in Francia. Diventati figure di riferimento, oggi sono stati riscoperti da musei come il Centre Pompidou che hanno dedicato loro sempre più mostre. Grazie alle acquisizioni di grandi opere, la collezione della Fondation Gandur pour l'Art di Ginevra offre probabilmente uno dei panorami più completi delle opere di Adami, Aillaud, Arroyo, Erró, Fromanger, Jaquet, Klasen, Monory, Rancillas, Schlosser, Stämpfli, Télémaque e Voss. A cura di Jean-Paul Ameline, commissario della mostra «Figuration narrative, Paris, 1960-1972» che si è tenuta nel 2008 al Grand Palais, questo catalogo ne presenta le opere principali, studiate e analizzate dalle schede redatte da conservatori e storici dell'arte esperti di questo movimento che ha segnato gli anni Sessanta in Europa.
