He was known as a practitioner of the German variant of Pop art, "Capitalist Realism," in the sixties and seventies. But the artist has always straddled the concerns of both the Pop artists and the Minimalists. In recent years, some of his works have been totally abstract, deconstructing pictorial conventions, as in this commissioned work, "Eight Gray," a series of pieces utilizing mirrored surfaces. The installation is interpreted by the Marxist critic and art historian Benjamin H. D. Buchloh, who is the leading champion of Richter's work. A lavish publication. *** "Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin will present Gerhard Richter: Eight Gray, a new commission project consisting of eight monumental mirrored panels. One of the most influential artists of the twentieth century, Richter has become known for his manipulation of various pictorial conventions. His diverse production, which includes sculptural objects and paintings and ranges from landscapes to monochromes, is characterized as a whole by the artist's steadfast investigation of the nature of looking. Throughout his career he has experimented with the concept of the perceptual frame and, consequently, windows and mirrors; the commission for the Guggenheim grows out of a series of works Richter first conceived in the mid 1960s. The hazy reflections of the artist's series of enameled glass panels articulate the viewer's fleeting relationship to the real while referencing a long history of attempts to depict it on canvas and on film. Gerhard Richter's Eight Gray is the eighth commissioned work Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin." - Publisher. Size: 4to.

"Born into a wealthy New York family, Peggy - whose Uncle Solomon would establish the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation - participated in the cultural ferment of life in London and Paris during the 192Os and 193Os. Her friends included many of the most significant avant-garde figures of the era, such as Samuel Beckett and Marcel Duchamp. In London, she ran Guggenheim Jeune, her cutting-edge gallery devoted to contemporary art. During the months surrounding the outbreak of World War II, Peggy accelerated her purchases of abstract and Surrealist art until she was buying virtually one work every day, eventually amassing one of the most important collections of Modern art in private hands. After escaping to New York in the company of Max Ernst, she established the gallery Art of This Century, which from 1942 to 1947 featured her collection as well as the first or early solo exhibitions for such artists as Robert Motherwell, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko." "In 1948, Peggy settled permanently in Venice, where her home, the eighteenth-century Palazzo Venier dei Leoni, would become the Peggy Guggenheim Collection after her death in 1979. The collection is now one of the most celebrated for visitors to Venice. Vail's essay provides important new information on the Venice years, during which Peggy kept guest books that record the visits of an astonishing array of international personalities. Pages from these guest books - published here for the first time - include unique drawings by such artists as Marc Chagall, Jean Cocteau, and Saul Weinberg."--Jacket.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. An exploration of a formative chapter in Basquiat's brief career through the lens of his identity and the role of cultural activism in New York City during the early years of the 1980sJean-Michel Basquiat painted Defacement (The Death of Michael Stewart) in 1983 to commemorate the death of a young, black artist who died from injuries sustained while in police custody after being arrested for allegedly tagging a New York City subway station. Published to accompany a focused exhibition of Basquiat's response to anti-black racism and police brutality, this catalogue explores a chapter in the artist's career through both the lens of his identity and the Lower East Side as a nexus of activism in the early 1980s.With an introduction by Chaedria LaBouvier, Nancy Spector, and Joan Young, and an essay by Johanna F. Almiron are supplemented by commentary from artists, activists, and other cultural figures who were part of this episode in the city's history, which invokes today's urgent conversations about state-sanctioned racism. Ephemera related to Stewart's death, including newspaper clippings and protest posters, and samples of artwork from Stewart's estate are also featured along with paintings and prints made by other artists from Keith Haring, Andy Warhol, David Hammons, in response to Stewart's death. Published on the occasion of the exhibition Basquiat's "Defacement": the untold story at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, June 21-November 6, 2019.

Profusely illustrated. *** "Since the 1997 completion of what many consider his greatest achievement - the stunning Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain - Frank O. Gehry has soared to the forefront of contemporary American architecture. Long recognized by his peers for his innovative designs, Gehry now enjoys a new level of prominence in the popular imagination. This book, the catalogue of the first large-scale retrospective of Gehry's work in 15 years, examines the architect's unique vision and provides the historical perspective with which to interpret the audacious accomplishments. Essays by noted museum curators and architectural historians explore his iconoclastic spirit and trace his melding of unconventional materials and forms. Photographs, drawings, plans, and scale models communicate the breadth and complexity of Gehry's work and show how, in his view of architecture as sculptural space, Gehry has opened up a world of new possibilities for architecture." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: A personal reflection, by Thomas Krens; Selected projects, by J.
