American Surrealist artist Dorothea Tanning (1910-2012) worked across painting, sculpture, printmaking, installation and writing over the course of seven decades, producing one of the 20th century's most enigmatic oeuvres. Tanning's work conjures dreamlike worlds that straddle the hazy border between figuration and abstraction, pioneering a unique prismatic formal language that resonates keenly today. This fully illustrated catalog highlights Tanning's works created between the 1950s and '90s, a particularly fruitful period in the artist's career, and traces her stylistic arc through over 20 significant paintings drawn from interrelated phases of the artist's practice. Scholars Mary Ann Caws, Victoria Carruthers and Kate Conley contribute essays to the volume; additionally, it reproduces Tanning's 1986 essay 'To Paint,' a poetic and impassioned manifesto on painting and Surrealism. The catalog takes its title from the last line of this text. VG+: This book is in excellent condition. It is clean and readable with tight binding.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This study overhauls canonical accounts of Surrealism, demonstrating how one woman artist expanded its activity and expression in bold new ways for the modern age The life and art of Dorothea Tanning (19102012) exemplify the transnational spirit and nomadic practice of Surrealism, an achievement made all the harder because the artist was a woman. In Dorothea Tanning: A Surrealist World we travel with Tanning across lived places and imagined spaces in Chicago, Arizona, Paris, and Seillans, through to her final years in New York. Expertly drawing from extensive archival and curatorial research to map the artist's life story across a seventy-year career, Alyce Mahon situates Tanning at the very heart of avant-garde discussions on art and philosophical ideas. She explores how this circle of relationships informed Tanning's work at critical moments of her career and how she navigated the difficulty of being the wife of a male artist already established on the international stage. Mahon demonstrates how Tanning's work expanded postwar global Surrealism in offering a world of kaleidoscopic, constantly shifting perspectives. This study overhauls canonical accounts of Surrealism, demonstrating how one woman artist expanded its activity and expression in bold new ways for the modern age Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
