Abstract

Nick Andrews (°Londen, V.K. 1972) werk neemt een aparte plaats in binnen de schilderkunst. Met zijn opvallende kleuren en contrasterend lyrische en geometrische vormen grijpt hij terug naar schilderkunstige tradities die op dat moment voorgoed verdwenen leken. In de Warande toont Andrews recent werk. Hierin komen de elementen die het werk van Andrews typeren doorheen zijn carrière tot een nieuwe synthese. Lijn, vorm en kleur behandelt de kunstenaar als aparte bouwstenen, die elkaar kunnen beïnvloeden en versterken. Vanuit die elementen bouwt hij zijn schilderijen op. Hij gebruikt hierbij enkel de drie basiskleuren rood, blauw en geel die hij mengt tot hij precies de gewenste kleur krijgt. De reeksen die hij schildert variëren sterk: van imaginaire landschappen tot theaterscenes, van desolate pretparken tot scenes uit het nachtleven. Maar wat ook het onderwerp is, zijn schilderijen zitten steeds vol leven. Dit effect bereikt hij niet enkel met het kleurengebruik, maar ook door de ritmiek die hij er in aanbrengt. De basisopbouw is strak en schematisch, de uitwerking speels en beweeglijk. Exhibition: De Warande Turnhout, Turnhout, Belgium (11.06-14.08.2016).

Abstract

An in-depth look at the work and career of this fascinating artist, who is having a profound impact on contemporary painting. Nigel Cooke is known for his complex paintings, which thematically explore the meeting point between creative labour, consciousness, art history, consumer culture, and nature. Primarily centred on meticulously painted, large-scale urban landscapes, which he calls 'hybrid theatrical spaces', Cooke's work employs disparate styles, often integrating trompe l'oeil miniature rocks and trees with backdrops of graffiti-marked buildings, to create scenes conveying obscure and macabre narratives. This survey of Cooke's career to date explores the artist's style, approach, and impact on contemporary art and includes his very latest works, completed shortly before publication.

Abstract

"Cuban-born artist Carmen Herrera (b. 1915) has painted for more than seven decades, though it is only in recent years that acclaim for her work has catapulted the artist to international prominence. This handsome volume offers the first sustained examination of her early career from 1948 to 1978, which spans the art worlds of Havana, Paris, and New York. Essays consider the artist's early studies in Cuba, her involvement with the Salon des Réalités Nouvelles in postwar Paris, and her groundbreaking New York output, as well as situate her work in the context of a broader Latin American avant-garde art. An essay by Dana Miller considers Herrera's New York work of the 1950s through the 1970s, when Herrera was arriving at and perfecting her signature style. Personal family photographs from Herrera's archive enrich the narrative, and a chronology addressing the entirety of her life and career features additional documentary images. Over eighty works are illustrated as color plates, making this book the most extensive representation of Herrera's work to date."

Abstract

Serendipity. A concept that is perfectly applicable to the work of the Belgian painter Marcase. For the past forty years he has been 'discovering what he wasn't looking for' - and his audience with him - on canvases that transcend simplicity. The typical 'Marcase line' gives rise to an unimagined world. This book provides a beautiful survey of Marcase's oeuvre, with the focus upon his most recent paintings. Professor Willem Elias, who has followed the artist's career from the very beginning, provides an illuminating essay.

Abstract

Album Picabia' is an inspiring, artistic chronicle of Francis Picabia's life (1879-1953) as seen through the eyes of his last wife and creative protegee, Olga Mohler Picabia. Begun in 1936, four years before their marriage, and left unfinished in 1951, two years before Picabia's death, the album is a collection of souvenirs, sketches, newspaper clippings, photographs, and annotations that document the artist's public and private lives with acute affection and appreciation. This rich visual account grants us entry into one of the greatest, yet one of the least known, creative and romantic partnerships of the 20th century.

Abstract

Among the great modern artists of the past century, Picabia is one of the most elusive, given his extreme eclecticism and persistent acts of self-contradiction. Though known as a Dadaist, Picabia's ongoing stylistic shifts, from Impressionism to radical abstraction, from mechanical imagery to pseudo-classicism, and from photo-based realism to art informel remain to be assessed in depth. Similarly, the breadth of his practice, which encompassed poetry, film and performance is under-recognized. Each makes him a figure relevant for contemporary artists, while the career as a whole challenges familiar narratives of modernism. Francis Picabia presents over 100 paintings, complemented by works on paper, publications, and film. Featuring some 500 illustrations and 14 essays, it examines the full range of Picabia's oeuvre.
