Abstract

"Made over the course of some thirty years, the photographs in this book depict the many faces of April Dawn Alison, the female persona of an Oakland, California based photographer who lived in the world as a man. This previously unseen body of self-portraits, which was given to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 2017, begins tentatively in 1970s in black-and-white, and evolves in the 80s into an exuberant, wildly colorful, and obsessive practice inspired by representations of women in classic film, BDSM pornography and advertising. A singular, long-term exploration of a non-public self, the archive contains photographs that are beautiful, hilarious, enigmatic, and heartbreakingly sad, sometimes all at once. With essays by Hilton Als (American writer and theater critic for The New Yorker), Zackary Drucker (American transgender multimedia artist, LGBT activist, actress and producer of smash Amazon series Transparent) and Erin O'Toole (associate curator of photography at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art)"

Abstract

The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art is recognized internationally as a premier destination for the viewing of twentieth- and twenty-first century art. This volume serves as an introduction to the outstanding holdings of the painting and sculpture collection, which includes landmark works by artists such as Henri Matisse, Frida Kahlo, René Magritte, Andy Warhol, and Richard Diebenkorn. An introductory essay by Madeleine Grynsztejn, Elise S. Haas Senior Curator of Painting and Sculpture at SFMOMA, outlines the general scope and evolution of the painting and sculpture collection, in particular its remarkable growth since the Museum's 1995 move to a new building designed by Mario Botta. Additional essays provide focused discussions on individual artworks and their broader significance within the history of art.

Abstract

Eva Hesse, a pivotal figure in the development of postwar international art, created paintings, sculpture, and works on papier that are striking in their enigmatic beauty and tactile sensibility. Although much has been written about Hesse's dramatic life - her childhood flight from Nazi Germany, her struggles to gain acceptance as a young artist in New York, her battle with cancer, and her tragic death in 1970 at the age of thirty-four - her artwork has yet to receive her widespread public attention it deserves. This lavishly illustrated volume provides an in depth examination of Hesse's entire oeuvre, focusing on her innovative working methods and choices of materials as well as on the larger aesthetic and philosophical questions raised by her artistic practice. The book presents and documents over 100 works by Hesse in all media. Essays by a distinguished team of writers deal with themes of mutability and decay in Hesse's art, discuss her little known early career in New York and Germany, explore her innovative use of translucent and pliable materials, and examine the role of drawing and collage in her creative process. In addition, a panel of curators, conservators, and colleagues of Hesse considers the complex issues raised by the aging and degradation of a number of her sculptures over the past three decades. Eva Hesse is published in conjunction with a major exhibition co-organized by Elisabeth Sussman for the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and Dr. Renate Petzinger for Museum Wiesbaden, Germany.
