Abstract

Sam Gilliam (b. Tupelo, Mississippi, 1933) is one of Americas most prominent abstract painters. Works by the artist, who has lived and worked in Washington, D.C., since 1962, are held by numerous museums including the Art Institute of Chicago, the MoMA (New York), the National Gallery of Art, and the Whitney Museum of Art. The Music of Color is his first solo exhibition in Europe. The show puts the focus on the years between 1967 and 1973, the period of the greatest radicalism in Gilliams oeuvre. His Yves Klein Blue, which harks back to his experimental early work, was presented at the 57th Venice Biennale in 2017.&#13;In 1967, Gilliam began work on a series of what came to be known as beveled-edge paintings: he poured acrylic paint directly onto the unprimed canvas, which he folded and crumpled while the paint was still wet. He then stretched the canvas over a chamfered frame, lending the painting a spatial and object-like quality. Gilliams signature creative achievement is the drape paintings series, begun in 1968, for which he applied the same procedure as in the beveled-edge paintings but then released the canvas from the stretcher frame. Unlike easel paintings, which usually function independently of their context, the drape paintings evince a performative aspect and interact with their respective settings; they can be installed in a variety of ways depending on the spatial context.&#13;&#13;Gilliam strove to blur the widely accepted boundary between painting and sculpture even as prominent contemporaries such as Donald Judd sought to reaffirm it. The paintings he created between 1967 and 1973 stand out for their monumentality and forceful use of color. The canvas becomes a medium that records traces of the production process and exhibits its own physicality. At a time when painting seemed to be in decline, Gilliam breathed new life into it; jazz was an important source of inspiration for his expressive and energetic style.&#13;&#13;The Music of Color also probes the political and historical dimension of Gilliams oeuvre. While the artist himself rarely comments on political issues, the works in his Martin Luther King series and Jail Jungle reflect the 1968 race riots and the highly polarized debate over black art and abstract painting in 1960s and 1970s America.&#13;&#13;The Kunstmuseum Basel presents 45 outstanding works from public and private collections in Europe and the United States.

Abstract

Publié à l'occasion de l'exposition «La couleur en fugue» présentée à la Fondation Louis Vuitton, cet ouvrage témoigne de l'importance, au sein de l'abstraction contemporaine, des oeuvres de cinq peintres d'origines et de générations différentes:Sam Gilliam (États-Unis, 1933), Katharina Grosse (Allemagne, 1961), Steven Parrino (États-Unis, 1958-2005), Megan Rooney (Afrique du Sud, 1985) et Niele Toroni (Suisse, 1937). Ces artistes transforment le rapport couleur-surface en s'affranchissant des cadres traditionnels. La peinture en libre expansion qu'ils proposent se déploie alors dans l'espace et entre en dialogue étroit avec l'architecture.Ce catalogue réunit les contributions de Jonathan P. Binstock, Claudia Buizza, Philippe Dagen, Ludovic Delalande, Frank Gehry, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Nathalie Ogé, Florence Ostende, Suzanne Pagé, Ludger Schwarte, Nancy Spector, Claire Staebler et Marc-Olivier Wahler.
