Matisse in the Barnes Foundation
Philadelphia PA: The Barnes Foundation 2015. Hardcover. As New in slipcase. Three volumes in Blue Orange and Green cloth all contained in a yellow cloth slipcase with printed imagery. Profusely illustrated. Contents as follows: Volume 1 : Foreword -- Matisse in the laboratory of Dr. Barnes : how and why Barnes collected Matisse / Claudine Grammont -- Ensembles -- Matisse's awakening / Yve-Alain Bois -- Henri Matisse according to Dr. Barnes / Karen K. Butler ; Volume 2 : Catalogue nos. 1-5 -- Le Bonheur de vivre : 'the work of a superb colorist' / Barbara A. Buckley and Jennifer Mass -- Catalogue nos. 6-49 ; Volume 3 : Catalogue nos. 50-51 -- The dance process -- Catalogue nos. 52-59 -- Notes -- Correspondence around the dance. Publisher states "Despite the reknown of the Matisse holdings at the Barnes Foundation these works have long remained uncatalogued and elusive to many given the Foundation's restrictions on loans and color photography. Generations of scholars have lamented the black-and-white slides of Le Bonheur de vivre that anticlimactically accompanied lectures on the riot of Fauvre color. Matisse in the Barnes Foundation . grew out research on the collection initiated in the 1990s . . Goals for the Matisse project included gathering comprehensive information on the works from external sources the tremendously rich and recently catalogued Barnes Foundation Archives and the insights of curators and conservators and creating for each work an internally consistent record in the Foundation's database part of which could eventually migrate to the Foundation's website"--Foreword pages 21-22. A landmark compendium - the first authoritative publication to cover in its entirety one of the most significant holdings of Matisse in the world. Here is a vibrant celebration - slipcased and beautifully produced - of the Barnes' extraordinary Matisse collection. Composed of fifty-nine works from every stage of the artist's career it is among the most important in the world. At its heart are Matisse's most historically significant paintings Le Bonheur de vivre also called The Joy of Life and The Dance the monumental mural that Albert C Barnes commissioned to fill the lunettes of the Foundation's main gallery transforming both the space and the artist's career. An essay by Yve-Alain Bois addresses the evolution of The Dance and its role in Matisse's career; Karen Butler looks at what Barnes thought of Matisse; and Claudine Grammont's considers how and why he collected his work. The artworks themselves sumptuously reproduced are the subjects of interpretive analyses that tell the stories of their acquisition and address their critical reception. The book includes major contributions by Barbara Buckley and Jennifer Mass on the artists technique and a report on the latest findings on the pigments used in Le Bonheur de vivre.

Borer Alain
The Essential Joseph Beuys
Cambridge Massachusetts: The MIT Press 1997. Hardcover. VG/VG. Black cloth over boards; Color pictorial dj.; 239 pp.; 152 color and duotone plates. Inspired by the idea of an imaginary Beuys exhibition--one unencumbered by the fragility of the works insurance geography etc.; Provides an overview of Beuys's work presented chronologically. Joseph Beuys 1921-1986 was one of the most original and influential artists of the twentieth century. Challenging the traditional confines of art he embraced a broader philosophically and politically based practice formulated in the dictum "Everyone is an artist." His unique approach to the creative process transformed materials such as felt fat honey blood wax copper and sulfur into fluent and expressive artistic media. Called the most olfactory artist in history he preferred the smells of the pungent and decaying just as he favored the indecent ugly and disfigured over the polished shiny tasteful products of city slickers and social seekers. His long-term radical aims included the introduction of direct democracy through referendum free access to all educational institutions and a restructuring of the economy based on ecological necessity. The Essential Joseph Beuys was inspired by the idea of an imaginary Beuys exhibition unhampered by the problems connected with actual exhibitions e.g. those of geography insurance fragility and the concerns of lenders. The book provides a definitive survey of the artist's work in every medium in which he worked - drawings and watercolors sculptures and objects environments and actions and multiples and printed works. Arranged chronologically and covering the four decades he was active 1945-1985 the book reflects the changes in Beuys' choice of register from the soliloquy of his early days to the dialogue of his period as a teacher to the powerful language of his public lectures to international audiences. In this introductory essay "A Lament for Joseph Beuys" Alain Borer summarizes the artist's oeuvre drawing out themes of great complexity and relating them to Beuys' artistic and social milieus.
