"We revere Hofmann as Pollock did and Rauschenberg does for proving that the straightforward manipulation of pigment can create exalted art. To put it simply Hofmann's ability to handle paint to fuse the action of painting and drawing into a single immediate gesture carried colored pigment into the viewer's presence with the force of a bomb. The power of this visual explosion catalyzed the bond of European and American art cementing the first half of twentieth-century art inseparably to the second half. Hofmann's paintings of the '50s and '60s. were magnificent. They were without precedent except in Hofmann's own work. More amazingly they were without equal when they were painted and are without equal in quality since they were painted." that's Frank Stella 1999. Lund Humphries hardcover books

Decorative endpapers. Plain full color magenta frontispiece. "Harland Miller is known as the creator of figurative paintings and works on paper many of which depict the iconic designs of Penguin paperback books and bear the artist's name as author with the fictitious title of each being wittily deadpan punkish and aphoristic. Miller began making paintings according to this template during the 1990s establishing a visual language that was confrontational compelling and could draw the viewer into an immediate entertaining and quick-fire relationship with each work."

Floor plans of the two levels of the exhibition. Published on the occasion of the exhibition "Antony Gormley In Formation" from November 13 2019 to January 18 2020 at the White Cube Mason's Yard. "With the enormous and reductivist 'Stacke Cast Blockworks' and the more fragmented 'pixelated' 'Cast Aggregate Blockworks' Antony Gormley continues his investigation into the place of the human body in the contemporary world confronting it with the built environment as well as the ostensibly immaterial world of the digital. Originating from the artist's own body and his personal experience of its particular state attitude or posture in a given moment in time the work generates a 'confrontational presentness' for the viewer and the artist's body becomes a placeholder for human experience." Christian Berger. The preparation for the exhibition began with taking over the Davison Tine Metal foundry in 2016 and in this time the production of our castings was revolutionized. The collaboration between Mike Booth Ashley Hipkin and Adam Humphries in the evolution of forms and the intelligent rethinking of the casting process has enabled the remarkable technical results shared in this exhibition. The catalog is illustrate with forty-six full page color images eight of them on folded double pages rendered in offset lithography and b/w in-text reproductions of Gormley's work. Includes a catalog of works exhibited with specifications and thumbnail images in color. Beautifully produced publication of Gormley's landmark exhibition. White Cube hardcover books

White dust jacket lettered in black over raw linen lettered in white. Profusely illustrated with photographs and paintings most in color. Signed on the half-title by Richard Tuttle. Spine of dust jacket lightly toned otherwise a fine as new copy. Catalog of an exhibition held at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and five other institutions between July 2 2005 and June 25 2007. Abstract: "Over the past four decades Richard Tuttle has thrown into question nearly every conceivable artistic convention and critical category to create an enormously inventive body of abstract work - one that embraces and intermingles drawing painting collage book-making sculpture and design. From his spare yet enigmatic forms of the 1960s to his complex multifaceted assemblages and installations of more recent years Tuttle's primary impetus throughout has been to craft unique objects using everyday often ephemeral materials that demand to be confronted on their own terms. The relentless individuality of his aesthetic vision has earned him standing as one of the most provocative and influential artists of his day." "This richly illustrated and strikingly designed catalogue the most authoritative volume ever published on this prolific artist presents nearly four hundred reproductions of artworks from across his oeuvre and documentary photographs of his creative process. Essays by a distinguished group of writers trace the arc of Tuttle's career from its inception in the 1960s to the present day addressing topics such as the philosophical underpinnings of his artistic method; his sensitive handling of diverse materials; his lifelong engagement with drawing and its expansion into three-dimensional space; his groundbreaking solo exhibitions and their critical reception in the United States and Europe; his complex play with the conventions of language; and his innovative artist's books many of which are collaborations with poets."-- Book jacket Contents: A universe of small truths /; Madeleine Grynsztejn --; Touching down lightly /; Robert Storr --; Kinesthetic drawing /; Cornelia H.
