FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 230 pp. ; 165 illus. -- with a bonus offer--; Great Plains Photography; On a wintry day in December 1890 near a creek named Wounded Knee on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota the Seventh Cavalry of the U.S. Army opened fire on an encampment of Sioux Indians. This assault claimed more than 250 lives including those of many Indian women and children. The tragedy at Wounded Knee has often been written about but the existing photographs have received little attention until now. Eyewitness at Wounded Knee brings together and assesses for the first time some 150 photographs that were made before and immediately after the massacre. Present at the scene were two itinerant photographers George Trager and Clarence Grant Morelodge whose work has never before been published. Accompanying commentaries focus on both the Indian and the military sides of the story. Richard E. Jensen analyzes the political and economic quagmire in which the Sioux found themselves after 1877. R. Eli Paul considers the army’s role at Wounded Knee. John E. Carter discusses the photographers and also the reporters and relic hunters who were looking to profit from the misfortune of others. For this Bison Books edition each image has been digitally enhanced and restored making the photographs as compelling as the event itself. Heather Cox Richardson tells the story behind the endeavor to present a meaningful account of this significant historical event. 20120215 . 2011. 0803236093 . Bison Books paperback

Working only from life the artist claimed "I could never put anything into a picture that wasn't actually there in front of me." This major retrospective catalogue surveys Freud's portraits across the seven decades of his career. Featuring the finest portraits from public and private collections around the world the book explores the stylistic development and remarkable technical virtuosity of an artist regarded as one of the most innovative figurative painters the medium has known. Freud's chosen subjects were often his intimates—family members friends and artistic colleagues such as Frank Auerbach Francis Bacon Leigh Bowery and David Hockney. Freud was private man who rarely gave interviews and his thoughts on the complex relationship between artist and sitter and the challenges of painting nudes and self-portraits are published here for the first time documented in a series of interviews with Michael Auping conducted between May 2009 and January 2011. An illustrated chronology of the artist's life provides fascinating insights into Freud's background as a grandson of Sigmund Freud and his unorthodox artistic education. An essential book for every personal art library this lavishly illustrated volume celebrates the work and career of an artist who overturned traditional portraiture and offered a new approach to figurative art. . 2012. 0300182554 .

Picasso began The Berggruen Album on November 5 1970 days after his eighty-ninth birthday in his words "to make sure my hand has not developed a wobble." He had just conceived a series of a dozen powerful canvases inspired by the bullfights at Frejus and in these delicate sexual voyeuristic sketches he proves his soundness of body and personality his unmatchable fitness to paint. An index of thumbnail sized prints pairs many of the works that inspired them or evolved from them from Ingres to finished Picassos. The book closes with essays by Marilyn McCully and John Richardson whose A Life of Picasso won the Whitbread Prize. . 2006. 0974960705 . D. A. P. /Distributed Art Publishers (Distribution) hardcover

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 122 pages; 106 color illustrations. -- with a bonus offer--; Jenny Saville has been recognized as one of the most thought-provoking and technically accomplished talents of her generation known for her monumental paintings of fleshy nudes. Fascinated by the endless aesthetic and formal possibilities that the materiality of the human body offers Jenny Saville remits a highly sensuous and tactile impression of surface and mass in her monumental oil paintings. She captures the contours and features of the face and the nuances of skin texture and color in strokes both bold and meticulous. Enlarging the facial features of her human subjects to a vast scale and rendering them in layer upon layer of paint she imbues them with a sense of mass and weight that is almost sculptural and at times wholly abstract. Intense pinks reds and blues erupt through pale skin tones disclosing the internal workings of the painting like the flesh and blood of a living organism. Continuum includes monumental paintings and drawings from her recent exhibition held at Gagosian Gallery in New York as well as highlights from the past six years of the artistâs work which have not been exhibited or published. . 2012. 0847839109 .

1996rif. 81897Random House. New. Hardcover. FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- -- with a bonus offer--; In the second volume of his definitive biography of Pablo Picasso John Richardson draws on the same combination of lively writing critical astuteness exhaustive research and personal experience that made a bestseller out of the first volume and vividly re-creates the artist's life and work during the crucial decade of 1907-1917--a period during which Picasso and Georges Braque invented cubism and to that extent engendered modernism. Thanks to his friendship with Picasso and his family mistresses friends dealers and other associates Richardson has had unique access to untapped sources and unpublished material. By harnessing biography to art history he has managed to crack the code of cubism more successfully than any of his predecessors. And by bringing fresh light to bear on the artist's too often sensationalized private life he has succeeded in coming up with a totally new view of this paradoxical man and of his paradoxical work. Never before has Picasso's prodigious technique his incisive vision and not least his sardonic humor been analyzed with such clarity. Richardson reveals that the young Picasso saw himself in the Baudelairean role of "the painter of modern life"--a role that stipulated the brothel as the noblest subject for a modern artist. Hence his great innovative painting Les Demoiselles d'Avignon with which this book opens. As well as portraying Picasso as a revolutionary the author analyzes the more compassionate side of his genius. The misogynist of posthumous legend turns out to have been surprisingly vulnerable--more often sinned against than sinning. Heartbroken at the death of his mistress Eva the artist tried desperately to find a wife. Richardson recounts the untold story of how his two great loves of 1915-1917 successively turned him down; and how these disappointments as well as his horror at the outbreak of World War I and the wounds it inflicted on his closest friends Braque and Apollinaire shadowed his painting and drove him off to Rome--back to the ancient world. For Picasso art would always have a magic function. As Richardson reveals the artist saw himself as a shaman who could use his art to cast spells both good and bad and play all manner of ingenious and sardonic games. This greatest of modern artists knew better than anyone how to outrage us also how to fascinate puzzle and disturb us. Above all he makes us perceive reality afresh by re-energizing our minds as well as our eyes. . 1996. 0394559185 . Random House hardcover

Picasso’s secretive love affair with Marie-Therese Walter which began in 1927 inspired a radical shift in his conception of portraiture. The exhibition and catalogue present Marie-Therese as a primary vehicle for his experimentation during the period including several works never before seen in the United States as well as previously unpublished personal letters and photographs. Picasso and Marie-Therese sheds new light on the interpretation of one of the most creative relationships in Picasso’s rich and varied oeuvre. . 2011. 0847837130 . Rizzoli hardcover

The first concerns the purely visual interactions between artists and artistic practices that unfold in pictures which often transgress the categorical boundaries modern scholars place on their work such as sacred and profane antique and modern and Italian and Northern. In this context the images themselves - those of Bruegel his contemporaries and predecessors - make up the primary source material from which the author argues. The second deals with the dialogue that occurred between viewers in front of pictures and the way in which pictorial strategies facilitated their visual experience and challenged their analytical capabilities. In this regard the author expands his base of primary sources to include convivial texts dialogues and correspondences such as those between Erasmus and his friends as well as inventories of homes and texts by rhetoricians and Northern humanists addressing art theoretical issues. Challenging the conventional wisdom that the artist eschewed Italianate influences this study demonstrates how Bruegel's later peasant paintings reveal a complicated artistic dialogue in which visual concepts and pictorial motifs from Italian and classical ideas are employed for a subject that was increasingly recognized in the sixteenth century as a specifically Northern phenomenon. Similar to the Dutch rhetorician societies and French Pleiade poets who cultivated the vernacular language using classical Latin the function of this interpictorial discourse the author argues was not simply to imitate international trends a common practice during the period but to use it to cultivate his own visual vernacular language. Although the focus is primarily on Bruegel's later work the author's conclusions are applied to sketch a broader understanding of both the artist himself and the vibrant artistic dialogue occurring in the Netherlands during the sixteenth century. . 2011. 0754668169 .

In recent decades however their lands have been turned into desert as the sea itself became desiccated--one of the major environmental disasters of our generation.
