2013ref. 411177Houston: Menil Foundation; Yale 2013. First edition. Generally a clean copy. 11 x 9.75 inches. 128 pages. Profusely illustrated in color. Original cloth; pictorial dust jacket. Includes 62 color illustrations. "Luc Tuymans b. 1958 is a painter engaged with "figuration" using imagery that he reworks in a critical or self-critical way. He combines images from various sources--photographs film stills mirror images--with a spare palette unexpected cropping and blurring to reinforce the painted image's status as a replica. Perhaps more than any other genre portraiture allows Tuymans to explore the balance between revealing and concealing and to comment on history and its perpetrators. Portraits. Luc Tuymans presents 35 paintings from bodies of work ranging over the artist's entire career. Most seem conventional portraits --Himmler 1997/98 A Flemish Intellectual 1995--but others such as Bloodstains 1993 and Fingers 1995 exhibit the artist's elliptical approach to re-presentation. Tuymans's canvases are placed in counterpoint to his selections from the Menil Collection: masks statuary and paintings from African ancient Mediterranean and Native American cultures as well as European figurative works. The assembly explores such themes as death and memorials ritual or religion power evildoers and altruism" the publisher. Menil Foundation; Yale unknown books
