Neo Rauch: Neue Rollen2 reviews
Markus Bruderlin, Gottfried Boehm, ...

Dumont, 2007

Endlessly and compellingly intriguing
I keep returning to this book over and over. I find Rauch's work endlessly and compellingly intriguing. A recent tribute to the late filmmaker Ingmar Bergman included the following description of Bergman that could easily apply to Neo Rauch: Kael had "observed that in much of his work 'the imagery derives its power from unconscious or not fully understood associations' that could cause Bergman ...
  
  











  



  
Archisculpture
Markus Bruderlin

Hatje Cantz Publishers, 2005

Description: ArchiSCULPTURE examines modern sculpture's proximity to and interplay with architecture, a phenomenon long neglected in the history of sculpture--but especially pronounced in the 20th century. More than any other medium, it is sculpture that crosses most with architecture: each exists in three-dimensional space, changing as the viewer moves around and through it. Not only have they shared materials--they have shared many ...
  
  











  



  
Swiss Made: Precision and Madness: Swiss Art from Hodler to Hirschhorn
Markus Bruderlin, Michael Schindhelm, ...

Hatje Cantz, 2007

At last, the broader movements of twentieth-century Swiss art--and the individual artists behind them--are tracked through the present day in one standard-setting publication. Swiss Made: Precision and Madness sets the famous Swiss tendency toward precision and order alongside the tendency toward obstinacy and chaos, pairing canonical works with pieces made within the past 40 years. Provocative pairs include Max Bill and John Armleder, Ferdinand ...
  
  











  



  
Philip Taaffe: The Life Forms
Kay Heymer, Brooks Adams, ...

Hatje Cantz, 2008

New York-based painter Philip Taaffe became internationally known as part of the early-80s Appropriation art movement for his unique approach, which combined abstraction with ornamental art from a variety of cultures. Poet and critic John Yau has written, "In attempting to connect the microcosmic with the macrocosmic, Taaffe constructs a metaphysical vertical axis that connects earth to sky, as well as the ancient to the postmodern." Taaffe has ...

Japan and the West: The Filled Void
Markus Bruderlin

Merrell, 2008

In Japanese culture, emptiness and simplicity have long been the central principles of design, and are allied closely to Zen Buddhism, which places an emphasis on spirituality. This fascinating book explores Western Minimalism and the concept of `meaningful emptiness' in Zen art, examining their differences and similarities. Examples of traditional Japanese craftsmanship are juxtaposed with works of Western art: Barnett Newman's Gate from the ...

Viennese Silver: Modern Design 1780-1918
Jr Godsey William D., Markus Brüderlin, ...

Hatje Cantz Publishers, 2003

The history of modern design is not only older but much more multifaceted than commonly assumed. This thesis is elegantly borne out through an exploration of the work and influence of the Vienna avant-garde of the Biedermeier period, an era that brought forth shapes and forms which have lost none of their appeal, even today. If the towering objects that appear together on the cover of this book give the effect of a futuristic city, they thereby ...

Ornament and Abstraction
Markus Brüderlin

Dumont Buchverlag, 2002

The importance of ornament in the emergence and development of abstract art has long been underestimated. Indeed, such pioneers as Wassily Kandinsky and Piet Mondrian looked upon ornament as a sin in which abstraction should not indulge. Yet ornament had a decided if surreptitious impact on abstract art, this book demonstrates. Featuring four artists who help to highlight the role of ornament in the history of art-Kandinsky, Mondrian, Henri ...
  
  











  



  
Jasper Johns: Loans From the Artist
Markus Bruderlin, Richard Rosenblum, ...

Hatje Cantz Publishers, 2002

At the pinnacle of Abstract Expressionism, then 24-year-old Jasper Johns covered an entire canvas with a painted version of the American flag, and altered postwar American art forever. In just one work, a work which hung on the wall both like any other flag and like any other abstract painting, Johns had summed up the positions of Abstract Expressionism and European Concrete Art, and had pointed the way for both geometric hard-edge painting and ...
  
  











  



  
Anselm Kiefer: The Seven Heavenly Palaces 1973-20011 review
Markus Bruderlin, Anselm Kiefer

Hatje Cantz Publishers, 2002

A high-quality gallery book
Anselm Kiefer: The Seven Heavenly Palaces 1973-2001 is a truly impressive volume showcasing Anselm Kiefer's paintings in full color. An essay by Christoph Ransmayr and contributions by three others offer insightful commentary on the period pieces, but the principle focus of Anselm Kiefer: The Seven Heavenly Palaces 1973-2001 is upon the art itself. Enthusiastically recommended for personal, art ...
  
  











  



  
Expressiv!1 review
Paul J. McAuley, Donald Kuspit, ...

Hatje Cantz Verlag, 2003

Another equisite title to accompany a Fondation Beyeler exhibition!
The color reproductions are excellent, detailed text is easily read without flipping back and forth between pages, the scholarship is fine, and the book makes an excellent addition to current thoughts on expressionism. Plus, Amazon.com's discounts on fine art books are truly important in helping one build a great art library!
