Jasper Johns: an allegory of painting, 1955 - 1965 / Weiss, Jeffrey 1959  Book
Weiss, Jeffrey Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication Washington, D.C., National Gallery of Art, 1959.
Description 276pWhite Spine
Summary/Abstract During the first decade of his career Jasper Johns produced a landmark body of work that has proven to be a deep resource for artists midcentury. Within this larger oeuvre lies a narrative concerning the very premises of art-making. This narrative is based on the unfolding relationship of four motifs: the target; the "device" (a pivoted slat used to scrape paint); the stenciled naming of colors; and the trace or imprint of the body. Five essays examine Johns' work of the first decade from various perspectives, including those of the historian, the artist-critic, and the conservator. The book features 170 color reproductions as well as previously unpublished archival photographs of the artist at work in his studio.

Mary Cassatt: Painter of modern women / Pollock, Griselda 1998  Book
Pollock, Griselda Book

Publication London, Thames & Hudson, 1998.
Description 224pBlack Spine
Series World of Art
Summary/Abstract This radically new study redefines the American artist Mary Cassatt's status in the Parisian avant-garde and in American art, placing her work in the wider context of nineteenth-century feminism and art theory. Cassatt's art brought a New Woman's perspective to familiar spaces: the theater, the drawing-room and garden, the studio. Admired by Degas - who invited her to show with the Impressionists in 1877 - Cassatt's work reveals her profound study of Old Masters and keen responses to contemporary French and Spanish painters. Griselda Pollock puts a fresh emphasis on Cassatt's interest in Manet and her influence on American collections of French modernism. She argues that Cassatt's experimentation with etching and pastel from the late 1880s enabled her to represent children and women without sentimentality but with a deepening awareness of a complex psychological charge.
