The Symbolist Prints of Edvard Munch: The Vivian and David Campbell Collection

2 reviews
Elizabeth Prelinger, Michael Parke-Taylor

Yale University Press, 1996

The Print and the Darkness
He was bound determined not to paint people reading and women knitting, but instead to show people who breathed emotions into his darkly suggestive prints. "Death in the sickroom" showed family members at the ages when they were painted, not when his sister Sophie died; it expressed unity in grief as one of death's longlasting effects by seemingly overlapping planes flowing together across ...

Eric Fischl: Paintings And Drawings 1979-2001
Carolin Bohlmann, Jorg Garbrecht, ...

Hatje Cantz Publishers, 2003

In the 1980s, American painter Eric Fischl mercilessly captured moments in the lives of the American middle classes. Among the painters of his generation, which most notably include David Salle and Julian Schnabel, Fischl is widely recognized as engaging particularly intensely with this typical national theme. As Fischl himself tells it, painting is a process that turns thoughts into feelings, and that uses form and color to create meaning: ...

Let's See: Writings on Art from The New Yorker

The New Yorker art critic
Schjeldahl's accumulation of reviews from the renaissance to recent contemporary art is a fun read once you get past the author's rather pedantic writing style. I don't think I have ever encountered "insouciance" more frequently in my life. His interview with gallerist Marian Goodman was better than some of the art reviews. He has strong opinions when it comes to contemporary art--and ...

Cindy Sherman: Centerfolds

Skarstedt Fine Art, 2004

A Long Wait, But Well Worth It
Although the "Centerfolds" were shot back in the 1980's it took until now for them to be all collected in a book collection. They are some of Cindy Sherman's best work and they are presented beautifully in this very wide shaped book. The book was hard to get a hold of as it was specially produced by an art gallery, but as a fan it is a great addition to the "Complete Film Stills" book. Highly ...

Richter Verlag, 2004

It is in German
Wonderful book but nowhere does the discripton indicate that the book is not in English. It is in Geman. If you don't read German and want to just look at the pictures then buy it.
