(H/B) GEORGIA O'KEEFFE
TO SEE TAKES TIME
Εκδότης: MUSEUM OF MODERN ART (NEW YORK) Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2861-0122
In 1916, Georgia O'Keeffe wrote to Alfred Stieglitz that she had "made [a] drawing several times - never remembering that I had made it before - and not knowing where the idea came from." These drawings, and the majority of O'Keeffe's works in charcoal, watercolor, pastel, and graphite, belong to series, in which she develops and transforms motifs that lie between observation and abstraction. In the formative years of 1915 to 1918, she made as many works on paper as she would in the next forty years, producing sequences in watercolor of ab... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

(H/B) EMERGING ECOLOGIES
ARCHITECTURE AND THE RISE OF ENVIRONMENTALISM
Εκδότης: MUSEUM OF MODERN ART (NEW YORK) Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2861-0124
The exhibition and the accompanying publication will be the first comprehensive study of the history of environmental thinking in architecture at any major institution globally.

(P/B) DOROTHEA LANGE
MIGRANT MOTHER
Εκδότης: MUSEUM OF MODERN ART (NEW YORK) Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2861-0107
The United States was in the pall of the Great Depression when Dorothea Lange began documenting its effects with stirring photographs of human hardship. By 1935 she was working for one of Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal agencies, the Resettlement Administration (later the Farm Security Administration), bringing attention to the plights of sharecroppers, displaced families, and migrant workers. One day in Nipomo, California-driving home after a weeks-long assignment-the photographer stopped at a pea farm, where she came across a mother and... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

(P/B) WYETH
CHRISTINA'S WORLD
Εκδότης: MUSEUM OF MODERN ART (NEW YORK) Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2861-0118
In 1947 Andrew Wyeth produced what would become one of the most iconic paintings in American art: a desolate Maine landscape depicting a single figure, which he called Christina's World. This painting became one of the most simultaneously well-loved and scorned works of the century, igniting heated arguments about parochialism, sentimentality, kitsch, and art-world elitism that have continued to absorb the art world, even after the artist's death in 2009. An essay by curator Laura Hoptman revisits the genesis of the painting, Wyeth's curio... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

(P/B) FELIX FENEON
THE ANARCHIST AND THE AVANT-GARDE
Εκδότης: MUSEUM OF MODERN ART (NEW YORK) Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2861-0110
Though largely forgotten today and always discreetly behind the scenes in his own day, F?lix F?n?on had an extraordinary impact on the development of modernism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and played a key role in the careers of leading artists from Georges Seurat and Paul Signac to Pierre Bonnard and Henri Matisse. The centrepiece of the exhibition will be Signac's portrait of F?n?on, Opus 217. Against the Enamel of a Background Rhythmic with Beats and Angels, Tones, and Tints, Portrait of M. F?lix F?n?on in 1890 - an importa... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

(H/B) YAYOI KUSAMA
FROM HERE TO INFINITY
Εκδότης: MUSEUM OF MODERN ART (NEW YORK) Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2861-0120
Growing up in Japan, Yayoi Kusama dreamed of becoming an artist. In the fields of her family's nurseries she drew flowers and plants and stones, imagining the world around her as streams and clusters and arrays of dots. After studying traditional painting in Japan, Kusama moved to New York City, where she quickly became famous for her paintings patterned with dots. One of the most popular artists in the world, Kusama lives in Japan and still makes art every day. "Our earth is only one polka dot among a million stars in the cosmos," the art...

(P/B) MATISSE
THE RED STUDIO
Εκδότης: MUSEUM OF MODERN ART (NEW YORK) Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2861-0119
In 2022, The Museum of Modern Art and the Statens Museum for Kunst will present an ambitious dossier exhibition focusing on Henri Matisse's Red Studio from 1911. The large painting depicts the artist's work environment in Issy-les-Moulineaux, crowded with his own canvases, sculptures, furniture and decorative objects. Matisse's radical decision to saturate the work's surface with red has continued to fascinate generations of scholars and artists. Yet much remains to be explored in terms of the painting's genesis and history. This show pres... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

Edited by Jodi Hauptman and Samantha Friedman. With contributions by Kiko Aebi, Samantha Friedman, Jodi Hauptman, Annemarie Iker, and Laura Neufeld. "Drawing is merely the configuration of what you see," Paul C?zanne wrote, and his practice of drawing, he believed, taught him "to see well." C?zanne drew almost daily, hiking out into the hills or into dense forests for views of nature; returning repeatedly to subjects close at hand, such as his wife, his son, his own likeness, and the bottles, pitchers, and fruit in his home and studio; and...

(H/B) DOROTHEA LANGE
WORDS + PICTURES
Εκδότης: MUSEUM OF MODERN ART (NEW YORK) Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2861-0109
Towards the end of her life, Dorothea Lange (American, 1895-1965) remarked that "all photographs-not only those that are so-called 'documentary,' and every photograph really is documentary and belongs in some place, has a place in history-can be fortified by words." Though Lange's career is widely heralded, this connection between words and pictures has received scant attention. Published in conjunction with an exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, this catalogue provides a fresh approach to some of her best-known and beloved photographs... Διαβάστε περισσότερα... |

THE ARTIST REINVENTED
Εκδότης: MUSEUM OF MODERN ART (NEW YORK) Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2861-0112
"We regarded ourselves as engineers, we maintained that we were building things." So recalled the German artist Hannah H?ch, describing a radically new approach to artmaking in the interwar period that coincided with momentous shifts in industry, technology, and labor; watershed events such as World War I and the Russian Revolution; and the rise of fascism. Foregrounding innovators like Marianne Brandt, John Heartfield, Liubov Popova, and Aleksandr Rodchenko, Engineer, Agitator, Constructor examines the ambition to create new and dynamic a...
