Her art has awed critics and found buyers since she began showing it, in the early nineteen-sixties, and her paintings now bring between three and five million on the primary market. Still, she produces relatively little work and vigorously resists all forms of self-promotion. From the late sixties until quite recently, her subject matter has been limited to a few recurrent motifs—oceans, deserts, night skies, spiderwebs, antique writing slates—which she explores, patiently Vija Celmins obsessively, in drawings, oil paintings, prints, and sculptural objects that are unlike those of any other artist. She has erased the line between figuration and abstraction. Composition, bright color, narrative, and the human figure have no place in her work, which, at its best, conveys a timeless, impersonal, and rather cold beauty that can be inexplicably moving. When I walked through the exhibition with her in December, she was not happy about the lighting in the first two galleries, where her early paintings were hung. A technician went off to adjust it. One gallery was dedicated to the paintings that she considers her first mature works, all done in —deadpan, Vija Celmins still-lifes of functional objects in the studio she had at the time Vija Celmins Los Angeles. Some Vija Celmins these, the heater especially, with its glowing red coil, had a somewhat ominous look.

  • Mary Boone's Business Partner Is Suing the Jailed Dealer Over $15
    AiA News-Service Art and Law Mary Boone’s Business Partner Is Suing the Jailed Dealer Over $15 Million in Art That She Allegedly Took From the Gallery for Herself The lawsuit alleges that Boone sold gallery-owned artworks and pocketed the money. Sarah Cascone, February 26, 2020 Mary Boone in 2013. Photo by Neil Rasmus, courtesy of BFA. The legal woes continue for imprisoned art dealer Mary Boone. A gallery partner and former employee, James Oliver, has filed a lawsuit against Boone seeking $44,325 in unpaid wages and to protect his 10 percent equity share in the gallery, accusing the dealer of transferring millions in gallery funds to her personal bank account. In 2019, Boone pleaded guilty to filing false tax returns. She was subsequently sentenced to 30 months in jail, despite appeals for leniency from many prominent members of the art world. As a result, Boone closed the gallery she had run since 1977. Oliver, who first began working for Boone in 1995, was among those who spoke up in Boone’s defense. He praised his boss, noting that Boone had “successfully trained dozens of aspiring gallerists who have gone on to very successful careers as gallery owners themselves or directors of other major galleries. Along the way she has given endless hours of her time instilling the positive attitude and the exacting work ethic that her employees have needed to succeed in a very difficult business.” But their relationship has soured since Oliver resigned in March 2019. “Mr. Oliver attempted on numerous occasions to amicably resolve this dispute before filing a complaint,” wrote his attorney, Brett Gallaway, in an email to Artnet News.

  • The Economist Print Edition
    The Pop master's highs and lows Nov 26th 2009 From The Economist print edition Andy Warhol is the bellwether The Andy Warhol Foundation $100m-worth of Elvises “EIGHT ELVISES” is a 12-foot painting that has all the virtues of a great Andy Warhol: fame, repetition and the threat of death. The canvas is also awash with the artist’s favourite colour, silver, and dates from a vintage Warhol year, 1963. It did not leave the home of Annibale Berlingieri, a Roman collector, for 40 years, but in autumn 2008 it sold for over $100m in a deal brokered by Philippe Ségalot, the French art consultant. That sale was a world record for Warhol and a benchmark that only four other artists—Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Willem De Kooning and Gustav Klimt— have ever achieved. Warhol’s oeuvre is huge. It consists of about 10,000 artworks made between 1961, when the artist gave up graphic design, and 1987, when he died suddenly at the age of 58. Most of these are silk-screen paintings portraying anything from Campbell’s soup cans to Jackie Kennedy and Mao Zedong, drag queens and commissioning collectors. Warhol also created “disaster paintings” from newspaper clippings, as well as abstract works such as shadows and oxidations. The paintings come in series of various sizes. There are only 20 “Most Wanted Men” canvases, for example, but about 650 “Flower” paintings. Warhol also made sculpture and many experimental films, which contribute greatly to his legacy as an innovator. The Warhol market is considered the bellwether of post-war and contemporary art for many reasons, including its size and range, its emblematic transactions and the artist’s reputation as a trendsetter.

  • Ross Bleckner
    ROSS BLECKNER Ross Bleckner is an American painter. Bleckner was born May 12, 1949 in New York City and is an influential contemporary artist. Perhaps best known for his paintings dealing with loss and memory, Bleckner notably tackled the emotional toll brought by the AIDS crisis in the 1980s. “Life is short. Life goes fast,” he has said. “And what I really want to do in my life is to bring something new, something beautiful and something filled with light into the world.” His poetic works often employ recurring symbolic imagery, such as candelabras, doves, and flowers, rendered with a blurred, glowing sense of light. Bleckner began exhibiting with Mary Boone gallery in 1979, and was the subject of a retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum in New York in 1995. His work can be found in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh, and the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, among others. Bleckner lives and works in New York, NY. Not only has Mr. Bleckner had a profound impact of shaping the New York art world, his philanthropic efforts have enabled many community organizations to perform their vital work. For ten years, Mr. Bleckner served as president of AIDS Community Research Initiative of America (ACRIA), a non-profit community-based AIDS research and treatment education center. More recently, he has been working with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime in Northern Uganda to help rehabilitate and raise money for ex-child soldiers.

Since opening his first art foundry in the late 1960s, Polich has worked closely with the most significant artists of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. His foundries—Tallix (1970–2006), Polich of Polich’s energy and invention, Art Works (1995–2006), and Polich dedication to craft, and Tallix (2006–present)—have produced entrepreneurial acumen on the renowned artworks like Jeff Koons’ work of artists.

  • MIGUEL ABREU GALLERY 88 Eldridge Street / 36 Orchard Street
    MIGUEL ABREU GALLERY R. H. QUAYTMAN R. H. Quaytman approaches painting as if it were poetry: when reading a poem, one notices particular words, and how each is not just that one word, but other words as well. Quaytman's paintings, organized into chapters structured in the form of a book, have a grammar, a syntax, and a vocabulary. While the work is bounded by a rigid structure on a material level—appearing only on beveled plywood panels in eight predetermined sizes derived from the golden ratio—open-ended content creates permutations that result in an archive without end. Quaytman's practice engages three distinct stylistic modes: photo-based silkscreens, optical patterns such as moiré and scintillating grids, and small hand-painted oil works. Each chapter is developed in relation to a specific exhibition opportunity, and consequently, each work is iconographically bound to its initial site of presentation. However, Quaytman's work is ultimately not about site-specificity, but about painting itself, and its relation to the archive. It seeks to graft subject matter and context onto a foundation of abstraction by engaging, in equal measure, the legacies of modernist painting and institutional critique. In her work, the self-involvement of the former and the social-situatedness of the latter paradoxically coexist. The content of Quaytman's work betrays a labyrinthine encyclopedia of interests; she excavates social and institutional histories and places them alongside autobiographical and literary references. Her practice is further characterized by a backwards glance: its conceptual and historical scaffolding is fashioned out of the work of other artists as well as her own; earlier works reappear in subsequent chapters to create a mise-en-abyme of referentiality.

    Order Reconstruction By Ping Jie Innovators of ink often have two orientations of value: look inward and look outward. People who look inward pay attention to traditional subversion and innovation, while people who look outward pay attention to the connection and achievements within the history of contemporary art. Inward looking artists disregard Western art, and their works exhibit an oriental aesthetic mood that the literati is fond of. Outward looking artists, on the other hand, try to seek consensus and resonance from an international art stage while their works present both the purity of artistic body and the mystery of Oriental charm. Although the two are not completely disconnected, an ink artist's value orientation has a consequential impact on his artistic direction. Whether it is looking in or looking out, innovation of art always encompasses a lineage of heritage and reconstruction. The former triggers a leap of the Chinese art history, whereas the latter integrates with contemporary art history. Most importantly, the artists are always sticklers of their own ideas and never become ‘the others' (losing themselves). We can see traces of appropriation and reference in the works of contemporary art masters, but they are not indeed ‘captured' by those elements they looked into. In mid-1980s, New York minimalist master Brice Marden's style suddenly turned in favor of abstract expression. He created the piece<Han Shan Research 1-35> (1988-1990) based on his study of the Chinese Tang Dynasty poet monk Hanshan's work. In this piece Brice Marden uses calligraphic strokes at liberty in regard of the cursive script.
