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.

  • Berlin Wall Mural 1986 ———— Paint on Wall, 91.44 Metres ————
    LOST Theme Keith Haring 1958–1990 ART Transient Berlin Wall Mural 1986 ———— Paint on wall, 91.44 metres ———— Berlin Wall Between 1949 and 1961 approximately 3.5 million people, or twenty per cent of the population, escaped from East Germany to the West. Most slipped through the border controls in Berlin, then a divided city controlled by four occupying powers (America, Britain, France and Russia). Concerned at the rising numbers of defectors and the effects on the economy and the image of the communist regime, the East German government erected in 1961 first a barbed wire fence and then a concrete wall with watch towers and anti-vehicle trenches. Called by the East German authorities the ‘Anti-Fascist Protection Rampart’ (with the implication that West Germany had not been fully de-Nazified), and described occasionally by the West Berlin city government as the ‘Wall of Shame’ (because of its prevention of movement, and consequent separation, of friends and families), the Berlin Wall became a potent symbol of the Iron Curtain separating East and West Europe. Some East Germans continued to try to escape over the wall but generally failed: between one and two hundred people were killed in the attempt, or used the wall as a place to commit suicide, from 1961 to 1989. Checkpoint Charlie – or, officially, Checkpoint C – was one of the more visible controlled border crossings between East and West Berlin. Featured in a number of classic spy films and books, it became something of a tourist attraction for visitors to West Berlin. As the years passed, artists and graffitists painted on the western side of the wall, notwithstanding the dangers of antagonising the East German soldiers guarding it (the wall stood a couple of metres inside the East German border).

My hope was to notice my own interaction with objects more precisely and to pursue poetic questions (and philosophical implications about subjectivity and objectivity) that have been asked before by modernist writers such as Gertrude Stein and William Carlos Williams. These two writers in particular had their own reasons for pursuing, through their writing, basic questions about representation of the world in art and language. Stein’s program, modeled after her contemporaries Picasso and Braque, was to offer a fractal, or fragmented sort of representation of the world. Her cubist-inspired presentation in language of portraits of people, for instance, offered in language what the cubists were doing in the visual realm— “objects” of inquiry were shown from multiple perspectives, all at once.

It shimmers like an art display in its own right, facing in towards Foreword the glass central courtyard in Renzo Piano’s wonderful 2014 extension to the Harvard Art Museums. The collection seems, somehow, suspended within the sky. From the public galleries it is tantalising, almost intoxicating, to see the glass-fronted cases full of their bright bottles up there in the administra- tive area of the museum. The shelves are arranged mostly by hue; the blues are graded in ombre effect from deepest midnight to the fading in- digo of favourite jeans, with startling, pleasing juxtapositions of turquoise (flasks of lightest green malachite; summer sky-coloured copper carbon- ate and swimming pool verdigris) next to navy, next to something that was once blue and is now simply, chalk. A few feet along, the bright alizarin crimsons slake to brownish brazil wood upon one side, and blush to madder pink the other. This curious chromatic ordering makes the whole collection look like an installation exploring the very nature of painting.
