Bonnard's Legacy Bonnard’s Legacy HOW DID BONNARD’S CONTRIBUTION AFFECT LATER ARTISTS? Six take-aways about Pierre Bonnard Le Nabi Japonnard: he adopted several techniques from Japanese woodblock print artists. The intimist: he relied on his wife, family and friends as models. The decorator: his early work was intended as decoration as well as artistic expression. The colorist: he composed paintings by arranging colors on the canvas. The optic adventurer: his paintings provide adventures for vision for the observers. The sensationalist: his paintings celebrate sensual experience.

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.

  • La Muerte Del Artista Moderno: Rothko En El Umbral De “El Fin Del Arte”//
    //LA MUERTE DEL ARTISTA MODERNO: ROTHKO EN EL UMBRAL DE “EL FIN DEL ARTE”// ---------------------------------------------------- MÍRIAM PAULO UNIVERSITAT POMPEU FABRA /// PALABRAS CLAVE: Rothko, Dark Paintings, Espacio-color, 1964: “el fin del arte”, Tate Modern. RESUMEN: Mark Rothko es un artista asombrosamente ambiguo y contradictorio. Es necesario ser muy cauteloso cuando uno se aproxima a sus pinturas: una “casa con muchas mansiones”, como una vez observó de Kooning. Su muerte no es menos compleja ni confusa. Meticulosamente preparada, cada detalle apuntaba hacia un sacrificio ritual que Robert Motherwell entendió como el nacimiento de un nuevo mito moderno. El objetivo de este artículo es reconsiderar el papel que Rothko desempeñó durante la denominada “muerte del arte” en los sesenta. También presenta una retrospectiva de sus obras tardías y murales donde la pintura inunda el espacio, creando “un lugar” que Rothko definiría como una experiencia de “cierto estado de ánimo”. Se basa en el itinerario diseñado por la Tate Modern en ocasión de la exposición inaugurada en septiembre del 2008. El artículo también contempla las formas en que su estética ha influenciado en artistas actuales tales como James Turrell. KEYWORDS: Rothko, Dark Paintings, Colourfield, 1964: “the End of Art”, Tate Modern. ABSTRACT: Mark Rothko is an uncannily ambiguous and contradictory artist. One needs to be wary while approaching his paintings: a “house with many mansions” as de Kooning once remarked. His death is not any less complex or confusing. Thoroughly staged as it was, every detail aimed at a ritualistic sacrifice that Robert Motherwell understood as the beginning of a new modern myth. The aim of this article is to 93 REVISTA FORMA VOL 00 TARDOR ‘09 MÍRIAM PAULO reconsider Rothko’s role during the so-called “end of art” in the sixties.

    Tate Papers Issue 11 2009: Renate Meijer and Minnie Scott http://www.tate.org.uk/research/tateresearch/tatepapers/09spring/meijer... ISSN 1753-9854 TATE’S ONLINE RESEARCH JOURNAL Tools to Understand: An Evaluation of the Interpretation Material used in Tate Modern’s Rothko Exhibition Renate Meijer and Minnie Scott For Tate Modern’s exhibition Rothko , which opened in September 2008, the Interpretation team, working with the exhibition curators, developed a set of interpretative materials for visitors: wall texts and captions, a booklet and a multimedia tour. The number of wall texts was limited but the multimedia tour quite elaborate, including poetry, music and different perspectives on the work. The booklet provided the overall idea of the exhibition and context, while the multimedia tour focused more on the (appreciation of the) object, providing help to look at the works. The Interpretation team was interested in what kind of visitors were coming to the exhibition and how they would respond to the interpretation material on offer. In this same period a colleague from the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam (Renate Meijer) temporarily joined the team. The Rijksmuseum had conducted several audience surveys in which educational resources were tested on visitors with different levels of experience, confidence, or, to borrow Pierre Bourdieu’s term: ‘cultural capital’. The Tate Interpretation team wanted to look at the exhibition resources from this point of view. We decided to compare this model with a visitor segmentation framework already developed for Tate in 2004, based on the behaviour and motivation of visitors: ‘Anatomy of a Visit’, Morris Hargreaves McIntyre, 2004. The team was interested to see how both methods were interrelated and how they would be able to shed light on the interpretation material.

  • Mark Rothko Moved Through Many Artistic Styles Until Reaching His Signature 1950S Motif of Soft, Rectangular Forms Floating on a Stained Field of Color
    "If you are only moved by color relationships, you are missing the point. I am interested in expressing the big emotions - tragedy, ecstasy, doom." SYNOPSIS A prominent figure among the New York School painters, Mark Rothko moved through many artistic styles until reaching his signature 1950s motif of soft, rectangular forms floating on a stained field of color. Heavily influenced by mythology and philosophy, he was insistent that his art was filled with content, and brimming with ideas. A fierce champion of social revolutionary thought, and the right to self- expression, Rothko also expounded his views in numerous essays and critical reviews. KEY IDEAS Highly informed by Nietzsche, Greek mythology, and his Russian-Jewish heritage, Rothko's art was profoundly imbued © The Art Story Foundation – All rights Reserved For more movements, artists and ideas on Modern Art visit www.TheArtStory.org with emotional content that he articulated through a range of styles that evolved from figurative to abstract. Rothko's early figurative work - including landscapes, still lifes, figure studies, and portraits - demonstrated an ability to blend Expressionism and Surrealism. His search for new forms of expression led to his color field paintings, which employed shimmering color to convey a sense of spirituality. Rothko maintained the social revolutionary ideas of his youth throughout his life. In particular he supported artist's total freedom of expression, which he felt was compromised by the market. This belief often put him at odds with the art world establishment, leading him to publicly respond to critics, and occasionally refuse commissions, sales and exhibitions. ARTIST BIOGRAPHY Childhood Born in Dvinsk, Russia (in what is now Latvia), Marcus Rothkovich was the fourth child born to Jacob and Anna Rothkovich.
