  • The Origins and Meanings of Non-Objective Art by Adam Mccauley
    The Origins and Meanings of Non-Objective Art The Origins and Meanings of Non-Objective Art Adam McCauley, Studio Art- Painting Pope Wright, MS, Department of Fine Arts ABSTRACT Through my research I wanted to find out the ideas and meanings that the originators of non- objective art had. In my research I also wanted to find out what were the artists’ meanings be it symbolic or geometric, ideas behind composition, and the reasons for such a dramatic break from the academic tradition in painting and the arts. Throughout the research I also looked into the resulting conflicts that this style of art had with critics, academia, and ultimately governments. Ultimately I wanted to understand if this style of art could be continued in the Post-Modern era and if it could continue its vitality in the arts today as it did in the past. Introduction Modern art has been characterized by upheavals, break-ups, rejection, acceptance, and innovations. During the 20th century the development and innovations of art could be compared to that of science. Science made huge leaps and bounds; so did art. The innovations in travel and flight, the finding of new cures for disease, and splitting the atom all affected the artists and their work. Innovative artists and their ideas spurred revolutionary art and followers. In Paris, Pablo Picasso had fragmented form with the Cubists. In Italy, there was Giacomo Balla and his Futurist movement. In Germany, Wassily Kandinsky was working with the group the Blue Rider (Der Blaue Reiter), and in Russia Kazimer Malevich was working in a style that he called Suprematism.

  • Bauhaus 1 Bauhaus
    Bauhaus 1 Bauhaus Staatliches Bauhaus, commonly known simply as Bauhaus, was a school in Germany that combined crafts and the fine arts, and was famous for the approach to design that it publicized and taught. It operated from 1919 to 1933. At that time the German term Bauhaus, literally "house of construction" stood for "School of Building". The Bauhaus school was founded by Walter Gropius in Weimar. In spite of its name, and the fact that its founder was an architect, the Bauhaus did not have an architecture department during the first years of its existence. Nonetheless it was founded with the idea of creating a The Bauhaus Dessau 'total' work of art in which all arts, including architecture would eventually be brought together. The Bauhaus style became one of the most influential currents in Modernist architecture and modern design.[1] The Bauhaus had a profound influence upon subsequent developments in art, architecture, graphic design, interior design, industrial design, and typography. The school existed in three German cities (Weimar from 1919 to 1925, Dessau from 1925 to 1932 and Berlin from 1932 to 1933), under three different architect-directors: Walter Gropius from 1919 to 1928, 1921/2, Walter Gropius's Expressionist Hannes Meyer from 1928 to 1930 and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe Monument to the March Dead from 1930 until 1933, when the school was closed by its own leadership under pressure from the Nazi regime. The changes of venue and leadership resulted in a constant shifting of focus, technique, instructors, and politics. For instance: the pottery shop was discontinued when the school moved from Weimar to Dessau, even though it had been an important revenue source; when Mies van der Rohe took over the school in 1930, he transformed it into a private school, and would not allow any supporters of Hannes Meyer to attend it.

  • Berta Fischer, Björn Dahlem, Naum Gabo Into Space
    PRESS RELEASE Exhibtion Berta Fischer, Björn Dahlem, Naum Gabo Into Space Haus am Waldsee International Art in Berlin 18 October 2020 to 10 January 2021 Press preview: Fri, 16 October 2020, 11 am. Berta Fischer and Björn Dahlem will be present. „Into Space“ deals with the human longing for space, weightlessness, distant galaxies and the belief in hitherto incomprehensible energies beyond our perception. Three sculp- tors reflect upon the interfaces between art and science over a century and from Berlin. Following the exhibition „Lynn Chadwick, Hans Uhlmann, Katja Strunz“, which explored the subject of „Fold“ at Haus am Waldsee in 2019, Björn Dahlem (*1974), Berta Fischer (*1973) and Naum Gabo (1890 - 1977) are now taking up an artistic conversation about space and time between 1920 and 2020 with installations and sculptures. For Naum Gabo, art in the 1920s was a means of gaining knowledge about the physics of our planet. The Jewish-Russian artist, who had emigrated to Berlin, had shortly before written the „Realistic Manifesto“ with his brother Antoine Pevsner, which was ground-breaking for sculpture. He was constantly searching for new materials and means of expression, „not for the sake of the new, but to find expression for the new view of the world around me and for new insights into the forces of life and nature within me”. Even before the First World War, the latest disco- veries in natural science, Albert Einstein‘s theory of relativity and the idea of the fourth dimen- sion as hyperspaces had already profoundly shaken the previous understanding of the laws of nature, which Gabo experienced directly during his studies of medicine and natural sciences in Munich from 1910 onwards.

  • The Artwork Caught by the Tail*
    The Artwork Caught by the Tail* GEORGE BAKER If it were married to logic, art would be living in incest, engulfing, swallowing its own tail. —Tristan Tzara, Manifeste Dada 1918 The only word that is not ephemeral is the word death. To death, to death, to death. The only thing that doesn’t die is money, it just leaves on trips. —Francis Picabia, Manifeste Cannibale Dada, 1920 Je m’appelle Dada He is staring at us, smiling, his face emerging like an exclamation point from the gap separating his first from his last name. “Francis Picabia,” he writes, and the letters are blunt and childish, projecting gaudily off the canvas with the stiff pride of an advertisement, or the incontinence of a finger painting. (The shriek of the commodity and the babble of the infant: Dada always heard these sounds as one and the same.) And so here is Picabia. He is staring at us, smiling, a face with- out a body, or rather, a face that has lost its body, a portrait of the artist under the knife. Decimated. Decapitated. But not quite acephalic, to use a Bataillean term: rather the reverse. Here we don’t have the body without a head, but heads without bodies, for there is more than one. Picabia may be the only face that meets our gaze, but there is also Metzinger, at the top and to the right. And there, just below * This essay was written in the fall of 1999 to serve as a catalog essay for the exhibition Worthless (Invaluable): The Concept of Value in Contemporary Art, curated by Carlos Basualdo at the Moderna Galerija Ljubljana, Slovenia.

  • The Studio Homes of Daniel Chester French by Karen Zukowski
    SPRING 2018 Volume 25, No. 1 NEWSLETTER City/Country: The Studio Homes of Daniel Chester French by karen zukowski hat can the studios of Daniel Chester French (1850–1931) tell us about the man who built them? He is often described as a Wsturdy American country boy, practically self-taught, who, due to his innate talent and sterling character, rose to create the most heroic of America’s heroic sculptures. French sculpted the seated figure in Washington, D.C.’s Lincoln Memorial, which is, according to a recent report, the most popular statue in the United States.1 Of course, the real story is more complex, and examination of French’s studios both compli- cates and expands our understanding of him. For most of his life, French kept a studio home in New York City and another in Massachusetts. This city/country dynamic was essential to his creative process. BECOMING AN ARTIST French came of age as America recovered from the trauma of the Civil War and slowly prepared to become a world power. He was born in 1850 to an established New England family of gentleman farmers who also worked as lawyers and judges and held other leadership positions in civic life. French’s father was a lawyer who eventually became assistant secretary of the U.S. Treasury under President Grant. Dan (as his family called him) came to his profession while they were living in Concord, Massachusetts. This was the town renowned for plain living and high thinking, the home of literary giants Amos Bronson Alcott, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Henry David Thoreau at Walden Pond nearby.
