  • Modernism 1 Modernism
    Modernism 1 Modernism Modernism, in its broadest definition, is modern thought, character, or practice. More specifically, the term describes the modernist movement, its set of cultural tendencies and array of associated cultural movements, originally arising from wide-scale and far-reaching changes to Western society in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Modernism was a revolt against the conservative values of realism.[2] [3] [4] Arguably the most paradigmatic motive of modernism is the rejection of tradition and its reprise, incorporation, rewriting, recapitulation, revision and parody in new forms.[5] [6] [7] Modernism rejected the lingering certainty of Enlightenment thinking and also rejected the existence of a compassionate, all-powerful Creator God.[8] [9] In general, the term modernism encompasses the activities and output of those who felt the "traditional" forms of art, architecture, literature, religious faith, social organization and daily life were becoming outdated in the new economic, social, and political conditions of an Hans Hofmann, "The Gate", 1959–1960, emerging fully industrialized world.

  • Press Release Keith Coventry Junk & Pure Junk
    PRESS RELEASE KEITH COVENTRY JUNK & PURE JUNK 24 February – 4 April 2018 Official opening and book release on Saturday February 24th, from 5 to 7 pm. Reflex Amsterdam is proud to announce the first Benelux exhibition by internationally acclaimed British artist Keith Coventry. Widely admired for his work which takes aspects modernism and grafting them on to socio- political issues, Coventry appropriates global symbols of junk culture – the golden McDonald’s arch, in particular – and recontextualises them, inviting the viewer to consider these logos afresh in a gallery context. Working in white monochrome, or colour, he hones in on the curves of the infamous “M”, cropping, recasting and framing, to striking minimalist effect. In his extensive “Estate Painting” series Coventry focuses on the architectural layouts of London’s notorious tower blocks and council estates and distils them into abstract colour block patterns which have been likened to works by Russian Constructivist painter Kazimir Malevich. In employing these tropes of modernism, Coventry has said he is returning to the original ideas of utopianism behind these urban projects – now widely regarded as failures. As Coventry put it, this kind of social housing: “it was a promise given at the beginning of the 20th century that was unfulfilled.” Living in central London, his immediate urban environs have remained Coventry’s main source of inspiration: “Making art is about the things that surround me.” Yet, despite the socio-political undertone of his work, Coventry insists: “I’m totally ambivalent. I have no message. People can take one side or another. I don’t have any polemic or didactic stance.” Coventry was born in Burnley in Lancashire, in 1958 and studied at London’s progressive Chelsea school of Art.

  • 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.

  • It's PORCH Season
    HOME OUTDOOR LIVING it’s PORCH season The time for winter hibernating has passed. Turn your porch into a space that will tempt you to stay outdoors until the first snowflakes start falling again. chic & TRADITIONAL 1 Do you dream of shingle-clad MAJOR PIECES bungalows and garden Approach the parties? Try on a new-traditional layout as you would look. Start with wicker or an indoor living room rattan furniture and bold prints. with comfortable seating in traditional shapes. Try a wicker settee that mimics the silhouette of a scroll-arm sofa, left, and deep armchairs. 2 HIGH DEFINITION Anchor the seating arrangement with an outdoor rug. Black-and-white is a perennially sophisticated choice, and a graphic print helps camouflage dirt. Choose the pattern to kick the formality up (geometric fretwork) or down (thick stripes). 3 PUNCHY COLOR Accessories in saturated oranges and hot pinks energize the neutral backdrop. Contrast geometrics with at least one botanical or abstract print for personality. 4 SLEEK FINISH A hint of glamour keeps a traditional scheme from looking staid. Try a high-gloss accent like a glazed ceramic garden stool. PHOTO: TRIA GIOVAN 38 | April 2018 BY MALLORY ABREU HOME OUTDOOR LIVING easy & BEACHY No matter how far you are from the coast, this casual style says relaxation. Woven textures and sunny colors are at its core. 1 AIRY FURNITURE Look for pieces with open frames and lighter lines—something the ocean breeze could pass through.
