Alexander Liberman Ascent 1970 Information Sheet on Alexander Liberman American, born in Russia, 1912–1999 Ascent 1970 Painted steel, 16 x 20 x 25 ft. Museum purchase with the Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts, 2005.1 Subject Matter No matter where one views Alexander Liberman’s Ascent, its appearance differs from the other sides. From one side, it appears rigidly geometric with horizontals and verticals; from another side, diagonal planes intersect with the horizontals and verticals; closer examination from yet another view reveals large cylindrical shapes, one of which appears to have been crushed by the thrust of a diagonal plane. All of these vertical, horizontal, and diagonal lines suggest movement within this monumental sculpture. In Ascent, Liberman combined large welded steel planes and cylinders, using the laws of physics and gravity to invoke principles of thrust and balance in three-dimensional space. Liberman made several simple preliminary sketches of Ascent. One of five large Liberman metal sculptures that incorporate a crushed element, Ascent almost certainly requires an outdoor installation to accommodate its size. Wm. Layman & Sons of Warren, Connecticut, fabricated Ascent at the artist’s studio/farm in Warren. Liberman supervised and participated in the fabrication, placing one of the large metal cylinders against a tree and ramming it with a bulldozer. Ascent is painted with DuPont Imron, 6282-red-orange, a very durable, exterior automotive paint, over a primer of DuPont 25-P. Liberman used only shades of red, black, or white paint on his monumental public sculptures, the favorite color being red-orange. About the Artist Alexander Liberman was born in Kiev, Russia, to Simon and Heneriette (Pascar) Liberman in 1912. His father was a government economist and expert in commercial lumber under the Czar and was retained in that capacity by Lenin for five years after the Revolution. Heneriette loved theatre, art, and music. In 1919, she established the first state theatre for children in Moscow. As a boy, Alexander often traveled with his parents throughout Russia in a private rail car. At different times, the Libermans lived in both Moscow and St. Petersburg, where his mother exposed Alexander to art museums, cathedrals, and the architecture of government buildings. After Lenin’s death, the family moved to Paris in 1924. By 1926, 12-year-old Alexander had met Chagall, Léger, Larionov, Gontcharova, and a Russian painter’s niece, Tatiana Iacovleff. Alexander traveled with his mother in France, Germany, Greece, and Italy. In Paris, he studied art, architecture, mathematics, and photography. Aside from his formal academic studies, Alexander was not only greatly impressed with the destruction he observed during the Revolution in Russia, but also with the classical architecture and ruins he saw in Greece and Rome. He also was very aware of the Russian fascination with chance, both controlled and uncontrolled. He became Art Director of the magazine VU in 1932 and then Managing Director. The family left Paris in 1940 for Spain and moved to New York City in 1941. In New York, he was hired by Vogue magazine, one of the Condé Nast Publications. Alexander Liberman American, born in Russia, 1912–1999 Ascent 1970 Painted steel, 16 x 20 x 25 ft. Museum purchase with the Russell Hill Rogers Fund for the Arts, 2005.1 About the Artist continued Awed by the scale of modern American infrastructure such as bridges, highways, airports, and factories, Liberman was amazed that ordinary Americans could obtain commercial construction materials. He married Tatiana (Iacovleff) du Plessix in 1942. (Tatiana’s daughter, Francine, by her first husband, Baron du Plessix, is today a well-known author.) The Liberman marriage, described by book reviewer Holly Bruback, was a symbiotic relationship between a man who needed a woman’s domination and a controlling woman who needed to exist in security and limelight. In 1943, Liberman became art director of Vogue. He returned to painting in 1945, and by any measure was very prolific. Beginning in 1948, Liberman made annual visits to Europe, renewing his fascination with the architecture and sculpture of Rome, especially the Campidoglio plaza. Guests at the Liberman Manhattan townhouse parties often included contemporary artists such as Chagall, Dalí, Duchamp, Frankenthaler, Motherwell, Noguchi, and Pollock. In 1962, Liberman became the editorial director of all Condé Nast publications. Around 1963, he began focusing his creative energies on sculpture while continuing to paint. His sculpture and paintings are in collections such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York’s Museum of Modern Art, the Tate Gallery in London, the Guggenheim Museum in New York, and the J. Paul Getty Museum. His monumental sculptures are installed in cities in America, Japan, Korea, Israel, and Europe. Throughout Alexander Liberman’s career, he was interested in engineering, space, velocity, thrust, and chance. He was successful in several fields of art, including filmmaking, writing, magazine editing and publishing, painting, printmaking, photography, and sculpting. Liberman died in November 1999. Quotes from the Artist There’s an old Russian saying that chance is noble–perhaps I was brought up with this feeling. Artists of the past were inspired by literature. Today we are fed by a scientific environment. We see airplanes, we see rockets. This inspires to a new scale. We see oil refineries, incredible things for our imagination. Strategies for Tours Primary Grades (ages 6-8) [Allow students to walk around all sides. Discuss two- and three-dimensional art.] Is this a sculpture or part of a building? What do you see? [Explain how the artist participated in its fabrication and the role that the element of chance played in the finished sculpture.] Upper Elementary Grades (ages 9-11) [Use questions and discussion above.] What does this sculpture remind you of? What is going on here? [Explore line, shape, color, space, and material in its composition. Compare Ascent to Asteriskos by Tony Smith, in terms of these art elements.] Middle School and High School (age 12-18) [Use discussion above. Summarize the artist’s background, education, and career.] How does the title, Ascent, relate to the composition of the sculpture? Adults [Use questions and discussion above for Middle and High School. ] Sources Worth Consulting Kazanjian, Dodie. Alex: The Life of Alexander Liberman. Knopf, 1993. Liberman, Alexander.

  • Untroubled Irving Penn Works from the Pinault
    Untroubled Irving Penn Works from the Pinault Collection 17 January - 28 April 2019 opening on January 16, 5 - 9 PM Curated by Matthieu Humery At Mina Image Centre In collaboration with the Pinault Collection Sponsored by: Banque Libano-Française On January 16, 2019 Mina Image centre will be launching its first exhibition “Untroubled” curated by Matthieu Humery and dedicated to one of the major photographers in the 20th century, Irving Penn, whose work will show for the first time in the Arab World. The exhibition will run till April 28, 2019. A press conference will be held at Mina Image Centre on Tuesday, January 15th at 11:00 a.m. The Curator of the exhibition Matthieu Humery and Mina's director Manal Khader will be available to answer all your questions. “Untroubled” draws from “Resonance”, an exhibition organized by the Pinault Collection at Palazzo Grassi in Venice in 2014, and includes 50 images combining platinum prints, gelatin silver prints, dye transfer prints. The show is not a retrospective and does not follow a chronological order, but aims to underline the development of styles, interests and techniques used by Irving Penn by focusing on the main themes tackled by the artist during his entire career: Small Trades, Corner Portraits, Still Life, Hands of Miles Davis, Icons, Decomposition, Vanities/ Memento Mori, Cranium Architecture, World Societies, thereby revealing the diversity in Irving Penn’s work, which is in itself an invaluable legacy to the world of photography. Penn subjects appear at first glance to be quite disparate: celebrities (Pablo Picasso, Alfred Hitchcock, Salvador Dali, Georgia O’Keeffe…), skulls, and cigarette butts… But to Penn, “It is all one thing”.

  • Wall Text for Irving Penn
    Irving Penn: Beyond Beauty Exhibition Wall Text Irving Penn (1917–2009) was one of the twentieth century’s most prolific and influential photographers of fashion and the famous. His pictures, a unique blend of classical elegance and formal innovation, were widely seen in print during his long career at Vogue magazine. His achievement, however, extends beyond conventional notions of depicting beauty or fame to include a radical reconsideration of how we understand fashion and art, both separately and in relation to each other. A courtly man whose polite demeanor masked an intense perfectionism, Penn adopted a workmanlike approach to making pictures, what his friend and Vogue art director Alexander Liberman called “Penn’s American instincts.” Schooled in painting and design, Penn later chose photography as his life’s work, scraping the paint off his early canvases so they could serve a more useful life as tablecloths or as backdrops for his photographs. But his commitment to making art remained in force throughout the seven decades of his active career. This exhibition, the first retrospective museum survey to be organized since the artist’s death, describes the full arc of Penn’s photography from his early, surrealist-influenced work to the modernist icons for which he is best known and the iconoclastic late work that simultaneously incorporates and renounces fashion. The prints were selected from The Irving Penn Foundation archives and are a gift from the Foundation to the Smithsonian American Art Museum and to the American people. Irving Penn: Beyond Beauty Wall Text Smithsonian American Art Museum 1 Antique Shop, Pine Street, Philadelphia 1938 gelatin silver print made 1990 Irving Penn studied drawing, painting, and graphic and industrial design at the Pennsylvania Museum School of Industrial Art (now the University of the Arts) in Philadelphia from 1934 to 1938.

  • ALEXANDER LIBERMAN After Image: Paintings and Sculpture from the 1950S Uptown: September 24-October 26, 2012
    ALEXANDER LIBERMAN After Image: Paintings and Sculpture from the 1950s Uptown: September 24-October 26, 2012 Mitchell-Innes & Nash is pleased to present Alexander Liberman: After Image, Paintings and Sculpture from the 1950s, on view in the Uptown gallery September 24 – October 26. This exhibition will focus on Liberman’s mid-century painting and pedestal sculpture, including several works that are being exhibited for the first time in decades. The 1950s are considered to be Liberman’s most significant period, as he continued to refine the signature hard-edged, geometric style that he had developed in the previous decade. With their industrial enamel and stainless steel, Liberman’s hard-edge circle paintings and sculptures prefigured Minimalism in many ways, created as they were without emphasis on expression or the artist’s hand. The work looked ahead to a time when machine-made art was routine. Liberman was keenly interested in exploring negation of traditional composition and the subject, eschewing any reference to images in his painting. His own term for this set of ideas was “after image,” a term referring to both non-objective painting as well as the optical effects of looking at his paintings. Liberman sought to make art that was clear, legible and direct. Alexander Liberman (1912-1999) was born in Russia and lived in London and Paris before emigrating to New York in 1941. While in Paris, Liberman worked at Vu magazine with photographers including Andre Kertesz and Robert Capa. In New York, Liberman was the highly influential art director for Vogue, and later held the position of editorial director for all of Condé Nast publications for several decades.
