  • Irving Sandler
    FROM THE ARCHIVES: HANS HOFMANN: THE PEDAGOGICAL MASTER By Irving Sandler May 30, 1973 Irving Sandler died on June 2, 2018 at the age of 92. A frequent contributor to A.i.A., Sandler was best known for chronicling the rise and the aftermath of Abstract Expressionism. One of his most significant articles for A.i.A., the impact of Hans Hofmann, who taught such artists as Helen Frankenthaler and Allan Kaprow, thereby influencing not only second- and third-generation Ab Ex painters but other developments in American art after 1945. Sandler highlights Hofmann’s interest in the deep traditions of European art, and his belief that the best abstract painting continues its manner of modeling the world. “It was in this cubic quality, this illusion of mass and space, that the man-centered humanist tradition—or what could be saved of it—was perpetuated,” Sandler wrote, summarizing a central tenet of Hofmann’s teachings. The full essay, from our May/June 1973 issue, is presented below. In June we re-published Sandler’s essay “The New Cool-Art,” on the rise of Minimalism. —Eds. As both a painter and a teacher Hans Hofmann played a germinal part in the development of advanced American art for more than thirty years. This article will deal only with his pedagogical role—a topic chosen with some trepidation, for to treat an artist as a teacher is often thought to demean his stature as an artist. The repute of Hofmann’s painting has suffered in the past because of this bias, but no longer, since he is now firmly and deservedly established as a pathfinding master of Abstract Expressionism.

  • Alberto Giacometti, Herbert Matter, Matthew Monahan, Jonathan Silver
    Alberto Giacometti, Herbert Matter, Matthew Monahan, Jonathan Silver Nicole Klagsbrun is pleased to present an exhibition featuring Alberto Giacometti (1901–66), Herbert Matter (1907–84), Jonathan Silver (1937–92), and Matthew Monahan (1972–), who together share a clear set of existential interests in the human figure, ambiguity, and visual play. On view are photographs from Matter’s early-1960s black-and-white series documenting Giacometti’s celebrated, exceedingly tall and thin statues. After 1945, Giacometti ceased producing small experimental figures and began to focus on over-lifesize works. The surfaces of these sculptures are fractured and rough, never smooth like a Rodin. By 1947, three main themes had emerged in Giacometti’s art: the walking man, the standing woman, and the bust or head—which are all present in these haunting images. Matter and Giacometti became fast friends after meeting in 1950, when Pierre Matisse commissioned Matter to document Giacometti’s work in exhibition at Matisse’s gallery in New York. In a letter to Matter from 1961, Giacometti wrote: I think about [the photographs] every day and now I am impatient to tell you how elated and happy I have been to see the whole series of marvelous photographs. I could not stop looking at them, picking them up one by one and starting all over again, remarking at the great joy they have given me. They are by far the most beautiful photographs that have been made of my things, and, most important, at the same time they have a reality in themselves; each one is a creation in itself, one more beautiful than the other.1 A designer and a photographer, Matter left his position at Knoll to concentrate on publishing a book of these photographs.

  • The Clark Art Institute
    CLARK ART INSTITUTE ANNOUNCES REVISED PLANS FOR SUMMER 2020 SEASON (Thursday, April 30, 2020) – The Clark Art Institute today announced a revised program for its summer 2020 season, reflecting changes necessitated by its current closure due to the global health crisis and the logistical challenges related to international travel and shipping restrictions. “At a time when our foremost priority is the health and well-being of all people, concerns over exhibition schedules are insignificant in the face of the human crisis we are confronting,” said Olivier Meslay, Hardymon Director of the Clark. “Like museums around the world, our plans and schedules are not immune to the disruptions caused by the global pandemic, and so, it was inevitable that we would need to reconsider our summer season. Although we don’t yet know when we will be able to reopen our doors to welcome visitors back to the Clark, we look forward to providing a lively mix of special exhibitions that will showcase many exciting concepts and artists and, of course, to sharing our permanent collection with our visitors.” Two exhibitions previously announced for summer 2020 presentations at the Clark have been rescheduled for summer 2021. Claude and François- Xavier Lalanne: Nature Transformed will now be on view at the Clark from May 8 to October 31, 2021. Nikolai Astrup: Visions of Norway will open at the Clark on June 19, 2021, for a three-month presentation, closing on September 19, 2021. “Although we are deeply disappointed that we will have to wait another year to bring these remarkable exhibitions to the Clark, we remain incredibly enthusiastic about both of these shows and are delighted that we will be able to present them in summer 2021.” Meslay said.
