Hans Hofmann (German-American Painter, 1880-1966)
237 East Palace Avenue Santa Fe, NM 87501 800 879-8898 505 989-9888 505 989-9889 Fax [email protected] Hans Hofmann (German-American Painter, 1880-1966) Hans Hofmann is one of the most important figures of postwar American art. Celebrated for his exuBerant, color-filled canvases, and renowned as an influential teacher for generations of artists— first in his native Germany, then in New York and Provincetown—Hofmann played a pivotal role in the development of ABstract Expressionism. As a teacher he Brought to America direct knowledge of the work of a celebrated group of European modernists (prior to World War I he had lived and studied in Paris) and developed his own philosophy of art, which he expressed in essays which are among the most engaging discussions of painting in the twentieth century, including "The Color ProBlem in Pure Painting—Its Creative Origin." Hofmann taught art for over four decades; his impressive list of students includes Helen Frankenthaler, Red Grooms, Alfred Jensen, Wolf Kahn, Lee Krasner, Louise Nevelson and Frank Stella. As an artist Hofmann tirelessly explored pictorial structure, spatial tensions and color relationships. In his earliest portraits done just years into the twentieth century, his interior scenes of the 1940s and his signature canvases of the late 1950s and the early 1960s, Hofmann brought to his paintings what art historian Karen Wilkin has descriBed as a "range from loose accumulations of Brushy strokes…to crisply tailored arrangements of rectangles…But that somehow seems less significant than their uniform intensity, their common pounding energy and their consistent physicality." Hofmann was Born Johann Georg Hofmann in WeissenBerg, in the Bavarian state of Germany in 1880 and raised and educated in Munich. -

In collaboration with Giuliano Briganti she curated the exhibition Pittura Metafisica (Palazzo Grassi, Venice 1979) and edited the catalogue, while with Maurizio Calvesi she edited the Catalogue Raisonné of Umberto Boccioni’s works (1983). She curated with Bill Lieberman the Boccioni retrospective at the Metropolitan Museum of New York in 1988 and has since been involved in many international exhibitions. She organised Richard Serra’s show at the Trajan’s Markets (Rome 1999), planned the Gary Hill show at the Coliseum (Rome 2005) and was one of the three committee members of the Futurism centenary exhibition (Pompidou Paris, Scuderie del Quirinale Rome and Tate Modern London) celebrating in the same year (2009) with Futurism 100: Illuminations. Avant-gardes Compared. Italy-Germany-Russia the anniversary at MART in Rovereto. In 2015 she focused on Matisse’s fascination for decorative arts (Arabesque, Scuderie del Quirinale Rome) and at the end of 2017 a show organized at La Galleria Nazionale in Rome anticipated the fifty years of the 1968 “revolution”. Full professor of Modern and Contemporary Art History at the University of Aquila, she lives in Rome.

Introduction*
Introduction* CLAIRE GILMAN If Francesco Vezzoli’s recent star-studded Pirandello extravaganza at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and the Senso Unico exhibition that ran con- currently at P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center are any indication, contemporary Italian art has finally arrived.1 It is ironic if not entirely surprising, however, that this moment occurs at a time when the most prominent trend in Italian art reflects no discernible concern for things Italian. Rather, the media-obsessed antics of Vezzoli or Vanessa Beecroft (featured alongside Vezzoli in Senso Unico) are better understood as exemplifying the precise eradication of national and cultural boundaries that is characteristic of today’s global media culture. Perhaps it is all the more fitting, then, that this issue of October returns to a rather different moment in Italian art history, one in which the key practition- ers acknowledged the invasion of consumer society while nonetheless striving to keep their distance; and in which artists responded to specific national condi- tions rooted in real historical imperatives. The purpose of this issue is twofold: first, to give focused scholarly attention to an area of post–World War II art history that has gained increasing curatorial exposure but still receives inadequate academic consideration. Second, in doing so, it aims to dismantle some of the misconceptions about the period, which is tra- ditionally divided into two distinct moments: the assault on painting of the 1950s and early ’60s by the triumverate Alberto Burri, Lucio Fontana, and Piero Manzoni, followed by Arte Povera’s retreat into natural materials and processes. -

Ulteriors Curated by Dennis Kardon
Ulteriors Curated by Dennis Kardon When I look at art, I follow my gaze. What is the Dog and Flag is more absurdly erotic. Nathalie is first thing I see? Where do I go from there and wearing a navy pea coat sitting on a personified, why? Noticing the play of my own attention has pale flesh-colored wiener squirting ketchup and become my principle preoccupation when painting mustard on its head in front of an American flag. and looking at art. Artists deliberately orchestrate But note the bruise marring one of Nathalie’s attention through particular decisions they make, alabaster naked legs. Chin resting on fist, wearing a and these decisions reflect motivations interior to crystal necklace, red hair flowing like the flag what is simply depicted. Ulteriors, while similar to stripes, coat buttons echoing flag stars, Nathalie interiors, is an attempt to explore the way this play (years later, now Nathan) dangles their left hand of attention constructs meaning. All the works in provocatively between their parted legs. It isn’t Ulteriors are on a spectrum from total abstraction simply that Ethridge blurs the lines between art, to photographic representation.

February 16, 2008 Luhring Augustine Is Pleased to Present Red Sky, A
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Red Sky January 12 – February 16, 2008 Luhring Augustine is pleased to present Red Sky, a group exhibition featuring painting, sculpture and installation by eight key artists associated with the Arte Povera movement. The exhibition includes work by Alighiero e Boetti, Pier Paolo Calzolari, Luciano Fabro, Jannis Kounellis, Mario Merz, Giulio Paolini, Michelangelo Pistoletto and Gilberto Zorio. The term arte povera translates to poor art, but the movement as a whole encompassed far more than the use of humble materials. During the sixties and seventies, several young artists based in Italy strove to create work in a spirit of experimentation and openness. The loosely defined movement was coined Arte Povera by the prominent art critic and curator Germano Celant in 1967. In response to art historical tradition and the slick commercialism of the day, these artists turned instead to organic and industrial materials and employed unconventional methods of art- making. Recurrent themes include metamorphosis, alchemy, entropy and relational aesthetics resulting in works which emphasize the metaphysical, the symbolic and the poetic. Alighiero e Boetti’s work is often defined by systematic mark-making reflecting his interest in order and logic. For example, uno2due3tre4quattroecc is rendered on graph paper and the multiplication of black squares appears to follow a precise mathematical formula. The works of Gilberto Zorio include his trademark motifs of star and javelin, both of which are archetypal symbols suggestive of purity, energy and movement. Pier Paolo Calzolari’s Untitled installation involves a metallic grid frozen over time and is characteristic of Calzolari’s use of machinery, neon and freezing elements to explore the notion of transformation.
