The Museum of Modern Art for Immediate Release July 1993
The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release July 1993 A PRINT PROJECT BY CHUCK CLOSE July 24 - September 28, 1993 An exhibition presenting American artist Chuck Close's most recent print project, Alex/Reduction Block, opens at The Museum of Modern Art on July 24, 1993. Organized by Andrea Feldman, curatorial assistant, Department of Prints and Illustrated Books, A PRINT PROJECT BY CHUCK CLOSE comprises fifteen large- scale screenprints that depict Close's friend and fellow artist Alex Katz. The screenprints replicate all stages of what was originally a reduction linoleum-cut print. The exhibition, on view through September 28, examines the complex process of printmaking and offers an in-depth view of Close's artistic conception. The reduction linoleum-cut technique requires the artist to use a single block for the entire printing process, in contrast to the conventional method of cutting separate blocks for each color in the print. Close became intrigued by the process after studying prints made by Picasso in the late 1950s. When Close anticipated problems with the paper he had chosen for his reduction linoleum-cut project, he printed a set of the states of the work on mylar, which he later used as templates for the screenprints on view in the exhibition. Ms. Feldman states, "Over the two year period that it took to complete this impressive project, Close ran into many technical problems that he transformed into artistic challenges. Without a flaw, Close maneuvered through the obstacle course that the project presented and created an image of enormous power and intensity. -

Alex Katz on 10 Artists Who Inspire Him
Search by artist, gallery, etc. Art Alex Katz on 10 Artists Who Inspire Him Alex Katz Nov 1, 2018 2:30 pm Portrait of Alex Katz. Photo by Ander Gillenea/AFP/Getty Images. “A lot of art books are very tiresome to most people,” admitted Alex Katz who, at 91 years young, is one of our most prominent living painters. ere’s nothing tiresome about Looking At Art With Alex Katz, a new volume in which the artist shares relatable, off-the-cuff impressions of dozens of his favorite artists, poets, and creatives, from Fra Angelico to Frank Lloyd Wright. “Everyone gets art on their own level,” he said in a recent interview with Artsy. “If you don’t know a lot about art history and you look at a picture, you’re not seeing the same picture that someone who knows something about art history sees. But that doesn’t mean you receive less from the picture. Art is very multifaceted that way.” Below, we share excerpts from the book that highlight nine eclectic artists who have amazed and inspired Katz over the years.

KS3-KS5 Summer Season 19 May – 23 September 2012
Teacher Resource Notes – KS3-KS5 Summer Season 19 May – 23 September 2012 Alex Katz: Give Me Tomorrow Alex Katz On The Tate Collection 1928: A Cornish Encounter These notes are designed to support KS3-5 teachers in engaging students as they explore the art work. As well as factual information they provide starting points for discussion, ideas for simple practical activities and suggestions for extended work that could stem from a gallery visit. To book a gallery visit for your group call 01736 796226 or email [email protected]. Season Overview This season Tate St Ives is showing paintings and collages by Alex Katz, plus an eclectic display of works which Katz has chosen from the Tate Collection in Lower Gallery 2. In the Studio there is a one-room archival display 1928: A Cornish Encounter, which documents this important year in the history of St Ives art. The display of Katz's work is a selected survey from the mid 1950s to 2011. Alex Katz is 85 and had his first solo show in New York in 1954. His paintings at Tate St Ives explore themes including family portraits, friends and social relationships, style and the American Dream, flowers, seascapes and beach life. Katz's process involves making small studies from life, which he scales up using the traditional charcoal cartoon and pin- hole 'pouncing' method, then paints the final large scale work in one go, working wet on wet. Katz's paintings can be regarded as an antithesis to his contemporary American Abstract Expressionists; Katz chose to represent the cultural context of New York style, fashion and glamour. -
Exhibition Explores the Inverse of the Landscape in My Room: Artists Paint the Interior 1950-Now Opens May 18, 2018
Exhibition Explores the Inverse of the Landscape In My Room: Artists Paint the Interior 1950-Now opens May 18, 2018 CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – The Fralin Museum of Art at the University of Virginia presents In My Room: Artists Paint the Interior 1950-Now, May 18-Sept. 30, 2018. The exhibition looks at the inverse of the landscape: the interior. Landscape painting, a common genre in western painting, is understood as a window onto the world thanks to artist and theorist Leon Battista Alberti and his ideas about the picture plane known as Alberti’s Window. After the Industrial Revolution, however, modern art erupted with the interior. Notably, modern artists began depicting windows into other rooms instead of painting views of the outside world. “The interior space has an ability to prompt the viewer to ask questions and to view a space with new perspective,” said Matthew McLendon, director and chief curator of the Fralin Museum of Art. “In an untitled work by Alex Katz, for example, a bed in disarray invites the questions whether someone has left in a rush, to where and why? Interior with Doorway by Richard Diebenkorn uses light and shadow in juxtaposition creating a sculptural feel to everyday objects.” Artists continued to paint indoor spaces throughout the 20th century for a variety of psychological, interpersonal and biographical reasons. Architecture, design and the still-life inform the paintings in this exhibition, as does the persistent theme of the artist’s studio. The exhibition raises myriad questions upon which to reflect and will address how representations of interior spaces have changed and evolved over time. -

Oral history interview with Raphael Soyer, 1981 May 13-June 1 Funding for the digital preservation of this interview was provided by a grant from the Save America's Treasures Program of the National Park Service. Funding for this interview was provided by the Wyeth Endowment for American Art. Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a tape-recorded interview with Raphael Soyer on May 13, 1981. The interview was conducted by Milton Brown for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. Interview Tape 1, side A MILTON BROWN: This is an interview with Raphael Soyer with Milton Brown interviewing. Raphael, we’ve known each other for a very long time, and over the years you have written a great deal about your life, and I know you’ve given many interviews. I’m doing this especially because the Archives wants a kind of update. It likes to have important American artists interviewed at intervals, so that as time goes by we keep talking to America’s famous artists over the years. I don’t know that we’ll dig anything new out of your past, but let’s begin at the beginning. See if we can skim over the early years abroad and coming here in general. I’d just like you to reminisce about your early years, your birth, and how you came here. RAPHAEL SOYER: Well, of course I was born in Russia, in the Czarist Russia, and I came here in 1912 when I was twelve years old. -
Enigmatic Realist
Essay from CITY: A Journal of the City Colleges of Chicago, 1986 Arthur Lerner: Enigmatic Realist Devonna Pieszak Arthur Lerner's emergence as an artist was rooted in that era of modern art which still viewed art as a consequence of personal angst, when life rather than artifice was the prime motivator. That is, the artist's work evolved primarily from his existential position rather than from his generating an art obJect that referred to other art obJects or gained its principal meaning by such a reference, such as Rauschenberg making art by erasing a de Kooning drawing. With figurative art on the decline in New York during the late fifties and abstract expressionism the favorite style of the New York critics, Lerner was fortunate at the beginning of his career to be situated in the localized Chicago art environment, which lent sympathy to his exploration of art as self-definition and was tolerant of his concern with the figurative. The city, which has long had a commitment to subJective as well as eccentric content in art, nurtured his Kafkaesque perceptions, without defining them aesthetically. Upon graduation from high school, Arthur Lerner studied at the School of the Art Institute with the artists Leon Golub and Seymour Rosofsky, who became founding members of the "Monster Roster." Although he was younger than many of his fellow students, who were returning veterans, his initial interest in fantasy, mythology and the psychological was typical of many Chicago artists. His art was and is in part a reflection of Chicago attitudes, which Franz Schultz has described as personal, introverted, obsessive and dwelling on privacy of feeling. -
