The Moon Women Cuts the Circle (1943) Blue Moby Dick (1943) Stenographic Figure (1942) In 1942, Pollock met Lee Krasner, a Jewish contemporary artist, which he married in October 1945 They bought a farmhouse in the Springs area of East Hampton, Long Island Pollock was energized by his new surroundings and wife In 1946, he converted the barn to a private studio, where he develop his “Drip Technique” (where the paint literally flowed off of his tools and onto the canvases) that he typically placed on the floor. He used hardened brushes, sticks and turkey basters to drip paint onto canvases The “dripping” process permitted Pollock to record the force and scope of his gestures in trajectories of paint The results were huge areas covered with complex and dynamic linear patterns that fuse image and form and engulf the vision of the spectator in their scale and intricacy Alchemy (1947) “Action Painting” Convergence, 1952 Unformed Figure, 1953 Fall of Fathom (1947) Pollock's most famous paintings were made during this "drip period" between 1947 and 1950 He became wildly popular after being featured in Life magazine In 1949, Pollock's show at the Betty Parsons Gallery sold out and he became the best-paid avant- garde (new, unusual or experimental ideas) painter in America He stopped naming his paintings and just numbered them so that people would stop looking for literal meaning (stop trying to see a dog, or a person, etc.) Number 8 (1949) Fame was not good for Pollock who became dismissive Pollock's art also became darker in color. He abandoned the "drip" method, and began painting in black and white which proved unsuccessful. Pollock's mother came to help with Pollock’s health. He began to paint again. He completed his masterpiece, "The Deep," during this period. Jackson Pollock died on August 11, 1956 in a car accident, he was 44 years old In November 2006, one of his paintings sold for $140 million dollars, making it the world’s most expensive painting Let’s Review! 1) What type of images did Pollock start out painting early in his Western Landscapes career? from his youth 2) Who did Pollock study under when he moved to New York? Thomas Bento 3) What style are Pollock’s paintings? Abstract Expressionism 4) What unique technique was Pollock first to use in paintings? Drip Technique So people would stop looking 5) Why did Pollock stop naming his paintings (using only numbers)? for literal meaning & feel his work instead Project Idea Bring in a few boxes from home – have the children lay printer paper on the bottom of the box, give them poster paint on paint brushes and have them splatter the paint onto the page with less mess. Or have marbles in the box, squirt the paint on the page and have the children roll the marbles around on the page, while keeping the paper in the box. Claude Monet (1840-1926) Painter Oscar Claude Monet Claude Monet was born on November 14, 1840 in Paris, France. When he was 5, his family moved to Le Havre in Normandy France. His family wanted him to go into the family grocery business, but he knew he wanted to be an artist. At an early age, Monet developed a love of drawing. In 1851, he entered art school. He filled his schoolbooks with sketches of people, including caricatures of his teachers which he sold for 10 to 20 francs. Caricatures In Normandy he met artist Eugene Boudin, a local landscape artist, who taught Monet to use oil paints and to paint “en plein air” (outdoors) which would become the cornerstone of Monet’s work. When Monet visited the Louvre in Paris, he saw other art students copying the paintings of the masters. Monet sat at the window and painted what he saw outside. His painting Camille (or woman in the green dress) brought him recognition. It was the first of many paintings of the woman who would become his wife. On the Bank of the Seine, Bennecourt (1868) (the woman is Camille) From 1861 to 1862, Monet served in the military, but he was discharged for health reasons Returning to Paris, Monet studied with Charles Gleyre, The Bodmer Oak (1865) Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley and Frederic Bazille Johann Barthold Jongkind, a landscape painter, proved to be an important influence to the young artist Garden at Sainte (1969) Monet won acceptance to the Salon of 1865, an annual juried art show in Paris. Though Monet's works received some critical praise, he still struggled financially. The following year, Monet was selected again - showcasing a portrait of his future wife, Camille Doncieux Doncieux served as a muse (someone who provides inspiration) for him, sitting for numerous paintings during her lifetime Women in Green (1866) The couple experienced great hardship around the birth of their first son, Jean, in 1867. Monet and Camille married in June 1870, and following the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War, the couple fled with their son to London, England. There, Monet met Paul Durand-Ruel, who became his first art dealer. Camille Monet on a Garden Bench (1870) Returning to France after the war, in 1872, he banded together with several other artists to form the Société Anonyme des Artistes, Peintres, Sculpteurs, Graveurs, to exhibit their works together The society's April 1874 exhibition proved to be revolutionary. One of Monet's most noted works in the show (see left) depicted Le Havre's harbor in a morning fog. Impression, Sunrise (1872) Critics used the title to name the distinct group of artists "Impressionists," saying that their work seemed more like sketches than finished paintings The Artist’s House at Argenteuil (1873) Woman with a Parasol (1875) (the artist’s wife and son) Poppy Field (1875) While Impressionism was meant to be derogatory, the term seemed fitting. Monet sought to capture the essence of the natural world using strong colors and bold, short brushstrokes. He and his contemporaries were turning away from the blended colors and evenness of classical art. Port Le Havre (1874) Monet also brought elements of industry into his landscapes, moving the form forward After Camille's death in 1878, Monet painted a grim set of paintings known as the Ice Drift series. Monet gained financial and critical success during the late 1880s and 1890s, and started the serial paintings for which he would become well-known In Giverny, the water lilies found in the pond had a particular appeal for him, and he painted several series of them throughout the rest of his life In 1918, Monet would donate 12 of his waterlily paintings to the nation of France to celebrate the Armistice Bridge over a pond of water lilies (1899) Water Lilies (1906) Water Lilies Pink (1916) Water Lilies (1920) Monet remarried in 1892 to Alice Hoschede He spent much of the rest of his life painting in and around their property in Giverny, France Haystacks, sunset (1890-91) Monet liked to paint “controlled nature” He invested much time and money into his property and gardens, creating specific scenes for himself to paint over and over again As he became more successful, he hired a crew of seven gardeners The Garden in Flower (1900) Weeping Willows (1918-19) During World War I, Monet painted a series of Weeping Willow trees as a tribute to the French soldiers who had fallen at battle. Monet’s second wife died in 1911, and his older son, Jean, died in 1914. Monet developed cataracts, which are a film that forms over the eye, making it hard to see clearly. He would have surgery twice to try to clear his vision. Claude Monet died on December 5, 1926 at the age of 86. He is buried in Giverny.

    January 2020 The Studiowith ART HIST RY KIDS Pop Art with Roy Lichtenstein Observe | Discuss | Discover | Create | Connect Pop Art with The Studiowith Roy Lichtenstein ART HIST RY KIDS INTRODUCTION The art of the ordinary Roy Lichtenstein’s successful art career was based on one simple idea – creating fine art inspired by images we see everyday. His art captures the ordinary things that surround us – advertisements, comic books, the painting of other famous artists like Picasso, Mondrian, Matisse, and Monet, and even Micky Mouse cartoons. He took these ideas and recreated them on a larger than life scale. Most of his can- vases are grand and oversized – they are truly bold and impactful when seen in person! He also infused little bits of commentary in his art, and he became known for his skillful use of parody. You don’t need to study every piece of art that’s included in this guide. Feel free to choose just a few that are most interesting to your kids. A range of subject matter is included here, but if some of these paintings are too intense for your kids– just skip them for now, and come back to them when they are older!

It's very nice of you. The first question that I'd like to ask you is, how did you and Roy meet, the first time? DL: The first time we met, I was working at a gallery, the Bianchini Gallery. That was around the corner from the Castelli Gallery at 4 East 77th Street. We were on 78th Street, and, in fact, that's the gallery that Rosa Esmond has now, Ubu Gallery [16 East 78th Street]. AG: Oh, is that her gallery? DL: Yes. We were doing a show called The Great American Supermarket, based on the fact that so much of the work in the early '60s imitated commercial products and ads, so we thought to set the exhibition up. AG: That's great. And this was a contemporary gallery? DL: Yes. When I started working there, Paul Bianchini owned it, and he did mostly drawing shows of modern masters, but, say, French and Europeans and mostly pre-war, but he would have had Dubuffet and Giacometti. AG: And he was a friend of Leo's [Castelli]. MoMA Archives Oral History: D. Lichtenstein page 1 of 29 DL: Well, he ran this gallery. He knew Leo, and of course it was very exciting. We thought Leo's gallery was the most exciting place.

Blog Useful links Wikipedia Artnet.com For more information and pricing, please use the Contact form. Roy Fox Lichtenstein (pronounced /ˈlɪktənˌstaɪn/; October 27, 1923 – September 29, 1997) was an American pop artist. During the 1960s, along with Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns, and James Rosenquist among others, he became a leading figure in the new art movement. His work defined the premise of pop art through parody.[2] Inspired by the comic strip, Lichtenstein produced precise compositions that documented while they parodied, often in a tongue-in-cheek manner. His work was influenced by popular advertising and the comic book style. He described pop art as "not 'American' painting but actually industrial painting".[3] His paintings were exhibited at the Leo Castelli Gallery in New York City. Whaam! and Drowning Girl are generally regarded as Lichtenstein's most famous works,[4][5][6] with Oh, Jeff...I Love You, Too...But... arguably third.[7] Drowning Girl, Whaam! and Look Mickey are regarded as his most influential works.[8] His most expensive piece is Masterpiece, which was sold for $165 million in January 2017.[9] Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_Lichtenstein E: [email protected].

Briggs (1970, 1995), Briggs and Spicer (1986), Briggs and Burke (2002) provide illuminating, general accounts of how socio-political concerns have interacted with economic interests in this industry. Descriptive accounts from industry insiders (Potter 1989,1990; Sendall 1982,1983) and others (Bonner & Aston 1998) richly supplement these academic business histories.

    THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART ORAL HISTORY PROGRAM INTERVIEW WITH: KIRK VARNEDOE (KV) INTERVIEWER: SHARON ZANE (SZ) LOCATION: THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART DATE: 28 NOVEMBER 2001 BEGIN TAPE 1, SIDE 1 SZ: I'll start the way I always do, and ask you to tell me where and when you were born, and something about your family background. KV: I was born in Savannah, Georgia, January 18, 1946. I was the youngest of four children, by a good stretch. My two brothers and my sister were six, seven and eight years older than I was, so I was the baby of the family, by a long shot. My parents had both grown up, more or less, in Savannah, although my father wasn't born there. He was an investment banker who had started his own firm in the depths of the Depression, which was an odd thing to do, but he still, when I was growing up, was running it with a partner, as a private investment firm. SZ: Did you say he was not from Savannah? KV: He was born in Tampa, actually. SZ: Well, he was southern, anyway. KV: Yes, he was southern. Definitely. Southern, and with strong Scottish ties; very proud of his Scottish heritage. He was president of the St. Andrew's Society. I grew up with small kilts, piping in front of the haggis -- that sort of thing. MoMA Archives Oral History: K. Varnedoe page 1 of 180 SZ: Golf? KV: He was a very big golfer.

The exhibit included a number of modestly-sized portrait-tapestries; a representative work is included in this exhibition. Moufarrege did not follow pre-made plans when embroidering, as one would with a standard embroidery kit. His approach, which he called “experimental weaving,” is improvisational: as images developed, he elaborated on them stitch by stitch. A similar energy enlivens a nearby drawing in marker on paper. For his tapestries, Moufarrege inventively used a combination of silk, cotton, and wool threads in varying colors to create vibrant textures, movement, and tonal shifts. In a 1973 interview with Moufarrege in the magazine Le Beyrouthin on the occasion of his inaugural show, the noted Lebanese artist Etel Adnan remarked that “this is how traditional craftsmanship becomes a personal art full of promise.” Unless otherwise noted, all works appear courtesy Nabil Moufarrej and Gulnar “Nouna” Mufarrij, Shreveport, Louisiana.
