  • Calder and Sound
    Gryphon Rue Rower-Upjohn Calderand Sound Herbert Matter, Alexander Calder, Tentacles (cf. Works section, fig. 50), 1947 “Noise is another whole dimension.” Alexander Calder 1 A mobile carves its habitat. Alternately seductive, stealthy, ostentatious, it dilates and retracts, eternally redefining space. A noise-mobile produces harmonic wakes – metallic collisions punctuating visual rhythms. 2 For Alexander Calder, silence is not merely the absence of sound – silence gen- erates anticipation, a bedrock feature of musical experience. The cessation of sound suggests the outline of a melody. 3 A new narrative of Calder’s relationship to sound is essential to a rigorous portrayal and a greater comprehension of his genius. In the scope of Calder’s immense œuvre (thousands of sculptures, more than 22,000 documented works in all media), I have identified nearly four dozen intentionally sound-producing mobiles. 4 Calder’s first employment of sound can be traced to the late 1920s with Cirque Calder (1926–31), an event rife with extemporised noises, bells, harmonicas and cymbals. 5 His incorporation of gongs into his sculpture followed, beginning in the early 1930s and continuing through the mid-1970s. Nowadays preservation and monetary value mandate that exhibitions of Calder’s work be in static, controlled environments. Without a histor- ical imagination, it is easy to disregard the sound component as a mere appendage to the striking visual mien of mobiles. As an additional obstacle, our contemporary consciousness is clogged with bric-a-brac associations, such as wind chimes and baby crib bibelots. As if sequestered from this trail of mainstream bastardi- sations, the element of sound in certain works remains ulterior.

  • Private Sales
    2 Private Sales n recent years, the commercial fragility of what were perceived to be preeminent New York art galleries was laid bare in newspaper head- lines and lawsuits that highlighted the financial woes of the hap- less collectors who consigned art to be sold, and the art purchasers Iwho acquired more (or less) than they bargained for. That fragility renders art transactions commercially unique when it is combined with the in- trinsic properties of fine art. The artwork, for one thing, is often singular and ir- replaceable. Moreover, its value, which largely depends on the artist’s reputation at the time of the sale, may fluctuate extensively because an artist’s reputation is largely subject to public whim. And artwork is frequently purchased on impulse by a shockingly uninformed buyer: The buyer often turns a blind eye to securing a written purchase contract (let alone to having the contract reviewed by legal counsel), neglects to have the property physically inspected or professionally ap- praised, fails to do a title search, and, if the work is a fine-art multiple, makes no inquiry about the technique of production. Defects abound in artwork as frequently as in other property. Accordingly, the art buyer should observe the same precautions ordinarily used by the prudent buyer in other commercial transactions of like value. Those precautions are ad- dressed at length throughout the three main sections of this chapter: Sales by Dealers, Sales by Collectors, and Secured Transactions. SALES BY DEALERS Whether the dealer is a private dealer, a single commercial gallery, or a gallery with numerous branches or franchised outlets, the dealer’s art sales are governed by principles of contract and tort law, by federal and state penal statutes, and in certain jurisdictions by specific legislation regulating sales of art.

  • Lack of Irony
    1 L a c k o f i r o n y Note: you are reading an excerpt from: James Elkins, “Failure in Twentieth-Century Painting” (unpublished MS) Revised 9.2001 This page was originally posted on: www.jameselkins.com Send all comments to: [email protected] Part Two – 2 – 3: Lack of irony I cannot tell you who told me or in what footnote it sat hidden. This and other disjecta membra, the abused here drawn together with pain for their further dis- memberment, I offer to the presiding judge of our art, self-pleasured Ironia. — Geoffrey Hill1 There are only a few times I have laughed out loud in an art gallery. When I saw Hofbauer’s Poutnik (Pilgrim, 1905) in the Veletriní Palác, Prague, I took in the rounded grassy hillside topped by a prehistoric dolmen, and I noticed the little fire burning in its passageway. I saw the bowed figure in the purple cape walking slowly up toward the dolmen. He looked intent on his druidical mysteries. That would have been enough, but then I focused on what was behind just behind him: a black panther, following along like an overfed housecat. That is when I laughed—it was just too much. Hofbauer (1869-1944) was the same generation as Frantisek Kupka (1871- 1951), and the two of them shared a humorlessness that has vanished from more recent Czech painting: but that fact doesn’t help me see druids (or religion, or painting) as Hofbauer did. I also laughed (though not so loudly) at the Bulgarian painter Boris Georgiev (1888-1962), who painted Eternal Road (1925, National Museum of Art, Sofia), where a semi-nude hero rests, adopting Hippolyte Flandrin’s famous pose, on a clifftop in an exotic arctic panorama that looks like a Fredrick Church composition painted by Puvis de Chavannes.

  • ALEXANDER ARCHIPENKO: the PARISIAN YEARS, Will Be on View at the Museum of Modern
    (^<f FOR RELEASE: The Museum of Modern Art Tuesday, July 21, 1970 '1 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart PRESS PREVIEW: Monday, July 20, 1970 11 a. m. - 4 p. m. ALEXANDER ARCHIPENKO: THE PARISIAN YEARS, will be on view at The Museum of Modern Art from July 21 through October 18, 1970. The exhibition, composed of 33 works, surveys the late artist's sculpture, reliefs, drawings and prints done between 1908 and 1921, the years in which he lived in Paris. William S. Lieberman, Director of the Museum's Department of Painting and Sculpture, notes, "As a sculptor, Archipenko explored spatial relationships and the movement of forms. He was also particularly interested in the uses of color in sculpture. No matter how abstract his analysis, his inspiration derived from nature. Throughout his life, he remained a solitary figure. Although an innovator, he always remained close to the Cubist tradition as it was established in France during the years of his sojourn there." In 1908, when he was 21, Archipenko left his native Russia for France, where he remained until 1921 when he moved to Berlin. Two years later he settled in the United States. He died in New York in 1964. "By 1913," comments Mr. Lieberman, "Archipenko had found the direction of his personal style, and in the same year he exhibited in the famous Armory Show in New York. The significance of his work during his heroic years in France can be clearly revealed only by comparison with the contemporaneous and Cubist sculpture of Ra3nnond Duchamp-Villon, Henri Laurens, Jacques Lipchitz, and Pablo Picasso." The illustrated checklist* that accompanies the exhibition contains an essay by the critic, Katharine Kuh, who comments that as early as 1912, Archipenko combined wood, glass, mirror, metal, canvas, and wire to manipulate light and exploit (more) *ARCHIPENK0: THE PARISIAN YEARS.
