  • CUBISM and ABSTRACTION Background
    015_Cubism_Abstraction.doc READINGS: CUBISM AND ABSTRACTION Background: Apollinaire, On Painting Apollinaire, Various Poems Background: Magdalena Dabrowski, "Kandinsky: Compositions" Kandinsky, Concerning the Spiritual in Art Background: Serial Music Background: Eugen Weber, CUBISM, Movements, Currents, Trends, p. 254. As part of the great campaign to break through to reality and express essentials, Paul Cezanne had developed a technique of painting in almost geometrical terms and concluded that the painter "must see in nature the cylinder, the sphere, the cone:" At the same time, the influence of African sculpture on a group of young painters and poets living in Montmartre - Picasso, Braque, Max Jacob, Apollinaire, Derain, and Andre Salmon - suggested the possibilities of simplification or schematization as a means of pointing out essential features at the expense of insignificant ones. Both Cezanne and the Africans indicated the possibility of abstracting certain qualities of the subject, using lines and planes for the purpose of emphasis. But if a subject could be analyzed into a series of significant features, it became possible (and this was the great discovery of Cubist painters) to leave the laws of perspective behind and rearrange these features in order to gain a fuller, more thorough, view of the subject. The painter could view the subject from all sides and attempt to present its various aspects all at the same time, just as they existed-simultaneously. We have here an attempt to capture yet another aspect of reality by fusing time and space in their representation as they are fused in life, but since the medium is still flat the Cubists introduced what they called a new dimension-movement.

  • HANS HARTUNG HANS HARTUNG (1904, Leipzig, DE – 1989, Antibes, FR)
    HANS HARTUNG HANS HARTUNG (1904, Leipzig, DE – 1989, Antibes, FR) A s a child growing up in the German city of Leipzig, Hans Hartung (1904- 1989) was terrified of thunderstorms. He used to fill notebook after notebook with zig-zag lines, in the hope they’d prevent lightning from harming him. Years later, when Hartung had established himself as one of the world’s top artists, he claimed his interest in abstrac- tion could be traced back to those early drawings of electric flashes across the page.It becomes a vital influence not only on the École de Paris but also later on the arts in Germany. Sadly, his zig-zags don’t really feature in a major retrospective of the artist’s work, Hans Hartung: La fabrique du geste, which opened at the City of Paris Museum of Modern Art this week. Hartung made his name as a pioneer of gestural abstraction, a style en vogue on both sides of the Atlantic after the Second World War. In the United States it went by the name of Abstract Expressionism, in Paris by that of Art Informel or Tachisme (‘tache’ being the French word for spot or stain).

  • HANS HARTUNG Painting – Gesture – Liberation
    HANS HARTUNG Painting – Gesture – Liberation 7 December 2013 – 31 January 2014 Opening 6 December 2013, 7 pm During nearly two months Setareh Gallery will give an insight into the oeuvre of the artist Hans Hartung (*1904, Leipzig - †1989, Antibes). Clearly, Hartung belongs to one of the great names of the Informel. Gestural painting and Golden Ratio, Tachism and composition, freedom and calculated action; all these seemingly diametric terms match the artist’s creative process. Werner Haftmann says about Hartung in his essay The great masters of the Lyrical Abstraction and the Informel that he transforms psychomotoric energies into formal processes. The well-known anecdote about Hartungs reaction to a thunderstorm as a child, illustrates this vividly. To overcome his fear of thunderstorms, the child tries to become equal with thunder and lightning through fast streaks on paper: I ask myself, if I wasn‘t more scared of the noise of the thunder than of the actual lightning, which prece- ded it. ... I wanted to see. And even more: I wanted to draw. In one of my notebooks I caught the quivering flashes of lightning on the fly. Already before the thunderclap hit in, the zigzag lines needed to be on the paper. This way, I tamed the lightning. Besides his studies at the academy in Leipzig, Hartung attends lectures at the philosophical faculty; art history, psychology and philosophy become his elective courses. 1925 he meets Kandinsky, 1926 he attends the International Art Exhibition in Dresden, which makes a big impression on him. His in- tellectual curiosity leads him to Paris, where he continues his studies in painting.

  • Hans HARTUNG APOLLO
    PRESSBOOK Hans HARTUNG APOLLO June 2016 1/1 Apollo magazine The International Art Magazine The fall and rise of the second school of Paris Emma Crichton-Miller 7 JUNE 2016 T 1949-4,1949 (1949), Hans Hartung. Courtesy Waddington Custot Galleries SHARE In the years following the Second World War, there were more than 350 artists working in Paris. They came from all over Europe and beyond, released from terror and drawn by the city’s enduring reputation as the centre of the Western art world. As this year’s anniversary exhibitions for Giacometti make clear, one response to the traumatic experiences of the war was to turn again to the human figure. Another was to pursue an abstraction freed, in the words of painter Georges Mathieu, from ‘rules, dogmas or canons of beauty’. While the nucleus of a second school of Paris had emerged under the occupation, it was in the maelstrom of post-war critical debate that a loose group of non-figurative artists, opposed to the geometric abstraction of the recent past, began to assert itself. Fluctuating alliances of artists explored work variously tagged ‘art informel’, ‘art autre’ or ‘tachisme’ – among them Maria Helena Vieira da Silva, Nicolas de Staël, Serge Poliakoff, Jean- Michel Atlan, Jean Fautrier, and Jean Dubuffet. Their aim was to define a distinctly European counterbalance to American Abstract Expressionism. In 1947, Mathieu mounted an exhibition of ‘lyrical abstraction’, with its emphasis on spontaneity, the performative gesture and the mark, which included Atlan, Jean-Paul Riopelle, Hans Hartung, and Wols. Gerard Schneider explored a lyricism allied to music, while Pierre Soulages declared ‘time and its relation to space’ to be central to his dark, striated paintings.

    Hans Hartung 概述， 早在1945年，漢斯·哈同(德国，法国）就已被公認為最重要的抽象表現主義大師之一。他於 1955年受邀參加第一屆卡塞爾文獻展，於1960年榮獲威尼斯雙年展的國際大獎，並於1975年在 紐約大都會藝術博物館舉辦了大型個人展。 作为一个开创性的艺术家，Hartung 的作品忠于器具运行轨迹而保留的痕迹。是抒情抽象的奠 基人，虽然他一生都在拒绝被任何一种艺术流派所界定。不仅限于画笔，他使用各种工具及自 动设备作画，他独特大胆的明显带有自发性和书法手势的抽象绘画，影响了一代抽象表现主义 和新表现主义艺术家。1960年威尼斯双年展上，他获得了国际绘画大奖，这标志着他绘画生涯 的一个决定性转折。哈东开始直接在画布上即兴创作，并尝试新媒体，即快速干燥的丙烯酸和 乙烯基涂料，以及刮和喷涂技术。在自发性和完美之间寻求平衡一直是哈东绘画美学的核心， 直到他1989年去世。 Hans Hartung achieved international recognition as a seminal figure of art informel, which arose in France during World War II. Beyond the apparent spontaneity of his distinctively bold and almost calligraphic gestural abstraction, rationalism equally informed his style, which arose out of an early interest in the relationship between aesthetics and mathematics—particularly the harmony of the golden ratio—but also out of necessity: early in his career, he meticulously squared up his successful abstract sketches in order to reproduce them on larger canvases, which he could not afford to risk losing to improvisation. The Grand International Prize for Painting, which he won at the 1960 Venice Biennale, marked a decisive turn in his practice. Hartung began improvising directly onto canvas and experimenting with new media, namely fast-drying acrylic and vinyl paints, as well as scraping and spraying techniques. The quest for balance between spontaneity and perfection remained at the core of Hartung’s painterly aesthetics until the end of his life, in 1989.

  • L'art En Guerre
    THE GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM BILBAO presents on March 16, 2013 L’art en guerre France, 1938–1947: FROM PICASSO TO DUBUFFET Sponsored by As a strategic trustee of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao since its inception, the BBVA Group is proud and pleased to continue this historic collaboration, via our foundation, with one of the leading institutions of contemporary artistic culture as well as of our times, renowned and acclaimed around the world and throughout Spain and with strong roots in Basque society. An ambitious exhibition is being presented this season, entitled L’Art en guerre. France, 1938-1947: From Picasso to Dubuffet and originally produced in Paris, which reveals how art was used to respond to the dramatic and complex situation in France between 1938 and 1947, with a particular focus on how artists in our neighbor to the north reacted to World War II. More generally, L’Art en guerre can be seen as an exploration of the relationship between art and war carried out through a wide selection of documents and works, whose authors include some of the most famous names of the 20th century. The pieces created over the course of those years reflect very different aspects of the daily reality of those who lived through that period: their dreams, nightmares, and hopes—in short, the cognitive, creative and emotional atmosphere that made life meaningful in different sectors of society. Yet that context of social chaos and spiritual darkness was also a productive and innovative time for art, which survived everywhere and flowed forth in all variety of circumstances, both as an underground trend and within the parameters of official taste.

  • The Cornerstone Imprint of Kandinsky in the History of Abstract Art
    RESEARCH ASSOCIATION for INTERDISCIPLINARY DecemberRAIS 2020 STUDIES DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.4412297 The Cornerstone Imprint of Kandinsky in the History of Abstract Art Dr. Samah Nassar October University for Modern Sciences and Arts (MSA), Faculty of Arts and Design, Cairo, Egypt snassar@msa.eun.eg ABSTRACT: With all forms of art being continually subjective in the process by which they are perceived and appreciated, abstract art has been no exception, facing both elicited support and criticism over the years. The greatest debate on abstract art was experienced over a century ago when the art first emerged, that is in its initial stages of development. A century ago, abstract art signified a new perception of art that was conceived and accepted only by a few people. However, the art later transformed to be accepted by many as one of the purest and most beautiful forms of art, a change that was brought about through the works and ideas presented by Wassily Kandinsky. Kandinsky had, through his artistic vision and modes of expression, led to a critical revolution in the way abstract art was visualized and conceived. Therefore, he had not only helped lay the robust foundation that governed many of the concepts in abstract art, in contemporary and modern times, but he had also helped revolutionize its framework enriching it with the elements it still carries to the modern day. KEYWORDS: Abstract art, Kandinsky, Avant-garde, Contemporary art Discussion Preceding the 20th century, art was closely associated with realism, since it was always attached to “reality”. In other words, art has been a tool through which artists captured and reflected realistic elements, much similar to modern-day cameras.
