Foster has served the field widely in reviewing the scholarship of his peers for The National Endowment of the Humanities, The National Endowment of the Arts and the Getty Post-Doctoral Grant Program. Additionally, he has administered and directed numerous fine arts and interdisciplinary programs of international scope; most notably, the University of Iowa’s Program for Modern Studies (with Estera Milman), widely respected as one of the best and most successful programs of its kind, the Corroborate (Intermedia Program), and The Dada Archive and Research Center, the largest American research center devoted to study in this field. As faculty involved in teaching and research at major art history programs from 1972 through 2001, Foster taught a full spectrum of twentieth century graduate courses and advanced seminars, and supervised numerous M.A. and Ph.D. students through courses of study spanning all aspects of the history of twentieth century art. He also served as faculty for the American Painting Summer Institute sponsored by Bowdoin College. Stephen Foster’s fine arts experience, as an educator, curator and consultant, spans over thirty years and is backgrounded by a highly respected career as an art historian, curator, and researcher. He has a distinguished record of widely cited scholarly publications in the arts of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Foster has been responsible for curating major exhibitions in the Americas, Europe and Asia and has undertaken curating for clients as part of his work with collections; private, public and institutional. Among many other exhibitions, Foster was responsible for curating the European Franz Kline Retrospective (Franz Kline: Art and the Structure of Identity) dating from 1994-1995. The exhibition was composed of over 70 works and was accompanied by a book-length catalogue bearing the same title (213 pages with 21 black and white illustrations and 71 full color plates. Bibliography and Chronology). The exhibition was hosted by the Fundacio Antoni Tapies and traveled to the Whitechapel Art Gallery, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, and the Saarland Museum (Saarbrucken). Additionally, Foster curated an ambitious survey of post-War art inclusive of all major movements spanning the years 1945 to 1980. An American Odyssey, 1945/1980: Debating Modernism. An exhibition of one hundred thirty works accompanied by a book length (410 pp.) catalogue with all exhibited works reproduced full page, in color.

Foster’s consulting and editing activities have ranged from advising prominent private, public and corporate art collections to corporate publication consulting. He has served as consultant and series editor for major American presses, and has managed and coordinated large teams of experts, numbering in the dozens, into systematic, coherent research and publication programs. To cite but two examples, Foster served as series editor for UMI Research Press’ and Macmillan/G.K. Hall's fine arts publication programs. Numbering over sixty volumes, the UMI series (Studies in the Fine Arts: The Avant-Garde) constituted an exhaustive revisionist study of twentieth century art history employing the expertise of many of today's most widely respected scholars. In addition, Foster served as Contributing General Editor to the ten volume G.K. Hall project (Crisis and the Arts: A History of Dada), described as the most comprehensive monograph on a movement ever undertaken; a project that set new standards for publication of its kind. Further publications unrelated to exhibitions include the following: Hans Richter: Activism, Modernism, and the Avant-Garde, contributing editor (Cambridge: The MIT Press, 1998).

  • Painting the Absolute
    ANDRÉI NAKOV MALEVICH painting the absolute An iconic figure in the history of modern art, the Russian painter Kazimir Malevich (1879-1935) was the creator of Suprematism, best known for his emblematic Black Square (1915). Censored in Russia for many years, his revolutionary writings were only recognised at the end of the twentieth century, initially in Western Europe. Similarly, much of his work remained unknown until the fall of Communism; little studied, the life and work of this painter remain shrouded in an aura of mystery. Andréi Nakov’s monumental study of this prophetic artist is founded on many decades of research in Russia, Western Europe and the US. The author has uncovered many previously unknown documents, and sheds a new light on Malevich’s pivotal role in the development of modern art, offering a radically new interpretation of a • Andréi Nakov and Malevich’s daughter, Anna-Maria Uriman. fascinating artist.

    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.

  • Arte Povera, Press Release with Image Copy
    SPROVIERI GIOVANNI ANSELMO, JANNIS KOUNELLIS, GIUSEPPE PENONE, EMILIO PRINI recent works preview 4 dec, 6 - 8 pm exhibition 5 dec - 16 feb 23 heddon street london w1b 4bq Sprovieri is delighted to present an exhibition of recent works by Giovanni Anselmo, Jannis Kounellis, Giuseppe Penone and Emilio Prini. The selection of works brings together some of the most influential living artists of the Arte Povera, the Italian artistic movement that in the late 1960s explored art not only using ‘poor materials’ but also conceiving the image as a conscious action rather than a representation of ideas and concepts. Ofering a contemporary transposition of their early subjects and practices, the exhibition reveals how these artists have continuously developed the energy and innovation of their poetics. The work ‘Ultramarine Blue While It Appears Towards Overseas’ by Giovanni Anselmo - especially conceived for this exhibition - reflects the artist’s commitment to create a work which must be ‘the physification of the force behind an action, of the energy of a situation or event’. A deep and bright blue square made with acrylic painting will be outlined by the artist against the white wall of the gallery. Jannis Kounellis contributes to the exhibition with a powerful triptych work: three large sculptures comprising of steel panels, iron beams and tar imprints of an ordinary man coat. The triptych translates the tension and alienation of our contemporary society where modernisation and industrial development are inevitably put in dialogue with our individual and traditional values. Giuseppe Penone’s sculpture ‘Acero (Maple)’ 2005 is inspired by the search for an equal relationship between man and material.
