  • 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).

  • The Role of the Arts in Relations Between Soviet Russia and the Republic Of
    JOURNAL OF SOCIAL EDUCATION AND INTERDISCIPLINARY SCIENCE UNIVERSITY "FEHMI AGANI" GJAKOVA The Role of the Arts in Relations between Soviet Russia and the Republic of Turkey 1922-1944 Hasan KARACAN Cyprus Science University, Tourism Faculty, North Cyprus [email protected] Abstract: In the period of their modernization, the USSR (Soviet Russia) and the newly formed Republic of Turkey used cultural relations to promote good relations between their countries, which in our twenty-first century translates to the use of “soft power.” In the period of 1922 to 1944, cultural exchange translated to mutual help with shaping new cultures. An awareness of uses and necessary restrictions regarding propaganda would emerge. According to the correspondence between the wives of Soviet politician and educationalist Lev Borisovich Kamenev and Turkish president Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the Russian-Turkish exchange started with cinema and theater, and progressed with other forms of art, especially music. The introduction of Marxist literary theory from the Russian side would expand to a whole new aesthetic throughout continental Europe, and eventually go full circle back to the Middle East in the modern trend towards mainstream literature. Therefore, this particular correspondence documenting these first cultural exchanges is of great interest. The author of the article has worked from both Russian and Turkish records, translating for the benefit of our English readers. Keywords: Soviet Russia, Republic of Turkey, good relations, performing arts, soft power, Marxist literary theory 1. Introduction Olga Kameneva,1 the wife of the prominent Soviet politician Lev Borisovich Kamenev,2 who would later become the head of the VOKS organization (All-Union Society for Cultural Relations with Foreign Countries) sent a letter to Mustafa Kemal Pasha's wife Latife Hanım on May 14, 1924;3 he gave her information about the arts and the situation of women in the Soviet Union.

  • 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.
