Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 288 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | "Through forty-three artists, born over a span of a hundred years, We Are Made of Stories: Self-Taught Artists in the Robson Family Collection explores the ways in which artists, and the pioneering collectors who recognized the value of their work, brought lasting change to the face of American art. The exhibition and catalogue center on select artists collected by Margaret Z. Robson between the late 1980s and her death in 2014. Robson believed that these artists reflected a truly diverse nation of makers, and critically expanded the boundaries of American art through singular bodies of work. The Smithsonian American Art Museum broke new ground in 1970, showing and collecting folk and self-taught artists who challenged conventional notions about art and artists. In 2016 the Margaret Z. Robson collection was donated to SAAM by Margaret's son, Douglas O. Robson, uniting these kindred visions. Doug Robson has continued to support an expansive vision of art, and the exhibition also features artworks from Doug's own collection, promised to SAAM"--.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A richly illustrated history of self-taught artists and how they changed American artArtists without formal training, who learned from family, community, and personal journeys, have long been a presence in American art. But it wasn't until the 1980s, with the help of trailblazing advocates, that the collective force of their creative vision and bold self-definition permanently changed the mainstream art world. In We Are Made of Stories, Leslie Umberger traces the rise of self-taught artists in the twentieth century and examines how, despite wide-ranging societal, racial, and gender-based obstacles, they redefined who could be rightfully seen as an artist and revealed a much more diverse community of American makers.Lavishly illustrated throughout, We Are Made of Stories features more than one hundred drawings, paintings, and sculptures, ranging from the narrative to the abstract, by forty-three artists-including James Castle, Thornton Dial, William Edmondson, Howard Finster, Bessie Harvey, Dan Miller, Sister Gertrude Morgan, the Philadelphia Wireman, Nellie Mae Rowe, Judith Scott, and Bill Traylor. The book centralizes the personal stories behind the art, and explores enduring themes, including self-definition, cultural heritage, struggle and joy, and inequity and achievement. At the same time, it offers a sweeping history of self-taught artists, the critical debates surrounding their art, and how museums have gradually diversified their collections across lines of race, gender, class, and ability.Recasting American art history to embrace artists who have been excluded for too long, We Are Made of Stories vividly captures the power of art to show us the world through the eyes of another.Published in association with the Smithsonian American Art MuseumExhibition ScheduleSmithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, DCJuly 1, 2022-March 26, 2023.…
