Zustand: Gut. 119 Seiten; durchgeh. illustriert (s/w-Fotografie); 30,5 cm; fadengeh. Orig.-Pappband m. illustr. OUmschlag. Gutes Exemplar. - Titelblatt von David Armstrong SIGNIERT (Berlin, 1999). - Englisch. - Nachwort von Nan Goldin. - David Bradley Armstrong (* 24. Mai 1954 in Arlington; 26. Oktober 2014 in Los Angeles) war ein amerikanischer Fotograf. Er besuchte die Satya Community School in Cambridge (Massachusetts). Hier lernte er Nan Goldin kennen, mit der er sein Leben lang befreundet blieb. In den 1970er Jahren zog er nach New York um, wo er sein Kunststudium begann, zuerst als Maler und später als Fotograf. Als Stammgast im legendären New Yorker Mudd Club, der 1978 eröffnete, porträtierte er die dort verkehrenden Underground-Celebrities, wie Jean-Michel Basquiat, René Ricard, John Waters oder Steven Meisel, und fing die Club-Atmosphäre ein. Gegen Ende seines Lebens durchstreifte er sein Viertel in Brooklyn und schuf die Serie "All Day Every Day", in der er urbane Alltagsfragmente in Unschärfe verschwimmen ließ und so in eine sanfte Melancholie tauchte. Stilistisch wird Armstrong der sogenannten fotografischen Boston School zugeordnet, zu der auch Künstler wie Nan Goldin, Jack Pierson oder Mark Morrisroe gezählt werden. In den frühen Jahren seiner künstlerischen Tätigkeit fotografierte Armstrong Dragqueens, "druggies" und "outsiders", die zu seinem Freundeskreis gehörten. Im Laufe seiner Karriere nahm er zahlreiche Fotografien von jungen Männern auf, was ihn auch der Modefotografie annäherte. (wiki) // . The simple, direct composition of Armstrong's photographs belies their complex meanings. As one looks through the book and into a young man's eyes there lies a vulnerability before the camera, yet we see beyond the surface of the page into the very core of his soul. As the subject returns your gaze you see through him, and a connection is made. So too with the landscapes; the viewer is inexplicably drawn into a world that is both familiar and transcendental. Armstrong's photographs are subdued, yet infused with an intense longing. Armstrong started his photographic journey by taking portraits of the people who give meaning to his life. He "wanted to make pictures that were simple, direct and accessible, about the relationship between myself, the sitter, and the light." Yet in the light, the air, the very quality of place, the landscapes eventually superseded the human subjects. Through this juxtaposition of portraits and landscapes we come to understand the intuitive quality of Armstrong's vision. The photographs show the desire and possibility of rescinding the constraints of our world and entering one that is beautiful, sensual and timeless.

Postkarte. Zustand: Gut. Blanko-Postkarte von Julian Schnabel mit blauem Edding signiert /// Autogramm Autograph signiert signed signee /// Julian Schnabel (* 26. Oktober 1951 in New York City, New York) ist ein US-amerikanischer Maler und Filmregisseur. Der Sohn jüdischer Eltern[1] - sein Vater war ein erfolgreicher Geschäftsmann - wuchs in Brooklyn auf. 1965 übersiedelte seine Familie, der auch noch zwei ältere Geschwister angehören, nach Brownsville, Texas. Nach dem Umzug in die ländliche Umgebung begann Schnabel unter Einsamkeit zu leiden, suchte Trost in der Malerei und verbrachte den Sommer 1969 in San Francisco.[2] Schnabel studierte von 1969 bis 1973 an der University of Houston in Texas. In den Jahren 1973 und 1974 besuchte er das ?Independent Study Program? am Whitney Museum in New York. 1976 arbeitete er als Koch in ?Mickey Ruskin?s Ocean Club Restaurant?, 1976 bis 1979 folgten längere Aufenthalte in Italien, Frankreich und Spanien, 1978 auch in Deutschland. Er gilt als einer der Hauptvertreter des Neoexpressionismus/New Image Painting. Viele seiner Werke sind auf unebenen Oberflächen von gebrochenem Glas oder Porzellan gemalt. Seit 2010 hängt im Foyer des Opernturms in Frankfurt am Main sein Gemälde Ahab. Es ist auf einer zwölf Meter hohen und dreizehn Meter breiten Fläche aus gebrauchtem Segeltuch gemalt und zeigt einen blutbefleckten schwarzen Wal und einen stilisierten weißen Schwan, jeweils Umkehrungen von Fachbegriffen aus der Finanzwelt: weißer Wal und schwarzer Schwan. Schnabel hat u. a. auch die Cover der Alben The Raven[3] von Lou Reed und By the Way[4] der Band Red Hot Chili Peppers gestaltet. Letzteres bildet seine Tochter Stella ab, die damals eine Beziehung mit dem Gitarristen der Red Hot Chili Peppers, John Frusciante, unterhielt. 1995 stellte Schnabel ein eigenes Album namens Every Silver Lining Has A Cloud vor, an dem sich die Musiker Bill Laswell, Buckethead, Bernie Worrell und Nicky Skopelitis beteiligten. Seit Mitte der 1990er Jahre trat Schnabel auch als Regisseur mehrerer Kinofilme hervor. Im Jahr 1996 realisierte er Basquiat, eine Biografie über den Künstler Jean-Michel Basquiat, der von Jeffrey Wright dargestellt wurde. Vier Jahre später folgte Before Night Falls (2000). Dabei schlüpfte der spanische Schauspieler Javier Bardem in die Rolle von Reinaldo Arenas und erhielt dafür eine Oscar-Nominierung. 2007 folgte mit Schmetterling und Taucherglocke ein Porträt von Jean-Dominique Bauby, dem ehemaligen Herausgeber der französischen Elle, der 1995 im Alter von 43 Jahren einen Schlaganfall erlitt, der fast seinen gesamten Körper lähmte. In der Hauptrolle agierte der preisgekrönte französische Schauspieler und Regisseur Mathieu Amalric, nachdem zuvor der US-Amerikaner Johnny Depp als Darsteller gehandelt worden war.[5] Der Film war 2007 im Wettbewerb der 60. Filmfestspiele von Cannes vertreten und brachte Schnabel den Regiepreis ein. 2008 erhielt er außerdem für diese Arbeit den Golden Globe Award für die beste Regie und für den besten fremdsprachigen Film. Schnabel mit seiner damaligen Lebensgefährtin Rula Jebreal (li.) und der Miral-Hauptdarstellerin Freida Pinto (2010) Julian Schnabel war mit der 21 Jahre jüngeren palästinensisch-italienischen Journalistin und Schriftstellerin Rula Jebreal liiert,[6] deren semi-autobiografischen Roman La strada dei fiori di Miral (2004) er 2010 unter dem Titel Miral verfilmte. Der Spielfilm, bei dem Jebreal auch am Drehbuch mitarbeitete, stellt ein junges Mädchen aus dem Dar-Al-Tifl-Waisenhaus in Jerusalem in den Mittelpunkt (gespielt von Freida Pinto), das später als Lehrerin den Widerstand des palästinensischen Volkes kennenlernt. Ab 2012 war er mit dem Model Lykke May Andersen liiert.[7] Andersen wurde 2013 Mutter eines Sohnes.[8] Im Januar 2019 heiratete er Louise Kugelberg. Die Zusammenarbeit mit der Drehbuchautorin begann 2014, mit der Arbeit am Drehbuch von Van Gogh. Aus zwei Ehen Schnabels und seiner Beziehung gingen sechs Kinder hervor. Er besitzt Häuser in New York, Montauk und Spanien, darunter eine ehemalige New Yorker Parfüm-Fabrik, die er in einen venezianischen Palast namens Palazzo Chupi umbauen ließ.[2] Sein Sohn Vito Schnabel ist Kunsthändler. In dem Dokumentarfilm Julian Schnabel - A Private Portrait des Regisseurs Pappi Corsicato von 2017 erklärt Maler Julian Schnabel über sein künstlerisches Schaffen: ?Ich male seit 1979 im Freien. Ich arbeite gern draußen. Am Anfang hat es mich gestört, wenn der Wind ein Bild umwarf oder Grashalme im Wachs kleben blieben. Aber dann merkte ich, dass die Vorteile überwiegen. Man sieht die Bilder aus der Ferne und zu verschiedenen Tageszeiten. Es ist wunderbar, draußen zu sein und den Himmel sehen zu können. Man sieht sein Werk bei schlechtem und gutem Wetter. Wenn man ein Bild draußen malt, sieht es auch drinnen immer gut aus.?[9] Seit 2020 ist er Mitglied der American Academy of Arts and Letters.[10] /// Standort Wimregal GAD-10.087 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 10.

Decorative Boards in Sleeve. Zustand: Fine. First Edition. 160pp, profusely illustrated in color and b&w. Text in English and Japanese. Artist, actor, director, musician, scenester and John Lautner homeowner, this amazing visual scrapbook illuminates all of these facets of the man that calls himself Vincent Gallo, and more - frequently accompanied by Gallo's own acidic commentary. With numerous family and on-set photos (many by Gallo himself), this published only in Japan treasury features very candid pix of such colleagues and pals as Val Kilmer, Johnnys Depp and Ramone, Winona Ryder, Lukas Haas, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Ewan McGregor, and Christina "Day I met her which was the luckiest day of her Life" Ricci.

Pictorial wrappers. Zustand: Near Fine. WILDLY INSCRIBED BY "QUEEN OF THE 80s DOWNTOWN SCENE" PATTI ASTOR on the title page. Also includes a wonderful "pink champagne bottle and glass" drawing in her hand, outlined by hearts. An all-but-pristine copy to boot of this elusve, self-published 2013 memoir by the legendary downtown proprietess and doyen of the East Village hot spot "Fun Gallery". Lasting only 4 years (1981-1985), Fun Gallery quickly developed an outsized reputation and influence on the New York art and cultural scenes. And this primarily because of Patti Astor herself, who not only offered very early shows to Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring and Jane Dickson but also actively courted leading hip-hop and graffiti artists such as Dondi, Futura 2000, FABS FREDDY, Lee Quinones and others to take part in the scene. By moving hip-hop and graffiti artists into a physical gallery space --no matter how modest-- she was "bringing uptown sensibilities downtown". A scarce memoir of the nascent --but fast-moving-- art scene in SoHo and the East Village, among other downtown spots, authored by one of the scene's principal actors.

First edition, first printing. Signed by KAWS and ten other contributing artists, photographers and filmmakers. Publisher's original red cloth with gilt titles to the upper board and spine, in dustwrapper. Illustrated profusely in colour and black and white throughout. A fine copy, the binding square and firm, the contents clean throughout. Complete with the fine original dustwrapper. Produced in conjunction with the international travelling museum exhibition of the same name which opened at the Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinatti, Ohio in March 2004. The related Aaron Rose and Joshua Leonard directed documentary film was released in 2008. Signed in black ink on across the front pastedown and endpaper by KAWS, Terry Richardson, Tobin Yelland, Chris Johanson, Cheryl Dunn, Christian Strike, Aaron Rose, Ivory Serra and three other contributors. Scarce thus. In the 1990s, a loose-knit group of American artists and creators, many just out of their teens, began their careers influenced by the popular underground youth subcultures of the day, such as skateboarding, graffiti, street fashion, and independent music. Artists like Shepard Fairey, Mark Gonzales, Spike Jonze, Margaret Kilgallen, Mike Mills, Barry McGee, Phil Frost, Chris Johanson, Harmony Korine, and Ed Templeton began to create art that reflected the lifestyles they led. Many had no formal training and almost no conception of the inner workings of the art world. They learned their crafts through practice, trial and error, and good old-fashioned innovation. Not since the Beat Generation have we seen a group of creative individuals with such a unified aesthetic sense and varied cultural facets. The world of art has been greatly affected by their accomplishments as have the worlds of fashion, music, literature, film, and, ironically, athletics. Beautiful Losers is a retrospective celebration of this spirit, with hundreds of artworks by over two dozen artists, from precursors like Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, and Larry Clark, to more recent adherents Ryan McGinniss, KAWS, and Geoff McFetridge. Work in all conceivable mediums is included, plus reproductions of reams of ephemera. The accompanying essays are contributed by half a dozen writers who have championed these beautiful losers from the start.
