Paperback. Zustand: Good. Literary Nonfiction. Art. In April of 1950, about two dozen of the artists who came to be known as the Abstract Expressionists met for a series of discussions about their own work as well as the contemporary scene. Nearly 60 years after the actual meetings took place, the transcript of ARTISTS' SESSIONS AT STUDIO 35 (1950) still pulses with the heated discussions around basic artistic issues like titling, process, relationship to history, community, and professionalism. Often referenced, but rarely fleshed out, this series of closed meetings allows readers fly-on-the-wall access to the artists' discussions. The goal of the current reprint is to refresh this document by giving it a new life in a new form.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. "As a painter and as one interested in education in relation to painting and drawing, the writer has become personally interested in the problem of subject matter in art. Since there is controversy in regards to this tendency in painting, research directed toward the source of ideas involved in the work, it is felt, will help to make clear the intention of the artists. This research will deal with the attitudes of these artists toward their own work and their relation to tradition as they express it." ?Robert Goodnough (1950). The absence of traditional subject matter was a primary issue for painters in mid-twentieth-century America whose imagery lacked representational references; it was also a problem for those struggling to understand modern art. Robert Goodnough (1917?2010), then a New York University graduate student and an artist deeply involved with these issues, responded to the situation in a 1950 research paper, "Subject Matter of the Artist: An Analysis of Contemporary Subject Matter in Painting as Derived from Interviews with Those Artists Referred to as the Intrasubjectivists." Goodnough's paper constitutes the first scholarly work on the artists who became known as the Abstract Expressionists and includes interviews with William Baziotes, Willem de Kooning, Adolph Gottlieb, Robert Motherwell, Barnett Newman, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko. This previously unpublished study is presented here for the first time alongside related writings by Goodnough.…

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Cuban American painter Gustavo Ojeda (1958-89) is best known for lush and meditative urban nightscapes, which brought him recognition in the 1980s downtown New York art scene. He exhibited alongside artists including Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, and David Wojnarowicz before dying from AIDS-related complications in 1989, just two weeks shy of his thirty-first birthday. Ojeda's paintings were notably unpopulated, but in his private sketchbooks, he fixated on the people of New York, filling thousands of pages with disembodied faces and the bodies of sleeping people riding public transportation and moving within urban space.? An Excess of Quiet: Selected Sketches by Gustavo Ojeda, 1979-1989 presents a selection of over 200 sketches that demonstrate the artist's rigorous commitment to craft. In the context of loss, both archival and intimate, that accompanied the height of the AIDS crisis, this book is meant to serve as a recuperative introduction to Ojeda's oeuvre through material that has never before been shared publicly. In the margins of his sketchbooks, Ojeda often wrote that he felt anxious about his productivity, shaming himself for not being able to paint more before his death. This book answers Ojeda's worries with the recovery of what was always right in front of him, his most obsessive and tender practice.…

Paperback. Zustand: Near Fine. Book is in pristine condition. "In 1970, galvanized in part by the musical experiments of John Cage, Gavin Bryars, and Cornelius Cardew, students at Portsmouth College of Art formed their own symphony orchestra. Christened the Portsmouth Sinfonia, the primary requirement for membership specified that all players, regardless of skill, experience, or musicianship, be unfamiliar with their chosen instruments. This restriction, coupled with the decision to play "only the familiar bits" of classical music, challenged the Sinfonia's audience to reconsider the familiar, as the ensemble haplessly butchered the classics at venues ranging from avant-garde music festivals to the Royal Albert Hall." ? "What seems to be a joke to some is in actuality an art practice at work. The thing is everyone involved with the orchestra was serious in doing the best that they can to perform the music. For me, it's another way of looking at the classics. It's interesting to hear these familiar works in punk or at the very least, a new way of approaching music. The book expresses the joy of being in the Portsmouth Sinfonia as well as its importance to the avant-garde music world." [Tosh] ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 232 pages.…
