Anni + Josef Albers
, W BOOKS, 2022 Hardcover, 208 pagina's, NL, 295 x 250 mm, Nieuw, met illustraties in kleur / z/w. ISBN 9789462585225.
In oktober 2022 presenteert Kunstmuseum Den Haag een grote tentoonstelling over het leven en werk van het kunstenaarsechtpaar Anni en Josef Albers. Na hun opleiding aan het Bauhaus in Duitsland groeiden zij in de Verenigde Staten uit tot pioniers van het modernisme. Josef Albers? onuitputtelijke experiment met kleur en vorm leidt tot zijn beroemde reeks Homage to the Square, terwijl Anni Albers wordt beschouwd als een van de grondleggers van de moderne textielkunst. Aan de hand van ruim 200 werken, bestaande uit schilderijen, textiel, grafiek, sculptuur, meubels en sieraden, demonstreert Kunstmuseum Den Haag hoe een gedeelde artistieke visie en overeenkomstige inspiratiebronnen in de hand van Anni en Josef Albers resulteerden in twee geheel verschillende, maar even belangwekkende oeuvres. De tentoonstelling en publicatie komen tot stand in nauwe samenwerking met The Josef en Anni Albers Foundation. Nicholas Fox Weber, directeur van de Foundation, en conservator Willem van Roij leveren een bijdrage aan de catalogus. Daarnaast bevat de publicatie artikelen van Frouke van Dijke en Caro Verbeek, conservatoren van Kunstmuseum Den Haag. Het rijk ge llustreerde Anni + Josef Albers biedt een heldere introductie op het leven en werk van Anni en Josef Albers, en staat uitgebreid stil bij de door hen gedeelde inspiratiebronnen als muziek en precolumbiaanse cultuur.
JOSEF ALBERS Spirituality and Rigor
, silvana, 2013 HB, 280 x 240 mm, 288 pages,, 135 colour illustrations,ENG/ IT edition. ISBN 9788836625963.
Josef Albers (1888-1976) was one of the foremost geometric abstract artists of the twentieth century. He made his mark initially as an exceptionally graceful and competent figurative artist, always interested in economy of line and in precise articulation, determined to keep the personal out of his work while revealing the universal and timeless truths of earthly existence. While at the Bauhaus, where he was for longer than any other individual, Albers was elevated from the position of student to Master, and began to have a tremendous influence as an art teacher. That impact continued when, with his wife, the textile artist Anni Albers, he emigrated to the United States and began to teach at the experimental Black Mountain College. In 1970, Josef Albers was the first living American artist to have a solo retrospective exhibition at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art, with the emphasis on his "Homages to the Square", a series of color paintings that he made until his death in 1976. Josef Albers: Spirituality and Rigor has been conceived by Nicholas Fox Weber, Executive Director of the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation, for the National Museum of Perugia to introduce a range of Josef's work that makes manifest his personal religiosity as well as his deep immersion in Catholicism. Weber knew Albers well, and has made a concerted effort with this exhibition to make manifest the spiritual aspect that underlies his art.
