LUCIAN FREUD. THE PAINTER'S ETCHINGS,
New York, Museum of Modern Art, 2007 Bound, full blue cloth, illustrated dustjacket, 225 x 310mm., 144pp., profoundly illustrated in colour and b/w. ISBN 9780870707063.
One of the foremost figurative artists working today, Lucian Freud has redefined portraiture and the nude through his unblinking scrutiny of the human form. Although he is best known as a painter, etching is integral to his practice. Lucian Freud: The Painter's Etchings accompanies an exhibition that will present the full scope of Freud's etchings, including some 75 works, from the rare early experiments in the 1940s to the increasingly complex compositions he has created since rediscovering the medium in the early1980s. The catalogue will also include a selection of paintings and drawings, illluminating the crucial, cross-pollinating relationship between Freud's etchings and his paintings. New book.
K THE KOLLWITZ. New York City
, MOMA, N.Y. (Thames), 2024 HB, 270 x 230 mm, ENG. edition, 256 pages, 190 colored illustrations, NEW., ****Expo: 31/03/2024 - 20/06/2024, Museum of Modern Art, New York City ****. ISBN 9781633451612.
This catalogue accompanies the first major exhibition on K the Kollwitz in the U.S. in more than thirty years, and the first presentation at a New York City museum. In the early decades of the twentieth century, when many artists were experimenting with the language of abstraction and the leading figures were almost exclusively men, K the Kollwitz (German, 1867-1945) achieved unlikely renown for her figurative prints focusing on the hardships of women and the working class. Convinced that printed art was the most effective organ of social criticism, she developed into one of history's most outstanding graphic artists. Published in conjunction with the first major international loan exhibition of her work in the U.S. in more than thirty years, and the first major presentations at a New York City museum, this catalogue traces the development of Kollwitz's career from the 1890s until her death in 1945, showcasing approximately 130 extraordinary and rarely seen examples of her work in prints, drawings, and sculpture.
