Recommended Art Books, by phischa on Aug 30, 2018 7:42:37 GMT 1, www.lundhumphries.com/products/84639STREET TO STUDIO Rafael Schacter with a foreword by Carlo McCormick Marks the 50th anniversary of contemporary graffiti Presents the groundbreaking concept that graffiti and street art are entering a new phase - 'Intermural Art' Includes profiles on the key practitioners including Alicia McCarthy, Barry McGee, Christian Falsnaes, Eddie Martinez, Evan Roth, Filippo Minelli, Kaws, Mike Ballard, Swoon and The Propeller Group DESCRIPTION For fifty years, graffiti and street art have been challenging conventions and stimulating debate around our perceptions of what constitutes art. As the genre enters its sixth decade, this ground-breaking book presents a new interpretation of where these alternative artforms are situated today. Introducing the concept of 'Intermural Art' - art in-between the walls - Rafael Schacter presents a genre at a key moment of transition. While many street and graffiti artists are still challenging the orthodoxies of the public sphere, an increasingly prevalent group are reshaping the field by their studio practice. No longer furtively entering the institution, no longer slavishly reproducing exterior works inside, these artists have begun to create a form that articulates graffiti, street and contemporary-art influences, a form beholden on high art techniques and practices whilst simultaneously embracing its non-institutional roots. Through forty profiles of the leading proponents of this new approach from around the globe, Rafael Schacter presents a compelling analysis for 'Intermural Art' while also showcasing some of the boldest work being made within contemporary art today.

This vibrant monograph marks the first major survey of Jonas Wood's printmaking.
Jonas Wood is inspired by the domestic worlds of plants and household objects, vases, flowers, and basketballs. Through these familiar objects, Wood explores art historical modes such as perspective and abstraction. Tracing the evolution of Wood's unique visual vocabulary through his printing practice, this catalogue reveals his understanding of line, shape, and color, and how that allows him to seamlessly transpose the vividness of his paintings into print.
In more than fifty limited edition prints produced between 2004 and 2018, Wood explores visual themes such as museum interiors, tennis courts, logos, and ceramics; effectively examining the immediacy of everyday life while referencing art history and several of art's most accomplished practitioners, including Pierre Bonnard, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, David Hockney, and Ed Ruscha. The prints--produced in the print studios of Cirrus Editions Ltd., Counter Editions, Hamilton Press, Wavelength Press, and more--also attest to the importance of collaboration in Wood's work.

Recommended Art Books, by racket on Dec 13, 2018 11:25:15 GMT 1, New Jonas Wood book available for pre order from amazon:
prince of persia plot
Southern California-based painter Jonas Wood (b. 1977) depicts everyday scenes in a colorful, graphic style that references modernist and Pop aesthetics while remaining unquestionably contemporary. The first book to consider Wood's work in a scholarly, art-historical context, this mid-career survey cements his place in the lineage of artists who similarly embraced quotidian imagery and pictorial flatness to tell deeper stories, such as David Hockney, Henri Matisse, and Philip Guston. While based on intense real-life observation, Wood's paintings depict worlds that are ultimately fictive, subjected to a process of manipulation through preparatory photo collages. The authors hone in on Wood's ability to compose scenes dense with objects, people, and places that have intense personal meaning yet function allegorically to suggest universal situations and themes. Striking illustrations of Wood's pieces demonstrate how the personal has become public in the digital age, capturing the brilliance and depth of this artist on the rise.
About the Author
Anna Katherine Brodbeck is Nancy and Tim Hanley Associate Curator of Contemporary Art at the Dallas Museum of Art. Ken Allan is associate professor of art history and associate academic director of the Study of the US Institute on Contemporary American Literature at Seattle University.

Designed by
Published by Nieves, 2018
First edition
Softcover, 112 pages, 3-color offset, 7.6 ร 10.1 inches The work of Geoff McFetridge (b. Calgary 1971, Canada) is concerned with the human condition. He engages existence and semiotics from a curious, pragmatic, poetic and personal point of departure. His paintings, drawings, and sculptures often (quite literally) circle around topics such as beginning and end, relation and understanding, perception, the transcendental and the unconscious.
In McFetridgeโs work, common human themes are investigated with the lightness of an intuitive graphic vocabulary. Complex and dense while equally fragile and sparse, McFetridgeโs visual language is dance and mountaineering: heavy in preparation, light in execution.
Coming Back Is Half The Trip consists of studies for paintings and sculptures shown in his fourth solo exhibition with V1 Gallery / Eighteen in Copenhagen.
The book offers new approaches to cognition. McFetridge ventures onto the edge of meaning, bringing us with him on a trip that we can sense, but struggle to verbalize.
