Beschreibung

An intensely intellectual painter, Robert Motherwell is renowned for his distinctive Abstract Expressionist style. The seminal artist permeated his gestural works with an expressionism and austerity reflective of the human psyche; at the same time his oeuvre addressed political and humanitarian themes. Robert Motherwell: Pure Painting is an indepth exploration of his artistic practice. Leading art scholars examine the American artists turn from Surrealism to abstraction and analyze the major series that developed over his fiftyyear career. The catalogue studies the dialogue between Motherwells art and the nineteenthcentury French painting tradition, investigates his relationship to Spanish techniques and processes, with an emphasis on their underlying political significance, and delves into Motherwells use of ochre pigment, with its evocation of both deep geological time and avantgarde practices. In 1940s New York City ROBERT MOTHERWELL (*1915, Aberdeen, WA-1991, Provincetown, MA) entered a milieu of artists whose radical new style of painting came to be known as Abstract Expressionism.
