He initially came to prominence as a first-generation Abstract Expressionist, alongside his close friends Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning and Mark Rothko. Toward the end of the 1960s, dissatisfied with abstraction, he embarked on an intense phase of drawing, which culminated in his departure from the "purity" demanded of abstract art. Guston introduced human figures smoking, drinking and painting; large heads, severed hairy legs, clumsy shoes and domestic objects such as walls, doors and lamp bulbs were among the motifs of these new paintings.

The art of Alice Neel (1900-1984) distinguished itself from that of her American contemporaries by the special intimacy of its style, in which her drawing practice was a decisive factor.

Though somewhat less known than her paintings, Neel's drawings and watercolors articulate an array of influences--German Expressionist and Neue Sachlichkeit painting, the Ashcan School, an early sojourn in Cuba--that accompanied her through her tentative beginnings in the mid-1920s through to the maturity of her art after the Second World War, when she found room to accommodate abstraction and Pop art.

Summary:
Alexander Calder (1898–1976) famously transposed modernist visual abstraction into three-dimensional space, initially doing so in the context of European abstract artists such as Mondrian.

Alexander Calder (1898–1976) famously transposed modernist visual abstraction into three-dimensional space, initially doing so in the context of European abstract artists such as Mondrian. In 1933, leaving Paris for his native United States, he settled in an old farmhouse in Roxbury, Connecticut, where the forms of nature became a new source of inspiration for his creativity. By the summer of 1934, Calder was producing his first outdoor sculptures. His monumental standing mobile "The Tree" (1966) exemplifies this new tension between abstraction and figuration. This volume, published for an exhibition at the Fondation Beyeler, tracks Calder’s evolution away from geometric abstraction and toward large-scale biomorphism via the tree motif.

His interest lies in architecture and design, in how things are made and why, and in interactions with places. He therefore fills this book with numerous drawings, sketches and full-colour photographs, all of which revolve around the topic of the so-called misunderstanding of Modernism and how urban settings and ideals can be put back on track through effective sculptural or monumental transformations of public space. Part manifesto, part research project, this book presents a fascinating re-imagination of Modernism’s failed and dilapidated legacy.

Summary:
Mark Manders est sculpteur. Ses sculptures et installations intègrent la terre, le métal peint, les éléments de mobilier, le journal, la figure et les mots puisque le travail est aussi une sorte d’encyclopédie personnelle. À l’origine, Mark Manders vient de l’écriture et son travail apparaît comme une sorte de récit continu entrepris en 1986 sous le nom de Self-portrait as a building, un autoportrait mis à distance dans un monde parallèle. Les œuvres sont mises en forme lentement et peuvent être reprises. Tout au long de ces années, Mark Manders a constitué un vocabulaire immédiatement identifiable où se côtoient murs en briques, cheminées d’usines, animaux, personnages, sachets de thé. Souvent plus petites que le réel qu’elles évoquent, ces œuvres interrogent tant la question de l’échelle que la tradition de la sculpture et la position de la figure humaine dans un univers énigmatique et fascinant. Les assemblages surprenants placent immédiatement le spectateur dans la position du rêveur éveillé qui entre dans un univers qui, bien que figuré, est entièrement mental.

More the collection of a curious wanderer than a serious hobbyist, the unidentified mushrooms are photographed against sterile white backgrounds as if recently plucked from the forest floor, with soil, bark and even small creatures still attached. The fungal portraits are interspersed with images of the forest itself, as if providing a natural context – a sense of actually being there – with surroundings of lichen covered trees, dense leafage, and the natural interplay of shadow and light.
