This little-known body of work is vast in scope?numbering some 1,200 individual compositions?and highly significant within her larger practice. These works encompass the same themes and motifs that occupied Bourgeois throughout her career, and they are explored here within the context of related sculptures, drawings and early paintings. This investigation sheds light on Bourgeois’ creative process overall, most vividly through the evolving print states and variants that led to her final compositions; seeing these sequences unfold is akin to looking over the artist’s shoulder as she worked.

L'oeuvre que Charlotte Salomon a laissée en héritage constitue, au sens littéral, sa pièce de résistance, « quelque chose de vraiment fou et singulier » selon ses propres termes. Ce cycle de gouaches dessine un autoportrait vivant embrassant toutes les facettes de son existence : son enfance et son adolescence à Berlin, ses études d'art à l'ombre du Troisième Reich, sa relation avec le professeur de chant Alfred Wolfsohn, son exil en France et la complexité de son histoire familiale, marquée par le suicide de presque toutes les représentantes féminines.

Asawa began her now iconic looped-wire works in the late 1940s while still a student at Black Mountain College. Their unique structure was inspired by a 1947 trip to Mexico, during which local craftsmen taught her how to create baskets out of wire. While seemingly unrelated to the lessons of color and composition taught in Josef Albers’ legendary Basic Design course, these works, as she explained, are firmly grounded in his teachings in their use of unexpected materials and their elision of figure and ground.

Summary:
Belgian artist and draughtswoman Hannelore Van Dijck produces minute and highly textured charcoal drawings that often cover entire surfaces, whether they be walls, floors, sheets of paper, or textiles. Although her drawings might seem abstract at first, they are essentially hyperrealistic. Often the differences she introduces are subtle and nuanced, and therein lies their power. They can be described as graphic interventions – small dashes, circular or geometric motifs, lines resembling wood grain, smudges – that appear natural in a way, and as such, become part of the architecture or environment. This artists’ book coincides with an exhibition of Van Dijck’s work at Be-Part in Belgium.

Et simultanément, il explore la singularité esthétique d’une œuvre qui interroge le pouvoir de la peinture, un pouvoir intimement lié à la sensation et l’émotion. L’art, selon Soulages, doit « rendre présent un rapport aux autres et au monde. L’œuvre renouvelle le regard, le change et nous change, et à travers les époques exerce un pouvoir sur celui qui regarde. […] Très tôt j’ai pratiqué une peinture qui abandonnait l’image, et que je n’ai jamais considérée comme un langage (au sens où le langage transmet une signification). Ni image, ni langage. »
