The Metropolitan Museum of Art The Art of the Literary Poster The Metropolitan Museum of Art The Art of the Literary Poster 57.95 USD A Met Museum publication is the perfect gift for art lovers. By Allison Rudnick with essays by Jennifer A. Greenhill, Rachel Mustalish, and Shannon Vittoria Spurred by innovations in printing technology, the modern poster emerged in the 1890s as a popular form of visual culture in the United States. Created by some of the best-known illustrators and graphic designers of the period - including Will H. Bradley, Florence Lundborg, Edward Penfield, and Ethel Reed - these advertisements for books and high-tone periodicals such as Harper's and Lippincott's went beyond the realm of commercial art, incorporating bold, stylized imagery and striking typography. This book, based on the renowned Leonard A. Lauder Collection, explores the craze for literary posters, which became sought after collectibles even in their day. It offers new scholarly perspectives that address the aesthetic sophistication and modernity of the literary poster; the impact of early experiments in the field of advertising psychology; the expanded opportunities for women artists, who played an important role in advancing the so- called poster style; and the printmaking techniques that artists employed in this novel art form. A lively survey of a little-known but highly influential period in graphic design, The Art of the Literary Poster is sure to delight enthusiasts of illustration, advertising, and book arts.

Greenhill is Endowed Professor of American Art at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.

Here are vivid personal accounts, a savvy, in-depth survey of female sexuality resources, and the bold and explicit illustrations of San Francisco artist Fish. The Clitoral Truth surveys the numerous ways that women have begun to transform the deeply entrenched male-centered model of sexuality to actively redefine it by emphasizing full-body pleasure.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Louise Bourgeois: Paintings The Metropolitan Museum of Art Louise Bourgeois: Paintings 52.95 USD Clare Davies and Briony Fer Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) is celebrated today for her sculptures. Less known are the paintings she produced between her arrival in New York in 1938 and her turn to three-dimensional media in 1949. Crucial to her artistic practice, these early works-the focus of this groundbreaking publication-show how Bourgeois evolved her deeply personal artistic lexicon, and how the themes and motifs she explored in her paintings coalesced into symbols of her sculptural practice. Informed by new archival research and the artist's extensive diaries, Louise Bourgeois: Paintings explores Bourgeois's relationship to the New York art world of the 1940s and her development of a unique pictorial language, adding a key element to our understanding of this crucial artist's career. This catalogue is one of the New York Times' Best Art Books of 2022. Clare Davies is Associate Curator in the Department of Modern and Contemporary Art at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Briony Fer is Professor of the History of Art, University College, London.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art Caspar David Friedrich: The Soul of Nature The Metropolitan Museum of Art Caspar David Friedrich: The Soul of Nature 57.95 USD Met Museum publications make the perfect gifts for art lovers. By Alison Hokanson and Joanna Sheers Seidenstein with essays by Joseph Leo Koerner and Cordula Grewe The paintings and drawings of the nineteenth-century German landscape painter Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840) brilliantly illuminate our experience of the natural world. This generously illustrated volume explores how Friedrich, who created some of the most indelible images of Romantic art, deployed signature motifs-moonlit skies, Gothic ruins, isolated figures, and misty panoramas-together with innovative compositional strategies to create paintings and drawings that are metaphorically rich and emotionally profound. Friedrich worked at the dawn of a new understanding in Europe of the human relationship with the nature, as German artists and intellectuals elevated the exploration of nature into a journey of self-discovery, yielding insights into spirituality, mortality, identity, and history. Essays by leading scholars examine Friedrich's career, considering how he created a new and open-ended pictorial language to express the Romantic vision of nature. Placing his works in cultural and historic context, the authors evaluate his status as an icon of German Romanticism and as a touchstone for visual culture in the United States, while also exploring his working methods and the complex themes that underpinned his art. Alison Hokanson is curator in the Department of European Paintings at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Joanna Sheers Seidenstein is assistant curator in the Department of Drawings and Prints at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art Beyond the Light: Identity and Place in Nineteenth-Century Danish Art The Metropolitan Museum of Art Beyond the Light: Identity and Place in Nineteenth-Century Danish Art 57.95 USD Edited by Freyda Spira, Stephanie Schrader, and Thomas Lederballe With contributions by Gry Hedin and Karina Lykke Grand Though known as the Danish Golden Age, nineteenth-century Denmark was one of the most tumultuous periods in the nation's history-from the disastrous siege of Copenhagen and the collapse of Denmark's monarchy to the swelling tide of nationalism that eventually engulfed all of Europe. This volume places artists at the center of Denmark's dramatic cultural, political, and philosophical transformation by bringing together 90 drawings, paintings, and oil sketches by Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg, Christen KØbke, Constantin Hansen, Martinus RØrbye, Johan Thomas Lundbye, Vilhelm HammershØi, and others. Five thematic essays by leading scholars in Denmark and the United States explore the way Danish artists manifested the pride, traditions, and anxieties of their nation; the sea's ever-changing role as a marker of Danish identity; the evolving nature of portraiture; nostalgia for the Danish landscape and folk traditions; and the influence on Danish artists of their travels throughout Europe. Freyda Spira is Robert L. Solley Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Yale University Art Gallery. Stephanie Schrader is curator of drawings at J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles. Thomas Lederballe is chief curator and senior researcher at the Statens Museum for Kunst, Copenhagen.
