中文简介:
虽然爱德华·蒙克(Edvard Munch)悲观忧郁的世界观在很大程度上决定了我们对他作品的理解,但许多重要的战后和当代艺术家都从他作品的几个方面获得了灵感。这本图文并茂的书探讨了九位这样的艺术家:弗朗西斯·培根、乔治·巴塞利茨、路易丝·布尔乔亚、米里亚姆·卡恩、彼得·多伊格、玛琳·杜马斯、特蕾西·艾明、贾斯帕·约翰斯和安迪·沃霍尔,分析他们是如何在职业生涯的不同阶段或整个过程中接触蒙克的作品。本书精心复制了蒙克的60件作品,并与受他启发的作品并列。
读者会在本书中发现巴塞利茨是如何巧妙地向他的艺术英雄致敬的;特蕾西·艾明的实践与蒙克的一样,都是自传性的,他们都从个人的痛苦中汲取营养,创作出令人不安的作品;玛琳·杜马是如何被蒙克的肖像画的表现力所吸引。露易丝·布尔乔亚的作品如何说明蒙克对恐惧和孤独的执着;弗朗西斯·培根如何以蒙克的知名画作为蓝本创作《尖叫的教皇》;以及彼得·多伊格如何借鉴蒙克对颜料和物质的激进处理。由知名学者撰写的文章详细介绍了每位艺术家对蒙克的独特关注,并重点探讨了女性艺术家如何从蒙克对孤独、恐惧和创伤的研究中获得灵感。
英文简介:
While Munch's pessimistic, melancholy world view crucially defines our understanding of his work, many important postwar and contemporary artists have drawn inspiration from several aspects of his oeuvre. This richly illustrated book explores how nine such artists-Francis Bacon, Georg Baselitz, Louise Bourgeois, Miriam Cahn, Peter Doig, Marlene Dumas, Tracey Emin, Jasper Johns and Andy Warhol-engaged with Munch's work at different points in, or throughout, their careers. It features elaborate reproductions of sixty works by Munch juxtaposed with those inspired by him.
Readers discover how Baselitz cunningly pays tribute to his artistic hero how Tracey Emin's practice, like Munch's, is autobiographical, both drawing from their personal torment to create their unnerving works ; how Marlene Dumas was drawn to the expressiveness of Munch's portraits; how Louise Bourgeois' works are illustrative of Munch's fixation on fear and isolation; how Francis Bacon modelled "Screaming Pope" after Munch's most renowned painting; and how Peter Doig draws on Munch's radical treatment of pigments and materiality. Essays by leading scholars detail each artist's unique preoccupation with Munch and offer a focused exploration of the ways women artists in particular were inspired by his examinations of loneliness, fear, and trauma.
