Nat Tate

The infamous literary hoax that fooled the art worldOn January 8 1960, artist Nat Tate set out to burn his entire life's work. Four days later he jumped off a Staten Island ferry, killing himself. His body was never found. When William Boyd published his biography of Abstract Expressionist Nat Tate, tributes poured in from a whole host of artists and critics in the New York art world. They toasted the troubled genius in a Manhattan launch party attended by David Bowie and Gore Vidal. But Nat Tate never existed. The book was a hoax. Will Boyd's biography of a fake artist is a brilliant probe into the politics of authenticity and reputation in the modern art scene. It is a playful and intelligent insight into the fascinating, often cryptic world of modern art.

Franz Marc. Memo

Franz Marc, der am liebsten Tiere in leuchtenden Farben gemalt hat, ist bei kleinen und großen Kunstfreunden sehr beliebt. Mit seinen Darstellungen von Rehen, Tigern, Katzen, Eseln und Affen, aber besonders von Pferden, ging er als herausragender Expressionist in die Kunstgeschichtsschreibung ein und wurde zu einem der bekanntesten Maler des 20. Jahrhunderts.Die 36 ausdrucksstarken Motive des Memos führen in die lebhafte Welt Franz Marcs ein und zeigen zum einen Details aus seinen berühmten Tierdarstellungen wie "Blaues Pferd I", "Der Traum", "Katze auf gelbem Kissen", "Der Tiger" und "Die gelbe Kuh". Aber auch weniger bekannte Werke, so "Die verzauberte Mühle" oder die "Zwei Frauen am Berg", können in diesem Spiel entdeckt werden. Diese Suche nach den zwei Gleichen sorgt für Vergnügen und lädt zudem dazu ein, sich auch über das Spiel hinaus mit dem vielfältigen Spektrum expressionistischer Malerei zu befassen.

Emil Nolde. Das Meer/The Sea (dt./engl.)

Der große Expressionist Emil Nolde (1867-1956) war ein bahnbrechender Virtuose der Aquarellmalerei: Selbstbewusst setzte er Farben in nie dagewesener Intensität auf Papier und schuf damit Bildwelten, deren Lichtfülle bis zum heutigen Tag vor Leben sprüht.Das Meer ist ein wichtiges Thema in seiner Kunst. Der Kunsthistoriker Max Sauerlandt schreibt 1921: Nolde sieht das Meer »nicht vom Strande oder vom Schiffe aus, er sieht es so, wie es in sich selbst lebt, losgelöst aus jedem Bezug auf den Menschen, als das ewig regsame, ewig wechselvolle, ganz in sich selbst sich auslebende, in sich selbst sich erschöpfende göttliche Urwesen, das bis heute noch die ungebändigte Freiheit des ersten Schöpfungstages sich bewahrt hat«.Die Meeresaquarelle entstehen ab etwa 1920, als Nolde das Medium bereits in Perfektion beherrscht. Rund dreißig der schönsten Blätter, viele davon bislang unveröffentlicht, sind in diesem Geschenkbuch versammelt.

Miquel Barceló

The recent atmospheric paintings of one of the most important representatives of contemporary Spanish art, inspired by the seascapes of his native Majorca. Miquel Barceló is a contemporary Spanish artist known for his experimental approach to painting and sculpture. Whether utilizing bleach, organic matter, or even live insects, Barceló's Neo-Expressionist oeuvre explores decomposition, light, and the natural landscape. Born in 1957 in Majorca, Spain, he credits the influence of Lucio Fontana. His work is both abstract and cerebral, as evidenced by his broad range of paintings, ceramics, and installations. In 2011 Barceló exhibited his sculpture in New York's Union Square. The artist, who is currently living and working in Paris and Majorca, has works in the collections of the Guggenheim Bilbao, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Reina Sofia National Museum in Madrid, among others.

The Night of the Hunter (eBook, ePUB)

The bestselling, National Book Award-finalist novel that inspired Charles Laughton's expressionist horror classic starring Robert Mitchum and Shelley Winters. Two young children, Pearl and John Harper, are being raised alone by their mother in Cresap's Landing, Ohio. Their father Ben has just been executed for killing two men in the course of an armed robbery. Ben never told anyone where he hid the ten thousand dollars he stole; not his widow Willa, not his lawyer, nor his cell-mate Henry "Preacher" Powell. But Preacher, with his long history of charming his way into widows' hearts and lives, has an inkling that Ben's money could be within his reach. As soon as he is free, Preacher makes his way up the river to visit the Harper family where-he hopes-a little child shall lead him to the fortune that he seeks. Foreword by JULIA KELLER

The Painter: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 685min

Peter Heller, the celebrated author of the breakout best seller The Dog Stars, returns with an achingly beautiful, wildly suspenseful second novel about an artist trying to outrun his past. Jim Stegner has seen his share of violence and loss. Years ago he shot a man in a bar. His marriage disintegrated. He grieved the one thing he loved. In the wake of tragedy, Jim, a well-known expressionist painter, abandoned the art scene of Santa Fe to start fresh in the valleys of rural Colorado. Now he spends his days painting and fly-fishing, trying to find a way to live with the dark impulses that sometimes overtake him. He works with a lovely model. His paintings fetch excellent prices. But one afternoon, on a dirt road, Jim comes across a man beating a small horse, and a brutal encounter rips his quiet life wide open. Fleeing Colorado, chased by men set on retribution, Jim returns to New Mexico, tormented by his own relentless conscience. A stunning, savage novel of art and violence, love and grief, The Painter is the story of a man who longs to transcend the shadows in his heart, a man intent on using the losses he has suffered to create a meaningful life. ungekürzt.

Anish Kapoor: Between Painting and Sculpture: Cv/Visual Arts Research, Book 232, Hörbuch, Digital, 16min

A recorded visit to an exhibition by Anish Kapoor at the Lisson Gallery, London continued to 22nd June, 2019. Includes descriptions of works and bio-dara of the artist. In the rear ground floor space of the gallery a suite of new paintings, completed at the end of 2018. Each canvas is 274 cms tall by 213 cms wide. The colour range is restricted and highly pitched, a distinctly abstract expressionist handling with sweeping brush and hand work. An aggressive and confrontational approach infuses a violently striated surface. A basic pink shape, in some like sagging flesh or an upturned vessel is worked with smeared white strokes, then corrupted by slashed veins of blood red and pitch black, scarring the lower part of the canvases. The hand work introduces an element of unleashed energy on the white ground, in a scheme of unleashed emotion. It is violently expressive, chaotic and turbulent. The painting ‘Teeth’ 2018 resembles a tip tilted jug spewing corrupted matter. These recent paintings progress of the artist’s constant preoccupation with the life force of the body. Previously viewed in the giant ‘Leviathan’; a maroon inflatable of spectacular dimension installed in Monumenta 2011 at the Grand Palais Paris. Here visitors walked inside the heart shaped cavern, encountering receding passages of valves and vents. Kapoor has never resisted dynamic scale for maximum resonance of effect. Language: English. Narrator: Christopher Selbie. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/155581/bk_acx0_155581_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
