Full textExpressionism, considered like one of the most esthetic advanced of the 20th century, is related to an artistic creation conception like the person building, individuation mode. And, taking the opposite of usuals definiton critarials, Nice and Shape, this singular esthetic born in a difficult particular context, represent a real catalyzer for the art of the bigginning of the 20th century and the whole comtemporain esthetic thinking. Sure enough, expressionism induct a whole transformation of the representative mode of art, the one of the human subject face and his relation with world, thus giving a new anthropolical dimension to art. So this indicate an approach of art which permit to set or resolve the question of an human ethic, imcompatible to the essentialists definitions. Thus, this esthetic appears like first a categorical reject of a social, cultural and politcal reality particulary difficult, but which seems at the same time build his temperament and determine his orientations. The appearance of primitivisme is as this respect emblematic. This primitivism which appears like an acceptation, like a recongnition, like an altirity almost radical, seeks of identity and senses, affecting expressionism and comtemporain art in their conception of art and life. Consequently, this special impulsion of previtivism represent one of the most manifestations of the esthetic revolution of the 20th Century but also, fact that expressionism the melting pot of an art conception and human out of stand out and rules

A proposta deste trabalho é observar como foi construída a Buenos Aires ficcional de Roberto Arlt no texto Los siete locos e Los lanzallamas, e através das características da cidade que emerge da narrativa, verificar de que maneira o texto arltiano dialoga com o expressionismo alemão. Serão capturados alguns traços característicos do expressionismo, em especial da pintura expressionista, para reconhecê-los na escritura arltiana. Acredito que o espaço nos romances de Arlt, relacionado à modernidade e à urbanização como fator negativo, também pode ser encontrado no expressionismo alemão numa releitura que coloca em diálogo as inquietações de alguns artistas alemães com as do escritor argentino.

Full textLe mouvement expressionniste viennois (1909-1913) recouvre des courantsparallèles dans les disciplines picturales et musicales. Les idées provenant des milieuxintellectuels du fin-de-siècle viennois ont inspiré le réveil de l'artiste moderne, depuis leUr-schrei jusqu'à la formulation d'une nouvelle théorie esthétique. Ce mémoire examinel'origine des valeurs esthétiques chères au mouvement expressionniste, ainsi que lestechniques utilisées pour exprimer ces valeurs dans les oeuvres d'Arnold Schoenberg,d'Egon Schiele, d'Oskar Kokoschka, et de Wassily Kandinsky. Les thèmes abordés sontdivisés en deux grandes catégories dont les fondements centraux émanent depréoccupations reliées, d'une part, à une compréhension croissante de l'inconscient et dela psychopathologie, et, d'autre part, aux aspects métaphysiques de l'art et de l'existencehumaine: la maladie et la spiritualité. Bien qu'il ne soit pas possible de comparerdirectement des oeuvres picturales et musicales, l'existence de principes et de thèmescommuns entraîne une confluence conceptuelle qui unifie ces disciplines dans laréalisation d'une vision artistique collective.

Goodhue, Laura. "Creative Expression: An Imminent Clash as Experienced by Three Artists." Thesis, Boston College, 2005. http://hdl.handle.net/2345/4427.
Full textThe Nazis arranged an exhibition of "degenerate" art (Entartete Kunst), shown in Munich in 1937 to insult and degrade artists who are recognized today as some of the most talented artists of the twentieth century. The success of the exhibition affected each artist in a different manner. Many fled Germany and ventured to the United States while others unwilling to leave their homeland suppressed their creative impulses for a life of fear and psychological torture in Germany. The horrific and irreversible effects on the German artists and culture can only be adequately discussed in the context of the time period preceding the exhibition. The movement toward abstraction and expression in art clashed with the rise of Nazi aesthetics to culminate in the exhibition of "degenerate" art. The lives of three artists Ernst Barlach, Max Beckmann and Oskar Schlemmer are detailed in this paper

Full textPh.D.
As a woman whose career lifted off during the era of Abstract Expressionism, Elaine de Kooning is precariously positioned between her gender and her career. She began painting in the midst of a male-dominated movement and in later years continued to use very masculine themes in her art; however, her gender sets her apart from her mostly male colleagues during the Abstract Expressionist period. The mid-century expectation of machismo and masculinity shaped Elaine de Kooning’s art and career, and there is a tension within her art as she tried to fit the established (male) persona of the typical Abstract Expressionist artist while also maintaining a female identity. As the wife of Willem de Kooning, Elaine is most often discussed with respect to this relationship. Her name is infrequently mentioned in scholarship without reference to Willem, and her contribution to art history has only recently been studied in any length in Jane Bledsoe’s Elaine de Kooning (1992) and in a series of smaller gallery publications. Furthermore, Elaine has become recognized and respected, in some cases, more for her critical writings for Art News during the 1950s and 1960s than for her art. She was an artist turned art critic, and this crossover has further complicated the scholarly attention devoted to her. Elaine consistently revisited male-inspired subject matter: in her portraiture she painted predominantly male sitters; in her cave painting-inspired work she reflected a society of primitive male hunters; in her series of sports paintings she depicted male basketball and baseball players in dynamic postures; in her Bacchus series she investigated a male god and the vitality of the statue’s writhing male musculature; and in her bull and bison series she worked with the clichéd animalistic symbol of masculine strength and virility. These subjects, combined with the ejaculatory style of Abstract Expressionism’s loose brushwork and vibrant swirling colors, provide a unique contrast to the artist, herself, as a female personality.

Full textThe scope of this thesis is to give insight on the extensive, valuable and relatively unknown artwork of the singular painter Luis Claramunt (Barcelona 1951-Zarautz 2000). Such artwork has been analysed and classified after carrying out an investigation into the archives of the artist, which were transferred to MACBA (Museum of Contemporary Art of Barcelona) by the family when in 2012 the museum held an anthological exhibition. In this thesis it can also be found the testimonies of relevant people from the different circles of the artist. With such material the artwork has been classified into three stages and thirteen thematical series. Such series are sorted chronologically and contextualized with the international artistic panorama, which include drawings, photographs, press articles, critical writings of the time, as well as those of the artist himself. Along with the series, testimonies of relatives, friends and gallerists can also be found. The result yields a vast number of documents, a significant amount of which had never been published, from different origins, nature and format that allows the reader to perceive the unique world of the artist. Within this recompilation, it is compellingly interesting the study of the content and meaning of the artist's self-published books, the most intimate element of his artwork, developed during the latter stage of his life. The methodology used to present the artwork and the artist includes the classification of the artwork, research into the Luis Claramunt's life and analysis of form and content, this approach allows a unique interpretation of the tendencies followed by his pieces and presents it looking far its origins in the artist's particular logbook.

Full textThis thesis investigates the work of Morris Louis (1912-1962) in relation to ‘opticality’, a theory developed by the prominent American art critic Clement Greenberg. Between the late 1930s and 1950s, Greenberg developed a comprehensive argument concerning the opticality, or the optical illusion, of abstract painting. This theory influenced common approaches towards Abstract Expressionist painting during the 1940s and 1950s, culminating in Greenberg’s writing on ‘Colourfield’ painting in major texts of the 1960s such as ‘Louis and Noland’ (1960). Through research into the development of Morris Louis’ technique, including several of his major series as well as lesser known works, this thesis argues that our understanding of Louis’ work has been constricted by a narrow perception of the opticality of his 'stain' paintings, and explores Louis' technique in light of alternative interpretations of his work.
