Nicole Wittenberg - autor neuvedený

The highly anticipated first survey of the work of American painter Nicole WittenbergOver the past two decades, Nicole Wittenberg has developed an expressive body of work that includes paintings of landscapes, portraits, and erotica. Best known for her vibrant and energetic mark making, Wittenberg creates seemingly spontaneous images from studies and drawings – oftentimes from life – which she synthesizes into much larger paintings on canvas. Weaving together painterly gestures across subject matter – some published here for the first time – this debut monograph features essays by the art historian Suzanne Hudson, the curator Devon Zimmerman, and the contemporary painter David Salle, as well as an extended conversation between the artist and writer Jarrett Earnest.These texts create an insightful portrait of Wittenberg as an artist. Presented in a beautiful cloth case showcasing details of one of her floral compositions, this book explores the full range of Wittenberg’s artistic vision and represents the most significant publication of her work to date. The publication of the book coincides with two solo exhibitions of the artist’s work, at the Ogunquit Museum of American Art and the Center for Maine Contemporary Art.
