Описание: This stunning volume presents the result of a major undertaking by photographer Niels Lehmann and researcher Christoph Rauhut: to document all the remaining Expressionist buildings in Berlin. Expressionism powerfully heralded the onset of the twenties, and nowhere was it more important or powerful than in Berlin. The buildings that remain demonstrate great creativity with form and skillful use of light, color, and material, highlighting verticality and drama--the essence of the modern metropolis. Lehmann's new photographs are here set alongside drawings, an illustrated index of buildings, and maps that help the reader group the buildings by area. Simultaneously a celebration of a lost period and a reminder of the riches it has left to us, Fragments of Metropolis: Berlin is a stunning achievement of historical and artistic preservation.
Описание: Life is always, every moment, without fail, offering opportunities for love, companionship, beauty, connection and joy. Life is simultaneously offering opportunities for less desirable things. Every moment we get to choose. Where we put our attention determines our experience of the world. If you are not seeing something you like that is available... keep looking. Joy is available! My experience of this comes from caring for my dear friend, Carl, in the context of his Alzheimer's. If you want to have a great life, commit yourself to giving someone else a great life. You must have a great life yourself in order to make a great life possible for someone else. After seven years of caring for Carl, his life is now complete. With laughter and love until the day of leaving his body, the lessons of Carl's life remain for all of us. Have a lot of love... have a lot of fun! -- David Lazaroff

Описание:
The Expressionist Figure documents a collection amassed over more than 60 years and recently gifted to the Walker, which includes some 80 superlative works on paper that focus on the figure. Dating from 1900 to 2018, the drawings span more than a century of artistic experimentation in the US and Europe and were executed in mediums ranging from graphite, ink and crayon to pastel, gouache and collage. Among the artists represented are Milton Avery, Max Beckmann, Christo, Chuck Close, Edgar Degas, Willem de Kooning, Otto Dix, Marlene Dumas, Arshile Gorky, David Hockney, Jasper Johns, William Kentridge, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Paul Klee, Gustav Klimt, Ren Magritte, Henri Matisse, Joan Mir , Claes Oldenburg, Pablo Picasso, Sigmar Polke, Egon Schiele, Ben Shahn, Zak Smith and Andy Warhol. Published on the occasion of the first exhibition of this collection, this luxurious volume includes full-page color reproductions of each drawing along with a catalog entry detailing the history of each object. Also included are an essay by the collector on his passion for drawing, and curator Joan Rothfuss' deeply researched short essays on 14 individual works. Both beautiful and substantive, The Expressionist Figure is a testament to the pleasure of building a collection and the rewards of sharing it.
