Blending the reflected cultural climate of his adopted home, Los Angeles, with the multi-layered world of American popular culture, Jim Shaw creates rich dreamlike worlds within distinct bodies of work. Addressing, for the first time, how the artist's oeuvre inter-relates, this substantial monograph argues that the artist's seemingly disparate series actually function together to present a lucid and insightful portrait of America today. Emerging out of the long West Coast shadows of California Assemblage by way of LA Pop and Conceptualism, Shaw's narrative-driven art marries art history and contemporary existence, as well as literature and comic books, ancient myths and modern movies, science and its variations in popular psychology'not only blurring the boundaries between art and life, but also cultivating that confusion to consider the relationship between fact and fiction that seems to define so much of the world we inhabit today. Giving contemporary viewers an effective way to think about art, this publication is an invaluable resource for those interested in painting today and its interaction with modern life. 吉姆·肖将他收养的家乡洛杉矶的文化氛围与美国流行文化的多层次世界融合在一起,在不同的作品中创造了丰富的梦幻世界。这本*著首次探讨了这位艺术家的作品之间的相互关系,认为这位艺术家看似不同的系列实际上共同作用,呈现了一幅清晰而富有洞察力的当代美国图景。通过洛杉矶流行音乐和概念主义,肖的叙事驱动艺术从加州集会的漫长西海岸阴影中脱颖而出,融合了艺术历史和当代存在,以及文学和漫画书、古代神话和现代电影、科学及其在流行心理学中的变化,不仅模糊了艺术和生活之间的界限,但也培养了这种困惑,以考虑事实和虚构之间的关系,而事实和虚构似乎定义了我们今天生活的世界。本出版物为当代观众提供了一种有效的思考艺术的方式,对于那些对当今绘画及其与现代生活互动感兴趣的人来说,它是一种宝贵的资源。画册画集摄影集.jpg原版图书.jpg出版社:LundHumphriesPubLtd(2020年1月10日) 出版日期:2020年1月10日 语言:英语 精装:144页 ISBN-10:1848223285 ISBN-13:978-1848223288 尺寸:24.13x1.78x28.58cm
