Sean Scully. Human. Ediz. A Colori

Resumen del Libro

A monograph dedicated to the great Irish-American artist and to Human, his new exhibition project for San Giorgio Maggiore Abbey in Venice."My work is an attempt to release the spirit"Sean ScullyPublished on the occasion of the exhibition in the historic church of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice, the volume gathers recent works and new, unseen pieces by the celebrated abstract artist who has created a series of new sculptures, paintings, drawings, and watercolour works directly inspired by the monks' Abbey of San Giorgio Maggiore, by their vast illuminated manuscript collections and by the 16th-century Benedictine church. Works instantly recognisable by Scully's visual vocabulary of horizontal and vertical stripes, which reflects fifty years of constant refining.The fulcrum of the catalogue is the new and impressive Opulent Ascension, a site-specific sculpture over ten meters high, constructed from stacked frames, each wrapped in rich and varying colours of felt: the different colours visually suggest the steps of a monumental, ascending ladder leading the eye and spirit heavenwards and revealing the genius of the artist, always able to surprise us with new stylistic formulas and symbolic references. A soaring, charismatic work that catalyses the observer, leading him to the fulcrum of the artist's creative idea and which embodies Scully's conviction that his work can serve as a conduit between the physical world we can see and a transcendent one to which the soul aspires.

No exit

Luis Cruz Azaceta: No Exit is the first substantial overview of the work of the Cuban-American artist Luis Cruz Azaceta (born 1942). Azaceta's childhood memories in Cuba (where he remained until he was 18 years old) mix with his first professional experiences in New York City (where he studied at the School of Visual Arts and where he lived for three decades) and those of his period of professional maturity in New Orleans. Azaceta's brightly polychromatic painting explores "an aesthetics of constant escapes," as Iván de la Nuez put it. His imaginary, revealed in works that range between...
