She was a French-American sculptor, painter, and filmmaker. She was one of the few women artists widely known for monumental sculpture.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"> She had a difficult and traumatic childhood and education, which she wrote about decades later. After an early marriage and two children, she began creating art in a naïve, experimental style. She first received world-wide attention for angry, violent assemblages which had been shot by firearms. These evolved into <i>Nanas</i>, light-hearted, whimsical, colorful, large-scale sculptures of animals, monsters, and female figures. Her most comprehensive work was the <i>Tarot Garden</i>, a large sculpture garden containing numerous works ranging up to house-sized creations. Her idiosyncratic style has been called "outsider art"; she had no formal training in art, but associated freely with many other contemporary artists, writers, and composers.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"> Throughout her creative career, she collaborated with other well-known artists such as Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Larry Rivers, composer John Cage, and architect Mario Botta, as well as dozens of less-known artists and craftspersons. For several decades, she worked especially closely with Swiss kinetic artist Jean Tinguely, who also became her second husband. In her later years, she suffered from multiple chronic health problems attributed to repeated exposure to glass fibers and petrochemical fumes from the experimental materials she had used in her pioneering artworks, but she continued to create prolifically until the end of her life. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niki_de_Saint_Phalle">Read more...</a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

He studied at the Academie Jullian, where he met Vuillard, Maurice Denis, K. X. Roussel, and Serusier, with whom he participated in the Nabis. As a young student he was influenced by Degas, Renoir, Van Gogh, and Toulouse-Lautrec, and developed a great interest in Japanese prints. In 1891 he exhibited for the first time at the Salon des Independants and in group shows with the Nabis. Five years later he had his first one-man show of paintings, posters, and lithographs at Durand-Ruel's. During this period his lithographs appeared in the Revue Blanche and L'Escarmouche, as well as in a portfolio called Quelques Aspects de la Vie de Paris which Vollard published in 1895. He also worked on sets, costumes, and posters for the Theatre de l'CEuvre and the Theatre des Pantins and modeled marionettes for a play with music by his brother-in-law, Claude Terrasse. In 1900 Ambroise Vollard commissioned him to illustrate with lithographs Parellilement and Daphnis et Chloi. Both are masterpieces of graphic art. In 1903 Bonnard exhibited in the first Salon d'Automne and in the Viennese Secession show and subsequently participated in many important exhibitions in Europe and America. He also had a number of one-man shows in Paris, London, New York, and other cities. His style, at first decorative and subdued in color, became much freer and brighter after 1900. Transposing the universe into colors, he painted landscapes, still lifes, and nudes transfigured by a shining light. Revolting against the fashions and theories of his contemporaries, Bonnard went his own way. He was an extremely modest man and very hard on himself, but his work is characterized by a charming ever-youthful, good-natured cheerfulness and by an increasing audacity of color harmonies. In 1912 he bought a house at Vernnet, in the Seine Valley, not far from Paris, and subsequently divided his time between there and the south of France. He died in 1947 in his house in Le Cannet on the Cote d'Azur.</div><div><br /></div>Kathy Grimmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18295696077498829657noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5904185169915698420.post-81245590278720666422021-06-22T00:24:00.000-07:002021-06-22T00:24:02.263-07:00"Sunflowers" by Van Gogh<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguCdXq2xnH1VXuUoqz9LGXf4mvtxcI1nzTFE9n7qj4CPUQ2M3fEbqXuds3KhEBAjdq6Sud9zfS1rsxqUzitKyauyUP7XTok0dTItYCsXLeu6HWvU3oUcuK5RsuoTnAt-7e5qGsU51PgmA/s664/SunflowersbyVanGoghgrimm2017.png" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="664" data-original-width="432" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguCdXq2xnH1VXuUoqz9LGXf4mvtxcI1nzTFE9n7qj4CPUQ2M3fEbqXuds3KhEBAjdq6Sud9zfS1rsxqUzitKyauyUP7XTok0dTItYCsXLeu6HWvU3oUcuK5RsuoTnAt-7e5qGsU51PgmA/w416-h640/SunflowersbyVanGoghgrimm2017.png" width="416" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">"Sunflowers" by Vincent Van Gogh</span></span></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><p><span style="text-align: justify;"> Born into an upper-middle-class family, Van Gogh drew as a child and was serious, quiet and thoughtful. As a young man he worked as an art dealer, often travelling, but became depressed after he was transferred to London. He turned to religion, and spent time as a Protestant missionary in southern Belgium. He drifted in ill health and solitude before taking up painting in 1881, having moved back home with his parents. His younger brother Theo supported him financially, and the two kept up a long correspondence by letter. His early works, mostly still lifes and depictions of peasant labourers, contain few signs of the vivid color that distinguished his later work. In 1886, he moved to Paris, where he met members of the </span><i style="text-align: justify;">avant-garde</i><span style="text-align: justify;">, including Émile Bernard and Paul Gauguin, who were reacting against the Impressionist sensibility. As his work developed he created a new approach to still lifes and local landscapes. His paintings grew brighter in colour as he developed a style that became fully realised during his stay in Arles in the south of France in 1888. During this period he broadened his subject matter to include olive trees, cypresses, wheat fields and sunflowers.</span> </p>Kathy Grimmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18295696077498829657noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5904185169915698420.post-5895012918911022372021-06-22T00:23:00.000-07:002021-06-22T00:23:10.112-07:00"Egyptian Girl" by Alexej Jawlensky<p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlXcQQCWl_Wavf5KplYLQYZxE6PXsjLSWQ60waMlqrdXIRxr1NnHZeeXF9ei7WT27-ZVuDC4UeKFMDAUyhUctJ-xaOEWo8wWHssdxpkXHJnNH_lJiagd_ENI52bDCre2O2CleOuevTCX8/s679/JawlenskyEgyptianGirlgrimm2017.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="679" data-original-width="593" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlXcQQCWl_Wavf5KplYLQYZxE6PXsjLSWQ60waMlqrdXIRxr1NnHZeeXF9ei7WT27-ZVuDC4UeKFMDAUyhUctJ-xaOEWo8wWHssdxpkXHJnNH_lJiagd_ENI52bDCre2O2CleOuevTCX8/s16000/JawlenskyEgyptianGirlgrimm2017.png" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">"Egyptian Girl" by Alexej Jawlensky.<br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /></p><p><span style="text-align: justify;"> Alexej Georgewitsch von Jawlensky was born on 13 March 1864 and died on the 15th of March 1941.

During the past four decades, Neri has worked primarily with the same model, Mary Julia, creating drawings and sculptures that merge contemporary sculptural concerns with classical forms. </span><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manuel_Neri" style="text-align: justify;">Read more...</a></p>Kathy Grimmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18295696077498829657noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5904185169915698420.post-36215008770580046112021-06-22T00:21:00.001-07:002024-02-10T07:36:12.028-08:00"Girl in Yellow" by Moses Soyer<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6CEl_JtD-oEJj_IpnpmAiReapVxaheiqjK2607PC7Fp8qfjAGXC7zLQgF_Dcamwd_z8L_WuMD41lMTl-l2VJTpRCaH65-QyRtviVdRt9gRfaTBNHVAY7q3HWc2Dj8x4XU68K8xO1VEas/s663/MosesSoyergirlinyellowgrimm2017.png" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="663" data-original-width="422" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6CEl_JtD-oEJj_IpnpmAiReapVxaheiqjK2607PC7Fp8qfjAGXC7zLQgF_Dcamwd_z8L_WuMD41lMTl-l2VJTpRCaH65-QyRtviVdRt9gRfaTBNHVAY7q3HWc2Dj8x4XU68K8xO1VEas/w408-h640/MosesSoyergirlinyellowgrimm2017.png" width="408" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: normal;"><span face=""Trebuchet MS", Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-size: medium;"><i>"Girl in Yellow" by Moses Soyer. </i></span></span></td></tr></tbody></table><p><span style="text-align: justify;"> Moses Soyer (December 25, 1899 – September 3, 1974) was an American social realist painter.

He was a Swiss-German artist. His highly individual style was influenced by movements in art that included Expressionism, Cubism, and Surrealism. Klee was a natural draftsman who experimented with and eventually deeply explored color theory, writing about it extensively; his lectures </span><i style="text-align: justify;">Writings on Form and Design Theory</i><span style="text-align: justify;"> (</span><i style="text-align: justify;">Schriften zur Form und Gestaltungslehre</i><span style="text-align: justify;">), published in English as the </span><i style="text-align: justify;">Paul Klee Notebooks</i><span style="text-align: justify;">, are held to be as important for modern art as Leonardo da Vinci's </span><i style="text-align: justify;">A Treatise on Painting</i><span style="text-align: justify;"> for the Renaissance. He and his colleague, Russian painter Wassily Kandinsky, both taught at the Bauhaus school of art, design and architecture. His works reflect his dry humor and his sometimes childlike perspective, his personal moods and beliefs, and his musicality.</span></p>Kathy Grimmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18295696077498829657noreply@blogger.com0
