Winslow Homer
by Winslow Homer
This book examines the immensity of Homer's artistic accomplishments, focusing not only on his masterpieces in various media but also on the suites of works on the same subject that reflect the artist's essentially modern practice of thinking and working serially and thematically. The book discusses and reproduces more than two hundred paintings, watercolors, and drawings that span Homer's career, all of which are discussed in entries by Cikovsky and Kelly.
Gustave Moreau
by Genevieve Lacambre
The French artist Gustave Moreau (1826-1898) was among the painters who paved the way for modern art. The teacher of Matisse and Rouault, Moreau created in his work a world of glittering illusion and mystery. His complex, decorative style united a passion for mythology and mysticism with exquisite craftsmanship, and inspired a generation of Symbolist painters and writers, among them Proust, Mallarme, and the English Pre-Raphaelites. Genevieve Lacambre, curator of the Gustave Moreau Museum, Paris, explores Moreau's life and leads a tour of the museum that, created by the artist himself, holds all his secrets.
Out of My Mind
by Kristin Nelson Tinker
Born in 1945 into a Hollywood family of "competition, achievement, and celebrity," Kristin Nelson Tinker began to paint in her distinctive American primitive style when she was in her teens. Out of My Mind, her first book, brings together more than 100 of her autobiographical paintings to tell in words and images the story of her life. The daughter of legendary football hero Tom Harmon and actress Elyse Knox, Tinker married musician, actor, and rock idol Ricky Nelson when she was 17 and found herself a single mother of four children in her mid-30s. Her journey through the decades of postwar America is one that will resonate powerfully with readers.Throughout Tinker's life she has recorded personal events and experiences on canvas, capturing 35 years of American dreams: weddings and birthdays; Halloween and Christmas; the hippie idylls of the 1970s and Los Angeles street scenes; antiquing on Martha's Vineyard and ice skating in New York; rock concerts, football games, and backyard basketball; barbecues on the beach and fireworks bursting over the water. Her family history and Tinker's own story of growth, emotional crisis, and recovery, including her increasingly strong belief in herself as an artist, is complemented here by her journal entries and poetry as well as pertinent and moving selections from contemporary songs and verse.Kristin Nelson Tinker had her first solo exhibition in 1967, and her paintings have been widely collected and commissioned since that time. Married to producer/director Mark Tinker, she divides her time between the East and West coasts. Out of My Mind is an extraordinary document of the search for emotional truth in a time of revolutionary change.
