Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Arthur Dove, often credited as America s first abstract painter, created dynamic and evocative images inspired by his surroundings, from the farmland of upstate New York to the North Shore of Long Island. But his interests were not limited to nature. Challenging earlier accounts that view him as simply a landscape painter, 'Arthur Dove: Always Connect'reveals for the first time the artist s intense engagement with language, the nature of social interaction, and scientific and technological advances. Rachael Z. DeLue rejects the traditional assumption that Dove can only be understood in terms of his nature paintings and association with photographer and gallerist Alfred Stieglitz and his circle. Instead, she uncovers deep and complex connections between Dove s work and his world, including avant-garde literature, popular music, meteorology, mathematics, aviation, and World War II.'Arthur Dove'also offers the first sustained account of Dove s Dadaesque multimedia projects and the first explorations of his animal imagery and the role of humor in his art. Beautifully illustrated with works from all periods of Dove s career, this book presents a new vision of one of America s most innovative and captivating artists and reimagines how the story of modern art in the United States might be told.' This book takes on the American artist Arthur Dove's life in the studio, working away with the radio crackling, records playing, thermometers and barometers on the wall spiking and plunging, clocks ticking, telephones ringing. DeLue is particularly interested in Dove's later work--the art he produced starting in the 1920s--when he became fascinated with scientific and technological advances that were becoming commonplace. For example, sound technology was rapidly evolving in the shape of commercial radio broadcasting, talkies, records, and music itself. Dove was obsessed with the science, the materiality, of sound, and he used it as a tool in developing many paintings. Seller Inventory # 200077
