Synopsis
Artists and architects have long used sketches, notes, and sculptural models to explore or test new ideas and designs. But in the twentieth century, as Western art moved away from straightforward depictions of the natural world, models and prototypes began to evolve from preparatory steps in the creative process to, increasingly, autonomous artworks. "Models and Prototypes", the companion publication to the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum exhibition of the same name, draws on the works of modernist pioneers and major contemporary figures alike to explore how artists in a variety of media have redefined artistic practice by expanding the use of the model as a new visual force. Lavishly illustrated with dozens of pieces by such luminaries as Kandinsky, Duchamp, Joseph Beuys, Thomas Demand, and Jenny Holzer, "Models and Prototypes" also features a fascinating essay by curator Catharina Manchanda. Ultimately, this first volume in the museum's collection-based "Focus" series illuminates the centrality of models in contemporary art, asking why they remain so compelling as both tools and subjects.

Condition: Muy bueno. : Este libro es el primero de la serie Focus, una colección de publicaciones y exposiciones destinadas a examinar obras significativas de la colección del Museo de Arte Mildred Lane Kemper en el contexto de los discursos contemporáneos. Los modelos han ocupado siempre un lugar especial en el contexto de la producción artística. Esto cambió en el siglo XX, cuando muchos artistas se propusieron redefinir los parámetros del arte y la producción artística. Con nuevos objetivos artísticos, los modelos estructurales y conceptuales surgieron como obras de arte completas y viables en sí mismas. A partir de la década de 1910, el modelo, concebido como un sistema definido por un conjunto de reglas, adquirió cada vez más importancia, al igual que las cajas, las vitrinas a escala de modelo y las maquetas arquitectónicas. Marcel Duchamp y muchos artistas conceptuales de la década de 1960 desafiaron radicalmente las definiciones existentes de la obra de arte con la ayuda de modelos estructurales y conceptuales y el surgimiento de un énfasis en los múltiples. La centralidad de los modelos para los artistas contemporáneos, muchos de los cuales también están interesados en cuestiones sociales e históricas, plantea la cuestión de por qué se convirtieron y siguen siendo un tema y una herramienta tan convincentes.
