Hardback or Cased Book. Condition: New. Ayeye! Ruth Baumgarte at the Iwalewahaus. Book.

Hardback. Condition: New. 1. This new, richly illustrated book centres on how Ruth Baumgarte depicted humanity - from her early works created during the Second World War to the vibrantly colourful Africa pictures of her later years. Over four decades, Baumgarte (1923-2013) developed a distinct visual language born of existential urgency, ultimately culminating in her Africa cycle. She took more than forty trips to Africa, where, with a keen eye for people and relationships, she engaged with post-colonial realities, social inequalities, and cultural identity. Across her oeuvre, Baumgarte's personal experience of the 20th century is distilled into a visual reflection that touches on threat, renewal, and humanity's obligations to nature and society. Presented as a dialogue with contemporary African artists, this volume explores Baumgarte's biography, broader humanity, and the global perspective.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Der Mensch im Mittelpunkt zwischen Kriegsjahren und den Farben AfrikasUm Ruth Baumgartes Menschenbild kreist das neue reich illustrierte Buch von den frühen Arbeiten des Zweiten Weltkriegs bis zu den farbintensiven Afrika-Kompositionen der späten Jahre. In ihrem uvre verdichten sich Erfahrungen des 20. Jahrhunderts zu einer visuellen Reflexion gleichermaßen über Bedrohung und Erneuerung wie die Verantwortung des Menschen gegenüber Natur und Gesellschaft.Über vier Jahrzehnte hinweg entwickelte Baumgarte (1923 2013) aus existenzieller Dringlichkeit eine eigenständige Bildsprache, die im Afrika-Zyklus ihren Höhepunkt fand. Mehr als vierzig Reisen führten sie nach Afrika, wo sie sich mit wachem Blick für Menschen und Situationen mit postkolonialen Realitäten, sozialen Ungleichheiten und kultureller Identität auseinandersetzte.

Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 408 Seiten/pages, 500 color / 51 bw. illustrations - Anthology of African Art: The Twentieth Century does not propose to document any one African art, but rather to open up this vast but underexplored field to include a diverse theoretical, historical, geographical, and critical map of this dense and ancient region. Contributions by more than 30 international authors recount the birth of art schools in the 1930s, the development of urban design and public art, and the importance of socially-concerned art during the Independence movements. From Ethiopia, Nigeria, and the Belgian Congo to Ghana, Senegal, and Angola, through the works of hundreds of artists working in every conceivable medium and context, this anthology manages the continental and unique feat of providing a thorough, expansive, diversified, and fully illustrated history of African art in the 20th century. Since 1991, Paris-based Revue Noire Editions has dedicated itself to the multidisciplinary artistic production of the African continent and the African diaspora. Publishers of the critically-acclaimed An Anthology of African Photography, a comprehensive chronicle of African photography from the mid-1800s to the present. …
