Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. How Karl Blossfeldt's plant photographs were disseminated in the popular media of the time, from pattern books to magazine spreads. In the 1890s, the Berlin artist, sculptor and teacher Karl Blossfeldt (1865-1932) started to photograph plants, seeds and other illustrative material from nature for the purpose of teaching his students about the patterns and designs found in natural forms. His close-ups of the smallest plant parts, magnified up to 30 times their natural size, startle us as they dramatically highlight the geometrical and sculptural properties of plants. Published in 1928, his first collection of photographs, Urformen der Kunst (later translated into English as Art Forms in Nature) became an international bestseller and remains one of the most significant photobooks of the 20th century. Karl Blossfeldt: Variations is the first monograph to examine the reception of Blossfeldt's work. Drawing on unpublished materials, it analyses the photographs' replication in teaching materials, pattern books, art books and in the pages of the illustrated press. The six sections of the book trace the paths that Blossfeldt's legendary plant motifs took in their incarnations as specimens, illustrations, patterns, analogues, models and abstractions from 1890 to 1945. Thematic contemporary appraisals illustrating the rediscovery of Blossfeldt's motifs in design and architecture over the past 20 years complement this new perspective on the beloved German photographer.

Softcover. Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 236 pages/Seiten, 57 color illustrations/Farbabbildungen - No Two Alike is a two-volume publication which documents an exhibition curated by Ulrike Meyer Stump as part of Cincinnati's 2018 FotoFocus Biennal, with its general theme Open Archive. " The exhibition restages the historic encounter between Karl Blossfeldt s plant photographs and Francis Bruguière s light designs held at the Warren Gallery in London in 1929 and juxtaposes it with the Photograms and Negatives series by contemporary artist Thomas Ruff. The combination of Blossfeldt's biomorphism and Bruguière's abstraction offers clues for the understanding of British modernism, and offers insight into the role photography and photobooks played in the British avant-garde. Throughout his career, Thomas Ruff has expressed great interest in the history of photography and has repeatedly shown a special affinity with Blossfeldt (particularly in his Negatives series); Bruguière's abstract light compositions, on the other hand, have strong formal ties to Ruff's photograms. "No two alike" expresses the three artists' mutual interest in the variant as a creative principle, also advancing the idea that each of these bodies of work presents a variant of the other.…

hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. Gebraucht - Sehr gut SG -leichte Beschädigungen oder Verschmutzungen, ungelesenes Mängelexemplar, gestempelt - In den 1890er-Jahren begann der Berliner Künstler, Bildhauer und Dozent Karl Blossfeldt mit dem Fotografieren von Pflanzen, Samen und anderen Naturmaterialien, um seinen Schülern in der Natur vorkommende Muster und Formen zu zeigen. Seine Nahaufnahmen kleinster Pflanzenteile, die er bis zu 30 Mal vergrösserte, überraschen durch ihr geometrisches und skulpturales Erscheinungsbild. Blossfeldts Fotosammlung wurde erstmals 1928 unter dem Titel Urformen der Kunst veröffentlicht und war eine Sensation. Die Publikation wurde zu einem internationalen Bestseller und bleibt bis heute eines der bedeutendsten Fotobücher des 20. Jahrhunderts.Karl Blossfeldt: Variationen ist die erste ausführliche Monografie, die sich ganz der Rezeption von Blossfeldts Werk widmet. Anhand von unveröffentlichten Materialien analysiert Ulrike Meyer Stump die Vervielfältigung von Blossfeldts Fotografien in Lehrmitteln, Musterbüchern, Kunstbänden und in der illustrierten Presse.

Thematische Ausflüge in die Gegenwart illustrieren die Wiederentdeckung von Blossfeldts Motiven in Design und Architektur der letzten zwei Jahrzehnte und gewähren eine zeitgenössische Perspektive auf den berühmten deutschen Fotografen.…
