Hardcover. Condition: New. To celebrate the Neue Galerie's twentieth-anniversary year, an exhibition will be presented of selections from the collection of its co-founder. The accompanying book continues with the theme of the tenth anniversary exhibition. Whereas the earlier show and publication focused on pieces from the third century BC to the twentieth century AD from Austria, France, and Germany, this exhibition and book will represent various centuries and media, highlighting Greek and Roman works, and Italian thirteenth- and fourteenth-century gold-ground paintings. Essays by distinguished art historians and curators will reflect on the breadth of these special fields, providing a background for various works, and their incorporation into the collection of the Neue Galerie's co-founder.

Softcover. Condition: As New. Color-illustrated celery wraps. 32 pp. with 24 color illus. and numerous bw photos and illus. Making a Big Impressionism marks the first major exhibition of the work of Raymond Theel (18911952). A relatively obscure artist, Theel painted large-scale, impressionistic landscapes of his hometown in Jarrettown, Pennsylvania, and the surrounding area. Tragically, a fire in 1943 destroyed most of his work. Woodmere's exhibition is a rare opportunity to see the artist's surviving paintings. Expressive experiments with color, line, and perspective characterize his large depictions of wooded areas. This catalogue is the first publication to present and analyze Theel's accomplishments. In addition to a detailed artist chronology, the catalogue will reproduce a majority of the known paintings by this enigmatic artist. From the exhibition of July to November 2015.

Softcover. Quarto. Softcover. Illustrated wraps. 83 pages : illustrations ; 28 cm. George Biddle (18851973) was a leading American artist whose work engaged with the human condition, in particular the social injustices he encountered in his journeys across the United States and abroad. He served in World War I, was an artist correspondent for Life magazine in World War II, attended the Nuremberg trials, and participated in various federal committees that shaped the politics of twentieth-century American art. Once a schoolmate of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Biddle helped form the mural project of the Works Project Administration. Biddle himself created murals for the U.S. Department of Justice Building in Washington, DC, and, as part of an official effort to promote Pan-American progress and cooperation, for the National Library in Rio de Janeiro and the Supreme Court in Mexico City. This exhibition includes some seventy works that explore Biddle's creative engagement with a full spectrum of social change during his lifetime: the cultural resonances of both World Wars, the Russian Revolution, the executions of anarchists Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, the Great Depression, the Holocaust, and white supremacy. Biddle was ahead of his time in addressing issues of race, exploitation, and social class, and was a lifelong advocate of the arts as a healing force for a turbulent planet. A prolific author, he argued with figures such as Alfred Barr of New York's Museum of Modern Art, who championed an understanding of modernism in the arts as divorced from socially committed subjects. The exhibition will also showcase important works by Biddle that are recent gifts from his family to Woodmere. VG. Light edge wear, otherwise clean and unmarked.
