Armin Landeck, un artiste réaliste américain dont la carrière graphique a duré plus de la moitié du XXe siècle, a été reconnu pour son éclat en apportant une vie esthétique fraîche à l'architecture de New York.
Bien que ses sujets soient simples, l'art de Landeck est émouvant et puissant. Il avait été formé en tant qu'architecte mais a consacré sa vie à la gravure, créant sa première impression en 1927. Un voyage en Europe en 1928 a inspiré une série de trente-six points secs et aquatintes de sujets européens. Dans les années 1930 et au début des années 1940, Landeck a créé de nombreux points secs et quelques lithographies, principalement de la ville de New York mais aussi du Connecticut rural.
Cette édition révisée d'un livre publié pour la première fois en 1977 a été entièrement réécrite et élargie pour inclure des impressions inconnues lors de la publication de la première édition – ainsi que les impressions faites par l'artiste de 1977 jusqu'à sa mort en 1984. La première édition contenait 127 estampes et états ; 164 impressions et états sont maintenant représentés et décrits.
Un ajout important à ce livre décrit la participation de Landeck à de nombreuses expositions nationales imprimées telles que celles de la Bibliothèque du Congrès et de la Society of American Etchers. Reflétant l'appréciation croissante du travail de Landeck, la liste des institutions publiques de la première édition qui ont des impressions Landeck dans leurs collections permanentes est passée de trente et un à quatre-vingt-seize. Une nouvelle section intitulée « Notes sur les impressions » donne des informations détaillées sur de nombreuses impressions Landeck. Une bibliographie complète est une autre nouveauté de cette deuxième édition.

Catalogue Raisonne. "Armin Landeck, an American realist artist whose graphic career spanned more than half of the twentieth century, was recognized for his brilliance in bringing fresh aesthetic life to the architecture of New York."--BOOK JACKET. "Though his subjects were simple, Landeck's art is moving and powerful. He had been trained as an architect but devoted his life to etching, creating his first print in 1927. A trip to Europe in 1928 inspired a series of thirty-six drypoints and aquatints of European subjects. In the 1930s and early 1940s, Landeck created many drypoints and some lithographs, mostly of New York City but also of rural Connecticut."--BOOK JACKET. "This revised edition of a book first published in 1977 has been completely rewritten and expanded to include prints not known when the first edition was published - plus the prints made by the artist from 1977 till his death in 1984. The first edition contained 127 prints and states; 164 prints and states are now pictured and described."--BOOK JACKET. "An important addition to this book outlines Landeck's participation in many national print exhibitions such as those at the Library of Congress and the Society of American Etchers. Reflecting the growing appreciation of Landeck's work, the first edition's list of public institutions that have Landeck prints in their permanent collections has grown from thirty-one to ninety-six. A new section entitled "Notes on the Prints" gives in-depth information on many Landeck prints. An extensive bibliography is another new feature of this second edition."--BOOK JACKET.

Hardcover. Etat : Used - Very Good. '' Armin Landeck, an American realist whose graphic career spanned more than half of the twentieth century, was trained as an architect but devoted his life to etching, creating his first print in 1927. A brief period of study under Stanley William Hayter at Atelier 17 in New York City introduced Landeck to copper engraving, establishing his subsequent fascination with the burin and all it can do. For the rest of the l940s Landeck often used both drypoint and engraving on the same plate, but after 1950 he produced only copper engravings with the exception of three wood engravings in 1958. This revised edition of a book first published in 1977 has been completely rewritten and expanded to include prints not known when the first edition was published--plus the prints made by the artist from 1977 till his death in 1984. The first edition contained 127 prints and states; 164 prints and states are now pictured and described. An important addition to this book outlines Landeck's participation in many national print exhibitions such as those at the Library of Congress and the Society of American Etchers. Reflecting the growing appreciation of Landeck's work, the list of public institutions that have Landeck prints in their permanent collections has grown from the first edition's thirty-one to this edition's ninety-six. A new section entitled 'Notes on the Prints' gives in-depth information on many Landeck prints. An extensive bibliography is another feature of this second edition. N° de réf. du vendeur 67903
