Remainder mark/tail edge. *** "In An American Lens, Jay Bochner looks at a series of milestones in the development of the American avant-garde that capture a pivotal period in artistic consciousness. He focuses on the multiple roles of Alfred Stieglitz - as influential gallery owner, photographer, and impresario of the emerging art scene - at a series of significant moments in his career. These close-ups offer a more intense and expanded understanding of the subject than the familiar long view." "Stieglitz as impresario and artist achieved an almost mythical status, which some recent critics have worked to deflate - casting him, for example, as Svengali to Georgia O'Keeffe's spellbound Trilby. Engaging in neither idolatry nor demolition, Bochner looks instead for the truth about the man and the myth. The scenes from American art in An American Lens create a new version of Stieglitz's biography, allowing us to reread his life and the life of his times by focusing intently on what is visible and not so visible in the art he left behind." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: The coming storm of modernism (1893); Conservation frames; Before the Armory (1913); Outside the Armory (1912-1913); Mechanics of the New York secession (1915); Days in April, sweet and cruel (1917); The serial portrait (1917-1935); Down from the clouds (1929-1935); Conclusion: the secession's unyielding father.

Trade Paperback. Etat : Used - Very Good. In An American Lens, Jay Bochner looks at a series of milestones in thedevelopment of the American avant-garde that capture a pivotal period in artisticconsciousness. He focuses on the multiple roles of Alfred Stieglitz -- asinfluential gallery owner, photographer, and impresario of the emerging art scene --at a series of significant moments in his career. These close-ups offer a moreintense and expanded understanding of the subject than the familiar longview.Bochner uses these scenes to recreate for today's readers the birth ofmodernism in America--what it was like to be an audience for the art of the earlyavant-garde. Moving from frame to frame, he shows us, for example, a singlephotograph by Stieglitz of a snowy night in 1893 and a short description by StephenCrane of just such a snowfall; the preparation, the reception, and the aftermath ofthe famous Armory Show of modern art in 1913; Gertrude Stein's portraits in prose;New York at the dawn of Dada, with Paul Strand, Francis Picabia, and others; and theintersecting paths of Mina Loy, William Carlos Williams, and Marcel Duchamp in 1917.Bochner also examines Stieglitz's three great photographic series: his photographsof Georgia O'Keeffe, of clouds, and of skyscrapers. These sections of the bookinclude many Stieglitz photos, including some rarely seen portraits ofO'Keeffe.Stieglitz as impresario and artist achieved an almost mythical status, which some recent critics have worked to deflate -- casting him, for example, asSvengali to Georgia O'Keeffe's spellbound Trilby. Engaging in neither idolatry nordemolition, Bochner looks instead for the truth about the man and the myth. Thescenes from American art in An American Lens create a new version of Stieglitz'sbiography, allowing us to reread his life and the life of his times by focusingintently on what is visible and not so visible in the art he left behind. A close reading of photography yields a groundbreaking cultural biography; reveals photography's impresario, Alfred Stieglitz, as he has never been revealed before and looks at his photographs as they have never been looked at before. Slight scratching/scuffing on cover. Book has minor shelf wear. …

The full range of his poetry―from classical rhymed alexandrines to "cubist" modernism, & from feverish, even visionary, depression to airy good humor―offers a challenge no translator accepted until Ron Padgett's brilliant work which made available for the first time in English translation the complete poetry of this legendary 20th-century French writer. * ABOUT THE POET: Novelist, poet & essayist, BLAISE CENDRARS (1887-1961) was also a cineaste, juggler, translator, & adventurer. CENDRARS, born Frederick Louis Sauser in 1887, invented his life as well as his art. His adventures took him to Russia during the revolution of 1905 (where he traveled on the Trans-Siberian Railway), to New York in 1911, to the trenches of World War I (where he lost his right arm), to Brazil in the 1920s, to Hollywood in the 1930s, & back & forth across Europe. W/ Guillaume Apollinaire & Max Jacob he was a pioneer of modernist literature, working alongside artist friends such as Chagall, Delaunay, Modigliani, & Léger, composers Eric Satie & Darius Milhaud, & filmmaker Abel Gance. The range of Cendrars's poetry (from classical rhymed alexandrines to "cubist" modernism, from feverish, even visionary, depression to airy good humor) offers a challenge no translator accepted until Mr. Padgett. *ABOUT THE TRANSLATOR: In addition to his brilliant translation of Cendrars, RON PADGETT has also translated works of Apollinaire & Duchamp.

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. First Edition.

Paperback. Etat : Fine. 1st. 189 pages, illustrations (chiefly colour); 23 cm. Exhibition held at the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, Santa Fe, NM, January 24 to April 20, 2003; and other venues. Tight, clean copy. *** "When Duchamp moved from Paris to New York in 1915, he was disappointed by the predominantly nature-based abstraction he observed, publicly proclaiming that American artists were too dependent on outmoded European traditions and had overlooked their greatest subjects--the skyscraper and the machine. Meanwhile, the artists associated with Alfred Stieglitz and his '291' gallery remained loyal to their belief in nature as a source of ongoing renewal for visual culture, and emphasized the crucial role that intuition and spirituality played in their creation of art. The crossfire between Duchamp and Stieglitz and their respective circles defined a critical moment in early twentieth-century American art. Debating Modernism includes reproductions of work by artists from both camps, from Charles Demuth, Georgia O'Keeffe, and Paul Strand to Man Ray, Francis Picabia, and Marsden Hartley. An essay by curator Debra Bricker Balken traces the threads of the debate through the 1910s and 20s, and also addresses the appearance of sexualized imagery in nearly all of these artists' works, a phenomenon that ironically unifies the two seemingly opposed camps. Jay Bochner's essay focuses on the artists' respective violations of American expectations about art." - Publisher. Size: 8vo. Collectible.…
