The Spiritual In Art: Abstract Painting 1890-1985
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
The result of years of research, the seventeen essays in this provocative book provide a radical rethinking of abstraction, from the Symbolism that prefigured abstract art through the current manifestations of spiritual content in American and European painting. Special attention is paid to the pioneers of nonrepresentational art -Wassily Kandinsky, Frantisek Kupka, Kazimir Malevich, Piet Jean Arp and Jackson Pollock, whose connection to the spiritual has been largely overlooked. An invaluable glossary offers lucid explanations of concepts such as alchemy and Anthroposophy as well as making clear the distinctions between mysticism, spiritualism, and the occult, which have often been confused.
