In the 1950s American painter Richard Diebenkorn (1922–1993) took a dramatic turn away from his early work, exploring new vocabularies of both abstract and representational styles, which would come to be known as the artist’s “Berkeley period.” This era has long been recognized as one of the most interesting chapters in postwar American art, yielding many of Diebenkorn’s best-known works.
Richard Diebenkorn: The Berkeley Years, 1953–1966 examines Diebenkorn’s process and output during this decisive period. Three original essays explore the artist’s evolving conceptions of abstraction and representation, emphasizing the interrelationships between the abstract paintings and drawings and related landscapes, figurative works, and still lifes, as well as Diebenkorn’s ongoing interest in aerial views.
Featuring several significant works that have rarely been on view, as well as previously unpublished photographs from the Diebenkorn archives, this important publication is the first comprehensive look at this critical period.

Though falling into the realm of traditional "crafts"-pieces in glass, wood, ceramic, fiber, and metal-the works revealed in 200 color plates here can only be called art. This catalog from the Saxe collection in San Francisco showcases such striking examples of the craftsman's art as the sinuously curved and inviting Rocking Chair No. 42 by Sam Maloof and the virtually unsittable abstraction of Jay Stanger's Chair; Ken Price's painted ceramic sculptures; and the seemingly animate jars of Adrian Saxe; Kay Sekimachi's delicate paper bowls and the glass still life constructions of William Morris.(Tanitim Bulteninden)Sayfa Sayisi: 270Baski Yili: 2014Dili: IngilizceYayinevi: Fine Arts Museums SF

The Art of Making and Meaning presents the first comprehensive overview of Frank Lobdell's paintings, drawings, prints, and sketchbooks, and his long career as artist and teacher in the San Francisco Bay area. A seminal figure in the development of West Coast abstract expressionist painting, Lobdell early on recognized its potential as a lifelong arena for individual inquiry - a place where he could be entirely himself. He was also closely associated with the Bay Area figurative movement in the 1950s and 1960s. The figure as figure has remained on his canvases ever since, though in later work, his idiomatic forms no longer bear a readily apparent correspondence with the human body.
