Alongside contemporaries such as Carl Andre and Donald Judd, Robert Ryman''s radical painting has fundamentally shifted the definitions and boundaries of art. Spanning four decades, this book charts the gradual evolution of consensus about the meaning of his painting. The most significant essays and exhibition reviews have been collated into one volume, including texts written by some of the most influential art historians and critics. . Some essays appear here in English for the first time. With an introductory essay by Vittorio Colaizzi." -- publisher''s statement.

Condizione: Wie neu. Deutsche Erstausgabe. Träume spielen sich ab", sagt R. L. Stevenson8, auf jener kleinen Bühne des Gehirns, die wir die ganze Nacht über hell beleuchtet halten, nachdem die Pechkohlen abgebrannt sind und Dunkelheit und Schlaf ungehindert den übrigen Teil des Körpers beherrschen". Sie sind kleine Schauspiele, in denen wir vor einem aus einer einzigen Person bestehenden Publikum die Rollen spielen; sie sind phantastisch und romantisch, tragisch und komisch, mit Angst und Qual und dem Hauch der Freude"9. Durch Jahrtausende sind sie gekommen und gegangen, so regelmäßig wie der Schlaf selber, und bis auf diesen Tag bewahrten sie ihr Geheimnis und trotzten wissenschaftlicher Zergliederung. Es ist nun der Zweck dieses Buches, zu ergründen, auf welche Weise sie von rohen und kultivierten Völkern, von Farbigen und Weißen, jetzt und in der Vergangenheit abgeschätzt und erklärt worden sind. Wir möchten wissen, wie der Mensch in all seinen Entwicklungsstufen vom unvernünftigen Tiere an diese seltsam erregende Erscheinung beurteilt hat. Einband berieben und bestossen, Schnitt fleckig.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good+ [Textblock Fine]. Limited Edition. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Designed by Christopher Sandford. Illustrated by Gwenda Morgan. "Among the manuscript note-books of the brothers Grimm are a large number of the fairy-tales they collected with such tireless enthusiasm. A considerable number of these have never been available to the general reader and are virtually unknown. Wilhelm Hansen, director of the Lippe Folk Museum, had access to the manuscripts and selected fifty of these tales for us, tales which Taylor, who made the first English translation, had described as 'most curious' and 'of great merit', but which he felt bound to suppress 'in deference to the scrupulous fastidiousness of modern taste, especially in works likely to attract the attention of youth'. Gwenda Morgan's quaint engravings seemed to compliment these folk tales to perfection." [Cock-A-Hoop]. Minor shelf/edge wear, even sunning at spine, else tight, bright, and unmarred. Purple cloth board, gilt lettering and decorative elements, frontispiece, teg. 8vo. 160pp. Illus. (b/w plates). Numbered limited edition, this being 188 of 500.
