Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Celebrated artist and influential teacher Michael Craig-Martin's first book is a lively mix of reminiscence, personal manifesto, anecdote and advice for the aspiring artist in a new paperback edition Few living artists can claim to have had the influence of Michael Craig-Martin. Celebrated around the world for his distinctive work, and with major retrospectives, high-profile commissions and numerous honours to his name, he has also helped nurture generations of younger artists, among them Julian Opie, Damien Hirst, Sarah Lucas, Liam Gillick and Gary Hume. Often described as the godfather of the YBAs, he taught by combining personal example and individual guidance, offering students encouragement, practical advice and insights gained from his own professional highs and lows. This powerful combination gave them the self-knowledge, confidence and motivation to flourish as some of the most successful figures in contemporary art. Now Craig-Martin shares the same benefit of his experiences with yet another generation. Part memoir and part instructional guide, On Being An Artist is a remarkable mix of reminiscence, personal philosophy, anecdote, self-examination, and advice for the budding artist. In a series of short episodes, he reflects with both wit and candour on the many ideas, events and people that have inspired and shaped him throughout his life, from his childhood in the postwar United States through his time as an art student at Yale in the 1960s and subsequent work as a teacher, to his international success in later years. More than the life of one of the most creative minds of our age, On Being An Artist provides lesson after valuable lesson to anyone wishing to know what it means and what it takes to be an artist today.…

Hardcover. Condizione: VG. Black boards with white lettering and BW illustration laid in. 119 pp. Illustrations, portraits. "This volume brings together two sets of images and two pieces of writing to create a unique hybrid work of art and letters. Bettina von Zwehl produced 'Laments', her series of fifteen silhouette portraits of women in near darkness, following a residency at the Freud Museum in London in 2013/14. Inspired by Anna Freud's passionate letters with women friends, they are an expression of the female bonds in the artist's own life after the sudden death of a close friend. She also made 'The Sessions', fifty fragments of a single photo of a young girl in response to her study of the life and legacy of Anna freud as well as her own experience of psychoanalysis. . Josh Cohen's short story 'The Arrivals' was in turn written as a response to these fragments, while also evoking various ideas and scenes he had himself encountered in analysis. His parallel essay, 'Invitation to Frequent the Shadows', is a critical reflection on light and shadow, art and artifice, and truth and lies prompted by his reading of the 'Laments' portraits, and continues his ongoing investigations into darkness, privacy and the hidden self.".…
