100 Small Paintings - Tomas Rajlich

41.83 €

Tomas Rajlich is internationally recognized as a major figure in European painting. His monochromatic canvases based on the Minimalist grid are the result of meticulous research on the fundamental elements of painting. In the 100 small-scale paintings brought together in this booklet, he explores the combination of the impersonal, the gestural and the creative force of light; they are variations on the intensity, luminosity and facture of the paint, while clearly remaining a factual painting. Emerging in the early 1970s, he is often associated with Minimalism and Fundamental Painting a term coined by the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam in 1975. The current includes Robert Ryman, Robert Mangold, Agnes Martin, and the early years of Brice Marden and Gerhard Richter. An artist of uncompromising integrity, he maintains a position as one of the most significant living postwar and contemporary painters of his generation. His works have been the subject of major retrospectives and included in the collections of renowned museums worldwide, such as the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, and the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Tomas Rajlich patří k mezinárodně uznávaným nejdůležitějším osobnostem evropského malířství. Jeho monochromatická plátna založená na minimalistické mřížce jsou výsledkem důkladného výzkumu základních prvků malby. Na stovce maleb malého formátu, obsažených v této knize, zkoumá kombinaci neosobní, gestické a tvůrčí síly světla, jedná se o variace na intenzitu, svítivost a lom barvy, přičemž zcela zřejmě zůstávají věcnou malbou. Na počátku sedmdesátých let byl často spojován s minimalismem a fundamentální malbou pojmem, který zavedlo amsterdamské Stedelijk Museum v roce 1975. Tento proud zahrnuje osobnosti, jako byli Robert Ryman, Robert Mangold, Agnes Martin, v prvních letech též Brice Marden a Gerhard Richter. Rajlich si jako umělec nekompromisní integrity udržuje pozici jednoho z nejvýznamnějších žijících poválečných a současných malířů své generace. Jeho díla byla představena na významných retrospektivních výstavách a stala se součástí sbírek renomovaných světových muzeí, jako jsou Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen v Rotterdamu, Centre Georges Pompidou v Paříži či Museum of Modern Art v New Yorku.
