John Marin's Watercolors: A Medium for Modernism,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
American modernist John Marin (18701953) worked prolifically in watercolor, etching, and oil during a career that spanned more than 50 years. It was the medium of watercolor, however, that encouraged him in his development of a bold, original style that is both contemporary and authentically American. Marins improvisational approach to color, paint handling, perspective, and movement situated him as a leading figure in modern art and helped influence the Abstract Expressionist movement.John Marins Watercolors is the first book to present the Art Institute of Chicagos impressive collection of his works in its entirety, ranging from early images rooted in traditional practice to more experimental compositions. It explores the artists working method, his modernist vision as it developed through etching and into watercolor, and his intuitive investigation of the inherent properties of his watercolor to craft a new, avantgarde methodology. The works are organized chronologically and grouped according to the sites where they were painted, including New York City, France and the Tyrol, the Maine coastline, and the New Mexico desert.Marin had a strong regard for the presentation of his watercolors, and a section illuminates how he chose frames and mounts for each work. The Art Institutes significant collection of Marins original frames and mounts were bequeathed to the museum, along with some 50 watercolors, by legendary photographer, dealer, and collector Alfred Stieglitz. Marins and Stieglitzs attitudes toward presentation are discussed, and the frames are documented with photographic and written descriptions.
