Cecile Hummel: Elusive Places, Photography Drawing - Hardcover

9783721205442: Cecile Hummel: Elusive Places, Photography Drawing

Synopsis

Cecile Hummel's works, her elusive places, are located in the diffuse area between photography and drawing. Since the early 1990s the artist has been working in fields of both media, exploring their potentials and balancing her pleasure at documenting reality with her inclination to analyse the depths of her objects. This book does more than merely document the work of an important artist of the present day; it also contributes to the debate on the meaning of photography and drawing as methods of pictorial expression in contemporary art and society. Richly illustrated with a large number of drawings and photos, it includes texts by the art historians Maja Naef, Dorothee Huber and Elisabeth Gerber as well as an interview with the artist by Markus Landert. Cecile Hummel's work of the last 15 years is examined and elucidated from a variety of angles.

Hardcover mit Schutzumschlag. 1. Aufl. Die Basler Künstlerin Cécile Hummel zeichnet und fotografiert. Während ihre Fotografien durch ihren Detailreichtum bestechen, ist für die Zeichnungen vor allem ihre Reduziertheit charakteristisch. Rein aus der Erinnerung entstanden, konzentrieren sie sich auf das Wesentliche, lassen sie das Typische einer Situation zu Form oder gar Zeichen werden. Anhand zahlreicher Abbildungen, dreier Texte von den Kunsthistorikerinnen Maja Naef, Dorothee Huber und Elisabeth Gerber sowie einem Interview von Markus Landert mit der Künstlerin werden unterschiedliche Zugänge zu Cécile Hummels Arbeiten der letzten 15 Jahre eröffnet. Die Publikation ist nicht nur die Dokumentation des Schaffens einer wichtigen zeitgenössischen Künstlerin, sondern zugleich ein Beitrag zu der Diskussion um die Bedeutung von Fotografie und Zeichnung als bildnerische Ausdrucksmittel in der heutigen Gesellschaft und Kunst. (Sehr gut erhalten! / in very good condition) Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 1100. Seller Inventory # 410107
