1 comments about Edna Boies Hopkins: Strong in Character, Colorful in Expression.

1. Edna Boies Hopkins was a part of the art colony in Provincetown, Massachusetts during the early part of the 20th Century. After traveling in Europe and Asia she was part of the group experimenting with innovations in woodblock printing, in her case, with stunning results. This books brings to life her work, done in many parts of the United States and adds mightily to the biographical information available which had not been examined in depth until now. Mr. Vasseur is to be commended for his superlative effort.

2 comments about Feast of Color.

1. A surprize catch which popped up on my amazon radar. A most fascinating wide-ranging book spanning two important private collections. These are not scholastic orderly museum collections. Instead they hold a free liberal style of color driven by private pleasure...... . . . Artists in these chosen works use intense expressive stylezation in a fresh approach to create a new color/form space. Seldom seen Klee paintings fusing color and childish motifs. Beckmann utilizing his heavy nervous brush imposes anxiety upon his still-lifes. Kandinsky's pictorals may look mundane in 2008. But these bold color explosions were painted 100 years ago! His Murnau Garden II is a joy to behold. Russian - Parisian avant-garde: Von Jawlensky/Modigliani/the seizurish Kupka. . . But the Gestural Abstraction collection shall have you spellbound. Stunning works by Nay & Sam Francis. Hundreds of works brimming with motion and color.



2. This catalog surveys one family's generations-long accumulation of top-notch artworks. The collection is weighted toward colorful works of the 20th Century (emphasis on colorful). When it comes to color few artistic movements rival the highly-charged palette of French Fauvists and/or German Expressionists. These movements are well represented here with generous, high-quality reproductions and rare biographical details about the artists. Feast of Color addresses anyone who believes that Brücke painters or individuals such as Maurice de Vlaminck have yet to receive just credit. Let's hope this book marks the beginning of a trend.

2 comments about Robert Smithson.

1. The interviews are what stand out more than anything. The conversation between Smithson and Kaprow is really worth checking out. Anyone who will be having a show of their own should at the very least flip through this book. Also sheds some light into Smithson's early work (some text based things and a few paintings and so forth). Who would have thought that it would be a fun read too?
   This is the kind of collection you can return to again and again.



2. Bought this book for research, a lot to read, all photos are black and white.
