"“Order to me is to be ordered about,” Willem de Kooning said. Between Sense and de Kooning explores how de Kooning worked and thought about art, while respecting de Kooning’s own ambiguities and embrace of the abstract. Richard Shiff acknowledges de Kooning’s idea that art is not about concepts like progress or development, but is instead a sensory phenomenon. The word “sense” in the book’s title carries a dual meaning for Shiff in ..."

Some content there was so intense that it came with a warning label: "Contains graphic depiction ..."

"The nature of the visual has, over the past decade, moved to the center of debates in the humanities. No longer simply the study of timeless masterpieces, art history as a discipline is now addressing some of the most basic questions about cultural production, questions such as how images function and how expectations and social factors mediate what we see. The new scope of art history has required a major expansion and reassessment of ..."

"The most comprehensive monograph on Turner Prize-nominated artist Peter Doig. In every generation of artists, there are a few-or perhaps just one-who propose a new set of questions and alter the way we understand art. Peter Doig is such an artist. While stories of painting’s demise in the early 1990s deemed painters and their work quaintly anachronistic, Doig-looking ahead as much as back for inspiration-forged a new painterly language ..."

"An authoritative and elegant study of the theme of repetition in early modern painting Today serial imagery dominates all forms of visual media, from advertising to conceptual sculpture. In this innovative project, the authors show that the phenomenon of repetition appears as a radical element in early modern painting, long before its embrace by 20th-century high modernism. In works by Ingres, Delaroche, Gérôme, Corot, Millet, Monet, Cé ..."

Initially constructed by hand, the sculptures were later industrially manufactured in galvanized iron, steel, plexigl ..."

"Although widely regarded in the twentieth century as the great forerunner and prophet of a cerebral and abstract modern art, Paul Cezanne belonged to the generation of the Impressionists, with whom he shared an attachment to picturing nature and an insistence upon personal expression and immediacy of sensation as the foundations for his art. Richard Shiff, director of the Center for the Study of Modernism at the University of Texas at A ..."
