Robert Motherwell on Paper: Gesture, Variation, and Continuity

October 17 to December 13, 1997

Marsh Art Gallery

Introduction

Abstract art is stripped bare of other things in order to intensify its rhythms, spatial intervals, and color structure, a process of emphasis. - Robert Motherwell

The renowned Abstract Expressionist artist Robert Motherwell (1915-1991), best known as a painter, produced a remarkable body of works on paper. His drawings, prints, and collages show an intimate side of his visual sensibility and reveal the very personal "handwriting" of the artist as he responded to the subtleties of paper, both as a medium and …

A Series Of Paintings Investigating Certain Specified Space Concepts, Michael C. Jackson Aug 1971

A Series Of Paintings Investigating Certain Specified Space Concepts, Michael C. Jackson

All Master's Theses

This thesis is devoted only to that work considered completely investigated: a portrait/figure series of seven paintings. In addition, the series of works with which this thesis is devoted essentially follow this format: large areas of architectural space and color versus a natural object- -a portrait figure. A play or conflict was set up between these two things; the success of the play determined the success of the painting. The factors used to judge success are basically those classical rules of composition dealing with balance: visual weight of areas, complexity, and color. The only areas manipulated were: (1) shape of …


I Made Some Prints, Teresa O. Tempero Aug 1971

I Made Some Prints, Teresa O. Tempero

All Master's Theses

In discussing the prints and drawings chosen for this study, I wish to consider mostly subject matter and composition, giving less mention to technique. The three forms of printmaking used are intaglio, collagraph, and woodcut. A specific theme was not chosen for these prints. Since printmaking has been such a relatively new experience of expression for me, I chose to concentrate this study on the printmaking process.


Parody As The Ironic Mode Of Existential Art, Delma Ward Tayer Jan 1970

Parody As The Ironic Mode Of Existential Art, Delma Ward Tayer

All Master's Theses

This study was commenced as an investigation into the aesthetics of existentialism as applied to contemporary art in America, particularly painting. This student believes that to the artist who recognizes the absurdity of his existence, irony is the natural mode of expression. It is also the belief of this student that the form of irony in recent American art, expressed primarily in parody and black humor, indicates America’s own particular brand of cheerful nihilism. The purpose was to better understand the aesthetics of existentialism, to apply these to contemporary art, and finally to apply these influences to the student’s own …

A Series Of Intaglio And Mixed-Media Prints Portraying The Negative Consequences Resulting From Man's Inhumanitarian Actions, Susan Clare Miller

All Master's Theses

It is the purpose of this study (1) to portray in visual, graphic form the negative consequences resulting from inhumanitarian acts man inflicts upon himself and others; (2) to delineate these actions in a revealing, subtle manner that is still representative of the facts of reality; (3) to experiment with a diverse range of intaglio printmaking techniques and compositional arrangements which best produce the visual, emotional effects desired.
