Beskrivning
This book, published ahead of an exhibition, is devoted to the birth of new conceptions, of a new approach to the evolution of abstraction in painting.  Since the late 1970s, abstraction has no longer consisted of the repetition of gestures viewed as “avant-garde” or embodying the history of the “newness” of the present age. With its new proposals, abstraction has, since the discovery of the Chauvet cave and its primitive murals in 1994, become an element enriching our pictorial heritage. Abstract painting re-reads, re-examines, composes and decomposes, transforms and reinvents using the figures on which its art is founded. The book comprises 8 chapters, featuring text by curators, writers, and art historians. + interviews, documents, and archives from 1975 to 2022.     The artists presented include, among others: Günther Förg, Lawrence Carrol, Etel Adnan, Shirley Jaffe, Julie Mehretu, Philip Taaffe, Beatriz Milhazes, Eugène Leroy, Katherina Grosse, Liu Shangying, Jonathan Jasker, Lee Bae, Pierrette Bloch, Bernard Piffaretti, Marthe Wéry, Yves Zurstrassen and David Tremlett.
