Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The Swiss collection Hubert Looser is amongst the most outstanding private collections of modern and contemporary art in Europe. Its foci lie in Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, Minimal Art and Arte Povera. Ranging from Modernism to the present day, the exhibition at the Kunsthalle Krems conveys an exciting overview of graphic and sculptural forms of expression with over 150 works of art by more than 40 artists that are featured in the collection. The exhibition will subsequently be shown at Kunsthaus Zürich.0A large, varied compilation of work on paper makes up the so-called ?chamber music? part that supports the ?orchestral? paintings and sculptures of the Hubert Looser Collection. These include pieces by Arshile Gorky, Willem de Kooning, Cy Twombly, Andy Warhol, Agnes Martin, Roni Horn and Richard Serra. Especially the line, and with it the drawing, are a visually aesthetic manifesto of the collector to deal intuitively and sensitively with art. In a sense, this collection of drawings epitomizes the immediate, graphic expression of the artistic idea. The works of Henri Matisse and Andy Warhol are seismographic linearisms of human figuration. Arshile Gorky's work manifests the epochal switch from Surrealism to Abstract Expressionism, from figuration to abstraction. This is followed by gestural procedural pieces by David Smith, Philip Guston and Brice Marden. Painterly work on paper that emphasizes the plane can be enjoyed in Sean Scully's monumental pastel, as well as in the minimalist stripe structures of Agnes Martin?s subtle watercolour paintings. Richard Serra conceives of drawing as a sculptural form of expression and paper as the carrier of oil paint?s weighty materiality. 00Exhibition: Kunsthalle Krems, Germany (01.07. - 04.11.2018) / Kunsthaus Zürich, Switzerland (20.09.2019 - 05.01.2020)
