Includes bibliographical references.NCMA Collection,Der deutsch-amerikanische Künstler Lyonel Feininger (1871 - 1956) war gerade einmal 16 Jahre alt, als ihn 1887 ein Ozeandampfer über den Atlantik nach Europa und ins wilhelminisch-kaiserliche Deutschland brachte. Er sollte eigentlich Violine studieren, Feininger aber wollte zeichnen. So schrieb er sich zunächst für die Zeichenklasse an der Allgemeinen Gewerbeschule in Hamburg ein und setzte sein Studium dann an der Königlichen Akademie in Berlin fort. Er erwies sich als ein aufmerksamer Beobachter, der mit wenigen Strichen Situationen und Charaktere treffend einzufangen verstand und bald Aufträge als Karikaturist für den Ulk, die Lustigen Blätter und Das Schnauferl bekam. Hier begann seine Karriere als einer der bedeutendsten Künstler der Moderne. Die Ausstellung Traumstadt Lyonel Feininger und seine Dörfer untersucht Feiningers intensive Auseinandersetzung mit Dörflichkeit und Urbanität im Kontext zunehmender Industrialisierung und Verstädterung zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts. Präsentiert werden fast 90 Naturnotizen, Zeichnungen, Aquarelle, Druckgrafiken und Gemälde aus den Jahren 1890 bis 1955, die aus internationalen Museen und privaten Sammlungen stammen, etwa der Phillips Collection in Washington, dem Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, dem North Carolina Museum of Art, Raleigh, den Harvard University Art Museums, Busch-Reisinger-Museum, Marlborough Fine Arts, London, dem Kirchner Museum Davos, den Staatlichen Museen zu Berlin, den Staatlichen Kunstsammlungen Chemnitz und der Lyonel-Feininger-Galerie in Quedlinburg.00Exhibition: Kunsthaus Apolda Avantgarde, Apolda/Thüringen, Germany (15.09. - 15.12.2019).

Mark Innerst. by Innerst, Mark,1957-artist.(CARDINAL)302615; Burns, Edward,1944-author.(CARDINAL)357472; D.C. Moore Gallery,publisher,host institution.(CARDINAL)226733;

Mark Innerst is a painter who transforms the urban and rural landscape, investing it with a radiant beauty and complexity. Cities like New York and Philadelphia can simultaneously appear majestic, immense, and serene, as streetscapes become a series of soaring verticals or stacked, layered blocks of color. Buildings curve overhead or sweep downward to street level, where human activity is reduced to blurs of light and movement. In his new Midtown series, inspired in large part by the towers that line Manhattan's Sixth Avenue in the forties and fifties, as well as in his paintings of downtown Philadelphia, Innerst reduces architecture to abstracted elements, stripes and geometric shapes, that recede in rhythmic progressions to either an opening at the end of an urban canyon or the façade of another building, closing the view in upon itself. Innerst also paints panoramic vistas of rivers and estuaries, atmospheric landscapes intersected by prismatic hues that create bold visual effects. By emphasizing the refraction of light in these luminous environments, some of which include industrial buildings on a low horizon in the distance, he invites us to reflect on the interplay between an idealized landscape and the modern world. From his exacting use of glazes to his handmade frames, Innerst adapts tradition to his contemporary intentions. In his new work, he continues to draw upon the great tradition of nineteenth century European and American painting and the structural and expressive use of color as explored in mid-twentieth-century abstraction, as Edward Burns notes in his catalogue essay. His paintings are vibrant and inventive, anchored in his immediate environment, while at the same time, transcending everyday perception with a dynamic vision of the modern world. -- Press release.
