Paul Klee: "A line is a dot that went for a walk"

• "The pictorial work was born of movement, is itself recorded movement, and is assimilated through movement (eye muscles)".

• "Art does not reproduce the visible; rather, it makes visible".

Lennette Newell | Body art photographer

Naturalist fashion photographer Lennette Newell channels a lifelong passion for Earth’s biodiversity and the magical wonder of the natural world into compelling animal portraits that afford viewers an intimate glimpse of creatures large and small. Having grown up on the high plains of western Nebraska as the daughter of a veterinarian and cattleman, Lennette creates images that explore the innate connections between subject and photographer, the common ties between the world of humans and that of animals.

Newell’s black-and-white photographs are simultaneously stark in composition yet rich in detail. Again and again, the viewer comes face to face with animal subjects that display an unexpected emotionality that lends new insight into the inner lives of these creatures.

L'espressionismo astratto di Arshile Gorky

Arshile Gorky, nato Vostanik Manoug Adoian /Ոստանիկ Մանուկ Ատոյեան (1904-1948) è stato un pittore Armeno naturalizzato statunitense, esponente dell'Espressionismo Astratto.

Gorky nacque a Khorkom, un piccolo villaggio situato nei pressi del lago di Van, nell'allora Turchia ottomana (oggi parte della regione turca dell'Anatolia Orientale), il 15 aprile 1904 in una povera famiglia armena. Nel 1908, per eludere il servizio di leva, suo padre fuggì negli Stati Uniti, lasciando a casa la propria famiglia.

Allo scoppio della prima guerra mondiale, nel 1915, Gorky scappò con la madre e le sorelle in Armenia (al secolo una provincia dell'Impero russo), per poter così sfuggire alle atrocità commesse sulla minoranza armena dall'esercito ottomano. Sua madre morirà poi di stenti a Erevan, nel 1919.

Emil Nolde (1867-1956) | Flowers

German-Danish painter and printmaker Emil Nolde was one of the first Expressionists, a member of Die Brücke (The Bridge) of Dresden in 1906, and was one of the first oil painting and watercolor painters of the early 20th century to explore color.

On an ethnological expedition to the East Indies 1913-14, he was impressed by the power of the art he saw there. Back in Europe, he produced brooding landscapes and colourful flowers.

As a printmaker he was noted especially for the stark black-and-white effect of his crudely incised woodcuts.

He is known for his brushwork and expressive choice of colors. Golden yellows and deep reds appear frequently in his work, giving a luminous quality to otherwise somber tones. His watercolors include vivid, brooding storm-scapes and brilliant florals.
