Book excerpt: Unpainted Pictures is the title of a fascinating watercolors series painted by Emil Nolde from 1938 through 1945. Nolde created these works in the seclusion of his own home in Seebll, after his works had been confiscated by the Nazis and he himself had been forbidden to paint. He lent many of them to friends for safekeeping, in order to protect himself and his art from Gestapo raids. These small, free, imaginative works were ''unpainted'' in the sense that they did not officially exist and were not supposed to exist--also, Nolde hoped to expand on them at a later date. He never offered any of these watercolors for sale, and today this collection--which has become, for many, the summary and epitome of his work--resides at the Nolde Foundation in Seebll. All of the 104 watercolors in the series are presented here, along with a journal, consisting of dated notes, thoughts, questions and dreams, which forms a record of the period in which the Unpainted Pictures were being created. Gorgeous, diverse and quietly moving, these Unpainted Pictures continue to be nothing short of a revelation.

Book excerpt: In 1941, the president of the Reichs Chamber of the Visual Arts in Berlin prohibited Emil Nolde, 'effective immediately, from all professional activities in the field of the visual arts.' 'I was in the midst of beautiful, productive painting when this ban on painting and selling arrived. The brush fell out of my hand,' Nolde recalled. 'With a sword hanging over my head, movement and freedom were taken from me'. Nolde continued to paint during the eight years of his ostracism in a remote chamber of his home in SeebÜll. He called the small-format watercolours and gouaches that were sometimes no larger than the palm of his hand 'unpainted pictures.' More than 1,300 'unpainted pictures' were produced during the time of the painting ban. 'The small works on paper ... provided me with great pleasure personally and as a painter. It regularly occurred that I stood there, and was surprised almost without knowing it about that what I had invented.' The exhibition and this accompanying catalogue contains more than 100 of the 'unpainted pictures' – most of them for the first time – as well as selected oil paintings made before and after the painting ban. Published on the occasion of the exhibition With tied hands – Unpainted Pictures by Emil Nolde at Nolde Stiftung SeebÜll, Berlin Branch, June 2009 – January 2010. English and German text.

Book Synopsis Unpainted to the Last by : Elizabeth A. Schultz

Download or read book Unpainted to the Last written by Elizabeth A. Schultz. This book was released on 1995. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Endlessly pursued but ever elusive, Moby-Dick roams freely throughout the American imagination. A fathomless source for literary exploration, Melville's masterpiece has also inspired a stunning array of book illustrations, prints, comics, paintings, sculptures, mixed media, and even architectural designs. Innovative and lavishly illustrated, Unpainted to the Last illuminates this impressive body of work and shows how it opens up our understanding of both Moby-Dick and twentieth-century American art. The most continuously, frequently, and diversely illustrated of all American novels, Moby-Dick has attracted some remarkable book illustrators in Rockwell Kent, Boardman Robinson, Garrick Palmer, Barry Moser, and Bill Sienkiewicz, among others represented here. It has also inspired extraordinary creations by such prominent artists as Jackson Pollock, Frank Stella, Sam Francis, Benton Spruance, Leonard Baskin, Theodoros Stamos, Richard Ellis, Ralph Goings, Seymour Lipton, Walter Martin, Tony Rosenthal, Richard Serra, and Theodore Roszak. The artists reflect in equal measure the novel's realistic (plot, character, natural history) and philosophical modes, its visual and visionary dimensions. Some, like the obsessed and haunted Gilbert Wilson, claim Moby-Dick as their "Bible." Still others view the novel as a touchstone for feminist, multicultural, and environmentalist themes, or mock its status as a cultural icon.
