Photographic Art of Hoyningen-Huene by William A. Ewing, (Book)
About the Item
'Talented, Idiosyncratic, stylish and worldly' is how William A. Ewing describes the sitters for the photographs in this book; exactly the same could be said of their photographer.
Two hundred and twenty-five superbly reproduced colour and duotone illustrations display for the first time in book form the full range of Hoyningen-Huene's talent. They have been chosen by William A. Ewing .
He shows how Hoyningen-Huene's style and techniques were shaped by his aristocratic upbringing, by his collaboration with MAn Ray, by his intimate contacts with the artistic milieu of 1920's Paris, and by the influences of the photographers Edward Steichen and Baron de Meyer. Little-known aspects of his life, such as his work in Hollywood as colour coordinator for George Cukor, are fully discussed. The text concludes with a survey of his importance for photographers as diverse and distinguished as Avedon, Penn and Horst. 248 pages. 1550 grams.

- William Nicholson: Catalogue Raisonne of the Oil Paintings (Book)Located in North Yorkshire, GBBy Patricia Reed William Nicholson (1872-1949) is among the most admired and elusive painters in the history of British art. Neither academic nor overtly modernist, his ravishing paintings are a singular achievement of the early twentieth century. Nicholson made his name as a graphic artist in the 1890s before turning to painting full-time. Over the next four decades he explored the genres of portraiture, landscape and still life with exceptional inventiveness, wit and technical skill. Yet his aversion to art groups and his reluctance to make public pronouncements about art have made it difficult to place his work within the main narratives of twentieth-century art history. The breadth of Nicholson's painting is revealed in this sumptuous book, the first fully illustrated catalogue raisonné of the oils. Many of Nicholson's pictures have not been recorded before and most are reproduced here for the first time. The catalogue, which represents more than twenty years of scholarship on the part of its author, Patricia Reed, includes detailed entries on all Nicholson's oil paintings and the most comprehensive chronology of his life to date. The art historian Wendy Baron gives a context for Nicholson in British art at the beginning of the twentieth century, and the painter and critic Merlin James...Category
