internationalartists – Painting After Art is Dead

William Perehudoff

William was a Canadian Color-Field painter considered to be one of nation’s most significant Modernists. His works have an emotional resonance created through glowing color and simple forms.

Callum Innes

One of Britain’s best known abstract painters, Callum Innes works in the language of monochrome painting, rendering color fields within geometric grids or dividing his canvases bilaterally. For his ongoing series of “Exposed Paintings”, Innes engages in a process of addition and subtraction, layering pigments onto the canvas, then removing the oil paint with washes of turpentine. This method, which he describes as “unpainting,” leaves only traces of the paint’s former color.

Ilse D’Hollander

Hyperallergic notes that the Belgian artist Ilse D’Hollander rejected abstraction and figuration as an either/or premise in favor of a path that embraced both.

Matthew Ritchie

A student of mine chose Matthew for his writing assignment. I remember some amazing work he had at the CAM in Houston when I was in grad school so it was good to have a reason to revisit his work.

Tschäpe’s wide-ranging oeuvre is visually connected by a lexicon of forms that array across a variety of media—painting, drawing, installation, sculpture, photography, video, and performance.

Piet Mondrian

Getting ready to teach the history of Abstract Painting made me realize I’d never blogged about Piet, the founder of De Stijl and easily one of the most recognizable early Modernists.

More on How Piet Mondrian’s Abstractions Became a New Way to See the World.

Jean Helion

Since I’m not a historian by training or trade, I continually find it cool to learn about artists with a firm place in the canon– like Jean- while in the process of putting together a lecture on, say, Modernism and Concrete art.
