Basement locking cabinet Following a very brief introduction, the main body of this book is given over to the 44 individual predominantly New Mexico artists of the early twentieth century. Each artist has two or three pages allocated, and one or two examples of work. Occasionally an artist will have considerably more; Gerald Cassidy has ten pages and seven images; Edgar Payne, Carl Redin and Norma Bassett Hall six pages each. The entry for each artist briefly discusses his work and influences. All the images are full page size, many of them bleed on two sides; there are 53 full-colour and about 21 duo-tone pictures, the latter comprising drawings or prints. In addition there are several unidentified sepia-tone photographs, presumably to provide a sense of place. The book is well laid out with imaginative typography, although the font size selected for the text is quite large, and the choice of a sans face perhaps not the best for the often wide text area. The paintings include the familiar and the less familiar. The book (ISBN 971915075 hard cover, ISBN 971915083 soft cover, ISBN 971915091 limited edition) measures 9.25" x 11.25", landscape format, and has 154 pages; it is well produced and with good colour printing.

Serenading the Light celebrates a collection of works mostly by New Mexican artists of the early twentieth century. Nearly twenty years in the making, this compilation includes most of the names always associated with this time and place, but it also goes beyond those names to include masterful works by others not so well-known. Collections are built in many ways and though there is no handbook for this type of pursuit, it seems that the best, most honest collections are built from passion. Bill Schenck's passion in this endeavor shines through. His keen eye for strong composition, solid draftsmanship, bold strokes, and luscious paint make this collection exceptional. Artists included: Gerard Curtis Delano Joseph Fleck Norma Bassett Hall Joseph Imhof Nellie Knopf W. H. D. Koerner William R. Leigh Ila McAfee Coy Seward Ben Turner Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
