More disruption : representational art in flux
Seed, John, 1957-2023
Book
"Expanding on the idea of disruption that animated his first book, Disrupted Realism: Paintings for a Distracted World, art writer and curator John Seed brings together 43 contemporary artists with more than 300 images of their recent works. Profoundly shaped by the events, forces, and overflow of images surrounding them, their paintings are 'disrupted' stylistically, thematically, or sometimes both. The artists share insights in an engaging question-and-answer style, allowing us to appreciate how responding to life's disruptions engages the artistic imagination. A foreword by Nicholas Wilton, artist and the founder of Art2Life, helps us see how art relates to the 'super-fast, simultaneous, almost dizzyingly paced scrolling' of today's creativity. Divided into six themed sections, from 'Portraits in Flux' to 'Disrupted Narratives,' the book opens with a special essay on artist Jenny Saville, who has inspired many contemporary representational artists to disrupt their art. More than half the artists represented are from outside the United States, and with its wide range of artists perspectives--including women and BIPOC artists--we see how these creators are grappling with and reshaping the field of contemporary representational art." -- Provided by publisher.
