Greetings,
I am shortly emerging from my frantic life to share a couple of articles I
have come across.
The first was a pleasure to read as it was well organized for a change. If
any of you have come across it, I would like to hear your thoughts on it.
It's essentially rejecting Modernism aesthetic as a yardstick to measure
crafts which would then require a whole new vocabulary.
Metcalf, Bruce. "Replacing the Myth of Modernism." American Craft
February/March 1993: 40-7.
I am trying to see if anything has been written on this vocabulary
following this "divorce" from Modernism idea. If you know of an article
PLEEEEASE :) let me know. Thanks.
The second article will make anyone gloat if they are not partial to Ab-Ex
painting. There are also a couple of interesting comments about it in the
previous article.
Kramer, Hilton. "Jackson Pollock & the New York School." The New Criterion
January 1999: 17-22.
________. "Jackson Pollock & the New York School, II." The New Criterion
February 1999: 14-9.
Cheers,
Fabienne
