{"title":"Reva Wolf","description":"","products":[{"product_id":"goya-book-stephanie-buck-9781907372766","title":"Goya","description":"One of the masterpieces of The Courtauld Gallery's collection of Spanish drawings is a sheet known as Cantar y bailar (Singing and dancing), page 3 from Goya's Album D, also known as the 'Witches and Old Women' album. Bringing together all the extant album pages, currently numbered up to 23, this catalogue proposes a reconstruction of the album that would include the sheets from which Goya's page numbers have been erased or trimmed away. Goya began to create 'journal albums' of drawings relatively late in life, after the shattering illness that left him stone deaf before the age of fifty. It was a practice he would sustain until his death, creating eight albums (named with letters A to H) that originally included a total of some 550 drawings. Visually, technically and intellectually coherent, these albums are unified in their discrete techniques and types of support, and paginated (after the first). In these album pages Goya committed to paper his views, with or without written comments, on human nature and the world around him. Each album has its own distinctive subject matter, style and technique. The later history of the eight albums, already expertly chronicled, remains under investigation. The disbound album sheets were remounted in large volumes by Goya's son, then sold en bloc by his grandson. Following their final dispersal by Federico de Madrazo and Valent n Carderera in the 1860s and 1870s, many gaps remain in all the albums. This exhibition and the research underpinning it on Album D are the pilot for an international project for the reconstruction of Goya's graphic oeuvre. The publication will test the extent of Album D and explore the possible sequence and thematic coherence of the sheets. The individual Album D drawings will be reproduced as a proposed reconstructed sequence, each with detailed catalogue entry and technical information. In addition, the publication will define the context of the album by including a number of closely related works by Goya.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49733577081105,"sku":"NGR9781907372766","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50479570845969,"sku":"GOR007315455","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50942941692177,"sku":"GOR007779283","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51513674170641,"sku":"GOR014310774","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1907372768.jpg?v=1751432853"},{"product_id":"andy-warhol-poetry-and-gossip-in-the-1960s-book-reva-wolf-9780226904931","title":"Andy Warhol, Poetry, and Gossip in the 1960s","description":"Andy Warhol is usually remembered as the artist who said that he wanted to be a machine, and that no one need ever look further than the surface when evaluating him or his art. Arguing against this carefully-crafted pop image, Reva Wolf shows that Warhol was in fact deeply emotionally engaged with the people around him and that this was reflected in his art. Wolf investigates the underground culture of poets, artists, and film-makers who interacted with Warhol regularly. She claims that Warhol understood the literary imagination of his generation and that recognizing Warhol's literary activities is essential to understanding his art. Drawing on a wealth of unpublished material, including interviews, personal and public archives, tape recordings, documentary photographs, and works of art, Wolf offers dramatic evidence that Warhol's interactions with writers functioned like an extended conversation and details how this process impacted on his work. This study aims to gives fresh insight into Warhol's art, and reformulates the myth that surrounds this original American artist.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50490101301521,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50490101465361,"sku":"GOR012235759","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51821647495441,"sku":"GOR012844800","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0226904938.jpg?v=1751259565"},{"product_id":"andy-warhol-book-reva-wolf-9780615348247","title":"Andy Warhol","description":"\u003cb\u003ePhotographs and essays that explore the interconnections between the private and the public in the work of Andy Warhol.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This exhibition catalogue explores interconnections between the private and the public in the work of Andy Warhol (1928?1987) as seen in a group of 151 Polaroid and black-and-white photographs donated to the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art by the Andy Warhol Photographic Legacy Program, a program of the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. Among the wide-ranging subjects of these photographs are Warhol's boyfriend Jon Gould; his friend and collaborator, the painter Jean-Michel Basquiat; fashion-world celebrity Diana Vreeland; the influential art critic and curator Henry Geldzahler; and (more surprisingly) landscapes in Aspen, Colorado. Essays focusing on individual photographs shed new light on these and other subjects, on the significance of photography for Warhol, and, more broadly, on the art and culture of the 1970s and 1980s.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e This catalogue is the fruit of an innovative collaboration between the SUNY New Paltz Art History Department and the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art. Students at SUNY New Paltz developed the concept for the exhibition and designed and wrote essays for the catalogue as part of their participation in two related courses taught at the college in Spring 2009. The catalogue editor, Reva Wolf, a noted Warhol scholar and the author of Andy Warhol, Poetry, and Gossip in the 1960s, oversaw this pioneering project, together with Brian Wallace, curator at the Dorsky Museum.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52481171783953,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52481173061905,"sku":"NLS9780615348247","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780615348247.jpg?v=1759851337"},{"product_id":"translating-warhol-book-reva-wolf-9798765110959","title":"Translating Warhol","description":"The first study of the translations of Andy Warhol's writing and ideas, Translating Warhol reveals how translation has alternately censored, exposed, or otherwise affected the presentation of his political and social positions and attitudes and, in turn, the value we place on his art and person.  Andy Warhol is one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, and a vast global literature about Warhol and his work exists. Yet almost nothing has been written about the role of translations of his words in his international reputation. Translating Warhol fills this gap, developing the topic in multiple directions and in the context of the reception of Warhol’s work in various countries.   The numerous translations of Warhol’s writings, words, and ideas offer a fertile case study of how American art was, and is, viewed from the outside. Both historical and theoretical aspects of translation are taken up, and individual chapters discuss French, German, Italian, and Swedish translations, Warhol’s translations of his mother’s native Rusyn language and culture, the Indian artist Bhupen Khakhar’s performative translations of Warhol, and Warhol as translated for documentary television.  Translating Warhol offers a fascinating multi-faceted perspective on Warhol, contributing to our understanding of his place in history as well as to translation theory and inter-cultural exchange.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53637860524305,"sku":"NLS9798765110959","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9798765110959.jpg?v=1781006009"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-reva-wolf.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
