Topic: Neoexpressionism


  
  AllRefer.com - neoexpressionism (Art, General) - Encyclopedia
neoexpressionism, term given to an international art movement, mainly in painting, that began in the 1960s and 1970s, was a dominant mode in the 1980s, and has continued into the 1990s.
A reaction against what was seen as the stark and sterile character of minimalism and other purely abstract movements, neoexpressionism stresses aggressive, personal, and often brutally distorted figural imagery, slashing brushstrokes, strong color contrasts, and an emphasis on conveying spontaneous feeling rather than formal concepts.
Neoexpressionism has its roots in early 20th-century German expressionism and the abstract expressionism of the 1950s.

 Amazon.com: Art After Midnight: The East Village Scene: Books: Steven Hager   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
The outrageous energy of the participants and their subsequent notoriety will carry the reader through this uncritical, discursive pop history of what Hager calls the "Global East Village." He begins with CBGB's and its development as the premier club for punk rock and the nihilistic youth culture of its audience.
The author then covers various groupings that were to make Manhattan's East Village and neoexpressionism buzzwords of the '80s: Jean-Michel Basquiat, Kenny Scharf and Keith Haring receive extensive coverage, as well as performance artists like Ann Magnuson and "personalities" such as Patti Astor.
The book culminates with the explosion of galleries in the East Village and its impact on the New York art marketplace.

Whatever we may think of Philip Johnson’s qualifications as a designer or of the individuals and movements that he has promoted over the years, there can be no question that he has played a key role in shaping twentieth century architectural discourse.
Johnson has been an architectural trendsetter, promoting the International Style, Mies van der Rohe, classicism and historical eclecticism, postmodernism, deconstructivism, and now a kind of Scharounian neoexpressionism.
That his own design skills might be weak and that he sometimes took ideas from others and presented them as his own does not change the impact he has had on the discourse.1

"Despite the recent vogue for what rapidly became known as "neoexpressionism," that predominantly discursive style of richly painted figurative distortions engineered to evoke primal scream reverberations in the viewer, some artists were seizing upon a more distant, intellectual approach to the same cultural syndromes that had generated this emotional expurgation.
Rather than delving into their psyches, the SIGNS artists responded in kind, as it were, usually issuing a message, often a warning of sorts, which would be delivered in the same or a similar medium that the artists felt was creating the very condition they were critiquing."
