DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe late David Smith is regarded worldwide as one of the most important American sculptors. Through the photographs of Uga Mulas, "David Smith in Italy" documents the exhibition of his work as it was displayed at in Milan's dramatic PradaMilanoArte. The exhibition was comprised of works that were loaned by the most prestigious private and institutional collections in the United States, and was curated by Smith's daughter. It included 13 large sculptures, 24 mixed-media works, watercolors and several original photographs by Mulas. Smith's artistic relationship with Mulas (and indeed with Italy) dates back to 1962, when Smith created an exhibition for the Spoleto Two Worlds Festival and was photographed by Mulas.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis comprehensive sourcebook is destined to become a lasting and definitive resource on the art and aesthetic philosophy of the American artist David Smith (1906-1965). A pioneer of twentieth-century modernism, Smith was renowned for the expansive formal and conceptual ambitions of his broadly diverse and inventive welded-steel abstractions. His groundbreaking achievements drew freely on cubism, surrealism, and constructivism, profoundly influencing later movements such as minimalism and environmental art. By radically challenging older conventions of monolithic figuration and refuting arbitrary distinctions between painters and sculptors, Smith asserted sculpture's equal role in advancing modern art. A compilation of Smith's poems, sketchbook notes, essays, lectures, letters to the editor, reviews, and interviews, these previously unpublished texts underscore the varied ways in which his writing functioned as a means to examine and articulate his private identity and to promote the social ideals that made him a key participant in contemporary discourses surrounding modernism, art and politics, and sculptural aesthetics. All the documents in David Smith: Collected Writings, Lectures, and Interviews have been newly corrected against the original manuscripts, typescripts, and audiotapes. Each text in this collection is annotated with historical and contextual information that reflects Smith's own process of continually reviewing and revising his writings in response to his evolving aspirations as a visual artist.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOne of the pre-eminent American sculptors of the twentieth century, Smith was a powerful innovator. He introduced the industrial process of welding, and was able to manipulate metal into extraordinarily imaginative and varied compositions, using it literally to "draw in space." Pachner also sheds valuable light on Smith's prolific output of drawing, sketching, writing and photography.
