Книга: John Yau «Mernet Larsen»
Производитель: "Неизвестный" Mernet Larsen is the first monograph published on an American painter who has recently been rediscovered by the art world as a significant voice in the `extensive, possibly global conversation about how to portray modern, three-dimensional life on two-dimensional surfaces` (Roberta Smith, The New York Times). Larsen`s paintings are a complete world and, in that regard, belong to the tradition that includes Giorgio de Chirico and Rene Magritte. These worlds `reach toward` ours, even as they pull us in. Larsen`s paintings are abstracted figurations with Japanese-inspired perspective; tracing-paper cutouts are used all across the canvas, giving her works a constructed appeal. Their subjects include classrooms, coffee shops, vacation spots and malls--gathering places--as well as parodies of religious events such as the Resurrection. This monograph gives a full analysis of Larsen`s work of the past 30 years, with a focus on her oeuvre since 2000. ISBN:8862083068 Издательство: "Неизвестный" (2013)

John Yau (born
According to Matthew Rohrer's profile on Yau from Poets and Writers Magazine [Poets and Writers Magazine (2002) 30:3 pp. 24-31] , Yau's parents settled in Boston after emigrating from China in 1949. His father was an bookkeeper. [Dictionary of Literary Biography, v. 234: American Short Story Writers Since WWII, p. 307] Yau characterizes his father as an outsider - "My father was half English and half Chinese [...] so he never fit in." As a child Yau was friends with the son of the Chinese-born abstract painter John Way. By the late 1960's Yau was exposed to
"a lot of anti-war poetry readings in Boston [and] so I'd heard Robert Bly, Denise Levertov, Galway Kinnell, people like that. I don't know--Robert Kelly just seemed a different kind of poet. Mysterious, in a way. He was interested in the occult, in gnosticism and abstract art--things that had a particular appeal to me."According to Rohrer, Yau's decision to attend Bard College was motivated by his admiration of Kelly.
He received his B.A. from
Yau's honors include the Lavan Award from the
