Pionierinnen der geometrischen Abstraktion = We will go right up to the sun : female pioneers of geometric abstraction
female pioneers of geometric abstraction
299 pages : illustrations (chiefly color), portraits ; 30 cm
"See the global south between 1914 and the 1970s through the perspective of women pioneers and their new artistic development: geometric abstraction. Artists like Sophie Taeuber-Arp and Sonia Delaunay played an essential part in the development of geometric abstraction, a form of non-representational art. We Will Go Right Up to the Sun presents an overview of the evolution of geometric abstract art and takes into account, in addition to the applied arts, the female perspective of the Global South with promising new discoveries. Geometric abstraction emerged around the turn of the last century from an attitude that was permeated by renewal, utopia, and resistance, and that aimed at the unity of art and life. Colorful, geometric, and highly attractive, this comprehensive view of the art produced between 1914 and the 1970s is lavishly illustrated and relates the narrative from a female, global, historical, and contemporary perspective, revealing the dense network between women artists, gallerists, and critics."--
