Born in 1945, and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, he first established a multi-faceted artistic practice, which sought to break the limitations of painting by using unorthodox materials such as bodily fluids and food. He has since become known for visceral, often hauntingly humorous work in a variety of mediums—from performance, photography, film and video, to sculpture, drawing and painting.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-desc mt-2\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDuring the 1990s, he extended his practice into installations and stand-alone sculptural figures, utilizing a range of materials such as fiberglass, silicone, animatronics and inflatable vinyl. Playing on popular illusions and cultural myths, fantasy and reality collide in a delirious yet poignant exploration of the subconscious, in works that simultaneously challenge the viewer’s phenomenological expectations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhether absent or present, the human figure has been a constant in his work, either through the artist‘s own performances or the array of characters he creates to mix high and low culture, and provoke an analysis of our fundamental beliefs. These playfully oversized characters and objects critique the worlds from which they are drawn: Hollywood, politics, philosophy, science, art, literature, and television.

Among her sitters were the dancer Ida Rubinstein and the poet and novelist Natalie Barney. She spent most of her life in Paris, where she was a leading figure of an artistic counterculture of upper-class Europeans and American expatriates, many of whom were creative, bohemian, and homosexual. Brooks’s career reached its height in 1925, when her work was exhibited in London, Paris, and New York. In the 1930s, Brooks began work on her autobiography, No Pleasant Memories, which consists of sketches of her troubled childhood, musings on artists’ roles in society, and reflections on her own rejection of the norms and traditions of art. Largely forgotten by art history, Brooks bequeathed a number of her paintings to the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, DC, where recent exhibitions have sparked a renewed interest in her work.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ROMAINE BROOKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45393551589657,"sku":"","price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0732\/5024\/2841\/files\/2022-brooks_001web.png?v=1686039344"},{"product_id":"john-ashbery-something-close-to-music","title":"JOHN ASHBERY \/ Something Close to Music","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJohn Ashbery\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003eSomething Close to Music  \u003c\/em\u003e2022\u003cbr\u003eSoftcover, 184 Pages\u003cbr\u003e10 x 7cm\u003cbr\u003eDavid Zwirner, New York \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eCondition: New \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book places poetry by Ashbery, gathered from his later collections, in conversation with a selection of contemporaneous art writing. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAshbery’s poetry is frequently described as ekphrastic, though, rather than writing a poem “based on” or “inspired” by the content of an artwork or piece of music, he engages with how the experience of seeing it and the artistic strategies employed offer ways of thinking about it and through it.
