グッゲンハイム美術館さんのインスタグラム写真 - (グッゲンハイム美術館Instagram)「“I have always thought of painting as skin, in a sense holding things back, ‘in place,’ existing tensely over that that it represses...The painter then X-rays parts that the skin covers and uncovers them. The metaphor is obviously figurative (skin protecting the fragility of that that it conceals) but I want the result to be abstract: it transforms itself in the making from the idea of an organ (like a throbbing close to the chest) into an idea about just throbbing.”—Ross Bleckner (@rossbleckner) ⠀ In 1984, Bleckner began a body of work incorporating ghostly semitransparent imagery set against dark, spatially illusionistic fields, filled with floating urnlike vessels, trophies, garlands, and flowers. The memorial symbols in these works have been widely perceived as a response to the AIDS epidemic and its profound impact on the art world. ⠀ __ “Throbbing Hearts” (1994), © Ross Bleckner #RossBleckner #GuggenheimCollection #Guggenheim #WorkoftheWeek」12月1日 2時38分
