House Beautiful If These Walls Could Talk: Thoughts of Home
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 23.18 $At times humorous, at times touching, these deeply personal essays by such acclaimed authors as Edna O’Brien, Christopher Buckley, Michael Pye, A.M. Holmes, and Stacy Shiff, capture all the love and magic of home. Taken from House Beautiful’s popular “Thoughts of Home” column.Home is where House Beautiful’s heart is, and this second engaging collection of the magazine’s “Thoughts of Home” column pays tribute to that very special place. These first person essays capture the nostalgia for Grandmother’s farmhouse, the giddy pleasures of that first apartment, the recovery from the loss of a beloved abode. Author Edna O’Brien leads us through her adored childhood home in County Clare, a place she still dreams about every night. Christopher Buckley’s “Foggy Bottom Blues” is an amusing account of his mishap-ridden relocation to Washington, D.C. Other contributors include the novelist A.M. Homes, the Pulitzer Prize winning biographer Stacy Schiff, and the travel writer Hope Cooke. From Patrick Dunne’s reminiscences of junkyard picking in New Orleans to Sally Ryder Brady’s story of watching her family’s Vermont house bulldozed to the ground, each of these essays reminds us that not only is there no place like home, but that no two are alike.· Advertising in House Beautiful Magazine

Doubt (Theories of Modernism and Postmodernism in the Visual Arts)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 2.04 $In an age where art history’s questions are now expected to receive answers, Richard Shiff presents a challenging alternative. In this essential new addition to James Elkins’s series Theories of Modernism and Postmodernism in the Visual Arts, Richard Shiff embraces doubt as a critical tool and asks how particular histories of art have come to be. Shiff’s turn to doubt is not a retreat to relativism, but rather an insistence on clear thinking about art. In particular, Shiff takes issue with the style of self-referential art writing seemingly 'licensed' by Roland Barthes. With an introduction by Rosie Bennett, Doubt is a study of the tension between practicing art and practicing criticism.

Between Sense and de Kooning
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 27.86 $“Order to me is to be ordered about,” Willem de Kooning said. Between Sense and de Kooning explores how de Kooning worked and thought about art, while respecting de Kooning’s own ambiguities and embrace of the abstract. Richard Shiff acknowledges de Kooning’s idea that art is not about concepts like progress or development, but is instead a sensory phenomenon. The word “sense” in the book’s title carries a dual meaning for Shiff in relationship to de Kooning’s art—it is used here as both a sensation or feeling and as reason. Employing both definitions, Shiff addresses the difficulty in interpreting de Kooning’s work that has complicated its critical reception in the art and scholarly world. With detailed analysis of specific works from throughout de Kooning’s career, many of which have never been published or studied before, Shiff discusses de Kooning’s use of materials and his technical experimentation. He looks at the artist’s painting processes, highlighting his tendency to transfer images, even actual paint, from one work to another, and considers his creation of an exotica of the mundane. Between Sense and de Kooning provides a much-needed analysis and appreciation of de Kooning’s complete oeuvre and will appeal not only to art historians but also to anyone curious to understand how such an independent and daring artist gained lasting recognition.

Format: Paperback
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 28.28 $Jack Whitten (born 1939) is an American abstractionist celebrated for his innovative processes of applying and transfiguring paint in works equally alert to materiality, politics and metaphysics. This publication focuses on more than 20 of the artist’s paintings from the 1980s and features an essay by Richard Shiff, Effie Marie Cain Regents Chair in Art at the University of Texas at Austin.Whitten holds a unique place in the narrative of postwar American art: over the course of a five-decade career, he has bridged gestural abstraction and process art, experimenting ceaselessly to arrive at a nuanced language of painting that hovers between mechanical automation and personal expression. Whitten has had a profound influence on many artists working today, and was awarded the National Medal of Arts in recognition of his major contribution to the cultural legacy of the United States.

Cezanne and the End of Impressionism: A Study of the Theory, Technique, and Critical Evaluation of Modern Art
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 53.19 $Drawing on a broad foundation in the history of nineteenth-century French art, Richard Shiff offers an innovative interpretation of Cézanne's painting. He shows how Cézanne's style met the emerging criteria of a "technique of originality" and how it satisfied critics sympathetic to symbolism as well as to impressionism. Expanding his study of the interaction of Cézanne and his critics, Shiff considers the problem of modern art in general. He locates the core of modernism in a dialectic of making (technique) and finding (originality). Ultimately, Shiff provides not only clarifying accounts of impressionism and symbolism but of a modern classicism as well.
