Margaret McCann, "The Figure: Painting, Drawing, and Sculpture"
Skira Rizzoli (September 23, 2014)
THE FIGURE features outstanding examples of contemporary figurative
art by leading and established artists -- Jenny Saville, Eric
Fischl, Will Cotton, Jerome Witkin, Hilary Harkness, Mark
Greenwold, Eric White, Margaret Bowland and others -- alongside
emerging talents. Topical essays by distinguished critics, painters
and sculptors -- Donald Kuspit, Irving Sandler, Vincent Desiderio,
Alexi Worth, David Ebony, Julie Heffernan, Judy Fox, Kurt Kauper,
Laurie Hogin, Robert Taplin, and others -- along with "artist
methodologies" by Trenton Doyle Hancock, Richard Phillips, Rona
Pondick, Steven Assael, F. Scott Hess, Alex Kanevsky, Alyssa Monks,
Steve Mumford, Scott Noel, Natalie Frank, Anne Harris, Andrew
Raftery, Nicola Verlato, Steve Mumford, Edgar Jerins and others,
provide diverse historical contexts for the volume's nearly 170
artworks. The evolution of techniques -- from classical cast
drawing, perspective, and the camera obscura to the use of
photography, Photoshop, and 3D-modeling -- and changing cultural
conditions from antiquity to cyberspace are examined, and the use
of old and new techniques in contemporary figurative art described.
Underscoring the art of the figure's enduring appeal and the
pedagogy of the New York Academy of Art, THE FIGURE is essential to
anyone interested in both tradition and progress in figure-based
art, from students to professionals and collectors.
