      Shara Hughes

      Time Lapsed

      Shara Hughes (b. Atlanta, 1981; lives and works in New York) describes her pictures and drawings as psychological or invented landscapes. Her cliff coasts, river valleys, sunsets, and lush gardens, often framed by abstract patterns, might be the settings of fairy tales or scenes from paradise. As the New Yorker put it, the paintings " use every trick in the book to seduce, but still manage to come off as guileless visions of not-so-far-away worlds." Wielding oil paint, brushes, spatulas, and spray cans, the artist celebrates painting itself, not infrequently quoting the masters of past eras.Shara Hughes studied at the Rhode Island School of Design and later attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. Her most recent solo exhibitions are currently on view at the FLAG Art Foundation, New York, and the Kunstmuseum Luzern, Switzerland. In 2021, she had shows at the Yuz Museum, Shanghai; the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis; the Garden Museum, London; the Aspen Museum of Art, Colorado; and at Le Consortium, Dijon.

      David Hockney

      Moving Focus

      Dieser Katalog zur Ausstellung im Kunstmuseum Luzern umfasst das gesamte Schaffen des herausragenden britischen Künstlers David Hockney. Mit mehr als 80 Gemälden, Zeichnungen und Druckgrafiken spannt sich das Lebenswerk aus Hockneys Londoner Studienzeit über die 1960er-Jahre in Los Angeles, die Neuausrichtung seiner Malerei in den 1980er-Jahren, einem Jahrzehnt mit Landschaften aus Yorkshire bis hin zu seinen jüngsten, monumentalen iPad-Zeichnungen. Diese Werke aus der Sammlung der Tate bilden die magische Essenz dieses großen Œuvres, darunter die Doppelporträts My Parents und Mr and Mrs Clark and Percy oder das ikonische A Bigger Splash. Die Essays beleuchten Hockneys Sozialisation in der jungen Queer Culture Englands der 1960er-Jahre; persönliche Beiträge und Erinnerungen von Frank Gehry, Marieke Lucas Rijneveld, Ed Ruscha, Christine Streuli oder Ali Smith markieren Hockneys große Bedeutung für die zeitgenössische Alltagskultur.0DAVID HOCKNEY (*1937) verbrachte seine Kindheit in Yorkshire. Während seines Studiums am Royal College of Art zog er 1961 erstmals öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit auf sich. Seitdem avancierte er zu einem der bedeutendsten Künstler der Gegenwart. Neben der Malerei arbeitet er als Zeichner, Grafiker, Bühnenbildner und Fotograf.00Exhibition: Kunstmuseum Luzern, Switzerland (09.07 - 30.10.2022)

      The double publication "Michal Budny. Drawing Notes, Sculptures and Objects "brings together the current work of the Polish artist Michal Budny. Three extensive articles by Fanni Fetzer, Lukasz Gorczyca and Marek Troszynski talk about his graphic work as well as the haptic and poetic quality of Budny's objects. At the beginning of Budny's work process there is a close observation of emotions, places and relationships. The artist is interested in the nature of spaces, their volume and the clash of different materials. His rhythmic drawings and fragile sculptures are often site-specific and always convey an atmosphere, a memory or a feeling. The double publication shows over a hundred illustrations of works on paper. A comprehensive documentation of objects provides a deeper understanding of his work.
