AUTHOR

Lipsey, Roger

SUMMARY

In 1911, modernist painter Wassily Kandinsky publishedConcerning the Spiritual in Art,a treatise on the meaning of modern art and a challenge to his contemporaries to free their work from traditional bonds. Eight decades later, the distinguished scholar Roger Lipsey examined the response to Kandinsky's call with this exploration of the spiritual content of 20th-century art. A compelling, well-illustrated history of art and ideas, this book focuses on the works of such renowned painters as Mondrian, Klee, Picasso, Braque, Duchamp, Matisse, and Brancusi. Lipsey interprets each creation within the context of its conception, examining the movements that inspired each work, from Theosophy and Buddhism to Jungian thought and humanistic psychology. Letters, diaries, and interviews provide insights into the artists' views of spirituality and the ways in which they approached their work as a form of meditation. 121 black-and-white illustrations.Lipsey, Roger is the author of 'Spiritual in Twentieth-Century Art', published 2004 under ISBN 9780486432946 and ISBN 0486432947.
