Kahnweiler was Picasso's lifelong dealer, a major figure in the development of modern art, and one of Cubism's earliest champions. This volume presents the conversations he had with Francis Cremieux, in which he discusses his life, beliefs, practices, friendships with the great artists and writers of his day, all providing a sense of the fertile intellectual ground in which Cubism developed. Originally published as Mes Galeries et mes peintres by Editions Gallimard, Paris, in 1961. Includes an extensive additional interview conducted shortly before Kahnweiler's death.

1. Think outside the square!You've probably heard statements like 'thinking outside the square'?I write on the assumption that most readers are painters.But I have had one or two potters, subscribe to the newsletter I write.The potters were looking for new ideas.They could get information from within potting circles.There's more of a chance of a breakthrough if a search is made elsewhere.That's thinking outside the square.To get something really useful the potter will need to translate what is written.So it becomes something that suits their own situation.We all translate what is read into something useful or nothing happens.I remember reading, quite a long time ago, about Picasso.He decided that he'd like to work with clay and sought out some potters.All were keen to demonstrate to the famous artist what to do and techniques.Picasso would have none of this.He shut himself in a shed for a week or so.When he re-appeared the potters were amazed.He developed new ways of working with clay and created new forms.They could only have come about through Picasso's unique vision.He did not want to be side-tracked by working in the way of others.Before he'd had a chance to develop his own approach.He was really stepping outside the (ceramic) square.Picasso made discoveries that were unlikely had this not been done.Let's stay with the potting idea a bit more.Because clay can be turned on a wheel it's possible to make similar pieces.Selling similar pieces is a common problem for potters, but not painters.But reproduction prints are a parallel.Many potters produce two lines, production pieces and one-off works.Production pieces are often utilitarian, such as mugs, cups, saucers or jugs.They're "bread and butter‟ for a potter, and most time is spent making them.Many are the same so it's possible to make them quickly in large quantities.This is of course essential as they're mostly sold for quite low prices.The more creative work is the artistic output of the potter.This takes less total time, but considerably more than a production piece.These "one-off‟ items are also more highly priced.Some potters' artistic work is sought after and they sell in galleries like artists.In my gallery-owing days, I promoted painters, but had one potter.In his case in my gallery, the one-offs easily outsold the production pieces.We only sold a few of the production pieces, and they were always cheap.With one potter my experience is limited and may not apply elsewhere.This suggests a potter have different outlets for different kinds of work.Production pieces at places where there was a likelihood of many sales.Tourist resorts, shopping centres, markets, where many people congregate.One-offs at prestige locations with exclusiveness, status and higher price.Perhaps potters do this but artists can do the same as well!Have production artworks and your creative works too, just like the potter.There are well-known and successful artists who've gone down this pathway.They're looked down on for this, but they are laughing all the way to the bank.Recently I met a printmaker, whom I hadn't seen for several years.He is technically superb and images complex and charged with symbolism.He is very serious about his art and "making it‟ critically.In fact he has already achieved quite a deal in this regard.So I naturally asked him how his career was progressing.He's still doing the style of work I knew as in the previous paragraph.But he and a friend have been producing prints for sale to hotels and motels.They're quick and easy to make, sold cheaply AND he finds them fun to do.An aspect of this is the artist and friend; often collaborate on the same work.They use a nom-de-plume so there's no worry about who actually did a work.This also means there are no repercussions where his normal work is sold.

Excerpt from The Gallery of Famous Painters: A History of Art in All Counties and Ages What is Art? We owe, what we consider the best definition, to one who never meddled with paints, or marble, yet who helped on the cause of art in his day with an energy of practice and a blaze of enthusiasm which has rarely been equalled before or since. This was Benvenuto Cellini, the immortal jeweller of the sixteenth century, and he says in effect that the aim of art is "to produce a representation of a beautiful human figure, with correctness of design and in a graceful altitude." If we approve this definition, and keep it in mind, it will greatly simplify our estimate of the men and works we shall ltavc to discuss in the present work-The History of Art, But, "What is the history of painting to me?" maybe the remark of a worthy citizen whose eye lights on the title-page of our history: "I leave all that to artists, to picture-dealers and their customers, and perhaps to a few young ladies who arc learning to sketch." Softly, my good sir; with your leave, it may be possible to show that a great many more people than you think for arc gifted by nature with a capacity for deriving enjoyment from Art; and that their indifference, it maybe, to it is due quite as much to want of opportunity, as to inaptitude. Who can have failed to notice the intense delight children take in harmonious combinations of colors? How catching is a broad grin reflected from a Teniers, or a Van der Meer, to the eye of a holiday gazer! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

I carry my landscapes around with me focuses on American abstract artist Joan Mitchell’s large-scale multipanel works from the 1960s through the 1990s. Mitchell’s exploration of the possibilities afforded by combining two to five large canvases allowed her to simultaneously create continuity and rupture, while opening up a panoramic expanse referencing landscapes or the memory of landscapes. Mitchell established a singular approach to abstraction over the course of her career. Her inventive reinterpretation of the traditional figure-ground relationship and synesthetic use of color set her apart from her peers, resulting in intuitively constructed and emotionally charged compositions that alternately evoke individuals, observations, places, and points in time. Art critic John Yau lauded her paintings as “one of the towering achievements of the postwar period.” Published on the occasion of the eponymous exhibition at David Zwirner New York in 2019, this book offers a unique opportunity to explore the range of scale and formal experimentation of this innovative area of Mitchell’s extensive body of work. It not only features reproductions of each painting in this selection as a whole, but also numerous details that allow an intimate understanding of the surface texture and brushwork. In the complementing essays, Suzanne Hudson examines boundaries, borders, and edges in Mitchell’s multipanel paintings, beginning with her first work of this kind, The Bridge (1956), considering them as both physical and conceptual objects; Robert Slifkin discusses the dynamics of repetition and energy in the artist’s paintings, in relation to works by Monet and Willem de Kooning, among others.

Vancouver Conceptualist Rodney Graham defies categorization by employing multiple styles and working in diverse media including photography, film, performance, music and text. One of the most gratifying artist's books ever to grace D.A.P.'s list, Wet on Wet: My Late Early Styles presents a new body of work reflecting on the practice of painting. For Wet on Wet Graham adopts the eccentric persona of the "gifted amateur," a recurrent figure in his recent work. He presents 22 oils and one acrylic work in a variety of styles, placing painting in the context of a post-medium practice. Graham credits music with informing much of his work. A musician himself, he views his role as an artist as an extension of the idea of performance. His work examines social and philosophical systems of thought, in particular those derived from the transition of the Enlightenment into Modernism.

Excerpt from Biographical Catalogue of the Principal Italian Painters: With a Table of the Contemporary Schools of Italy; Designed as a Hand-Book to the Picture Gallery; By a Lady I venture to present to the public this little Biographical Catalogue of the principal Italian painters, in the hope that it will be found useful as a companion to the picture galleries of Italy. My aim has been merely to give a short sketch, compiled from various authors, of the life and works of each artist, confining myself to the leading characteristics which distinguish them, and to the enumeration of their principal works. To Mr. Wornum, who has kindly undertaken the task of editing the work, I am under great obligations. His extensive knowledge on subjects connected with art, aided by the possession of a large collection of the more recent works in art literature, has enabled him not only to correct errors, but to supply much new and valuable information. A Tabular view of the Schools of Italian Painting will be found attached to the work, containing the names of those painters who have most influenced or contributed to the progress or vicissitudes of art. This Table has been constructed with care with reference to the different Schools. I trust that it will not only serve as an assistance to the memory, but that the synoptical view it presents will enable the reader to trace the growth and decline of art at particular periods, and be suggestive of many interesting deductions. Should the information which the book contains induce any one to seek from deeper sources further knowledge on this engrossing and elevating subject, I shall feel that my reward greatly exceeds my deserts. And should it meet with the approval of the public, I shall hope to proceed with a Catalogue of the artists of other countries.
