✦内容简介——

通过艺术家丰富多样的作品庆祝 1924 年艺术家乔治·西格尔 (George Segal) 诞辰 100 周年。

乔治·西格尔是二十世纪受欢迎和重要的美国艺术家之一。 即使那些不知道艺术家名字的人也能立即认出他幽灵般的人物。 他的作品在世界各地的博物馆和公共场所展出，并且他已经成为四次大型回顾展的主题。 当代艺术领域的杰出人物、大都会艺术博物馆最近举办的回顾展的主题查尔斯·雷 (Charles Ray) 在接受作者采访时雄辩地描述了西格尔对其艺术和生活的影响。 尽管这位艺术家作为雕塑家的重要性早已得到认可，但他在绘画、粉彩和摄影方面的作品却鲜为人知。 《乔治·西格尔：主题与变奏》审视了艺术家在所有媒体上的作品，将其视为他在漫长的职业生涯中挖掘的主题的一系列变体：人物群体、裸体、静物和肖像。 这本书及其配套文本包括超过七十五幅插图，将西格尔描绘成一位激进的实验者、一位传统主义者和一位永不停歇的创新者。

Celebrating the 100th anniversary of artist George Segal’s birth in 1924 through his expansive and varied works.

George Segal is one of the most popular and important American artists of the twentieth century. His ghostly figures are immediately recognizable, even by those who don’t know the artist’s name. His inimitable works are displayed in museums and public areas around the world, and he has been the subject of four major retrospectives. Charles Ray, a preeminent figure in contemporary art and the subject of a recent retrospective at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, eloquently describes Segal’s impact on his art and life in an interview with the author. While the artist’s significance as a sculptor has long been acknowledged, his work in painting, pastel, and photography is less well known. George Segal: Themes and Variations examines the artist’s work in all media as a series of variations on themes that he mined throughout his long career: figural groups, the nude, still life, and portraits. Including more than seventy-five illustrations, the book, along with its companion text presents Segal as a radical experimenter, a traditionalist, and a restless innovator.
