简介
在烤盘和外卖餐盒上创作的华丽抽象画，出自纽约艺术界备受喜爱的人物之手。近五十年来，纽约艺术家B. Wurtz（生于1948年）一直将平凡的材料和废弃物品转化为幽默而略带讽喻的艺术作品。这本全彩精装专著集中呈现了他标志性的“烤盘画”系列——在一次性铝制烤盘和外卖餐盒上创作而成。1990年，Wurtz发现了这些批量生产产品底部压印的图案，并敏锐地捕捉到了它们作为“现成抽象画”的潜力。此后三十年里，他利用各种形状和大小的烤盘，根据这些现成图案进行色彩组合，创作出令人惊艳的抽象作品。这本书首次系统性地回顾了这一长期创作系列在色彩和形状上的诸多变化，并收录了艺术史学家兼策展人Erica Cooke的文章，探讨了这批作品与二战后美国手工艺精神和业余文化之间的深层联系。

Gorgeous abstractions on roasting pans and takeout containers from a beloved figure of the New York art world. For nearly five decades New York-based artist B. Wurtz (born 1948) has transformed humble materials and discarded objects into humorous and wryly beautiful works of art. This full-color, Swiss-bound monograph focuses on the artist's iconic series of "pan paintings" made on disposable aluminum roasting pans and to-go containers. In 1990, Wurtz discovered patterns stamped in the bottom of these mass-produced products and grasped their potential as "readymade abstract paintings." In the three decades since, he has worked across a wide variety of pan shapes and sizes, applying dazzling combinations of color using the patterns as predetermined compositions. Pan Paintings provides the first overview of the various permutations in color and shape that comprise this long-term series. The book includes an essay by art historian and curator Erica Cooke which considers this critically acclaimed body of work and its deep entanglement with the craft-oriented ethos and amateur culture of postwar America.
