Influenced by Nietzsche, Hegel, and Schopenhauer, he concerned himself with issues related to representation theory, coined the term “art world,” and posited the end of traditional art. One of the art philosopher’s primary interests was the New York School—Abstract Expressionism. He considered the highly esteemed oeuvre of his friend Sean Scully to be its continuation and further development. “Scully’s historical importance lies in the way he has brought the great achievement of Abstract Expressionist painting into the contemporary moment.” Danto devoted a series of essays to the abstract stripe paintings by the Irish artist (*1945 in Dublin).

The oeuvre of the Irish-born artist, who grew up in London and moved to New York in 1975, is characterized by an intense confrontation with Abstract Expressionism, Action Painting, and Minimalism. Beyond a purely formal exploration of color, form, plane and light in his abstract paintings and sculptures, his visual expressiveness is matched by intellectually engaging writings and lectures. Scully lives and works in New York, Barcelona and near Munich.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49755242234120,"sku":"9783775752800","price":44.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775752800_25a229b6-8590-43ef-a004-43d7bfa579fa.jpg?v=1744133708"},{"product_id":"59674-sean-scully","title":"Sean Scully","description":"In his large-format paintings, Sean Scully layers colors to create opulent works. The pictorial composition is usually strictly divided into vertical and horizontal stripes, while the application of paint is gestural and emotional. This results in the Walls of Light, poetic color-walls of great physical power, both powerful and permeable at the same time.\u003cbr\u003eThe catalog for the exhibition at the Langen Foundation is dedicated to the musicality of Scully's abstract compositions and their interplay with the power of color. The spectrum ranges from delicate paper works of the late 1960s, through his expansive paintings, to the monumental steel and iron sculptures of recent years, with which Scully's idea of art leaves the exhibition space and transcends into the outside world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSEAN SCULLY (*1945, Dublin) is one of the most important contemporary artists.

Sean Scully and Kelly Grovier counter this with moving duets of poems and drawings, each dedicated to the individual beauty of a single bird species. Scully's imagery, at once thoughtful and emphatic, geometric and free-flowing, captures the essence of these feathered creatures. This first series of iPhone drawings showcases Scully's distinctive style, yet also reveals a new intimacy, playfulness and exuberance of gestures, colours and forms. Together, Grovier and Scully evoke a sense of loss from which empathy grows: \"Hope,\" as Emily Dickinson wrote, \"is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSEAN SCULLY (born 1945, Dublin) is one of the most renowned artists of his generation.

The book illuminates Scully’s connection to Long Island on the East Coast of the United States and a significant shift in his artistic practice during a stay in Montauk in 1982. During a residency at the Edward F. Albee Foundation, Scully found inspiration in the natural landscape at the eastern end of the island. His color palette changed, incorporating deep, earthy tones and whites into his vocabulary. This paradigm shift led to a change in Scully’s style and thematic approach and became formative for his characteristic painting style.
