Author: Phyllis Hattis 341991 Title: Masterpieces from the William Rubin Collection
Description: Skira, 2024. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 400. This monograph celebrates William Rubin (1927-2006) and his impact on the world of modern art.0Renowned as the Director of Painting and Sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art from 1967?1988, Rubin was recognized for his infallible eye and resounding voice heard equally by contemporary post-WW II generations of artists, art historians, curators, and collectors on the world stage.0His unprecedented acquisitions for MoMA?s collection and the groundbreaking exhibitions that showcased them were accompanied by monographs that have become essential reading to the history of art.0These include: Picasso and Portraiture (1996), Picasso and Braque: Pioneering Cubism (1989), and perhaps most importantly ?Primitivism? in 20th Century Art: Affinity of the Tribal and the Modern (1984).0In contrast to previous volumes, this publication focuses on Rubin?s private collection? providing rare introspections on how he lived, what he wrote and the objects with which he surrounded himself.0These images illuminate a dialogue between tribal and modern masterpieces, beginning with the Cubist movement that invigorated the art of Cézanne for the early modernists as Picasso, Dubuffet, Giacometti, and Matisse by absorbing the power and innovation of tribal sculpture.
