Cohen-Solal Annie Title : Picasso. Una vita da straniero
Author: Cohen-Solal Annie
Publisher: Marsilio

8 aprile 1973. Al momento della morte di Picasso, un profluvio di superlativi viene associato al suo nome. Lo Stato francese, in pompa magna, ne accoglie l'opera, assimilandola alla propria storia. Ma quanti sanno che all'artista era stata negata la naturalizzazione? Quanti immaginano il clima di sospetto e di esclusione di cui fu vittima, culminato nel gran rifiuto che il Louvre oppose nel 1929 alla donazione delle Demoiselles d'Avignon? Stimolata dalle molte contraddizioni che vede affiorare, Annie Cohen-Solal si lancia in una inedita quanto coraggiosa esplorazione del mondo insondabile di Picasso per sottrarre alla polvere degli archivi i segreti di una storia ancora tutta da raccontare. Viaggiando nello spazio e nel tempo si ritorna così all'ottobre 1900, quando Picasso giunge per la prima volta a Parigi da Barcellona; si attraversano i vicoli affascinanti di una Montmartre irripetibile; e si assiste alla crescita di un talento strategico sia come artista sia come uomo d'affari, capace di districarsi con naturalezza tra collezionisti e mercanti d'arte. Ed è forse proprio questa disinvoltura a far percepire il cubismo come un pericolo per «l'integrità morale» del paese: scoppia così la guerra del bene contro il male, della tradizione contro la modernità, della Francia della «gente per bene» contro i pericolosissimi «stranieri». Il racconto febbrile e appassionato di Annie Cohen-Solal giunge fino al presente sollevando nuovi interrogativi: «lo scandalo che vede il più grande artista del Novecento marchiato e schedato perché straniero non rimanda forse agli attuali rigurgi

Publisher: Prestel Pub

This volume of superb writing and lavish illustrations pays tribute to one of the most significant collections of contemporary art in the world and now a major new museum, The Broad in Los Angeles. For more than four decades Eli and Edythe Broad have fostered public appreciation of contemporary art through their collection of nearly 2,000 works, notable for its incredible sophistication and breadth. They operate the collection as a "lending library"
through an enterprising loan program to institutions around the world. This book highlights The Broad collection's depth by assembling a sharp cast of cultural leaders, writers, critics, and curators to share their insights, experiences, and diverse points of view on some of The Broad collection's most celebrated
artists. Readers will delight in essays by filmmaker John
Waters on Jeff Koons; music critic Greil Marcus on Christopher
Wool; novelist Siri Husvedt on Anselm Kiefer; travel writer and
essayist Pico Iyer on Takashi Murakami; Pulitzer Prize-winning
biographer Mark Stevens on Cy Twombly; and former Chief
Curator of Painting and Sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art,
New York, John Elderfield on Jasper Johns, among many other
pairings. Curated as carefully as an exhibition, this collection
of timeless images and timely writings gives readers a unique
pathway through this enormous, and enormously influential,
collection.

Cohen-Solal Annie Title : Mark Rothko
Author: Cohen-Solal Annie
Publisher: Yale Univ Pr

Mark Rothko was not only one of the most influential American painters of the twentieth century; he was a scholar, an educator, and a deeply spiritual human being. Born Marcus Yakovlevich Rotkovitch, he emigrated from the Russian Empire to the United States at age ten, already well educated in the Talmud and carrying with him bitter memories of the pogroms and persecutions visited upon the Jews of Latvia. Few artists have achieved success as quickly, and by the mid-twentieth century, Rothko’s artwork was being displayed in major museums throughout the world. In May 2012 his painting Orange, Red, Yellow was auctioned for nearly $87 million, setting a new Christie’s record.

Author Annie Cohen-Solal gained access to archival materials no previous biographer had seen. As a result, her book is an extraordinarily detailed portrait of Rothko the man and the artist, an uncommonly successful painter who was never comfortable with the idea of his art as a commodity.

Cohen-Solal Annie, Goldberger Paul, Gottlieb Robert Title : New York Mid-century
Author: Cohen-Solal Annie, Goldberger Paul, Gottlieb Robert
Publisher: Vendome Pr

"New York Mid-Century is a sparkling account of Gotham at the moment it became the cultural center of the world. It is the work of three masters of their genres. In their hands the mid-century city leaps to life and its history engages us on every page." —Donald L. Miller, author of Supreme City: How Jazz Age Manhattan Gave Birth to Modern America

New York Mid-Century is the story of how the postwar Big Apple emerged as the cultural capital of the world. Annie Cohen-Solal brings alive the influential critics and patrons, the legendary galleries, and the artists themselves. Paul Goldberger presents the modernist architectural masterpieces that created the city’s sleek new profile, highlighting both public and private spaces. Robert Gottlieb invites us to relive the heyday of the musical, explore the great jazz clubs of Harlem, and peek into the inventive studios of the dance world. Richly illustrated with art, photographs, and ephemera, this volumeis a stirring collection of a remarkably fertile period in the city’s history.

Cohen-Solal Annie, Polizzotti Mark (TRN) Title : Leo and His Circle
Author: Cohen-Solal Annie, Polizzotti Mark (TRN)
Publisher: Alfred a Knopf Inc

Leo Castelli reigned for decades as America's most influential art dealer. Now Annie Cohen-Solal, author of the hugely acclaimed Sartre: A Life (“an intimate portrait of the man that possesses all the detail and resonance of fiction”—Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times), recounts his incalculably influential and astonishing life in Leo and His Circle.

After emigrating to New York in 1941, Castelli would not open a gallery for sixteen years, when he had reached the age of fifty. But as the first to exhibit the then-unknown Jasper Johns, Castelli emerged as a tastemaker overnight and fast came to champion a virtual Who's Who of twentieth-century masters: Rauschenberg, Lichtenstein, Warhol, and Twombly, to name a few. The secret of Leo's success? Personal devotion to the artists, his “heroes”: by putting young talents on stipend and seeking placement in the ideal collection rather than with the top bidder, he transformed the way business was done, multiplying the capital, both cultural and financial, of those he represented. His enterprise, which by 1980 had expanded to an impressive network of satellite galleries in Europe and three locations in New York, thus became the unrivaled commercial institution in American art, producing a generation of acolytes, among them Mary Boone, Jeffrey Deitch, Larry Gagosian, and Tony Shafrazi.

Leo and His Circle
brilliantly narrates the course of one man's power and influence. But Castelli had another secret, too: his life as an Italian Jew. Annie Cohen-Solal traces a family whose fortunes rose and fell for centuries before the Castellis fled European fascism. Never hidden but also never discussed, this experience would form the core of a guarded but magnetic character possessed of unfailing old-world charm and a refusal to look backward—traits that ensured Castelli's visionary precedence in every major new movement from Pop to Conceptual and by which he fostered the worldwide enthusiasm for American contemporary art that is his greatest legacy.

Drawing on her friendship with the subject, as well as an uncanny knack for archival excavation, Annie Cohen-Solal gives us in full the elegant, shrewd, irresistible, and enigmatic figure at the very center of postwar American art, bringing an utterly new understanding of its evolution.

Cohen-Solal Annie Title : Leo & C. Storia di Leo Castelli
Author: Cohen-Solal Annie
Publisher: Johan & Levi

«Non sono un mercante d'arte, sono un gallerista» amava ripetere Leo Castelli. Per i suoi artisti è stato molto di più: un mecenate. Dall'apertura della prima galleria nel 1957 fino alla morte nel 1999, Castelli domina la vita culturale newyorkese ed eleva lo status dell'artista americano, che in quegli anni raggiunge la vetta più alta nel panorama artistico mondiale. Con lui si afferma la figura del gallerista polivalente. Imprenditore e infaticabile scopritore alla perenne ricerca del nuovo, è pronto a correre rischi e a servirsi delle strategie commerciali più efficaci per dare visibilità ai suoi protetti. Affiancato da Ileana Sonnabend - ex moglie con cui mantiene un rapporto di grande complicità - Castelli incoraggia i talenti emergenti e li promuove presso le istituzioni museali. Tramite una vasta rete di rapporti internazionali reinventa le regole del mercato e rivoluziona la cultura artistica stessa. La scoperta di Jasper Johns, suo artista feticcio, e la consacrazione di Robert Rauschenberg alla Biennale di Venezia del 1964 sono solo i primi colpi messi a segno. Si susseguono numerose altre epifanie - Frank Stella, Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol, James Rosenquist, Cy Twombly, per citarne solo alcuni - che lo confermano come creatore di miti. Ma chi è Leo Castelli, l'uomo che ha atteso i cinquant'anni per aprire la sua prima galleria? Dietro il carisma di europeo affabile e mediatico si nasconde un uomo dalle molteplici identità. Nato nel 1907 a Trieste da genitori ebrei, Leo trascorre i primi trent'anni nelle grandi città d'Europa - Vienna, Milano, Budapest, Bucares

Sartre Jean-paul, Macomber Carol (TRN), Cohen-Solal Annie (INT), Elkaim-Sartre Arlette (CON), Kulka John (EDT) Title : Existentialism Is a Humanism
Author: Sartre Jean-paul, Macomber Carol (TRN), Cohen-Solal Annie (INT), Elkaim-Sartre Arlette (CON), Kulka John (EDT)
Publisher: Yale Univ Pr

It was to correct common misconceptions about his thought that Sartre accepted an invitation to speak on October 29, 1945, at the Club Maintenant in Paris. The unstated objective of his lecture (?Existentialism Is a Humanism”) was to expound his philosophy as a form of ?existentialism,” a term much bandied about at the time. Sartre asserted that existentialism was essentially a doctrine for philosophers, though, ironically, he was about to make it accessible to a general audience. The published text of his lecture quickly became one of the bibles of existentialism and made Sartre an international celebrity.
The idea of freedom occupies the center of Sartre's doctrine. Man, born into an empty, godless universe, is nothing to begin with. He creates his essence?his self, his being?through the choices he freely makes (?existence precedes essence”). Were it not for the contingency of his death, he would never end. Choosing to be this or that is to affirm the value of what we choose. In choosing, therefore, we commit not only ourselves but all of mankind.
This edition of Existentialism Is a Humanism is a translation of the 1996 French edition, which includes Arlette Elkaïm-Sartre's introduction and a Q&A with Sartre about his lecture. Paired with ?Existentialism Is a Humanism” is another seminal Sartre text, his commentary on Camus's The Stranger. In her foreword, intended for an American audience, acclaimed Sartre biographer Annie Cohen-Solal offers an assessment of both works.

Cohen-Solal Annie Title : Americani per sempre. I pittori di un mondo nuovo (Parigi 1867-New York 1948)
Author: Cohen-Solal Annie
Publisher: Johan & Levi

Il libro offre un'approfondita e articolata analisi storica e sociale che ripercorre le tappe dell'affrancamento dell'arte americana dal dominio culturale europeo. Annie Cohen-Solal racconta con ricche testimonianze gli ottant'anni di questa epocale transizione: dalla "colonizzazione artistica" dell'America da parte dei pittori europei (Monet, Matisse, Cézanne e Picasso) alla creazione di una scuola americana sostenuta da autori trasferitisi proprio dal Vecchio Continente (Robert Henri, Alfred Stieglitz, Marcel Duchamp); dalla proliferazione dei grandi collezionisti americani ai finanziamenti governativi, fino all'affermazione di New York quale nuovo centro dell'arte mondiale. E da New York la cultura artistica si estende a tutte le principali città americane dando vita a una crescente sensibilità per l'arte moderna, sensibilità che richiamerà una moltitudine di artisti europei, in fuga dalla Seconda guerra mondiale: l'arte americana, indipendente e sperimentatrice, si afferma e domina il mondo.

Annie Cohen-Solal Title : Sartre
Author: Annie Cohen-Solal
Publisher: The New Press

The internationally acclaimed biography of Sartre in celebration of the 100th anniversary of his birth. The first volume in the Lives of the Left series, Annie Cohen-Solal's Sartre is a remarkable achievement. "A sensation" upon its initial publication in France, as the New York Times reported, Sartre was subsequently translated into sixteen languages and went on to become an international bestseller, appealing to the broadest audience. First published in the United States in 1987, it is the definitive biography of a man and an age, an intimate portrait of a complex life. A major accomplishment of this biography is that it places Sartre in the context of history while at the same time reassessing the full import of his literary and political accomplishments. Discovering untold aspects of Sartre's private and political life, Cohen-Solal weaves together all the elements of an exceptional career. From the fascinating description of his hitherto-unknown father to the painful last moments of Sartre's own declining years, this is biography on the grandest scale, fully deserving of the praise it has received.
