Fabienne Verdier Painting Space

By (author) Doris von Drathen






| book description |

This is an illuminating look at the sculptural aesthetic of the work of contemporary painter Fabienne Verdier. There are rare painters who in their hearts are sculptors. Fabienne Verdier is one of these. And yet, a serious consideration of her painting in the context of sculpture has never been ventured until now. Art historian Doris von Drathen, whose writings teach a radical new way of thinking beyond aesthetic categories, has come to a lucid yet deeply philosophical understanding of this uncommon painter. Born in France, Verdier studied in China for more than a decade, and for the past thirty years she has pursued a painting practice that exists beyond abstraction, that constantly strives to transform observed complexity into its unqualified essence. This book contains two parts: an intimate conversation between the author and the artist, which provides unprecedented access to Verdier's studio process; and an expansive, monographic.
