{"product_id":"bernard-frize","title":"Bernard Frize","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eThis is the first full-length monograph on the paintings of Bernard Frize, an artist whose work straddles movements and styles from Color Field to Minimalism, Fluxus, and Conceptual Art. Frize''s works utilize a carefully constructed range of tools, processes, choreography, and collaboration to catalog, in complex and unexpected abstract form and color, the possibilities of his chosen materials. Emerging from the post-war School of Paris and Supports\/Surfaces groups, from the politicized 1970s onward, Frize swam against the tide of opinion regarding paintings apparent obsolescence to develop a painting practice that could express political commitment and social concerns, while avoiding both overt statement and pure decoration. David Rhodes text provides a detailed consideration of all stages of Frizes development, from the earliest works to the present, covering technical changes in picture-making, Frize''s changing position in relation to painting, as well as the wider conversation about painting itself and the evolution of the international art market.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57316338336126,"sku":"NW9781848223479","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781848223479.jpg?v=1778718401","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-usa\/products\/bernard-frize","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
