Description
Etel Adnan was a poet, essayist and visual artist whose life and work are presented in this comprehensive monograph. Kaelen Wilson-Goldie explores Adnan's fascinating biography, identity and artistic development to illuminate the complexities of her paintings. Adnan began creating art relatively late in life, producing her first images in the late-1950s in response to the Californian landscape. Her vocabulary of lines, shapes and colours remained consistent over time, yet her paintings exhibit huge variations in mood, texture, composition and material. Wilson-Goldie skillfully unpacks Adnan's multi-layered career to capture the full scope of her artistic endeavours. This book offers a nuanced understanding of Adnan's work, balancing interpretations as pure abstractions with recognitions of actual landscapes inspired by the many places she loved and responded to.
