Misspells and Cross-outs (but we still go home)
New Paintings by Ward Schumaker


 

Ward Shumaker 先生是一位多才的艺术家,他的作品曾被广泛
展出和出版。这次展出的一系列作品混合剪刻的文字及熟练流畅
的绘画笔触,是他多年来手工制作艺术书册积累下来的登峰之作。
画面上的文字取自于如印度教诗歌、欧洲音乐剧(Brecht and
Weill’s The Three-PennyOpera)等文学作品以及艺术家本人的
梦境,这些文字的本身也成为了画中的抽象视觉元素。

Ward Schumaker, a widely published, exhibited and versatile artist,
has created a series of paintings employing cut-paper texts, paint
spills and deft brushwork--the culmination of years of almost
exclusive book-making. The texts can be read as abstract shapes
or they can be read literally-the texts are derived from the Hindu
Gitas, European musical theater (Brecht and Weill’s The Three-Penny
Opera), and the artist’s dreams.

Working as a successful illustrator, Schumaker’s work has appeared
in over 150 periodicals, including Herme’s Catalog, the Los Angeles
Times, New York Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Kiplinger’s,
Hemispheres, New Yorker, Esquire Japan, and Le Monde. He has
illustrated two limited edition letterpress books for the famed Yolla
Bolly Press: Two Kitchens in Provence by MFK Fisher, and Paris France
by Gertrude Stein. His work on the Stein book won a silver medal
from the Society of Illustrators. He is author/illustrator of three children’s
books.

He has received awards from the AIGA, CA Illustration/Design
Annuals, Print Magazine, Graphis and American Illustration. His work
has been the subject of articles in Communication Arts, Print, Step-by-
Step, Design Journal (Korea), and Portfolio (Japan). With the Smithsonian Institution, Cooper Hewitt, National Design Museum in New York, he received a Federal Design Achievement Award for his work on “Unlimited by Design.” His work hangs in the Zimmerli Museum of Rutgers University and the Joslyn Art Museum. His books appear in numerous private collections, as well as the New York and Boston Public Libraries, Swathmore and Clairemont Colleges, and Stanford and Wake Forest Universities. The artist lives and works in San Francisco with his wife, artist Vivienne Flesher.
