His incredible imagery inspired his 81 students as well as artists throughout the world. From his 82 smaller works on paper to his larger paintings, they are all 83 unique and powerful. Hofmann has been called a Fauvist, Cubist, 84 but is mostly referred to as a key artist of <a href="http://www.abstractexpressionism.net" target="_blank">Abstract Expressionism</a> as well as creating a teaching <a href="https://shawnmcnulty.com/abstract-art-definition-characteristics/" target="_blank">definition of abstract art</a>.

Shapes, colors, lines, calligraphic 105 squiggles, and use of space always echo the reality found 106 in nature, but its structure rather than its appearance. In 107 his search for the real (as he titled his book, “The 108 Search for the Real and Other Essays” [1948]) Hofmann 109 produced a new type of landscape, one that is composed, not 110 of trees and land, but of the tension between its space, form, 111 color and planes. </font><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The 112 key to Hofmann’s paintings is his passion for nature, 113 whether perceived on location, from memory, or imagination. 114 He incessantly probed natural elements, focusing on volume, 115 and geometric forms in positive and negative spaces. Many <a href="https://natureartstore.com" target="blank">wildlife nature artists</a> take influence from his early landscapes. It was 116 the object, he said, that creates the negative or positive 117 space, not, as traditionally conceived, that an object is 118 placed in a space. If an object creates space, then it is 119 light that creates form. Similarly, light makes color in nature, 120 but color creates light in painting.</font></p> 121 <p align="center"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><img src="images/hans_hofmann_teaching_class.jpg" alt="Hans Hofmann looks on to a work in progress with his class." width="216" height="168" border="1"> <img src="images/1pixelwhite.jpg" width="30" height="1"> <img src="images/hofmann_rising_moon_small.jpg" alt="Hans Hofmann - Rising Moon 1964" width="157" height="168" border="1"> <img src="images/1pixelwhite.jpg" width="30" height="1"><img src="images/hofmann_silent_night_small.jpg" alt="Hans Hofmann - Silent Night 1964" width="158" height="168" border="1"> </font></p> 122 <p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Hofmann’s 123 life, physically and aesthetically, spanned from Post-Impressionism 124 to the New York School. He socialized with the likes of Picasso 125 and Matisse, and numerous other major artists in each generation, 126 including the Abstract Expressionists, while exhibiting in 127 prestigious and avant-garde venues. His work was generally 128 well received, but he was never a leader of a particular movement. 129 Hofmann was known as a synthesist because he brought together 130 traditional methods and avant-garde concepts concerning the 131 nature of painting, largely based on Cezanne, Kandinsky, and 132 Picasso’s Synthetic Cubism. Because teaching dominated 133 much of his creative life, his art was often critically measured 134 against his theories. With his European sensibilities and
135 his newly adopted American spirit, it needs to be remembered 136 that Hofmann’s work exemplifies a fusion of multiple 137 aspects of 20th century art. Hofmann, like most of the Abstract Expressionists, loved to listen to music. He had a vast collection of <a href="https://crazyforvinyl.com" target="_blank">vinyl records</a>, and usually listened to jazz and classical in the studio. In order to <a href="https://frugalmoneysavers.com" target="_blank">save money</a>, the Abstract Expressionists would often paint over old canvasses. Hofmann, however, was very meticulous and would never do that. Still is a huge influence on current well known modern painters such as <a href="https://cecilybrown.net" target="_blank">Cecily Brown</a>, <a href="https://essenhigh.com" target="_blank">Inka Essenhigh</a> and <a href="https://shawnmcnulty.com" target="_blank">Shawn McNulty.</a> 138 </font></p> 139 <TITLE></TITLE> 140 <!-- InstanceEndEditable --></section> 141 142 <aside id="sidebar"> 143 144
