ISBN10: 1908970316, ISBN13: 9781908970312, [publisher: Art / Books] Hardcover London : Art/Books Publishing, 2017. Hardcover. Dustjacket. 288 pp. : illustrations (chiefly color), facsimiles, portraits ; 24 cm - Coinciding with a touring Tate exhibition of her work, this book is the first biography of influential abstract painter Princess Fahrelnissa Zeid (1901-1991), a pioneer of Turkish modern art whose rich life spanned the first ninety years of the twentieth century. She was woman of commanding magnetism and dramatic originality who forged a unique artistic path. Trained in Turkey and France, she is best known for her large-scale paintings that combine Islamic, Byzantine, Arab and Persian influences with stylistic elements developed in Europe during the postwar period. Born into a prominent family in Istanbul - her father was the brother of the Grand Vizier - she had a lifelong compulsion to paint, throughout the upheavals and tragedies that marked her cosmopolitan life as a child of the Ottoman upper bourgeoisie, and later as a member of the Iraqi Hashemite royal family living in Baghdad, Berlin, London, Paris, Ischia and Amman. Marked by a nervous breakdown in her forties, she broke free from the expectations of her social status to emerge as a leading figure of Turkish modernism. She went on to become a prominent member of the 1950s École de Paris abstract art movement, praised by André Breton and André Malraux. In the same decade, she was also one of the ...

ISBN10: 1908970316, ISBN13: 9781908970312, [publisher: Art / Books, London] Hardcover Hardcover. The story of Fahrelnissa Zeid's (1901-91) life is truly like no other. A Turkish noblewoman by birth and Iraqi princess by marriage, she was the first female artist to have a solo exhibition at London's prestigious Institute of Contemporary Arts. Friend and relative of kings, queens, and statesmen, and busy wife of an ambassador, she was also a leading figure of Turkish modernism in the 1940s and a prominent member of the avant-garde in postwar Paris, praised by fellow artists and critics alike. Despite her privileged background, she fought personal tragedy, psychological turmoil, and social and artistic prejudice to chart a unique and innovative path all of her own. She became celebrated in her lifetime for her monumental and dynamic abstract compositions that engulf the viewer in fields of colour, light, and energetic movement, as well as for her later expressionistic portraits of family and close friends. These works reflect her conception of art as a ceaseless forward quest, driven by a spiritual need to produce painterly renditions of cosmic journeys and inner psychic universes. Coinciding with a retrospective exhibition at Tate Modern, this book is written by a former student of the artist and based on unprecedented access to her private papers and personal archive. It provides a revisionist and definitive account of both her extraordinary life and the ...
