Black Light: Myth and Meaning in Modern Painting Paperback - 2009 - 1st Edition
by Francis Gooding
From the publisher
From the rear cover
Myths are never limited to place or time. They are ever-present as each epoch offers them a new guise. It may even be said that meaning itself is achieved by the same energies that animate myth. Black Light examines four paintings from the Modern tradition in the light of episodes from antique mythology. As the myths illuminate the paintings, and paintings throw light on the myths, Gooding shows that themes from ancient sources can be seen to resonate in modern representations. Tracing unexpected thematic correspondences across two millennia of literature and art, the author finds that wherever meaning is sought through interpretation, myth becomes an indispensable tool of analysis. In the work of classical authors such as Sophocles and Ovid, Gooding finds mythic elements which are also present in paintings by Manet, Matisse, Richards and Warhol. Opening a new dialogue between modern and ancient, Black Light explores living myth in modern paintings.
