Manuel Neri (b. 1930), a California native and former student of Richard Diebenkorn and Nathan Oliveira, has spent a lifetime accentuating the gesture, surface, and materiality of the figure. He renders his work in several different mediums that include plaster, marble, bronze, and paper. This exhibition, drawn from and celebrating gifts donated to the museum by The Manuel Neri Trust, provides a glimpse into the artist's creative process and his quest to define the figure on his own terms. Manuel Neri is known for his prolonged artistic engagement with the figure in a variety of materials, starting with plaster in the late 1950s and moving into bronze and marble. The seven sculptures in the outdoor installation reference Neri's origins with plaster and his expressionistic manipulation of the medium. By casting plaster in bronze, tactile surfaces are preserved and enhanced. $c --Publisher's description from exhibition website, accessed 20180226. $u https://anderson.stanford.edu/programs-exhibitions/manuel-neri-assertion-of-the-figure/ 546 $a Text in English. 600 10 $a Neri, Manuel, $d 1930- $x Exhibitions. 600 10 $a Neri, Manuel, $d 1930- $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 10 $a Neri, Manuel, $d 1930- $x Themes, motives. 650 0 $a Relief (Sculpture) $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Human figure in art $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Sculpture, American $z California $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Sculpture, American $z California $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Mexican American artists $z California $y 20th century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Mexican American artists $z California $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Illustrated works. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Essays. $2 lcgft 700 12 $a Neri, Manuel, $d 1930- $e sculptor. $e sculptor. $t Works. $k Selections. 700 1 $a Nemerov, Alexander, $e author of introduction. 710 2 $a Anderson Collection at Stanford University, $e organizer. $e publisher, $e host institution, $e organizer. 752 $a United States $b California $d Stanford. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213021601.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AD4F57EE840811E89478B85797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
