Tumlir argues for a universal theory of gesture that transcends both the discipline of painting and the human sphere Los Angeles–based author Jan Tumlir's (born 1962) The Endless Line furnishes us with two complementary theories of gesture and aesthetics, reconciling the thoughts of such figures as Immanuel Kant and Clement Greenberg on one end with those of André Leroi-Gourhan and Gilbert Simondon on the other.
Jan Tumlir’s 'The Endless Line' uncovers the concept, language, and theory of gesture in painting as it transitions through time—within and beyond the medium—evolving from the very site where such ruminations and pictorial experimentations begin: the classroom. I found this book to be an excellent resource and recommend it to painters at every stage of their development, from those just beginning to those with long-established practices. -- Laura Owens
