Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive survey lays out in chronological progression the lives and works of the artists whose masterpieces make up the history of European painting, from the late Gothic masters of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries to the Cubists and Surrealists of the early twentieth century, to the postmodernists of our own day. In the work of these artists we can observe the great movements of art history - the dawn of the Renaissance, the birth of Realism, and the rise of abstraction. The artists are represented by full-color illustrations of their most important and characteristic paintings, accompanied by concise, authoritative discussions of their life and work.

Download or read book Art and Politics of the Second Empire written by Patricia Mainardi and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Patricia Mainardi presents a new analysis of the major shift in nineteenth-century art from large public to small private works by examining the political and institutional factors that were in effect. Mainardi brings to life the complex institutional world of official art in the mid- to late-nineteenth century, presenting the relevant individual personalities, group interests, conflicts, and shift in a policy with clarity and detail. Writing in a lively, often witty style, she throws much new light on such subjects as the decline of history painting, the rise and eventual triumph of genre painting, the influence exerted in France by the art of England, Belgium, and Germany, and the inevitable collapse of the official exhibition system.

Download or read book Living Pictures, Missing Persons written by Mark B. Sandberg and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late nineteenth century, Scandinavian urban dwellers developed a passion for a new, utterly modern sort of visual spectacle: objects and effigies brought to life in astonishingly detailed, realistic scenes. The period 1880-1910 was the popular high point of mannequin display in Europe. Living Pictures, Missing Persons explores this phenomenon as it unfolded with the rise of wax museums and folk museums in the largest cities of Denmark, Sweden, and Norway. Mark Sandberg asks: Why did modernity generate a cultural fascination with the idea of effigy? He shows that the idea of effigy is also a portal to understanding other aspects of visual entertainment in that period, including the widespread interest in illusionistic scenes and tableaux, in the "portability" of sights, spaces, and entire milieus. Sandberg investigates this transformation of visual culture outside the usual test cases of the largest European metropolises. He argues that Scandinavian spectators desired an unusual degree of authenticity--a cultural preference for naturalism that made its way beyond theater to popular forms of museum display. The Scandinavian wax museums and folk-ethnographic displays of the era helped pre-cinematic spectators work out the social implications of both voyeuristic and immersive display techniques. This careful study thus anticipates some of the central paradoxes of twentieth-century visual culture--but in a time when the mannequin and the physical relic reigned supreme, and in a place where the contrast between tradition and modernity was a high-stakes game.

Book excerpt: Eight-year-old Edgar Fini's loyalty is torn between the two women in his life. There's his mother, Lucy, who, though she has moments where she loves him, mostly disappears at night with her various 'suitors'. And then there's his grandmother, Florence, who dotes on him to the point where she is at a loss when he isn't around. Since his father's suicide, Florence and Edgar's relationship has become obsessive, each fully dependent on the other. When Florence suddenly dies, Lucy is thrown into the role of main caretaker and doesn't know how to handle her new job. But as Edgar and Lucy adjust, they must also deal with Ron, a local butcher who wants to court Lucy, and Conrad, an unsettlingly attentive adult whose intentions are at one more sinister and more innocent than Edgar could ever know.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mud Witch Boy speaks in grunts, growls and whistles. He hears stories from the earth he digs and shapes.A figure riding a dog-like creature is etched high upon the canyon walls. Ancient pot shards show the same mysterious images. But not even the storyteller Dreaming Bear can tell you what these images mean or the story behind them. When the people lost their dreams, they forgot how to read the signs and images. They forgot their knowledge of "Animal Wisdom."For the prehistoric cave-dwelling people, life hasnt been the same since the explosion. Forced to leave the canyon they struggle to adjust to life out on the prairie and live in fear of the angry ghost animals that still reside high above them. Then comes Mud Boy-grunting the language of wild beasts. Constantly scratching images and symbols in the dirt, this mysterious creature-seemingly more animal than human-frightens the people with his strange behavior. But the boy has a message that could help them regain their harmony with nature-and learn to dream again. Can they look past what they dont understand to appreciate his important gift?Rich in symbolism, Mud Witch Boy examines the nature of the unknown and the forces of nature-and our place in it-for a powerful adventure that will not soon be forgotten.----- Connect With the True Meaning of Life by Daring to Dream. ----- "Mud Witch Boy of Ghost Canyon" Sheds Light on the Subject. - The Story of this enchanting childrens book takes us on a journey to a village void of dreams, where the people encounter problems similar to our own current troubled times.
