Download or read book Arts précolombiens de l'Amérique centrale dans les collections du musée Barbier-Mueller de Barcelone written by Museu Barbier-Mueller Art Precolombí and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les sculptures et les céramiques de la collection Barbier-Mueller témoignent de la richesse de l'art précolombien du sud de l'Amérique centrale, et comptent parmi les plus beaux exemples de la création des anciens peuples du Nicaragua, du Costa Rica et de Panama, précédant le contact avec la culture européenne. Cet ouvrage nous permet de découvrir de splendides statues de pierre, des céramiques ou des peintures sur vases figurant souvent des hommes à tête animale ou des animaux à caractère anthropomorphe, liées au pouvoir et au symbolisme du monde surnaturel. En effet, les animaux de la mythologie remplissent de multiples fonctions dont la plus importante consiste à servir d'intermédiaires entre les forces supérieures et les forces inférieures : ce sont des représentants des sphères souterraine, terrestre et céleste. Le travail de l'artiste sert donc à transmettre une vision du monde religieux, politique et quotidien. C'est aussi l'occasion d'apprécier l'état actuel des dernières recherches dans la connaissance de ces cultures et d'offrir au lecteur un nouveau regard sur cette région.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le point de départ de cette étude se situe en 1875, avec le premier Congrès des américanistes et s’achève en 1945, avec la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale et la mort d’un des principaux artistes sélectionnés, Jean Puiforcat. Entre ces deux dates, il s’agit d’appréhender l’histoire des transferts culturels entre le Mexique, le Pérou et la France, en mettant d’abord l’accent sur les liens entre les intérêts diplomatiques et le développement culturel de l’américanisme. À partir de là, le regard se concentre sur l’évolution de la perception française des arts précolombiens au travers de l’analyse des expositions temporaires, du marché de l’art et des revues d’art en France.

Download or read book Renascent Empire? written by Glenn Joseph Ames and published by Amsterdam University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dit boek is gebaseerd op uitgebreid onderzoek in archieven in Portugal, India, Engeland en Frankrijk en is de eerste monografische studie van een cruciale, maar totnogtoe weinig bestudeerde periode in de geschiedenis van Portugals Aziatische rijk: de jaren 1640-1683. Ames' revisionistische werk laat zien dat in tegenstelling tot het traditionele beeld van onvermijdelijk verval en stagnatie in het Estado da India na 1640, deze jaren een vernieuwende en dynamische hervorming laten zien die de geo-politieke en economische stabilisatie van Portugees Azië rond 1683 tot gevolg hadden. Glenn Ames gaat in op de details van deze fundamentele verandering in het koloniale beleid jegens Azië zoals dat werd geïnitieerd door prins Regent Pedro van Braganza (1668-1702) en later zeer effectief in praktijk werd gebracht door Viceroy Luis de Medonça Furtado e Albuquerque.

Download or read book Pre-Columbian Art written by Hildegard Delgado Pang and published by . This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This profusely illustrated, up-to-date introduction to the pre-columbian art of Mesoamerica and Andean South America examines our conceptions of the ancient high cultures, the art they produced, and how our modern-day interpretations were achieved. The book is unique in that it draws on a great variety of scholarly disciplines to interpret the art forms. Since the 1960s our understanding of the Aztec, Maya, Inca, and Andean civilizations has increased dramatically through coordinated interdisciplinary research. In this summary of new and past investigations, Hilda Delgado Pang describes previously unknown historical figures and dynasties. In a clear and entertaining style, she tells how the pre-columbian artists validated their rulers, recorded rituals, portrayed the supernatural and astronomical cosmos, and commemorated transitions from life into death. As she describes the Mesoamerican and Andean high cultures, she also explains the special role that art plays in all societies, ancient and modern. Pre-columbian artists expressed themselves in sculpture and monumental architecture, glyphic notations, weavings, and painted ceramics--beginning about 2000 B.C. and, in some areas, continuing after the Spanish conquest. This new introductory text explores the contributions of epigraphy, formal and iconographic analyses, chemical and botanical identifications, and ethnographic and ethnohistorical sources to our knowledge of the major art styles: Olmec, Toltec, Maya, Aztec, Chavin, Paracas, Nasca, Moche, Tiahuanaco-Huari, Chimu, and Inca. From this book students and general readers will gain challenging insights into both the ancient art forms described and the fast-moving disciplines thatenergize research in the field today.

Book excerpt: In a collage of images the author attempts to convey the transformation of consumer culture and how it is related to the urban reshaping of the city of Cairo to meet with the demands of globalisation. Evidently Cairo ́s urban reshaping is taking place by pushing away the unwanted slums residents, which constitute the majority of the city ́s population.
