Book Synopsis Art Market Research by : Tom McNulty
Download or read book Art Market Research written by Tom McNulty and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-12-27 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for art market researchers at all levels. A brief overview of the global art market and its major stakeholders precedes an analysis of the various sales venues (auction, commercial gallery, etc.). Library research skills are reviewed, and advanced methods are explored in a chapter devoted to basic market research. Because the monetary value of artwork cannot be established without reference to the aesthetic qualities and art historical significance of our subject works, two substantial chapters detail the processes involved in researching and documenting the fine and decorative arts, respectively, and provide annotated bibliographies. Methods for assigning values for art objects are explored, and sources of price data, both in print and online, are identified and described in detail. In recent years, art historical scholarship increasingly has addressed issues related to the history of art and its markets: a chapter on resources for the historian of the art market offers a wide range of sources. Finally, provenance and art law are discussed, with particular reference to their relevance to dealers, collectors, artists and other art market stakeholders.

Book Synopsis Art, Exhibition and Erasure in Nazi Vienna by : Laura Morowitz
Download or read book Art, Exhibition and Erasure in Nazi Vienna written by Laura Morowitz and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-08-11 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines three exhibitions of contemporary art held at the Vienna Künstlerhaus during the period of National Socialist rule and shows how each attempted to culturally erase elements anathema to Nazi ideology: the City, the Jewess and fin-de-siècle Vienna. Each of the exhibits was large scale and ambitious, part of a broader attempt to situate Vienna as the cultural capital of the Reich, and each aimed to reshape cultural memory and rewrite history. Applying illuminating theories on memory studies, collective and public memory, and notions of "memoricide," this is the first book in English to focus on visual culture in the period when Austria was erased as a nation and incorporated into the Third Reich as "Ostmark." The organization, content and publications surrounding these three exhibits are explored in depth and set against the larger political changes and dangerous ideologies they reflect. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, museum studies, cultural history, memory studies, art and politics and Holocaust studies.

Download or read book Art Works written by Alistair Hicks and published by Merrell. This book was released on 2001 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "British and German artists, from Gerhard Richter to Damien Hirst, have helped to define the last forty years of art. Starting with Zero and Pop, and ending with Sensation artists and Ultra-modernists, Art Works offers a unique, fully illustrated survey of contemporary art. Drawn from one of the world's largest and most comprehensive collections of works on paper, that of Deutsche Bank, this book contains many pieces by famous artists such as Francis Bacon, Georg Baselitz, Sigmar Polke, Joseph Beuys and R.B. Kitaj, as well as by emerging artists such as Stepanek and Maslin and Susan Derges, most of which have remained unpublished until now." "The 48,000 works on paper now owned by Deutsche Bank have been bought for the staff and not as investments. The experience of working in a building with pieces by major contemporary artists is very different from - perhaps more rewarding than - a brief visit to a museum. The purpose of the collection, as well as offering a history of recent art, is to introduce staff to the work of young artists and to emphasize that art can play an important part in a working environment." "Here, for the first time, the disparate parts of the collection are brought together in a single book. With over 250 colour illustrations, specially commissioned artists' statements and a survey of the collection by art critic and curator Alistair Hicks, Art Works paints a vivid picture of the art of our time."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

The artist’s friendships with leading thinkers such as Erasmus and Thomas More, the development of his painting style, and the cultural influences on his work are all discussed here in this unparalleled and in-depth biography that will be essential to the bookshelf of every art lover. This second edition includes an expanded introduction and additional images.

Book excerpt: The original edition of this ambitious reference was published in hardcover in 1998, in two oversize volumes (10x13").

The scope is encyclopedic: half the work (originally the first volume) is devoted to painting; the other half to sculpture, new media, and photography. Chapters are arranged thematically, and each page displays several examples (in color) of work under discussion. The final section, a lexicon of artists, includes a small bandw photo of each artist, as well as biographical information and details of work, writings, and exhibitions. Ruhrberg and the three other authors are veteran art historians, curators, and writers, as is editor Walther. c. Book News Inc.

This book was released on 2023-06-19 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anniversary publication of the Belvedere The Belvedere in Vienna epitomizes the changes that have taken place over the course of three centuries in the concept of what constitutes a museum. Originally built by Prince Eugene of Savoy to enhance his prestige as a prince, under Maria Theresa, the Upper Belvedere became one of the world’s first public museums. The idea of presenting Austrian art in an international context, which in 1903 motivated the establishment of the Modern Gallery in the Lower Belvedere, remains the key objective of this world-famous cultural institution. In this critical homage, renowned authors explore enduring questions that transcend the different epochs, such as : What ordering concepts are evident in art presentation ? How contemporary were these presentations in an international context ? What kind of public were they aimed at ? Anniversary publication of the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere: a critical homage to a place of art with a diverse history spanning centuries Exhibition until January 7, 2024 With contributions from Johanna Aufreiter, Björn Blauensteiner, Brigitte Borchhardt-Birbaumer, Thomas DaCosta Kaufmann, Christiane Erharter, Nora Fischer, Anna Frasca-Rath, Antoinette Friedenthal, Martin Fritz, Thomas W.

Book Synopsis Schoenberg's Program Notes and Musical Analyses by : J. Daniel Jenkins
Download or read book Schoenberg's Program Notes and Musical Analyses written by J. Daniel Jenkins and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-07 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1950, as Arnold Schoenberg anticipated the publication of a collection of 15 of his most important writings, Style and Idea, he was already at work on a second volume to be called Program Notes. Inspired by this idea, Schoenberg's Program Notes and Musical Analyses can boast the most comprehensive study of the composer's writings about his own music yet published. Schoenberg's insights emerge not only in traditional program notes, but also in letters, sketch materials, pre-concert talks, public lectures, contributions to scholarly journals, newspaper articles, interviews, pedagogical materials, and publicity fliers. The editions of the texts in this collection, based almost exclusively on Schoenberg's original manuscript sources, include many items appearing in print in English for the first time, as well as more familiar texts that preserve musical and textual information eliminated from previous editions. The book also reveals how Schoenberg, desirous to communicate with and educate an audience, took every advantage of changes in technology during his lifetime, utilizing print media, radio broadcasts, record jackets--and had he lived, television--for this purpose. In addition to four chapters in which Schoenberg illuminates 42 of his own compositions, the book begins with chapters on his development and influences, his thoughts about trends in modern music, and, in a nod to the importance of the radio in providing a venue for music analysis, a chapter about Schoenberg's radio broadcasts.
Download or read book (Schmalix) written by Hubert Schmalix and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Austrian painter Hubert Schmalix is best-known as a Neo-Expressionist. In the late 1970s and early 80s, his powerfully colorful works explored the genres of the still life, landscape, nude and portrait in a process that became increasingly expressive, taking on a great affinity to the painters of Die Brücke. In the mid-1980s, the female nude became Schmalix's dominant subject, and he began to work in the tradition of colorful Asian woodcuts. In the 1990s, his vocabulary expanded through his encounter with West Coast school painting to include religious subjects, the image of Christ and cityscapes of Los Angeles. In his most recent works, Schmalix has reduced his palette, and, in the tradition of photographer Nobuyoshi Araki, devoted himself to the portrayal of the female nude in erotic bondage rituals. Featuring a representative selection of paintings, this book is the first to provide a survey of the artist's entire oeuvre.
