Book Synopsis Rethinking Boucher by : Melissa Lee Hyde
Download or read book Rethinking Boucher written by Melissa Lee Hyde and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2006 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Unequivocally a modern, Francois Boucher (1703-70) defined the French artistic avant-garde throughout his career. Yet the triumph of modernist aesthetics - with its focus on the self-critical, the autonomous, and the intellectually challenging - has long discouraged art historians and other viewers from taking Boucher's playful and alluring works seriously. Rethinking Boucher revisits the cultural meanings and reception of his diverse oeuvre, inviting us to revise the interpretive cliches by which we have sought to tame this artist and his epoch."--BOOK JACKET.
Book Synopsis Architectural Space in Eighteenth-Century Europe by : Meredith Martin
Download or read book Architectural Space in Eighteenth-Century Europe written by Meredith Martin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architectural Space in Eighteenth-Century Europe: Constructing Identities and Interiors explores how a diverse, pan-European group of eighteenth-century patrons - among them bankers, bishops, bluestockings, and courtesans - used architectural space and décor to shape and express identity. Eighteenth-century European architects understood the client's instrumental role in giving form and meaning to architectural space. In a treatise published in 1745, the French architect Germain Boffrand determined that a visitor could "judge the character of the master for whom the house was built by the way in which it is planned, decorated and distributed." This interdisciplinary volume addresses two key interests of contemporary historians working in a range of disciplines: one, the broad question of identity formation, most notably as it relates to ideas of gender, class, and ethnicity; and two, the role played by different spatial environments in the production - not merely the reflection - of identity at defining historical and cultural moments. By combining contemporary critical analysis with a historically specific approach, the book's contributors situate ideas of space and the self within the visual and material remains of interiors in eighteenth-century Europe. In doing so, they offer compelling new insight not only into this historical period, but also into our own.

Download or read book Tapisseries 1925 written by Jehanne Lazaj and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1925, Paris : l'Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs ouvre ses portes et offre aux yeux des visiteurs des oeuvres somptueuses, marquées par l'historicisme du XIXe siècle, influencées par l'Art nouveau et empreintes de modernité. Un univers à nul autre pareil, qui reflète un art de vivre où le luxe des matériaux éblouit autant que les formes nouvelles. Au gré des stands et pavillons s'étalent les meubles des meilleurs ébénistes de l'époque, garnis de tapisseries réalisées par les manufactures nationales de Beauvais et des Gobelins et par celles, privées, d'Aubusson et de l'Ecole nationale d'art décoratif d'Aubusson. A l'occasion de l'exposition "Tapisserie Art déco : Aubusson, Beauvais, les Gobelins à l'Exposition des arts décoratifs de 1925, Paris" (juin-octobre 2012), cet ouvrage déroule la trame de l'art des lissiers, le magnifie et révèle un foisonnement de styles propre à une période de prospérité et de paix retrouvée. La Cité internationale de la tapisserie et de l'art tissé, portée par la région Limousin, le conseil général de la Creuse et la communauté de communes d'Aubusson-Felletin, soutenue par l'Etat, bénéficie de la reconnaissance de la tapisserie d'Aubusson par l'UNESCO et développe trois objectifs : la mise en valeur du patrimoine, la transmission du savoir-faire, l'excellence dans la création contemporaine. Le Mobilier national, héritier du Garde-Meuble de la Couronne, assure l'ameublement des palais officiels de la République. Il conserve, restaure dans ses ateliers et présente ses collections lors d'expositions. Les manufactures des Gobelins, de Beauvais et de la Savonnerie, qui lui sont rattachées depuis 1937, perpétuent la tradition de la tapisserie et du tapis depuis le XVIIe siècle, en tissant des modèles contemporains.

Book Synopsis Decorum by : Musée d'art moderne de la ville de Paris
Download or read book Decorum written by Musée d'art moderne de la ville de Paris and published by Skira. This book was released on 2013 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decorum dévoile, à l'instar de l'exposition éponyme du musée d'Art moderne de la Ville de Paris, autant des tapis et tapisseries d'artistes célèbres, majoritairement du XXe siècle, que des chefs-oeuvre tissés d'artistes encore trop méconnus : William Morris, Anni Albers, les Omega Workshops, Francis Bacon, Jean Lurçat, Le Corbusier, Pablo Picasso, Sonia Delaunay, Victor Vasarely, Louise Bourgeois, François-Xavier Lalanne, Josep Grau-Garriga, Magdalena Abakanowicz, Olga de Amaral, Sheila Hicks, Judith Scott, Franz West, John M Armleder, Présence Panchounette, Mike Kelley, Caroline Achaintre, Pae White... Occident et Orient, art et artisanat, tradition et expérimentation, mur et sol, se mêlent et s'entremêlent dans un parcours thématique qui revisite les notions clés de l'histoire de l'art : le pictural, le sculptural, le décoratif, orientalismes et primitivismes, pour offrir une réflexion nouvelle et décloisonnée de ce médium. Cet ouvrage, conçu pour livrer le regard d'un amateur éclairé, reprend la trame de l'exposition tout en évoquant des indices de la scénographie pensée par l'artiste Marc Camille Chaimowicz. Enrichi par des essais dont les auteurs ont été choisis pour la complémentarité de leurs approches - des gender studies à la littérature comparée en passant par l'histoire de l'art, la philosophie et la musicologie -, ce livre se veut être un hommage à la richesse des oeuvres et à la diversité des artistes exposés.
Download or read book Les tapis written by Enza Milanesi and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sujet passionnant s'il en est, tant pour le simple amateur de " belles choses " que pour le spécialiste de l'histoire de l'art, les tapis méritaient qu'on leur consacre un ouvrage complet, accessible à tous et, bien entendu, superbement illustré. Qu'est-ce qui distingue, en effet, un tapis persan d'un tapis indien ? Comment reconnaître un exemplaire Ghiordès ? Et un Chirvan ? En quoi un produit nomade se différencie-t-il d'un tapis de village ? Qu'est-ce que le motif hérati ? Qu'appelle-t-on tapis de chasse ? Fourmillant d'informations et d'explications aussi claires qu'indispensables, ce guide - d'un format particulièrement pratique - livre toutes les réponses. Qui plus est, ses nombreux dessins et ses splendides photographies permettront à chacun de définir, de reconnaître et de classer les pièces auxquelles il est confronté. Un ouvrage irremplaçable, qu'il s'agisse d'approfondir la signification du tapis au cours des âges, sa symbolique parfois, ou de s'initier aux techniques, à la diversité des matériaux, à la répartition des décors ou à l'infinie richesse des motifs. Un authentique guide d'identification des tapis depuis les origines.
