Book Synopsis Fictions of Art History by : Mark Ledbury
Download or read book Fictions of Art History written by Mark Ledbury and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIV Fictions of Art History, the most recent addition to the Clark Studies in the Visual Arts series, addresses art history’s complex relationships with fiction, poetry, and creative writing. Inspired by a 2010 conference, the volume examines art historians’ viewing practices and modes of writing. How, the contributors ask, are we to unravel the supposed facts of history from the fictions constructed in works of art? How do art historians employ or resist devices of fiction, and what are the effects of those choices on the reader? In styles by turns witty, elliptical, and plain-speaking, the essays in Fictions of Art History are fascinating and provocative critical interventions in art history. /div
Book Synopsis The Art of Creative Writing by : Lajos Egri
Download or read book The Art of Creative Writing written by Lajos Egri and published by Citadel Press. This book was released on 2020-12-29 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One of the few truly helpful books on fiction writing.” —Chicago Tribune Go beyond Stephen King’s On Writing to master the fundamentals of great storytelling with this foundational guide that reveals the essential elements of what makes the best fiction. The Art of Creative Writing is a timeless testament to the power of dialogue and character development that is accessible for every level of writer from beginner to established author. As in the bestselling The Art of Dramatic Writing, still considered one of the most essential books on playwriting more than 75 years after publication, the author outlines in detail his highly acclaimed Egri Method of Creative Writing and shows how to apply it to all fiction formats—novels, short stories, and screenplays. Grounded in Egri’s assertion that “Every type of creative writing depends upon the credibility of a character,” here is concise, clear advice on the most important element of good writing: characterization. Step by step, Egri shows writers how to probe the secrets of human motivation to create flesh-and-blood characters who create suspense and conflict, and who grow emotionally under stress and strain. As practical as it is inspiring, The Art of Creative Writing remains a timeless, illuminating guide that teaches every writer, and aspiring writer, how to create works that are both compelling and enduring.
Book Synopsis Principles of Art History Writing by : David Carrier
Download or read book Principles of Art History Writing written by David Carrier and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Principles of Art History Writing traces the changes in the way in which writers about art represent the same works. These differ in such deep ways as to raise the question of whether those at the beginning of the process even saw the same things as those at the end did. Carrier uses four case studies to identify and explain changing styles of restoration and the history of interpretation of selected works by Piero, Caravaggio, and van Eyck." -- Back cover

Download or read book Look! written by Anne D'Alleva and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 2010 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For one or two semester Introductory Art History Survey courses. This handbook is designed to accompany the major textbooks used in the art history survey, presenting various methods for analysis of art as well as extensive tips on writing about art. Professor Anne D'Alleva created this handbook to accompany the major textbooks used in art history survey courses. Because the main survey texts focus on the artworks themselves, she saw the need for a complementary handbook that introduces students to the methodologies of art history in an open, accessible way. Look! discusses basic art historical practices, such as visual and contextual analysis, and provides guidelines for writing papers and taking examinations in art history. It provides a short history of the discipline and provides links to related academic disciplines to provide students with a sense of intellectual context for their work.
Book Synopsis Historical Research, Creative Writing, and the Past by : Kevin A. Morrison
Download or read book Historical Research, Creative Writing, and the Past written by Kevin A. Morrison and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-12 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although historical research undertaken in different disciplines often requires speculation and imagination, it remains relatively rare for scholars to foreground these processes explicitly as a knowing method. Historical Research, Creative Writing, and the Past brings together researchers in a wide array of disciplines, including literary studies and history, ethnography, design, film, and sound studies, who employ imagination, creativity, or fiction in their own historical scholarship or who analyze the use of imagination, creativity, or fiction to make historical claims by others. This volume is organized into four topical sections related to representations of the past—textual and conceptual approaches; material and emotional approaches; speculative and experiential approaches; and embodied methodologies—and covers a variety of temporal periods and geographical contexts. Reflecting on the methodological, theoretical, and ethical underpinnings of writing history creatively or speculatively, the essays situate themselves within current debates over epistemology and interdisciplinarity. They yield new insights into historical research methods, including archival investigations and source criticisms, while offering readers tangible examples of how to do history differently.
Book Synopsis Writing and Unwriting (Media) Art History by : Joasia Krysa
Download or read book Writing and Unwriting (Media) Art History written by Joasia Krysa and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2015-09-11 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A critical mapping of the multiplicities of Finnish artist and technology pioneer Erkki Kurenniemi—composer of electronic music, experimental filmmaker, inventor, collector, futurologist. Over the past forty years, Finnish artist and technology pioneer Erkki Kurenniemi (b. 1941) has been a composer of electronic music, experimental filmmaker, computer animator, roboticist, inventor, and futurologist. Kurenniemi is a hybrid—a scientist-humanist-artist. Relatively unknown outside Nordic countries until his 2012 Documenta 13 exhibition, ”In 2048,” Kurenniemi may at last be achieving international recognition. This book offers an excavation, a critical mapping, and an elaboration of Kurenniemi's multiplicities. The contributors describe Kurenniemi's enthusiastic, and rather obsessive, recording of everyday life and how this archiving was part of his process; his exploratory artistic practice, with productive failure an inherent part of his method; his relationship to scientific and technological developments in media culture; and his work in electronic and digital music, including his development of automated composition systems and his “video-organ,” DIMI-O. A “Visual Archive,” a section of interviews with the artist, and a selection of his original writings (translated and published for the first time) further document Kurenniemi's achievements. But the book is not just about one artist in his time; it is about emerging media arts, interfaces, and archival fever in creative practices, read through the lens of Kurenniemi.

Book Synopsis What Is Interesting Writing in Art History? by : James Elkins
Download or read book What Is Interesting Writing in Art History? written by James Elkins and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-12 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing is scarcely taught in art history, visual studies, and art theory, except for commonplace advice about clarity, organization, and concision. Yet in language departments and in literary criticism, writing is the subject of complex and intensive critique. This book is about ways that art history, in particular, can engage the extensive discourse on writing that has developed since the 1960s.Part One offers a preliminary definition of what might count as "interesting" or "experimental" writing on art; in three short chapters it surveys the recalcitrance of art history, visual culture, and art criticism when it comes to engaging writing as anything other than an expository tool.There is no consensus, in art history, about which art historians are exemplary in terms of writing, and which could be models for future work. Part Two offers detailed close readings of exemplary texts by Rosalind Krauss, T.J. Clark, Alexander Nemerov, and others, including writers not normally considered as art historians, including H�l�ne Cixous and Gilles Deleuze. These are unlike existing reviews and essays, because they consider these texts as writing rather than as contributions to history or theory. Part Three briefly sets out some relevant terms such as "criticism," "critique," and "criticality," and then offers a longer survey of viable concepts of the essay, divided into eleven headings. The essay is a traditionally ill-defined category, so it is helpful to explore the range of meanings it has been given in order to see which might be appropriate for writing on art. The book concludes with a chapter surveying the institutions in North America and Europe that teach "experimental" writing on art, usually in programs on criticism or philosophy.This is the first of two books exploring theories of writing that engages or incorporates images. Book 2, Writing with Images, expands the subject by considering fiction and images beyond art.

Download or read book Radio Iris written by Anne-Marie Kinney and published by Two Dollar Radio. This book was released on 2012-05-15 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Radio Iris has a lovely, eerie, anxious quality to it. Iris's observations are funny, and the story has a dramatic otherworldly payoff that is unexpected and triumphant." —Deb Olin Unferth, The New York Times Book Review "A noirish nod to the monotony of work." —O: The Oprah Magazine "Kinney is a Southern California Camus." —Los Angeles Magazine "'The Office' as scripted by Kafka." —Minneapolis Star-Tribune "[An] astute evocation of office weirdness and malaise." —The Wall Street Journal Radio Iris follows Iris Finch, a twentysomething socially awkward daydreamer and receptionist at Larmax, Inc., a company whose true function she doesn’t understand (though she’s heard her boss refer to himself as “a businessman”). Gradually, her boss’ erratic behavior becomes even more erratic, her coworkers begin disappearing, the phone stops ringing, making her role at Larmax moot, and a mysterious man appears to be living in the office suite next door. Radio Iris is an ambient, eerie dream of a novel, written with remarkable precision and grace that could also serve as an appropriate allegory for our modern recession. Anne-Marie Kinney’s short fiction has appeared or is forthcoming in Indiana Review, Black Clock, Keyhole, and Satellite Fiction.
Book Synopsis Scenography and Art History by : Astrid Von Rosen
Download or read book Scenography and Art History written by Astrid Von Rosen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-05-20 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scenography and Art History reimagines scenography as a critical concept for art history, and is the first book to demonstrate the importance and usefulness of this concept for art historians and scholars in related fields. It provides a vital evaluation of the contemporary importance of scenography as a critical tool for art historians and scholars from related branches of study addressing phenomena such as witchy designs, Early Modern festival books, live rock performances, digital fashion photography, and outdoor dance interventions. With its nuanced and detailed case studies, this book is an innovative contribution to ongoing debates within art history and visual studies concerning multisensory events. It extends the existing literature by demonstrating the importance of a reimagined scenography concept for comprehending historical and contemporary art histories and visual cultures more broadly. The book contends that scenography is no longer restricted to the traditional space of the theatre, but has become an important concept for approaching art historical and contemporary objects and events. It explores scenography not solely as a critical approach and theoretical concept, but also as an important practice linked with unrecognized labour and broader political, social and gendered issues in a great variety of contexts, such as festive culture, sacred settings, fashion, film, or performing arts. Designed as a key resource for students, teachers and researchers in art history, visual studies, and related subjects, the book, through its cross-disciplinary frame, does consider, implicitly and explicitly, the roles of both scenography and art in society.
