Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new exploration of Piranesi’s work as a draftsman, published to coincide with an exhibition at the British Museum. The Venetian-born artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi (1720–1778) is best known for his dramatic etchings of the architecture and antiquities of his adopted home city of Rome and for his extraordinary flights of spatial fancy, such as Le Carceri (“Prisons”). Published to coincide with an exhibition at the British Museum, this volume explores Piranesi’s celebrated skill as a draftsman. While many studies are concerned with Piranesi’s activities as a printmaker, this beautifully illustrated book examines new dimensions of his art by focusing on his drawings. Curator and author Sarah Vowles establishes a clear relationship between his drawings and prints, discusses the involvement of studio hands in his late works, and examines how his style as a draftsman evolved. Piranesi Drawings reveals the quality and lasting impact of the pen and chalk studies by a remarkably talented draftsman, as demonstrated by the superb collection at the British Museum.

Book excerpt: The work of Italian printmaker Giovanni Battista Piranesi (1720–1778) has captivated artists, architects and designers for centuries. Although contemporary Australia is a long way from eighteenth-century Rome, it is home to substantial collections of his works, the largest being at the State Library of Victoria and the University of Melbourne. The Piranesi Effect is a collection of exquisitely illustrated essays on the impact of Piranesi’s work throughout the years. The book brings together Australian and international experts who investigate Piranesi’s world and its connections to the study of art and the practice of artists today. From curators and art historians, to contemporary artists like Bill Henson and Ron McBurnie, the contributors each bring their own passion and insight into the work of Piranesi, illuminating what it is about his work that still inspires such wonder.

Book excerpt: Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food and waterlilies to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone. Messages begin to appear, scratched out in chalk on the pavements. There is someone new in the House. But who are they and what do they want? Are they a friend or do they bring destruction and madness as the Other claims? Lost texts must be found; secrets must be uncovered. The world that Piranesi thought he knew is becoming strange and dangerous

Download or read book The Etchings of Piranesi written by Russell Sturgis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Etchings of Piranesi Giambattista Piranesi was born at Venice in 1720, and died at Rome in 1778. His tomb is in the Church of St. Mary on the Aventine, which once belonged to the Priory of the Knights of St. John. There is there a statue of some merit which commemorates him, and the fact that he, as architect, restored and decorated that Church ten years or more before his death. He also restored the Church of Santa Maria del Popolo, which everybody visits in Rome on account of its superb monuments of the Renaissance ; and his work as architect in the interior of this Church, at least, is not without some merit in a conventional and academical way. This, however, is of little account. Piranesi is known now in one way only, and in that way is not half so well known as he should be. His big etchings of architectural subjects arc too big for collectors to enjoy heartily. Your true collector is a man of minute and delicate little refinements and subtile distinctions in his tastes and in his ways, and Piranesi's works are big and bold.

This book was released on 2017-01-25 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selected Etchings by Piranesi Now, if any coherence at all can be seen in the trend of modern English architecture, we seem at the present moment to be just as dissatisfied with mere Palladianism as were the architects of the end of the eighteenth century. Like them, too, we are lookingfor a more complete expression of the Classic spirit. To us, therefore, Piranesi may have a very similar lesson. The unfortunate thing, however, is that his etchings, a few years ago so easy to obtain, are daily becom ing more rare and expensive. A collection of the best of those issued during the artist's lifetime could hardly be made today for less than a couple of hundred pounds. The Paris reprints which his son issued in isi5 might be obtained for half that sum, but to the ordinary practitioner this may be considered as half infinity. Even Mr. Keith Young's massive volume of reproductions costs several pounds. The days of Robert Adam were the days when architects were few and patrons were rich. Our own times are less happy in that respect, but they are nevertheless the days of unrivalled opportunity. Piranesi is the magician who can Show what opportunities may become; more especially as the process block, albeit lacking in the marvellous grada tions ottone and feeling ofthe original etchings, renders it possible to publish at small cost such a series as are comprised in this volume.
