Book Synopsis Paris and the Cliché of History by : Catherine E. Clark
Download or read book Paris and the Cliché of History written by Catherine E. Clark and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-19 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book turns a compelling new lens on thinking about the history of Paris and photography. The invention of photography changed how history could be written. But the now commonplace assumptions--that photographs capture fragments of lost time or present emotional gateways to the past--that structure today's understandings did not emerge whole cloth in 1839. Focusing on one of photography's birthplaces, Paris and the Cliché of History tells the story of how photographs came to be imagined as documents of the past. Author Catherine E. Clark analyzes photography's effects on historical interpretation by examining the formation of Paris's first photo archives at the Musée Carnavalet and the city's municipal library, their use in illustrated history books and historical exhibitions and reconstructions such as the 1951 celebration of Paris's 2000th birthday, and the public's contribution to the historical record in amateur photo contests. Despite the photograph's growing importance in these forums, it did not simply replace older forms of illustration, visual documentation, or written text. Photos worked in complex and shifting relation to other types of pictures as photographers, popular historians, and publishers built on the traditions and iconography of painting and engraving in order to both document the past scientifically and objectively and to reconstruct it romantically. In doing so, they not only influenced how Parisians thought about the city's past and how they pictured it; they also ensured that these images shaped how Parisians lived their own lives--especially in deeply charged moments such as the Liberation after World War II. This history of picturing Paris does not simply reflect the city's history: it is Parisian history.

Book Synopsis Nancy Elizabeth Prophet by : Sarah Ganz Blythe
Download or read book Nancy Elizabeth Prophet written by Sarah Ganz Blythe and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2024 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book explores the career and legacy of Nancy Elizabeth Prophet (1890-1960), whose figural sculptures embody her uncompromising sovereignty over her work and life. Through original essays, catalogue entries on Prophet's major works, and an illustrated chronology of her remarkable life, this book demonstrates how Prophet continues to inspire a new generation of artists and viewers today. Contributors trace her transatlantic career, from Parisian ateliers to Spelman College, and consider topics such as the art institutions Prophet navigated, the stylistic connections between her figurative sculpture and the work of her modernist contemporaries, and how she resisted predetermined conceptions of her cultural identity."--

Download or read book Jacques Louis David: Radical Draftsman written by Perrin Stein and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2022-02-14 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first major exhibition catalogue to focus on Jacques Louis David's drawings and their pivotal role in the creation of his iconic history paintings The paintings of Jacques Louis David (1748–1825) are among the most iconic in the history of Western art, but comparatively little is known about his nearly two thousand drawings that formed the basis of beloved masterpieces such as The Oath of the Horatii and The Death of Socrates. Jacques Louis David: Radical Draftsman accompanies the first major exhibition to focus on the artist's often yearslong process of trial and experimentation, from initial idea to finished canvas. Including several recently discovered drawings published here for the first time, this volume provides a new perspective on the celebrated master. Essays by international experts explore what David's preparatory works on paper reveal about his creative process and how they bear witness to the tumultuous years before, during, and after the French Revolution. As both a participant and an observer, David helped establish the new French society while documenting the drama, violence, and triumphs of modern history in the making.
