Download or read book European Lacquer written by Monika Kopplin and published by Hirmer Verlag GmbH. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents 50 pieces of European lacquerware from the 16th to the 20th century. Chosen from the collection of the Museum of Lacquerware in Münster, the pieces are vividly rendered in colour photographs and examined in detail in accompanying essays. "Lacquer shines and flows," Oskar Schlemmer once wrote, »finally becoming as hard as stone. Lacquer can be colourless, as clear as glass and as bright as water, or range from yellow or gold through brown to deepest black. Through the addition of powdered pigments we can make lacquers in any colour, which likewise shine, flow smoothly and harden as they dry.« Resin, the highest quality of which can be found in the lacquer trees that thrive in temperate to hot zones of East and South-East Asia, constitues the basic ingredient of all lacquer. It is therefore not surprising that East Asian lacquerwork boasts an ancient heritage. The magnificence and aesthetic perfection that Europeans encountered when they first came into contact with Chinese and Japanese lacquer artefacts resulted in the opening of extensive trade routes which, by the 17th century, were bringing a constant flow of porcelain and lacquerware to Europe. It was in 1772, however, that the French lacquerer Jean-Félix Watin stated "What immense sums leave Europe every year and are swallowed up in the vast regions of Asia," thereby giving voice to a common motivation for bringing lacquerware production to Europe, where in the previous two centuries it had, so to speak, only been simmering. This opulent catalogue narrates in vivid images and illuminating essays the comparatively young though rich tradition of European lacquer.

Download or read book Symbol and Substance in Japanese Lacquer written by Barbara Teri Okada and published by Weatherhill, Incorporated. This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lacquer is one of the glories of the Japanese craft tradition. In the course of more than a millennium of experimentation and development, largely anonymous artisans have refined the use of this substance into a vehicle of artistic expression as subtle, sophisticated, and elegant as any in the world. The combination of sculptural form and painterly composition seen in Japanese lacquer has enchanted Western collectors from the time the first lacquer pieces arrived here. This book presents fifty-five examples of Japanese lacquerwork from the fifteenth to the twentieth centuries. By focusing on superb examples of the craft of lacquer prior to the nineteenth century, it introduces the reader to the achievement of master craftsmen working at the peak of the skill, during the richest period in the development of their medium. The Ehrenkranz Collection, assembled over a quarter of a century with the eye of a painter and true connoisseur, includes document and scroll boxes, mirror boxes, inkstone boxes, incense containers, and a complete set for the incense ceremony. Each piece in the collection is illustrated with stunning full-color photographs, accompanied by detailed information regarding the lacquer techniques used to produce it. Symbol and Substance in Japanese Lacquer is published in conjunction with a fall 1995 exhibition of the Ehrenkranz Collection at the Japan Society in New York City. Elaine Ehrenkranz is a painter and connoisseur who has been collecting lacquer for more than twenty-five years.

Download or read book Heritage Wood written by Austin Nevin and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-12 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume highlights recent research efforts in the conservation and investigation of works of art on wood. Through eleven case studies it showcases different experimental methods ranging from X-ray analysis of objects to the study of cross-sections made from micro-samples. New research focusing on the technical study, treatment and assessment of works of art on wood in its many forms is featured in this edited volume. Technical studies include the attribution and investigations of a triptych by Hans Memling and a sculpture from workshop of Michel and Gregor Erhart, decorated Syrian rooms, and investigations of finely carved Gothic wooden objects. Synchrotron-based methods are presented for studying the alteration of 19th c. verdigris in Norway, and multi-analytical methods are employed for the investigations of 16th to 19th c. East Asian lacquer from the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. Novel methods for the cleaning of gilded surfaces using gels and emulsions are shown, as are innovative strategies for the consolidation for waterlogged wood, providing key data for the assessment of risks and benefits of new methods, and the short and long-term effects on gilding layers and archaeological wood. The book clearly shows how collaboration between engineers, physicists, biologists and chemists and conservators of different types of materials can lead to new research in conservation science. This book is crucial reading for conservators and conservation scientists, as well as for technical art historians, providing key methodological case studies of polychromy from different temporal and geographical contexts.

Book excerpt: Since the Neolithic era, artisans in East Asia have coated bowls, cups, boxes, baskets, and other utilitarian objects with a natural polymer distilled from the sap of the Rhus verniciflua, known as the lacquer tree. Lacquerware was, and still is, prized for its sheen--a lustrous beauty that artists learned to accentuate over the centuries with inlaid gold, silver, mother-of-pearl, and other precious materials. This tradition has undergone challenges over the past thirty years. A small but enterprising circle of lacquer artists has pushed the medium in entirely new and dynamic directions by creating large-scale sculptures--works that are both conceptually innovative and superbly exploitive of lacquer's natural virtues. Featuring thirty works by sixteen artists, this handsome publication details the first-ever exhibition of contemporary Japanese lacquer sculpture in the United States, shown at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
