This book was released on 2000 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: « Historiens de l’art et archéologues ont tenté de mettre en lumière, dans leurs dimensions passées et dans leurs prolongements actuels, les multiples facettes de ces objets d’art et de sciences que sont les moulages. Par la richesse et la diversité des thèmes abordés ainsi que par la présence de nombreuses illustrations, les Actes de ce colloque font le point sur les rapports spécifiques qu’entretinrent l’Allemagne, la Grande-Bretagne et la France, aux "temps forts" du moulage, avec les hauts lieux de la sculpture antique que sont la Grèce et l’Italie, et constituent un témoignage important de l’histoire artistique, culturelle et scientifique des moulages, susceptible d’intéresser l’amateur éclairé autant que l’érudit. »--

Download or read book Paris Peasant written by Aragon and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paris Peasant (1926) is one of the central works of Surrealism. Unconventional in form and fiercely modern, Aragon uses the city of Paris as a framework interlacing text with the city's ephemera: cafe menus, maps, monument inscriptions, newspaper cuttings and the lives of its citizens. No one could have been a more astute detector of the unwanted in all its forms; no one else could have been carried away by such intoxicating reveries about a sort of secret life of the city...' Andre Breton'

Book Synopsis Art and the Religious Image in El Greco’s Italy by : Andrew R. Casper
Download or read book Art and the Religious Image in El Greco’s Italy written by Andrew R. Casper and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-06-13 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art and the Religious Image in El Greco’s Italy is the first book-length examination of the early career of one of the early modern period’s most notoriously misunderstood figures. Born around 1541, Domenikos Theotokopoulos began his career as an icon painter on the island of Crete. He is best known, under the name “El Greco,” for the works he created while in Spain, paintings that have provoked both rapt admiration and scornful disapproval since his death in 1614. But the nearly ten years he spent in Venice and Rome, from 1567 to 1576, have remained underexplored until now. Andrew Casper’s examination of this period allows us to gain a proper understanding of El Greco’s entire career and reveals much about the tumultuous environment for religious painting after the Council of Trent. Art and the Religious Image in El Greco’s Italy is a new book in the Art History Publication Initiative (AHPI), a collaborative grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Thanks to the AHPI grant, this book will be available in popular e-book formats.
Download or read book Belvedere written by David Franklyn and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2013-03 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in the Caribbean during the tumultuous 1790s, Belvedere is the story of Pierre Alexis, a young romantic and idealist from Toulouse, who dreams of migrating to the French Antilles. Instead Pierre finds himself in Grenada, where the rivalry between the French and the British over who controls the island has reached a boiling point. Amidst this already tense atmosphere, an uprising led by French-speaking 'Free Coloureds' suddenly breaks out. Inspired by the French Revolution ideals of Liberty, Equality and Fraternity, the former slaves take up arms against the French and English ruling classes. But rather than helping to put the rebels down, Pierre finds himself sympathetic to their cause. Sharing in their revolutionary ethos, he takes a fateful step and joins them in their rebellion against the English. Although Pierre Alexis is a fictional character, Belvedere is loosely based on a real historical figure; a young Frenchman who took part in the Fedon Revolution in Grenada in 1795, joining the non-whites in their armed struggles against the British ruling class.
Book Synopsis City Views in the Habsburg and Medici Courts by : Ryan E. Gregg
Download or read book City Views in the Habsburg and Medici Courts written by Ryan E. Gregg and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-12-10 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In City Views in the Habsburg and Medici Courts, Ryan E. Gregg relates how Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, and Duke Cosimo I of Tuscany employed city view artists such as Anton van den Wyngaerde and Giovanni Stradano to aid in constructing authority. These artists produced a specific style of city view that shared affinity with Renaissance historiographic practice in its use of optical evidence and rhetorical techniques. History has tended to see city views as accurate recordings of built environments. Bringing together ancient and Renaissance texts, archival material, and fieldwork in the depicted locations, Gregg demonstrates that a close-knit school of city view artists instead manipulated settings to help persuade audiences of the truthfulness of their patrons’ official narratives.

Book Synopsis Baudelaire and Caricature: From the Comic to an Art of Modernity by :
Download or read book Baudelaire and Caricature: From the Comic to an Art of Modernity written by and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baudelaire's essays on caricature offered the first sustained defense of the value of caricature as a serious art, worthy of study in its own right. This book argues for the crucial importance of the essays for his conception of modernity, so fundamental to the subsequent history of modernism. From the theory of the comic formulated in De l'essence du rire to his discussions of Daumier, Goya, Hogarth, Cruikshank, Bruegel, Grandville, Gavarni, Charlet, and many others, Baudelaire develops not only an aesthetic of caricature but also a caricatural aesthetic--dual and contradictory, grotesque, ironic, violent, farcical, fantastic, and fleeting--that defines an art of modern life. In particular, Baudelaire's insistence on the dualism and ambiguity of laughter has radical implications for such emblems of modernity as the city and the flâneur who roams the streets. The modern city is the space of the comic, a kind of caricature, presenting the flâneur with an image of dualism, one's position as subject and object, implicated in the same urban experiences one seems to control. The theory of the comic invests the idea of modernity with reciprocity, one's status as laughter and object of laughter, thus preventing the subjective construction and appropriation of the world that has so often been linked with the project of modernism. Comic art reflects what Walter Benjamin later defined as Baudelairean allegory, at once representing and revealing the alienation of modern experience. But Baudelaire also transforms the dualism of the comic into a peculiarly modern unity-- the doubling of the comic artist enacted for the benefit of the audience, the self-generating and self-reflexive experience of the flâneur in a "communion" with the crowd. This study examines his views in the context of the history of comic theory and contemporary accounts of the individual artists. Complete with illustrations of the many works discussed, it illuminates the history and theory of caricature, the comic, and the grotesque, and adds to our understanding of modernism in literature and the visual arts.
