Book Synopsis Museum Félicien Rops by : Bernadette Bonnier
Download or read book Museum Félicien Rops written by Bernadette Bonnier and published by Stichting Kunstboak (Acc). This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Félicien Rops (1833-1898) moved to Paris at the age of 41, he was considered to be the best-paid illustrator in the city. The publication of his satirical lithos in Belgium had paved the way to his breakthrough. Rops was an excellent observer and painted attractive sea and landscapes, but especially his ironic, caricatural and sometimes indecent lithos and engravings were and still are very much appreciated by the public. This is proven by the success of the Félicien Rops Museum in Namur. This guide is a perfect introduction to the life and works of Félicien Rops, and is now also available in English.

Download or read book Felicien Rops written by Patrick Bade and published by Parkstone International. This book was released on 2023-03-06 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Felicien Rops (1833-1898) is a very surprising artist. Engraver and drawer of exception, Felicien Rops captures and anticipates, with astonishing talent, the female body with great modernity. Abandoning the conventional forms of the time, the artist creates a world full of humour, tenderness and, at times, insolence for the jubilation of the spectator's eye. Many of Rops' most famous works dealt with erotic and sensual themes, often depicting nudes or scenes of debauchery. He also frequently incorporated elements of the supernatural and the macabre, such as skeletons or demons, into his works. Some of his pieces were overtly political or social in nature, often criticizing the hypocrisy of the Church or the bourgeoisie. Overall, Rops' art is complex, multifaceted, and often confrontational. It challenged societal norms and pushed the boundaries of what was considered acceptable in art during his time.

Book excerpt: Over the course of the summer, Namur will become a meeting point for contemporary art as it welcomes Jan Fabre (born 1958), an artist-innovator, visual artist, man of the theatre, and author, who has been at the forefront of the international art scene for more than thirty-five years. After his being honoured at the Louvre in Paris (2008), the Kröller-Mu ̈ller Museum in the Netherlands (2011), the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna (2011), and the MAXXI in Rome (2012), Namur is excited to welcome this renowned artist for a new exhibition to be held in the city's museums and streets.The spark for this monumental project came from a simple anecdote: an interview published in 2011 in which Jan Fabre stated that if he were to steal a work of art from a museum, it would be Félicien Rops's Pornocratès. The notion of invitation quickly became the focus of the exhibitions since, in effect, Rops was inviting Fabre to his museum, to make connections, to focus on the similarities and differences that formed their artistic worlds.

Book Synopsis The Photographer František Drtikol by : Vladimír Birgus
Download or read book The Photographer František Drtikol written by Vladimír Birgus and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Although the book covers many aspects of Drtikol's career and life-work, it is mainly devoted to his photographs. 120 duotone and 8 colour full-page reproductions of Drtikol's works from the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague and a number of other public and private collections illustrate representative selections from all his creative periods, with an emphasis on Drtikol's masterly nudes from the second half of the 1920s, when he moved gradually from his beginnings in pictorialism and symbolism to react in his highly individual way to current avant-garde trends. The text, supplemented with almost fifty other reproductions, analyzes and characterizes Drtikol's photographs and locates them in the wider spiritual and artistic context of their time with the help of quotations from Drtikol's notes and correspondence. The monograph also contains a complete exhibition history, bibliographic listing, and a number of little known works, some never before published."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Alfred Kubin written by Alfred Kubin and published by Prestel Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kubin is irrefutably one of the most original talents of his generation. Whether painting directly from his hallucinatory visions or illustrating the works of such literary giants as Balzac, Poe, Dostoevsky, and Gogol, Kubin eschewed the decorative artistry of earlier Austrian art. Instead, he was drawn to life's dark undertones, represented in his work through his morbid subject matter and frenetic style. Filled with horrific yet fully realized imaginings that were eerily prescient of the era to come, this volume is certain to introduce Kubin to a wider audience perhaps to an entire generation who see in art a way to contend with the upheaval and tribulation of their own time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles De Coster's book "Flemish Legends" is an anthology of folktales and stories from the Belgian province of Flanders.

A wide range of characters, including bold heroes, crafty tricksters, and mythological creatures, are included in the book and are interwoven with enthralling and thought-provoking stories.

De Coster leads readers to a world full of magic, intrigue, and moral lessons with her vivid storytelling and vibrant images. The bravery, humor, and resiliency that permeate the stories in "Flemish Legends" are a reflection of the Flemish people's values and beliefs. De Coster's writing captivates readers of all ages, whether she is narrating epic wars, comedic misadventures, or heartfelt love stories. This helps to preserve the ageless appeal and value of Flemish folklore for future generations.

Book Synopsis Decadence and Dark Dreams by : Ralph Gleis
Download or read book Decadence and Dark Dreams written by Ralph Gleis and published by Hirmer Verlag GmbH. This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Enigmatic magic, erotic sensuality and dark dreamworlds all characterise Symbolism, which evolved as an art current from the 1880s on - with Brussels advancing to become a centre of activity in the development of European art. The tendency towards the morbid and the decadent was most pronounced in Belgian Symbolism. Many of the impulses for this avant-garde came from Belgian artists, such as the disreputable Félicien Rops, the subtle Fernand Khnopff, the occult Jean Delville and the eccentric Léon Spilliaert and James Ensor."--back cover.
Book Synopsis Doctrinal Nourishment by : Theresa Papanikolas
Download or read book Doctrinal Nourishment written by Theresa Papanikolas and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sharp send-up of authoritarian hubris--in which bloated, self-satisfied, bare-bottomed public officials excrete a foul diet literally to be swallowed by the masses--the etching "Doctrinal Nourishment" (1889/95) is one of Belgian artist James Ensor's most politically scathing works. Through a close reading of this print in its political context, curator Theresa Papanikolas traces how Ensor's youthful immersion in Belgian anarchist circles led him to develop violent and grotesque imagery through which he hoped to expose the incompetence of unchecked authority and indict a society in crisis. This well-illustrated volume also puts Ensor's work into art-historical context by juxtaposing examples of French Romanticism, German Expressionism and Dada by a variety of artists, including Honoré Daumier, Félicien Rops, George Grosz and Otto Dix.
