Download or read book Piranesi Drawings written by Sarah Vowles and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2020-04-21 with total page 0 pages. 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 Synopsis Piranesi as Architect and Designer by : Anthony Sutcliffe
Download or read book Piranesi as Architect and Designer written by Anthony Sutcliffe and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Piranesi's name is usually connected with intriguing and mysterious etchings, but Giambattisa Piranesi (1720-1778) was also influential as an architect and decorative arts designer. This book examines his work, theories, and impact on the design of architecture and the decorative arts, and it is written by a widely recognized authority on Piranesi. This book, although short, is an in-depth study of Piranesi and his work in these fields, with discussions of his background and the influences on him, as well as how his designs evolved and became influential throughout Britain and Europe. As only one of Piranesi's architectural designs was ever actually executed, his significance as an architect ultimately rests on his extensive graphic production and his polemical publications, both of which are shown in this book to have been tremendously influential. This volume is copublished with The Pierpont Morgan Library New York, using many of its outstanding collection of Piranesi drawings and etchings.

Book Synopsis Architecture and the Text by : Jennifer Bloomer
Download or read book Architecture and the Text written by Jennifer Bloomer and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this profoundly original book, Jennifer Bloomer addresses important philosophical questions concerning the relation between writing and architecture. Drawing together two cultural fantasies from different periods--one literary and one architectural--Bloomer uses the allegorical strategies she finds in James Joyce's Finnegans Wake to analyze three works of Giambattista Piranesi (Campo Marzio, Collegio, and the Carceri). Bloomer argues that architecture is a system of representation, with signifying possibilities that go beyond the merely symbolic. Bloomer reads the texts and ideas of Joyce and Piranesi against one another, further illuminating them with insights from myth, religion, linguistics, film theory, nursery rhymes, and personal anecdotes, as well as from poststructuralist, Marxist, and feminist criticism. Combining the strategies of Finnegans Wake, which Joyce himself called architectural, with conventional strategies of architectural thinking, Bloomer creates a new way of thinking architecturally that is not dominated by linear models and that appropriates ideas, parts, and theoretical frameworks from many other disciplines. Demonstrating her argument by dramatic example, Bloomer's treatise--like Joyce's word-play and Piranesi's play with visual representation--offers the pleasure of ongoing discovery.

Book Synopsis Rediscovering Antiquity by : Christopher Charles Parslow
Download or read book Rediscovering Antiquity written by Christopher Charles Parslow and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-10-13 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1995 book examines the early history of the excavations at three important sites of classical antiquity, which came to light in 1738 through the life and work of Karl Jakob Weber, who supervised these investigations from 1750 to 1765. While many of his contemporaries sought only the recovery of precious antiquities to the exclusion of the architectural remains, Weber sought to retrieve evidence of the ancient urban fabric and to relate his discoveries to their archaeological context, thereby establishing the first systematic approach for the excavations. He also proposed a revolutionary manner for publishing his findings, in which all of the works of art from an individual site would appear together with detailed plans, drawings, and commentary drawn from classical and modern sources. His methods were to influence all subsequent publications of contemporary rediscoveries throughout Europe. Based on original excavation documents and plans, contemporary correspondence and the extant archaeological remains.

Book Synopsis A Letter to a Noble Lord by : Edmund Burke
Download or read book A Letter to a Noble Lord written by Edmund Burke and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-04-11 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Irish-British statesman, economist, and philosopher, Edmund Burke wrote this letter when he got stripped of his pension in 1796. He responded by supporting his ideas on government economy and showing how his and other allowances were not conflicting with these ideas. Burke attacked the French Revolution and mentioned how its views endangered the very people after his pension, probably because he was hostile to precisely these ideas. This letter was praised a century and a half after being written as the most significant piece of invective in the English language.
