Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Formally trained by world accredited painter Dave Archer, a master of reverse glass painting, and line drawing, I absorbed as much information as possible during the years that I worked beside David as his only true student of reverse glass painting. "Those days were pure magic.” For now, and possibly forever, I do not paint on glass. This is for several reasons. One, I don't have a great artist like David to work with and inspire me, and two, I don't have the space. Also, a specific lacquer is a vital and necessary component for creating this type of art. It’s simply no longer available. Without the correct lacquer, glass paintings of quality are impossible to create. Because of the cost of my books, I have minimized the consumers costs by forfeiting my personal profits from my publications. Be sure to visit my website, and God bless you all.

The first major survey of this form of East Asian art, the volume traces its long history, its local and global diffusion, and its artistic and technical characteristics. Manufactured for export to Europe and for local consumption within China, the fragile artworks studied in this volume constitute a paramount part of Chinese visual culture and attest to the intensive cultural and artistic exchange between China and the West.

Book Synopsis Chinese Reverse Glasspainting 1720-1820 by : Thierry Audric
Download or read book Chinese Reverse Glasspainting 1720-1820 written by Thierry Audric and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 2020-04-15 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Displaying a talent for combining aesthetic sensibility with scientific rigor, the author has given new life to something that once excited European passions: an original, non-academic art at the forefront of the 'new technology' of the time. For decades, aristocrats of the Old World and then American collectors (the latter at the end of the eighteenth and beginning of the nineteenth centuries) spent countless sums on the purchase of these works, which were worth a fortune. These wealthy collectors of curiosities of all types were also most certainly great dreamers seeking a worthy setting for their dreams. Unbeknownst to them, their endeavours had much greater scope, creating and nourishing the conditions for a rare encounter between two worlds: a golden age of atypical collaboration, a combined adventure between China and Europe.

Book Synopsis Reverse Painting on Glass by : Karli Wurzelbacher
Download or read book Reverse Painting on Glass written by Karli Wurzelbacher and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation examines the production and reception of reverse paintings on glass by modern American artists. Rockwell Kent (1882–1971), Marsden Hartley (1877–1943), Joseph Stella (1877–1946), and Rebecca Salsbury James (1891–1968) created paintings ranging from kaleidoscopic abstractions to spare still lifes by layering paint in reverse order on the back of a glass support. As the first critical study of modern American reverse painting on glass, the dissertation employs the frameworks of material culture studies and feminist art history to focus on the materiality of glass and on the gendering of the medium as feminine. I argue that modern American artists engaged diverse nineteenth-century glass painting precedents while also responding to glass as a new, quintessentially modern material. ☐ In the Introduction, I explore Kent’s reverse-painted mirrors to show that he conceived of glass painting as simultaneously old-fashioned, feminine, and modern. Chapter 1, on Hartley’s still lifes of 1917, addresses the mutability of the “usable past” in relation to Bavarian hinterglasmalerei and tinsel painting. Chapter 2 underscores the ubiquity and multiple meanings of glass in New York City through analysis of Stella’s reverse paintings of technology and nature. Chapter 3 investigates the relation of James’s 1930s work to New England tinsel painting, New Mexican tinwork, and new materials and Precisionist form. My research on reverse painting on glass reveals that ideas about the usable past, gender, and new materials and techniques were mutually constitutive in the early decades of the twentieth century in America.
Book Synopsis Mary Magdalene, Iconographic Studies from the Middle Ages to the Baroque by :
Download or read book Mary Magdalene, Iconographic Studies from the Middle Ages to the Baroque written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-11-21 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Magdalene, Iconographic Studies from the Middle Ages to the Baroque examines the iconographic inventions in Magdalene imagery and the contextual factors that shaped her representation in visual art from the fourteenth to the seventeenth centuries. Unique to other saints in the medieval lexicon, images of Mary Magdalene were altered over time to satisfy the changing needs of her patrons as well as her audience. By shedding light on the relationship between the Magdalene and her patrons, both corporate and private, as well as the religious institutions and regions where her imagery is found, this anthology reveals the flexibility of the Magdalene’s character in art and, in essence, the reinvention of her iconography from one generation to the next.

Book Synopsis Vermeer's Camera by : Philip Steadman
Download or read book Vermeer's Camera written by Philip Steadman and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art historians have long speculated on how Vermeer achieved the uncanny mixture of detached precision, compositional repose, and perspective accuracy that have drawn many to describe his work as "photographic." Indeed, many wonder if Vermeer employed a camera obscura, a primitive form of camera, to enhance his realistic effects? In Vermeer's Camera, Philip Steadman traces the development of the camera obscura--first described by Leonaro da Vinci--weighs the arguments that scholars have made for and against Vermeer's use of the camera, and offers a fascinating examination of the paintings themselves and what they alone can tell us of Vermeer's technique. Vermeer left no record of his method and indeed we know almost nothing of the man nor of how he worked. But by a close and illuminating study of the paintings Steadman concludes that Vermeer did use the camera obscura and shows how the inherent defects in this primitive device enabled Vermeer to achieve some remarkable effects--the slight blurring of image, the absence of sharp lines, the peculiar illusion not of closeness but of distance in the domestic scenes. Steadman argues that the use of the camera also explains some previously unexplainable qualities of Vermeer's art, such as the absence of conventional drawing, the pattern of underpainting in areas of pure tone, the pervasive feeling of reticence that suffuses his canvases, and the almost magical sense that Vermeer is painting not objects but light itself. Drawing on a wealth of Vermeer research and displaying an extraordinary sensitivity to the subtleties of the work itself, Philip Steadman offers in Vermeer's Camera a fresh perspective on some of the most enchanting paintings ever created.
