Here the artist changed his painting style several times, looking at the works of Michelangelo, Sebastiano del Piombo and the vast repertoire of ancient painting and sculpture. In the Eternal City Raphael practiced architecture for the first time, designing buildings that reflected the models of Antiquity such as the Pantheon, the descriptions deriving from written sources such as Vitruvius' treaty on architecture, and the examples of modern architects like Donato Bramante.

Download or read book Immigrant Architect: Rafael Guastavino and the American Dream (The History Makers Series) written by Berta de Miguel and published by Tilbury House Publishers and Cadent Publishing. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Booklist Starred Review Named to the 2022 Texas Topaz Nonfiction Reading List The Spanish architects Rafael Guastavino Sr. and hisson, Rafael Guastavino Jr., designed more than one thousand iconic spaces across New York City and the United States, such as the New York City Hall Subway Station (still a tourist destination though no longer active), the Manhattan Federal Reserve Bank, the Nebraska State Capitol, the Great Hall of Ellis Island, the Oyster bar at Grand Central Terminal in New York, the Elephant House at the Bronx Zoo, the soaring tiled vaults under the Queensboro Bridge, the central dome of the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, and the Boston Public Library. Written in the voice of the son, who was eight years old in 1881 when he immigrated to America with his father, this is their story. Rafael Guastavino Sr. was 39 when he left a successful career as an architect in Barcelona. American cities—densely packed and built largely of wood—were experiencing horrific fires, and Guastavino had the solution: The soaring interior spaces created by his tiled vaults and domes made buildings sturdier, fireproof, and beautiful. What he didn’t have was fluent English. Unable to win design commissions, he transferred control of the company to his American-educated son, whose subsequent half-century of inspired design work resulted in major contributions to the built environment of America. Immigrant Architect is an introduction to architectural concepts and a timely reminder of immigrant contributions to America. The book includes four route maps for visiting Guastavino-designed spaces in New York City: uptown, midtown, downtown, and Prospect Park.

Download or read book ArtCurious written by Jennifer Dasal and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wildly entertaining and surprisingly educational dive into art history as you've never seen it before, from the host of the beloved ArtCurious podcast We're all familiar with the works of Claude Monet, thanks in no small part to the ubiquitous reproductions of his water lilies on umbrellas, handbags, scarves, and dorm-room posters. But did you also know that Monet and his cohort were trailblazing rebels whose works were originally deemed unbelievably ugly and vulgar? And while you probably know the tale of Vincent van Gogh's suicide, you may not be aware that there's pretty compelling evidence that the artist didn't die by his own hand but was accidentally killed--or even murdered. Or how about the fact that one of Andy Warhol's most enduring legacies involves Caroline Kennedy's moldy birthday cake and a collection of toenail clippings? ArtCurious is a colorful look at the world of art history, revealing some of the strangest, funniest, and most fascinating stories behind the world's great artists and masterpieces. Through these and other incredible, weird, and wonderful tales, ArtCurious presents an engaging look at why art history is, and continues to be, a riveting and relevant world to explore.

Book Synopsis The Life of Raphael by : Giorgio Vasari
Download or read book The Life of Raphael written by Giorgio Vasari and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Giorgio Vasari, Florentine painter and architect, friend of Michelangelo and intimate of the Medici, is best known for his Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors and Architects, published in 1550 and in an enlarged edition in 1568. With more than two hundred biographies, it has for centuries been recognized as a seminal text in art history and one of the most important sources on the Italian Renaissance. It is to Vasari that we owe much of our knowledge of Raphael (1483–1520), who in his day was considered perhaps the greatest painter of all time. Rich in colorful anecdotes, The Life of Raphael is important for its sustained attention to the range of Raphael’s art, whose chronology and development Vasari describes in detail, together with the painter’s ample love life and spectacular social career. It also pays attention, unprecedented for its time, to theoretical issues. This edition, introduced by the scholar Jill Burke, includes thirty pages of color illustrations covering the entire span of Raphael’s oeuvre.

Download or read book Raphael written by Pierluigi De Vecchi and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Giorgio Vasari qualifiait Raphaël d'artista aggraziato, artiste touché par la grâce. Sans doute s'agit-il encore de l'une des plus justes manières d'évoquer l'oeuvre de l'un des plus grands créateur de la renaissance italienne, aux côté de Michel-Ange et Léonard de Vinci. L'auteur réexamine toutes les grandes périodes de sa courte carrière, qu'il débarasse de poncifs accumulés au fil des siècles. Il garde à l'esprit la composante la plus profonde de son art: son rapport à la beauté liée à la dialectique de l'amour terrestre et de l'amour céleste, qui au tournant du XVème et du XVIème siècles, était au coeur du débat de la philosophie d'amour, mais à laquelle il su donner une expression concrète à travers l'image. Si Raphaël était incomparable aux yeux des humanistes et des lettrés de la cour du pape Léon X c'était, selon les mots d'André Chastel rapportés par De Vecchi parce que l'on percevait, dans la perfection de la forme, une dimension métaphysique de la beauté. Tous les grands tableaux de l'artiste sont ici reproduits, mais également un nombre important de dessins et de gravures, permettent de comprendre la conception de ses oeuvres et leur diffusion. Son travail d'architecte et de décorateur (Loges, Chambres, villa Madame...)y est également abordé.
