Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Republics and empires provides transnational perspectives on the significance of Italy to American art and visual culture and the impact of the United States on Italian art and popular culture. Covering the period from the Risorgimento to the Cold War, it reveals the complexity of the visual discourses that bound two relatively new nations together. It also gives substantial attention to literary and critical texts that addressed the evolving cultural relationship between Italy and the United States. While American art history has tended to privilege French, British and German ties, these chapters highlight a rich body of contemporary research by Italian and American scholars that moves beyond a discussion of influence as a one-way directive towards a deeper understanding of cultural transactions that profoundly affected the artistic expression of both nations.

Download or read book Locating American Art written by Cynthia Fowler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does museum location shape the interpretation of an art object by critics, curators, art historians, and others? To what extent is the value of a work of art determined by its location? Providing a close examination of individual works of American art in relation to gallery and museum location, this anthology presents case studies of paintings, sculpture, photographs, and other media that explore these questions about the relationship between location and the prescribed meaning of art. It takes an alternate perspective in that it provides in-depth analysis of works of art that are less well known than the usual American art suspects, and in locations outside of art museums in major urban cultural centers. By doing so, the contributors to this volume reveal that such a shift in focus yields an expanded and more complex understanding of American art. Close examinations are given to works located in small and mid-sized art museums throughout the United States, museums that generally do not benefit from the resources afforded by more powerful cultural establishments such as the Museum of Modern Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Works of art located at institutions other than art museums are also examined. Although the book primarily focuses on paintings, other media created from the Colonial Period to the present are considered, including material culture and craft. The volume takes an inclusive approach to American art by featuring works created by a diverse group of artists from canonical to lesser-known ones, and provides new insights by highlighting the regional and the local.

Book excerpt: La possibilità di incontrare altre specie, in sistemi lontani della galassia, viene realizzata al passare di un numero imprecisato di generazioni. Colonizzatori terrestri che partono sapendo che non riusciranno, nemmeno, a vedere il nuovo pianeta sul quale vivranno i loro discendenti. L'incontro con civiltà evolutesi in precedenza e civiltà che si oppongono alla evoluzione senza riguardi per l'armonia della natura. La stretta somiglianza evolutiva delle specie superiori, che porta a vedere "cugini" sparsi per la galassia. La pace e la collaborazione quale corretta strada evolutiva. La tradizione dei terrestri viene conservata: nel breve periodo con la III° Guerra Mondiale, che condurrà alla quasi scomparsa dell'uomo, e nel lungo periodo per la guerra fra le colonie terrestri, fermata dall'intervento di misteriose entità.

Download or read book Prohibiting Plunder written by Wayne Sandholtz and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-12-31 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For much of history, the rules of war decreed that "to the victor go the spoils." The winners in warfare routinely seized for themselves the artistic and cultural treasures of the defeated; plunder constituted a marker of triumph. By the twentieth century, international norms declared the opposite, that cultural monuments should be shielded from destruction or seizure. Prohibiting Plunder traces and explains the emergence of international rules against wartime looting of cultural treasures, and explores how anti-plunder norms have developed over the past 200 years. The book covers highly topical events including the looting of thousands of antiquities from the Iraqi National Museum in Baghdad, and the return of "Holocaust Art" by prominent museums, including the highly publicized return of five Klimt paintings from the Austrian Gallery to a Holocaust survivor. The historical narrative includes first-hand reports, official documents, and archival records. Equally important, the book uncovers the debates and negotiations that produced increasingly clear and well-defined anti-plunder norms. The historical accounts in Prohibiting Plunder serve as confirming examples of an important dynamic of international norm change. Rules evolve in cycles; in each cycle, specific actions trigger arguments about the meaning and application of rules, and those arguments in turn modify the rules. International norms evolve through a succession of such cycles, each one drawing on previous developments and each one reshaping the normative context for subsequent actions and disputes. Prohibiting Plunder shows how historical episodes interlinked to produce modern, treaty-based rules against wartime plunder of cultural treasures.

Download or read book Instrumental Music in Late Eighteenth-Century Naples written by Anthony R. DelDonna and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-17 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The music of early modern Naples and its renowned artistic traditions remain a fruitful area for scholars in eighteenth-century studies. Contemporary social, political, and artistic conditions had stimulated a significant growth of music, musicians and culture in the Kingdom of Naples from the beginning of the seventeenth century. Although eighteenth-century Neapolitan opera is well documented in scholarship, historians have paid much less attention to the simultaneous cultivation of instrumental genres. Yet the culture of instrumental music grew steadily and by its end became an exclusive area of focus for the royal court, a remarkable departure from past norms of patronage. By bridging this gap, Anthony R. DelDonna brings together diverse fields, including historical musicology, music theory, Neapolitan and European history. His book investigates the wide-ranging role of instrumental genres within late eighteenth-century Neapolitan culture and introduces readers to new material, including recently discovered instrumental works of Paisiello, Cimarosa and Pleyel.

Book excerpt: C'è chi si entusiasma, come Paul Klee, per le sere tunisine di "una bellezza indescrivibile" e chi, come Henri Matisse, ricordando il mare polinesiano, sospira per i "grigi verde giada" delle lagune, per le "eleganti palme" e le "bande di pesci blu, gialli, zebrati di nero". Nostalgia, desiderio, stupore, felicità; quanti sentimenti hanno ispirato e ancora ispirano quei paesi lontani che tanta letteratura, da Salgari a Chatwin ci hanno avvicinato. Anche gli artisti hanno riportato i ricordi, le esperienze e le emozioni dei loro viaggi. Come l'esploratore, da quelli letterari come Ulisse a quelli reali come Marco Polo, James Cook, Jacques Cousteau, anche l'artista partecipa alla mitologia del grande viaggiatore. Si intendono così evocare le atmosfere di quattro continenti, Africa, Asia, America Latina e Oceania, attraverso gli occhi degli artisti europei, interessati ora agli splendidi panorami, dai deserti alle barriere coralline, ora alle popolazioni locali e ai loro costumi, ora alla magia dell'architettura orientale.
