Book Synopsis FACES - FOTOGRAFIA E A ARTE DE RETRATAR by : Steven Biver
Download or read book FACES - FOTOGRAFIA E A ARTE DE RETRATAR written by Steven Biver and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2011-08-22 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is so much detail to be captured in a face. Cicero (106-43 BC) said: "The face is a picture of the mind as the eyes are its interpreter." To capture a person's personality, there are many things to keep in mind, and the authors of FACESshow us how to match up a personality with lighting, posing, and composition. Portraiture is truly an art, and this book dives deep into the details so that you end up with a gorgeous portrait that both you and your subject love. Not only is this book the most comprehensive title available on portraiture, but it contains stunning images. Each image is paired with a lighting diagram, a description of why the type of image was chosen, and then takes you through postproduction to put the finishing touches on. The authors also showcase a gallery of portraits by renowned photographers.
Book Synopsis El rostro humano by : William A. Ewing
Download or read book El rostro humano written by William A. Ewing and published by . This book was released on 2008-02 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anuncio de la muerte del retrato convencional, nuevas maneras de retratar el rostro. El rostro como estudio de la individualidad humana. Provocadores retratos con un énfasis puesto en lo que está a la vista y no en lo oculto.En una época en la que se nos bombardea con imágenes impecables de belleza juvenil, y en la que el rejuvenecimiento puede conseguirse mediante un tarro de crema o un bisturí, no es de extrañar que una nueva generación de artistas y fotógrafos investiguen sobre nuevas técnicas de retrato. Al explorar nuevas y atrevidas estrategias de presentación, los artistas presentan al mundo rostros que son, a veces, enternecedores, y, otras aun, aterradores, pero que nunca dejan de ser fascinantes. A través de una gran variedad de técnicas, entre ellas la manipulación mediante ordenador, el retoque, el fotomontaje, la apropiación de imágenes y diversos métodos de veladoy de simulación, los artistas presentan sus innovadores retratos. Al sustituir la claridad por lo borroso, lo instantáneo por el momento elástico y la realidad por la hiperrealidad, cuestionan la idea de una identidad fija, de la cara como 'reflejo del alma', de lo que constituye la belleza y de la fe en una absoluta verdad fotográfica, creando así retratos más próximos a los del siglo XIX que a los del siglo XX.
Book Synopsis Mónica Castillo by : Mónica Castillo
Download or read book Mónica Castillo written by Mónica Castillo and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work of Mexican artist Mónica Castillo explores the genre of self-portraiture from an informed and deviant point of view. Part of a generation that has had to reconcile the mythology erected around Mexican and Latin American art when it was internationally relaunched in the eighties, the work of Castillo severs the self-portrait-a mode cultified by the Frida Kahlo craze-from its convenient and voyeuristic biographical meanings. Essays, in both Spanish and English, by Cuauhtémoc Medina and Justo Pastor Mellado.
Book Synopsis Praying to Portraits by : Adam Jasienski
Download or read book Praying to Portraits written by Adam Jasienski and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2023-09-14 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Praying to Portraits, art historian Adam Jasienski examines the history, meaning, and cultural significance of a crucial image type in the early modern Hispanic world: the sacred portrait. Across early modern Spain and Latin America, people prayed to portraits. They prayed to “true” effigies of saints, to simple portraits that were repainted as devotional objects, and even to images of living sitters depicted as holy figures. Jasienski places these difficult-to-classify image types within their historical context. He shows that rather than being harbingers of secular modernity and autonomous selfhood, portraits were privileged sites for mediating an individual’s relationship to the divine. Using Inquisition records, hagiographies, art-theoretical treatises, poems, and plays, Jasienski convincingly demonstrates that portraiture was at the very center of broader debates about the status of images in Spain and its colonies. Highly original and persuasive, Praying to Portraits profoundly revises our understanding of early modern portraiture. It will intrigue art historians across geographical boundaries, and it will also find an audience among scholars of architecture, history, and religion in the early modern Hispanic world.

Download or read book De lo humano written by Ute Eskildsen and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1977, this book brings together what is known about liberal feminist and socialist movements for the emancipation of women all over the world in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It deals not only with Britain and the United States but also with Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany, Russia, Austria-Hungary and the Scandinavian countries. The chapters trace the origins, development, and eventual collapse of these movements in relation to the changing social formations and political structures of Europe, America and Australasia in the era of bourgeois liberalism. The first part of the book discusses the origins of feminist movements and advances a model or 'ideal type' description of their development. The second part then takes a number of case studies of individual feminist movements to illustrate the main varieties of organised feminism and the differences from country to country. The third part looks at socialist women's movements and includes a study of the Socialist Women's International. A final part touches on the reason for the eclipse of women's emancipation movements in the half-century following the end of the First World War, before a general conclusion pulls together some of the arguments advanced in earlier chapters and attempts a comparison between these feminist movements of 1840-1920 and the Women's Liberation Movement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FINALIST IN THE PHOTO BOOK CATEGORY OF THE PICTURES OF THE YEAR AWARD Between 2011 and 2014 PJ Harvey and Seamus Murphy set out on a series of journeys together to Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Washington DC. Harvey collected words, Murphy collected pictures, and together they have created an extraordinary chronicle of our life and times. The Hollow of the Hand marks the first publication of Harvey's powerful poetry, in conversation with Murphy's indelible images. It is a landmark project and will be published internationally in October 2015. As PJ Harvey says: 'Gathering information from secondary sources felt too far removed for what I was trying to write about. I wanted to smell the air, feel the soil and meet the people of the countries I was fascinated with. Following our work on Let England Shake, my friend Seamus Murphy and I agreed to grow a project together lead by our instincts on where we should go.' Seamus Murphy adds: 'Polly is a writer who loves images and I am a photographer who loves words. Our relationship began a few years ago when she asked me if I would like to take some photographs and make some films for her last album Let England Shake. I was intrigued and the adventure began, now finding another form in this book. It is our look at home and the world.' The Hollow of the Hand will be available in a hardback edition with highest quality photographic reproductions, as well as a reader's paperback version.
