Book excerpt: technologies, the new and often experimental equipment involved was expensive, and the makers had to be persuade, coerce, beg, plead, bribe and fight to find the funding to support it." "Goltzius & the Pelican Company is the story of the Dutch engraver Hendrik Goltzius persuading one of the petty German princelings of Europe to pay for an expensive printing press to make a limited deluxe edition of a boldly illustrated Old Testament. And like a good advertising executive hoping to clinch a deal Goltzius is prepared to sweeten his offer by getting his Pelican Printing Company from The Hague to fulsomely dramatise six erotic biblical tales that demonstrate the six sexual taboos - voyeurism, incest, adultery, pederasty, prostitution and necrophilia. They start with the very first copulation tutored by Saton on Adam and Eve, and continue with the story of Lot and his daughters, the adultery of David and Bathsheba, the seduction of the under-aged Joseph by Potiphar's Wife, the --

Download or read book Passion and Virtuosity written by William Breazeale and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Known as the master Dutch engraver of his time, as important for engraving as Rembrandt was for etching, Hendrick Goltzius was a pivotal printmaker of the late 16th century. His engaging subjects and highly versatile technique earned him praise and commissions throughout Europe. Drawing on collections throughout the state, including University of San Diego, LACMA, and the Achenbach Foundation for Graphic Arts as well as the Crocker, this exhibition brings together nearly 60 works for the first in-depth California exhibition on Goltzius in twenty years. At the core of this collaborative exhibition are Goltzius's Life of the Virgin and Passion of Christ series which show his chameleon-like virtuosity. Divided into five sections, the exhibition focuses as much on technique as on the subjects in the series and explores the influence and interpretation of earlier printmakers in Goltzius's work. Demonstrating the visual dialogue between Goltzius and precursors such as Albrecht Dürer, Passion and Virtuosity provides a deeper understanding of the history of engraving and visual culture in the late 16th century. The artist's own passion for his subjects and technique make the objects in the exhibition the most ambitious works of his career. This catalogue includes an illustrated checklist and essays by co-organizing curators William Breazeale, Crocker Art Museum, and Victoria Sancho Lobis, University of San Diego. Exhibition: The Crocker Art Museum, Sacramento, 20 October 2013-26 January 2014/ Robert and Karen Hoehn Family Galleries, University of San Diego, 21 February-25 May 2014.

Download or read book Shaping the Netherlandish Canon written by Walter S. Melion and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A treatise on Dutch art on par with Vasari's critical history of Italian art, Karel van Mander's Schilder-Boeck (or Book on Picturing) has long been recognized for its critical and historical influence--and yet, until now, no comprehensive account of the book's conception, aims, and impact has been available. In this in-depth analysis of the content and context of Van Mander's work, Walter S. Melion reveals the Schilder-Boeck's central importance to an understanding of northern Renaissance and Baroque art. By interpreting the terminology employed in the Schilder-Boeck, Melion establishes the text's relationship to past and contemporary art theory. Van Mander is seen here developing his critical categories and then applying them to Ancient, Italian, and Netherlandish artists in order to mark changes within a culture and to characterize excellence for each region. Thus Melion demonstrates how Van Mander revised both the structure and critical language of Vasari's Lives to refute the Italian's claims for the superiority of the Tuscan style, and to clarify northern artistic traditions and the concerns of Netherlandish artists. A much needed corrective to the view that Dutch art of the period was lacking in theory, Melion's work offers a compelling account of a sixteenth- and seventeenth-century theoretical and critical perspective and shows how this perspective suggests a rereading of northern art.

Book excerpt: Hendrick Goltzius? 1558 in dem niederrheinischen Ort Bracht bei Venlo geboren? ging 1577 mit seinem im Xantener Exil lebenden lehrer, dem niederländischen Philosophen, Schriftsteller und Kupferstecher Dirck Volckertsz. Coornhert (1522?1590) nach Haarlem. Dort machte sich Goltzius alsbald selbstständig und gründete 1582 einen eigenen Verlag, der schnell mit Spitzenprodukten der Druckgraphik hervortrat und sich länderübergreifend einen Namen machte. Basis hierfür war Goltzius? technische Brillanz und Virtuosität in der Handhabung des Kupferstichs, aber auch des Farbholzschnittes. In seinen sog.?Meisterstichen? stellte er sein technisches Vermögen unter Beweis, indem er Meisterwerke der Renaissance in der Handschrift Dürers, van Leydens, Tizians, Bassanos oder Barroccis täuschend echt nachahmte. Bei diesen Blättern, wie auch bei seinen eindrucksvollen eigenen Bilderfindungen, ging es jedoch nicht nur um bloße Reproduktion oder um Nachahmertum eines Eklektizisten, sondern um kreative Invention. Fast sämtliche Graphiken weisen neulateinische Epigramme von Humanisten auf, die mit moralischen Botschaften die Bilder kommentieren.00Exhibition: Anhaltische Gemäldegalerie, Dessau, Germany (10.11.2017-07.01.2018).

Download or read book Embodiments of Power written by Gary B. Cohen and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The period of the baroque (late sixteenth to mid-eighteenth centuries) saw extensive reconfiguration of European cities and their public spaces. Yet, this transformation cannot be limited merely to signifying a style of art, architecture, and decor. Rather, the dynamism, emotionality, and potential for grandeur that were inherent in the baroque style developed in close interaction with the need and desire of post-Reformation Europeans to find visual expression for the new political, confessional, and societal realities. Highly illustrated, this volume examines these complex interrelationships among architecture and art, power, religion, and society from a wide range of viewpoints and localities. From Krakow to Madrid and from Naples to Dresden, cities were reconfigured visually as well as politically and socially. Power, in both its political and architectural guises, had to be negotiated among constituents ranging from monarchs and high churchmen to ordinary citizens. Within this process, both rulers and ruled were transformed: Europe left behind the last vestiges of the medieval and arrived on the threshold of the modern.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Springer sees in it, not a harsh condemnation of militarism, but a marked ambivalence in the artist's attitude toward war. This new reading of the painting grows out of Springer's assessment of its imagery in relation to patronage, gender relations, and national identity - and particularly to propaganda and satire. Using Kirchner's letters and other documentation, much of it only recently available, Springer reconstructs the years of Kirchner's military service.

Download or read book The Anthropomorphic Lens written by Walter Melion and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-11-06 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthropomorphism – the projection of the human form onto the every aspect of the world – closely relates to early modern notions of analogy and microcosm. What had been construed in Antiquity as a ready metaphor for the order of creation was reworked into a complex system relating the human body to the body of the world. Numerous books and images - cosmological diagrams, illustrated treatises of botany and zoology, maps, alphabets, collections of ornaments, architectural essays – are entirely constructed on the anthropomorphic analogy. Exploring the complexities inherent in such work, the interdisciplinary essays in this volume address how the anthropomorphic model is fraught with contradictions and tensions, between magical and rational, speculative and practical thought. Contributors include Pamela Brekka, Anne-Laure van Bruaene, Ralph Dekoninck, Agnès Guiderdoni, Christopher P. Heuer, Sarah Kyle, Walter S. Melion, Christina Normore, Elizabeth Petcu, Bertrand Prevost, Bret Rothstein, Paul Smith, Miya Tokumitsu, Michel Weemans, and Elke Werner.
