Building Reputations

Conor,Lucey  著
Ingram 出版
2021/01/18 出版

Taking a cue from revisionist scholarship on early modern vernacular architectures and their relationship to the classical canon, this book rehabilitates the reputations of a representative if misunderstood building typology - the eighteenth-century brick terraced house - and the artisan communities of bricklayers, carpenters and plasterers responsible for its design and construction. Opening with a cultural history of the building tradesman in terms of his reception within contemporary architectural discourse, chapters consider the design, decoration and marketing of the town house in the principal cities of the eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century British Atlantic world. The book is essential reading for students and scholars of the history of architectural design and interior decoration specifically, and of eighteenth-century society and culture generally.

13 Months in Office

Ingram 出版
2021/01/17 出版

The National Democratic Alliance (NDA) led by Mr. A.B. Vajpayee emerged as the single largest party in the 1996 general election in India, President of India Mr. Sankar Dayal Sharma invited him to form a government. Accordingly, Mr. A. B. Vajpayee took oath as the Prime Minister of India on 16 May 1996. However, he failed to gather majority support. Therefore, he resigned after 16 days.After that, Mr. H. D. Deve Gowda took over as the Prime Minister of India, on 1 June 1996, with the outside support of the Congress Party.However, the Congress Party withdrew its outside support and brought down his United Front (UF) Government on 11 April 1997. He continued until 21 April 1997.The coalition parties - Congress Party included- chose Mr. Inder Kumar Gujral as his successor. He functioned as the Prime Minister of India from 21 April 1997 to 19 March 1998. In the 1998 general election, Mr. A. B. Vajpayee led the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and got majority support. The President of India administered the oath of office to him as the Prime Minister of India on 19 March 1998.The ruling class- a group of people controlling the public mind in India- wanted him to be a powerful prime minister commanding maximum public support.He imposed his will upon the land. The media projected him as a great leader. A series of actions -nuclear explosions, missile tests and some other incidents like the Kargil battle- secured him a place in the mind of the people.In April 1999, Miss. J. Jayalalithaa withdrew the support of her party -AIADMK- to the 13-month old government. In the ensuing confidence motion, the Government lost by a single vote on 17 April 1999.She did it without any reasonable cause or provocation. Some people felt that the ruling class prevailed upon her to withdraw her support to him so that he could emerge as a stronger leader after the election.He continued as the caretaker Prime Minister until 13 October 1999. He did not reveal his mind to the people during his rule. This book deals with his rule from 19 March 1998 to 17 April 1999 and as the caretaker Prime Minister from 17 April 1999 to 13 October 1999.It discusses the Pokran II nuclear blasts, the Indo-US talks after the blast, the bilateral relationship of India with other countries after the blast, Kargil intrusion, Kargil battle, the bus journey undertaken by Prime Minister of India Mr. A.B. Vajpayee to Pakistan and the mode of functioning of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) during his rule vividly. The diplomacy of Mr. A.B. Vajpayee to solve the repercussions of the nuclear blasts would benefit the readers interested in politics.

Take Me Home to Woodstock

Sally,Cissna  著
Ingram 出版
2021/01/13 出版

1900, Woodstock, Illinois: John Wienke has made a name for himself in his small town as a trusted and steady son and brother, a hard worker, and a would-be politician. His parents and three of his seven brothers immigrated from Prussia before John was born and have struggled against the poor economic times of the late 1800s. At 30 years, he is well on his way to success. He is only lacking one thing - a wife. 1900, Racine, Wisconsin: Ida Doering came to America from Germany as a young child and has been a major breadwinner for her family since their father died. An accomplished seamstress, her dresses have graced the debutantes of the important families in the city. But at 26 years, she pines for married life and children. She's almost given it up as a pipedream. Each chapter constitutes a year in John and Ida's lives as they search for that elusive dream of happiness. The series, The Woodstock Tales, follows the Wienke and Doering families as they meander through the mores and menaces facing birth and death, passion and greed, success and failure spanning the twentieth century in American.

Knidos

Ingram 出版
2021/01/12 出版

This memoir describes the authors experiences as a young archaeologist participating in the American archaeological excavations at ancient Knidos at south-west Turkey in 1971. Knidos, once a great classical metropolis and now entirely abandoned, is situated at Cape Crio, an isolated but glorious location at the end of a mountainous finger jutting out towards the Dodecanese islands. The ancient metropolis is famous for its marble statue of the goddess, Aphrodite, the scandalous first naked image of the deity made by the renowned sculptor, Praxiteles in the 4th century BC and imitated throughout antiquity. The book describes ('the mad consul') Charles Newton's epic excavations at Knidos during the Crimean War when, with Parliamentary support and a frigate, he excavated tons of sculpture which was dispatched the British Museum. Newton's excavations set the scene for Iris Cornelia Love's excavations (1967-77)--the Guggenheim heiress from Manhattan, who believed she discovered Aphrodite on the day American astronauts landed on the moon. This is a story about adolescence, place, archaeologists, the lost world of Turkish peasants and...... love. It portrays a major Mediterranean dig and a restless search for trophies. It also tells a tale about an extraordinarily magical place.Knidos is about classical archaeology in Victorian and modern times, the spirit of this magical place in Aegean Turkey. It also describes the mix of many personalities on this excavation, from the USA in the Vietnam War era (featuring a New York heiress, Iris Cornelia Love) and of course the local, Turkish hired peasants. Based on youthful participation on the excavations, it aims to recall some of the excitement of archaeology. Central to the story is the quest for Praxiteles's celebrated naked statue of Aphrodite, the goddess of love.

”Nymph矇as”. Ein Vergleich der gleichnamigen Werke von Pierre Huyghe und Claude Monet

Aileen,Ramm  著
Ingram 出版
2021/01/10 出版

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2019 im Fachbereich Kunst - Kunstgeschichte, Note: 1,7, Universit瓣t Hamburg (Geisteswissenschaften), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: "Er hat der Natur die Z羹gel angelegt, mit vergoldetem Zaumzeug zwar, aber in dem festen Willen, sie seiner k羹nstlerischen Vision f羹gsam zu machen." So beschreibt Horst Keller Monets Arbeiten am Giverny Garten, der sp瓣ter Vorbild f羹r die Nymph矇as Werkserie wurde. Genau diese Unterwerfung und Beherrschung der Natur durch den Menschen wird fast hundert Jahre sp瓣ter von Pierre Huyghe wieder aufgegriffen und ausgestellt. Huyghes Nymph矇as Transplant basiert auf Monets Nymph矇as Gem瓣lden und thematisiert die Beziehung von Mensch und Natur durch den Verweis auf den k羹nstlichen Giverny Garten. Da die Werke so eng verbunden sind, ist es ertragreich, diese in den direkten Vergleich zu stellen, um so Huyghes Intention hinter dem Nymph矇as Transplant herauszuarbeiten. Dazu werden im folgenden Text beide Werke einzeln vorgestellt und dann auf Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede untersucht. Dabei wird vor allem der Begriff 織Transplantat織 genauer beleuchtet werden, da dieser, wie man am Werktitel unschwer erkennen kann, Fokus von Huyghes Werk ist. Es soll gekl瓣rt werden, was Huyghe mit seinem Werk transplantiert und wie erfolgreich dieser Versuch ist. Auch die Rolle der Natur in den Werken ist von gro?er Bedeutung und wird in einem eigenen Abschnitt erl瓣utert werden.

Maria als Stadtpatronin von Stra?burg

Ingram 出版
2021/01/10 出版

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2012 im Fachbereich Kunst - Kunstgeschichte, Note: 1,3, Universit瓣t zu K繹ln, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Maria war vom 13. Jahrhundert bis Anfang des 16. Jahrhunderts die Stadtpatronin von Stra?burg. Die B羹rger der Stadt w瓣hlten sie zur Schutzherrin, um sich von der Herrschaft des Stra?burger Bischofs zu befreien. Im Mittelpunkt des Ringens um b羹rgerliche Autonomie stand das Liebfrauenm羹nster. Indem die bisch繹fliche Marienkirche symbolisch durch den Marienaltar in eine B羹rgerkirche umgewandelt wurde, gl羹ckte die kommunale Umformulierung ehemals geistlicher Sinnangebote. Mit der ?bernahme der Bauverwaltung und der Gr羹ndung des dem Altar angeschlossenen Liebfrauenwerks flossen dem Stadtrat gen羹gend Gelder zu, um die Geschicke der Stadt und den Bau der Kirche weitgehend bestimmen zu k繹nnen. Mit der Marienkirche als Ort der Identifikation und Integration hatte sich der Stadtrat des Konsenses und der Loyalit瓣t der B羹rger versichert. Indem das Marienbild auf den Herrschaftszeichen der Stadtgemeine - Siegel, M羹nzen, Stadtrechtsdruck und Heerfahne - abgebildet wurde, nutzten und verst瓣rkten die st瓣dtischen F羹hrungsgruppen die verbindende Kraft des Marienkults. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, das Stra?burger Stadtpatrozinium Marias anhand der zentralen Elemente der Marienverehrung wie Marienstatue, Stadtsiegel und M羹nzen, Stadtrechtsdruck, Stadtbanner und dem Marienzyklus am S羹dquerhausportal unter Einbeziehung der wichtigsten geschichtlichen Ereignisse der besprochenen Zeit, die Stra?burg und das M羹nster betreffen, zu veranschaulichen und au?erdem an ihnen die Bedingungen, die zur kommunalen Umformulierung f羹hrten, aufzuzeigen.

Tropical Aesthetics of Black Modernism

2021/01/08 出版

In Tropical Aesthetics of Black Modernism, Samantha A. No禱l investigates how Black Caribbean and American artists of the early twentieth century responded to and challenged colonial and other white-dominant regimes through tropicalist representation. With depictions of tropical scenery and landscapes situated throughout the African diaspora, performances staged in tropical settings, and bodily expressions of tropicality during Carnival, artists such as Aaron Douglas, Wifredo Lam, Josephine Baker, and Maya Angelou developed what No禱l calls "tropical aesthetics"-using art to name and reclaim spaces of Black sovereignty. As a unifying element in the Caribbean modern art movement and the Harlem Renaissance, tropical aesthetics became a way for visual artists and performers to express their sense of belonging to and rootedness in a place. Tropical aesthetics, No禱l contends, became central to these artists' identities and creative processes while enabling them to craft alternative Black diasporic histories. In outlining the centrality of tropical aesthetics in the artistic and cultural practices of Black modernist art, No禱l recasts understandings of African diasporic art.

Painting, Poetry, and the Invention of Tenderness in the Early Roman Empire

Ingram 出版
2021/01/08 出版

Tenderness is not a notion commonly associated with the Romans, whose mythical origin was attributed to brutal rape. Yet, as H矇rica Valladares argues in this ground-breaking study, in the second half of the first century BCE Roman poets, artists, and their audience became increasingly interested in describing, depicting, and visualizing the more sentimental aspects of amatory experience. During this period, we see two important and simultaneous developments: Latin love elegy crystallizes as a poetic genre, while a new style in Roman wall painting emerges. Valladares' book is the first to correlate these two phenomena properly, showing that they are deeply intertwined. Rather than postulating a direct correspondence between images and texts, she offers a series of mutually reinforcing readings of painting and poetry that ultimately locate the invention of a new romantic ideal within early imperial debates about domesticity and the role of citizens in Roman society.

This is not Leonardo da Vinci

Ingram 出版
2021/01/05 出版

Despite so much being written about Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance, many questions about the Tuscan artist's life and works remain shrouded in mystery: Why isn't the painting exhibited at the Louvre Museum the Mona Lisa?Why do we find so many pagan symbols in Leonardo's Christian representations?Was Leonardo really the son of a notary and a slave?Why is there such a lack of work from Leonardo's early life-perhaps his most important period?Why do we have paintings of the Americas well before the first trips of Christopher Columbus?Riccardo Magnani, economist-turned-Leonardo expert, reconstructs the political and economic world around da Vinci, illustrating how he was influenced by the biggest "discovery" of all, the Americas. This is not Leonardo provides the key to understanding Leonardo's visual language, within the context of the Renaissance and its artists-essential to fully comprehend his work and the many clues he left behind. Magnani reveals little-known facts about Leonardo's education, long suppressed by the Catholic Church-from his use of iconography of the ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Byzantines, to his influence by the Neoplatonic movement led by George Gemistus.Thanks to the new insights presented by This is not Leonardo, the dogmatic prism that our Western society has employed for so long to understand Leonardo da Vinci can now finally be challenged.

Il ”cristianesimo di frontiera” nella provincia Scythia. Studio archeologico delle testimonianze monumentali nelle fortezze sul Danubio

Lulu.com 出版
2021/01/04 出版

The defensive system of the lower danubian limes in late antiquity was structured within provincia Scythia in an advanced line, corresponding to the last course of the Danube, and in a more backward one hinged on large fortified towns, which at least from Zaldapa to the south reached as far as Noviodunum to the north, passing through Tropaeum Traiani and Ibida, but also through minor fortifications such as Ulmetum and Vicus Bad(---). Here we intend to concentrate our attention in particular on the fortresses of provincia Scythia which guarded the defensive line organized along the river, in order to define the characteristics of the Christianity on this border of the empire through the analysis of the archaeological record found in the settlements which first faced the burden of the defense of the limes, subjected to continuous pressure especially in the last period of its history. This analysis will be based primarily on monumental evidences, starting with the buildings of the Christian form of worship, which, more than other findings, give the measure of the presence of organized Christian communities and which will be studied in their topographical organization and in their architectural characteristics, then considering the structures of the funerary framework, where they actually exist; the inscriptions and the categories of the movable finds most indicative for this research will be examined by reuniting them, where possible, with their original structural contexts. The picture that emerges from the so far known archaeological record seems essentially functional to the communities that inhabited these settlements, in which the military element obviously played a primary role, while the evangelizing impulse, addressed also to the territories beyond the limes, was perhaps entrusted to the initiative of the important centers located in Moesia Secunda or in the more backward area to the east of the Danube.

Mindfulness and Traditional Chinese Zen Arts

Ingram 出版
2021/01/02 出版

Mindfulness meditation disciplines are deeply rooted in the Far East's cultural past, and yet they are now being widely taught and researched in the modern West. What is more, when these differing perspectives on the same spiritual territory come together from opposite ends of the globe, their ways can interweave harmoniously - allowing for a new greater synthesis, or Way, to manifest. 'Mindfulness and Traditional Chinese Zen Arts' takes you on a journey into and through that broader landscape - into the heart of secular mindfulness and ancient Chinese Zen philosophy - by demystifying four traditional Chinese Zen arts that are more than 1000 years old. The author, Tristan Petts, a qualified British secular mindfulness meditation instructor, has spent two decades painstakingly searching for and practicing traditional mindful arts under authentic masters. Now, after having taught mindfulness and Chinese Zen arts alongside one another in the Far East for many years, he is committed to sharing the insights that he has gathered along that Way. Written in the simple, clear, modern scientific language of western secular mindfulness, this book holds the potential to delight, inspire, and enlighten anyone interested in world arts, mindfulness, Chinese Zen philosophy, or eastern practical spirituality in general.

Voyeurismus und Intimit瓣t in Degas’ Frau bei der Toilette. Werkanalyse unter dem Aspekt des Male Gaze nach Laura Mulvey

Max,Brenner  著
Ingram 出版
2020/12/31 出版

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2020 im Fachbereich Kunst - Kunstgeschichte, Note: 1,0, Humboldt-Universit瓣t zu Berlin (Institut f羹r Kunst- und Bildgeschichte), Veranstaltung: Malerei des Impressionismus: Modernit瓣t, Industrialisierung, Wahrnehmungstheorie, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit besch瓣ftigt sich mit zwei von Edgar Degas' Akt- und Boudoir-Werken und arbeitet die darin bewusst evozierte Intimit瓣t heraus. Als theoretischen Ausgangspunkt der Werkanalyse wird der Begriff des "male gaze" angewandt - der m瓣nnliche beobachtende Blick, der insbesondere von der britischen, feministischen Filmtheoretikerin Laura Mulvey besprochen und gepr瓣gt wurde. Damit wird aufgezeigt, wie man als Betrachter von Degas' "Frau bei der Toilette" einer sehr privaten und intimen Szene beiwohnt und durch die bemerkenswerte Bildkomposition eine spannende und reziproke Beziehung eingeht, die in einem charakteristischen Wechselspiel zwischen N瓣he und Distanz resultiert. Als Rezipient und Rezipientin nimmt man, m繹glicherweise ungewollt, eine voyeuristische Rolle ein. Edgar Degas war ein aufmerksamer Beobachter seiner Umwelt. Er verfolgte die impressionistischen Ideen durchaus kritisch, stand der akademischen Malerei stattdessen weniger kritisch gegen羹ber und besch瓣ftigte sich Zeit seines Lebens besonders mit Werken diverser 'gro?er Meister' (bspw. Giotto di Bondone, Giovanni Bellini, Diego Vel獺zquez, Rembrandt van Rijn, Tizian, Andrea Mantegna), die er beispielsweise im Louvre oder bei diversen und regelm瓣?igen Italienaufenthalten studierte und kopierte. Degas bevorzugte die Arbeit im Atelier, anders als seine damaligen Zeitgenossen, welche sich intensiv mit der Freiluftmalerei auseinandersetzten. Hinzu kommt die durchaus differente und kritische sozial-gesellschaftliche Themen- und Motivauswahl, die sich weitestgehend auf die Darstellungen von Menschen in diversen Lebens-, Arbeits- und Alltagssituationen beschr瓣nkte. Seine wohl umfangreichsten und bekanntesten Werkgruppen thematisier

The Book in the Cathedral

Ingram 出版
2020/12/28 出版

Medieval manuscript historian and author of the widely acclaimed Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts discovers the most intimate surviving relic of Thomas Beckett. The assassination of Thomas Becket in Canterbury Cathedral on December 29, 1170, is one of the most famous events in European history. It inspired the largest pilgrim site in medieval Europe and many works of literature from Chaucer's Canterbury Tales to T. S. Eliot's Murder in the Cathedral and Anouilh's Becket. In a brilliant piece of historical detective work, Christopher de Hamel here identifies the Anglo-Saxon Psalter which Becket cherished throughout his time as Archbishop of Canterbury and which he may even have been holding when he was murdered. Beautifully illustrated, this is an exciting rediscovery of one of the most evocative artifacts of medieval England and the only surviving relic from Becket's shrine.

The Lives of Lowbrow Artists

Ingram 出版
2020/12/25 出版

Most Americans have seen or enjoyed Lowbrow art without having even heard of it. Sometimes called the "Pop Surreal" art movement, the images and influence of Lowbrow art are widespread, appearing on album covers, in comics, and galleries across the US and around the world. But not much is known about the origin of the movement, or the stories behind the artist themselves. "Lives of the Lowbrow Artists" seeks to shed some light on the origin story of Lowbrow Art, starting with the artists who created the work. This first volume profiles some of the founding artists (Shag, Tim Biskup, Miles Thompson, Derek Yaniger, Brandi Milne) whose now iconic images gave rise to a movement that remains uniquely symbolic, subversive, and story-based to its core.

Performance come metodologia

Ingram 出版
2020/12/24 出版

Cos'癡 una metodologia? Performance come metodologia non si pone l'obiettivo di rispondere a questa domanda, ma vuole mettere in atto (quindi performare) una serie di interrogativi attorno all'uso della performance come pratica artistica ma soprattutto conoscitiva. Per far ci簷 il volume prende in esame alcuni metodi d'indagine che analizzano il medium espressivo della performance e, contemporaneamente, guarda a come la ricerca e l'esperienza conoscitiva presentino di per s矇 dei tratti rapportabili alla performance. Il testo intreccia percorsi di ricerca diversi che si relazionano tra di loro attraverso una doppia trama: si guarda alla performance come oggetto di studio e allo stesso tempo si mettono in evidenza gli aspetti performativi della metodologia di ricerca. La scrittura, come gesto, si lega a specifici contesti spazio-temporali e alla lettura di documenti, foto, tracce e come azione cambia continuamente forma. Il volume si compone di diverse tipologie testuali che vanno dall'analisi dei testi all'interpretazione personale, dal disegno grafico alla presentazione di esercizi performativi che potranno essere messi in atto da un ipotetico gruppo di persone."Nel web perdiamo la fisicit? del corpo e dei sensi che determinano l'esperienza. Prendiamo per esempio il tatto: toccare 癡 quel gesto "ambivalente" in cui il soggetto entra in relazione con l'altro, percependo anche la propria soggettivit?. Nel web il soggetto non fa esperienza attraverso l'ambivalenza tattile della percezione, influenzando ed essendone influenzato. Non c'癡 contaminazione (con, con + tangere toccare: letteralmente "con il toccare") perch矇 癡 stato materialmente eliminato l'altro con cui entrare in contatto. Viene a mancare quell'esperienza che trasforma le informazioni in qualcosa di tangibile che il nostro corpo possa percepire per produrne conoscenza. Il contatto con l'esperienza 癡 alla base del processo di apprendimento, infatti nel luogo di una classe - concepito come spazio fisico generico in cui avviene la condivisione tra soggetti - l'esperienza del conoscere si concretizza in un evento materiale e, pertanto, tangibile per il soggetto. Il contatto con il sapere che avviene in una classe non 癡 dato dalla prossimit? tra i diversi elementi che la compongono, ma attraverso un processo di differenziazione. Non 癡 un luogo intimo, ma uno spazio pubblico in cui 癡 importante mantenere la distanza tra i singoli soggetti". (Jacopo Miliani - dall'introduzione)

Ingram 出版
2020/12/20 出版

These objects are conventionally called ostraca, and thousands of them have been and continue to be discovered. This volume highlights some of the methodologies that have been developed for analyzing the archaeological contexts, material aspects, and textual peculiarities of ostraca.

Rodins Gipsfassung der ”B羹rger von Calais” und deren k羹nstlerische Rezeption von Candida H繹fer

Laura,Gruhn  著
Ingram 出版
2020/12/18 出版

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2019 im Fachbereich Kunst - Kunstgeschichte, Note: 1,0, Friedrich-Alexander-Universit瓣t Erlangen-N羹rnberg (Kunstgeschichte), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit besch瓣ftigt sich mit Auguste Rodins Gipsfassung "Die B羹rger von Calais", die auf der neunten Sezessionssausstellung und auf der vierten Biennale in Venedig 1901 ausgestellt wurde. Ziel ist es sowohl, Rodin als Person als auch sein OEuvre nach modernen Merkmalen zu analysieren. Dabei liegt ein Fokus auf den Gipsarbeiten, um darauf aufbauend ?berlegungen zur Gipsarbeit "Die B羹rger von Calais" nachvollziehen zu k繹nnen. Anschlie?end folgen eine Beschreibung und Analyse der sp瓣teren Rezeption des Werkes durch Candida H繹fer. Durch H繹fers Rezeption wird deutlich werden, inwiefern sich Rodins Plastik "Die B羹rger von Calais" einer neuen Fragestellung zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts widmet, da H繹fer diese in besonderer Weise zitiert und erweitert. Durch ihre fotografische Arbeit intensiviert sich der Eindruck der Plastik Rodins, wie auch die theoretischen ?berlegungen, die auf der Grundlage seiner Arbeit entstehen. Gleichzeitig wird der Diskurs um die Einordnung der Begriffe Original und Reproduktion um eine, sich mit dieser Frage erneut befassenden K羹nstlerin, bereichert. Rodins Gipsfassung befindet sich heute im Ca' Pesaro, als Teil der Sammlung der Galeria Internationale d'Arte Moderna. 1901 wurde sie von der Stadt Venedig f羹r diese Sammlung angekauft. Das Repertoire der Sammlung erfasst preisgekr繹nte Werke, welche in den fr羹hen Jahrzehnten des 20. Jahrhunderts auf der Biennale in Venedig ausgestellt und dann verkauft worden waren. Der Fokus der Sammlung liegt, wie bereits im Namen d'Arte Moderna (ital. Moderne Kunst) deutlich wird, auf der Moderne. Warum also Rodin mit seiner Plastik Einzug in diese Sammlung erh瓣lt, warum er Teil dieser modernen Sammlung ist, soll im Folgenden ebenso beantwortet werden, wie auch die Frage, wieso im Ca' Pesaro eine Gipsplastik, eigentlich im k

Modern Negro Art

Martino Fine 出版
2020/12/13 出版

2020 Reprint of 1943 Edition. Profusely illustrated with halftone plates. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Porter's work analyzes the important developments and individuals in African American painting and sculpture from the pre-Civil War period to World War II. "James A. Porter was an art historian, educator, curator, and visual artist. He is first remembered by academics as an art historian who taught some of the best minds and visual artists who studied at Howard University during the span of his teaching career. "A pioneer in establishing the field of African American art history," writes Jeffreen M. Hayes, who rightly declares that: James A. Porter was instrumental as the first scholar to provide a systematic, critical analysis of African American artists and their works of art. An artist himself, he provided a unique and critical approach to the analysis of the work. Dedicated to educating and writing about African American artists, Porter set the foundation for artists and art historians to probe and unearth the necessary skills essential to their artistic and scholarly endeavors. The canon is borne from Porter's determination to document and view African American art in the context of American art."Modern Negro Art, first published in 1943, made a broad and profound impact on the study of art in the United States as well as on those future African American artists and academics who would write about African visual art. "James A. Porter." Callaloo, vol. 39 no. 5, 2016, p. 1049-1120. Project MUSE.

Painting Dublin, 1886-1949

Ingram 出版
2020/12/09 出版

Delving into a hitherto unexplored aspect of Irish art history, Painting Dublin, 1886-1949 examines the depiction of Dublin by artists from the late-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century. Artists' representations of the city have long been markers of civic pride and identity, yet in Ireland such artworks have been overlooked in favour of the rural and pastoral. Framed by the shift from city of empire to capital of an independent republic, this book examines artworks by Walter Osborne, Rose Barton, Jack B. Yeats, Harry Kernoff, Estella Solomons and Flora Mitchell, encompassing a variety of urban views and artistic themes. While Dublin is already renowned for its representation in literature, this book will demonstrate the many attractions it held for Ireland's artists, offering a vivid visualisation of the city's streets and inhabitants at a crucial time in its history.

Zur Architektur der St. Aposteln Kirche in K繹ln

Anonym  著
Ingram 出版
2020/12/05 出版

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Kunst - Kunstgeschichte, Note: 1,0, Universit瓣t Duisburg-Essen (Kunstgeschichte), Veranstaltung: Romanische Kirchen, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In der folgenden Hausarbeit werde ich mich mit der Kirche St. Aposteln auseinandersetzen, eine der insgesamt zw繹lf romanischen Kirchen in K繹ln. Ich werde mit einem historischen Umriss beginnen und versuchen die Geschichte um den Bau und die vielen Umbau- beziehungsweise Restaurationsarbeiten der Kirche vom Baubeginn im 11. Jahrhundert bis heute zu er繹rtern. Der Schwerpunkt soll in meiner Arbeit allerdings auf den architektonischen Gegebenheiten der Kirche liegen, sowohl vom Au?enbau als auch vom Innenraum. Hier werde ich auch im Vergleich mit anderen Kirchenbauten besonderen Bezug auf die aufwendige Dreikonchenanlage und die Doppelch繹rigkeit von St. Aposteln nehmen. Nicht nur aus Gr羹nden der Vollst瓣ndigkeit, sondern auch wegen der an manchen Stellen nicht ganz unwichtigen Zusammenh瓣nge von Bau und Ausstattung der Kirche, folgt im Anschluss noch ein Teil zu einigen Werken innerhalb des Kirchenraums und zu ihrer Bedeutung f羹r den Stift. Im Vorhinein m繹chte ich noch erw瓣hnen, dass w瓣hrend meiner Recherche einige Fragen aufgetaucht sind, deren Antwort sich mir nicht sofort erschloss, unter anderem die anf瓣ngliche Westung der Kirche und die damit verbundenen Zusammenh瓣nge zum Petersdom in Rom. Da die Recherchearbeit zu den Antworten auf diese Fragen einen wichtigen Teil meiner Recherchearbeit 羹berhaupt darstellt und sich aufgrund jener die Grundstruktur meiner Hausarbeit erst entwickelt hat, wird der allgemeine Aufbau sich an diesen neugewonnenen Erkenntnissen meinerseits orientieren. Es gibt zum Thema St. Aposteln viel Literatur 羹ber die Restaurationen und den Wiederaufbau nach dem zweiten Weltkrieg, in denen 羹berall sehr detailliert beschrieben wird, wann welche ?nderungen stattfanden und was die Vorg瓣ngerbauten vom aktuellen Bau unterscheidet. Ich m繹chte all diesen Quellen auch

The Purma Camera Book

Ingram 出版
2020/12/03 出版

Picking up a camera that is 50 or more years old, understanding how it works, using it in the field and obtaining a set of unique photographs can be very rewarding. There are many how to books whether they are original camera manuals or photography technique books, but I found few books that help a photographer get the most from using old and vintage cameras in today's world. 

I chose to use Purma cameras as they are a somewhat eccentric series of cameras, relatively easy to use and readily available at a reasonable price from auction sites, car boot fairs, Facebook Marketplace, etc. The shutter mechanism, lens and body are all simple and it is therefore usually possible to understand whether a Purma camera is usable upon first inspection. The only issue that photographers may need to navigate is the supply of 127 film. It is available from some film suppliers or sourced by adapting 120 film.

Haunting Without Ghosts

University 出版
2020/12/02 出版

Winner, William M. LeoGrande Prize, Center for Latin American and Latino Studies at American University, 2022 For half a century, cultural production in Colombia has labored under the weight of magical realism-above all, the works of Gabriel Garc穩a M獺rquez-where ghosts told stories about the country's violent past and warned against a similarly gruesome future. Decades later, the story of violence in Colombia is no less horrific, but the critical resources of magical realism are depleted. In their wake comes "spectral realism." Juliana Mart穩nez argues that recent Colombian novelists, filmmakers, and artists-from Evelio Rosero and William Vega to Beatriz Gonz獺lez and Erika Diettes-share a formal and thematic concern with the spectral but shift the focus from what the ghost is toward what the specter does. These works do not speak of ghosts. Instead, they use the specter to destabilize reality by challenging the authority of human vision and historical chronology. By introducing the spectral into their work, these artists decommodify well-worn modes of representing violence and create a critical space from which to seek justice for the dead and disappeared. A Colombia-based study, Haunting without Ghosts brings powerful insight to the politics and ethics of spectral aesthetics, relevant for a variety of sociohistorical contexts.

The Art of Medieval Jewelry

T N,Pollio  著
Ingram 出版
2020/12/01 出版

What are the origins of the imagery and designs on common jewelry and portable artwork between late antiquity and the Middle Ages? These dynamic centuries encompass the transformation of the Greco-Roman world into the nascent kingdoms and medieval states upon which most modern European nations are based. The choices of jewelry and other forms of personal expression among the lower classes in ancient times is notoriously difficult to contextualize for a number of reasons. Nonetheless, these precious articles were expressions of individual identity as well as signifiers of rites of passage. As such, they reflect not only the people who wore them, but also the social milieu and artistic trends at that moment in time. This new study assists in identifying the types, origins and routes of transmission of personal artwork, particularly finger rings, across Europe and Byzantium, an area of study that has been neglected in previous works. Some of this material represents the first time relevant research from Central and Eastern Europe has been translated and made available to the general reader in the English-speaking world.

Der Heilsspiegelaltar von Konrad Witz um 1400-1446

Ingram 出版
2020/11/25 出版

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2020 im Fachbereich Kunst - Kunstgeschichte, Note: 6,0, Universit瓣t Bern (Institut f羹r Kunstwissenschaften), Veranstaltung: Sp瓣tmittelalterliche Skulptur und Malerei am Oberrhein und in der Schweiz, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In der nachfolgenden Abhandlung wird der Autor nebst der Beschreibung des Heilspiegelaltars vertieft auf die Darstellung der Sibylle von Tibur eingehen. Sie erscheint hier zusammen mit Kaiser Augustus und war bei Gelehrten und Laien im Mittelalter die bekannteste prophetische Seherin. Bei den Bildbeschreibungen wird an der Au?enseite, das hei?t der Alltagsseite, zuerst die obere und danach die untere Reihe beschrieben, dasselbe Vorgehen gilt auch f羹r die innere Seite, die jeweils an Festtagen ge繹ffnet wurde. Der Heilsspiegelaltar, das Hauptwerk von Konrad Witz, ist immer noch ein Mysterium. Genau genommen ist alles an im fraglich. Weder kann die urspr羹ngliche Bestimmung der zw繹lf Tafeln mit Sicherheit festgestellt werden noch ihre zeitliche Entstehung noch die Zusammensetzung und den Standort des Altars. Sogar die Autorenschaft des Malers Konrad Witz, so einleuchtend und unantastbar sie scheint und heute von Kunstwissenschaftlern kaum noch bezweifelt wird, ist nur auf dem Weg 羹ber Kombination von Urkunden und Stilvergleichen erschlossen worden. Aufgrund der vielen fehlenden Tafel 羹berzeugen auch die zahlreichen j羹ngsten Rekonstruktionsversuche nicht restlos. Gab es den Heilsspiegel Altar 羹berhaupt - oder stammen die Tafeln m繹glicherweise von einer Folge kleinformatiger Alt瓣re?
