Anarchism and the Advent of Paris Dada: Art and Criticism, 1914-1924
ISBN: 9780754666264 / Angielski / Twarda / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Anarchism and the Advent of Paris Dada sheds new light on Paris Dada's role in developing the anarchist and individualist philosophies that helped shape the cultural dialogue in France following the First World War. Drawing on such surviving documentation as correspondence, criticism, periodicals, pamphlets, and manifestoes, this book argues that, contrary to received wisdom, Dada was driven by a vision of social change through radical cultural upheaval. The first book-length study to interrogate the Paris Dadaists' complex and often contested position in the postwar groundswell of...

Widowhood and Visual Culture in Early Modern Europe
ISBN: 9780754607311 / Angielski / Twarda / 388 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Whereas recent studies of early modern widowhood by social, economic and cultural historians have called attention to the often ambiguous, yet also often empowering, experience and position of widows within society, Widowhood and Visual Culture in Early Modern Europe is the first book to consider the distinct and important relationship between ritual and representation. The fifteen new interdisciplinary essays assembled here read widowhood as a catalyst for the production of a significant body of visual material-representations of, for and by widows, whether through traditional media, such as...

Despite the increased visibility of Victorian women artists in museum exhibitions and historical studies, the art produced by Victorian women has been viewed through a restrictive lens.

ISBN: 9780754657118 / Angielski / Twarda / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Neo-Impressionism and Anarchism in Fin-de-Siecle France, Robyn Roslak examines for the first time the close relationship between neo-impressionist landscapes and cityscapes and the anarchist sympathies of the movement's artists. She focuses in particular on paintings produced between 1886 and 1905 by Paul Signac and Maximilien Luce, the neo-impressionists whose fidelity to anarchism, to the art of landscape and to a belief in the social potential of art was strongest. Although the neo-impressionists are best known for their rational and scientific technique, they also heeded the era's call...

Drawing France: French Comics and the Republic
ISBN: 9781617033230 / Angielski / Miękka / 305 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In France, Belgium, and other Francophone countries, comic strips--called bande dessinee or -BD- in French--have long been considered a major art form capable of addressing a host of contemporary issues. Among French-speaking intelligentsia, graphic narratives were deemed worthy of canonization and critical study decades before the academy and the press in the United States embraced comics. The place that BD holds today, however, belies the contentious political route the art form has traveled. In Drawing France: French Comics and the Republic, author Joel E. Vessels examines the...

Dressed as in a Painting: Women and British Aestheticism in an Age of Reform
ISBN: 9781611684384 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Dressed as in a Painting, Kimberly Wahl provides a lucid exploration of the interrelations between fashion, art, and aestheticism during the latter half of the nineteenth century. Although artistic forms of dress have been the subject of short studies before, no book has exclusively focused on aesthetic dress and its various expressions in the visual cultures of Victorian Britain. More importantly, no book has attempted to investigate the gap between the material facts of artistic clothing as it was embodied in the wearer, and its presence as an idealized sartorial trope in the visual and...

Art and Aesthetics After Adorno
ISBN: 9780823253098 / Angielski / Miękka / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Theodor Adorno's Aesthetic Theory (1970) offers one of the most powerful and comprehensive critiques of art and of the discipline of aesthetics ever written. The work offers a deeply critical engagement with the history and philosophy of aesthetics and with the traditions of European art through the middle of the 20th century. It is coupled with ambitious claims about what aesthetic theory ought to be. But the cultural horizon of Adorno's Aesthetic Theory was the world of high modernism, and much has happened since then both in theory and in practice. Adorno's powerful vision of aesthetics...
