Michelangelo: A Study in the Nature of Art
ISBN: 9781138150331 / Angielski / Twarda / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 16-18 dni roboczych Adrian Stokes was one of the twentieth century's finest and most discriminating writers on art. Of over twenty works of art criticism, Michelangelo was considered by Lawrence Gowing to be the most complete he ever wrote, presenting an understanding of the great artist that no one subsequently could afford to ignore. Stokes brings to bear in this work not only twenty-five years' study and appreciation of Italian Renaissance art and of aesthetics, but also a unique psychological perspective, as he explains in his introduction, which enables him to uncover the depths of the artist's...

A significant contribution to the understanding of sixteenth-century English art in an historical context, this study by Susan James represents an intensive rethinking and restructuring of the Tudor art world based on a broad, detailed survey of women's diverse creative roles within that world.

Anarchism and the Advent of Paris Dada: Art and Criticism, 1914 1924
ISBN: 9781138274402 / Angielski / Miękka / 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...

Neo-Impressionism and Anarchism in Fin-De-Siècle France: Painting, Politics and Landscape
ISBN: 9781138248397 / Angielski / Miękka / 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...

Gender, Space, and the Gaze in Post-Haussmann Visual Culture: Beyond the Flâneur
ISBN: 9781472445865 / Angielski / Twarda / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Charles Baudelaire's flaneur, as described in his 1863 essay -The Painter of Modern Life, - remains central to understandings of gender, space, and the gaze in late nineteenth-century Paris, despite misgivings by some scholars. Baudelaire's privileged and leisurely figure, at home on the boulevards, underlies theorizations of bourgeois masculinity and, by implication, bourgeois femininity, whereby men gaze and roam urban spaces unreservedly while women, lacking the freedom to either gaze or roam, are wedded to domesticity. In challenging this tired paradigm and offering...

Stunning reproductions of sculptures and paintings by the extraordinary French-born artist Henri Barande (b. 1945) are presented in this new monograph, along with essays exploring Barande's artistic achievements. Barande believes his life is a prolongation of a death that has already occurred, and that his work is the surviving version of a previous existence, leading to the creation of a world of miniature forms and figures as well as monumental canvases. For 50 years Barande kept his work private, but 20 years ago American curator and critic David Galloway discovered Barande and persuaded...

A lavish edition of 94 ekphrastic haiku and senryu in Irish and English responding to full-colour collages by Karl Waldmann Judgement Day is Gabriel Rosenstock's "latest reckoning of who and what we are between the shoals of eternal good and historical evil, vision and blindness.
