The Parallel Worlds of Classical Art and Text
ISBN: 9780521815222 / Angielski / Twarda / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Considering the relationship between artists and texts throughout classical antiquity, this study systematically applies new and objective criteria to judge the fidelity between picture and text. It becomes clear that artists illustrate stories, not texts, and Jocelyn Penny Small argues that artistic transmissions follow the model of oral, not textual, transmission where the variant rules and there is no original. Pictures on vases, she demonstrates, should not be used to reconstruct lost literary works.

The Crossing of the Visible
ISBN: 9780804733915 / Angielski / Twarda / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Painting, according to Jean-Luc Marion, is a central topic of concern for philosophy, particularly phenomenology. For the question of painting is, at its heart, a question of visibility--of appearance. As such, the painting is a privileged case of the phenomenon; the painting becomes an index for investigating the conditions of appearance--or what Marion describes as -phenomenality- in general. In The Crossing of the Visible, Marion takes up just such a project. The natural outgrowth of his earlier reflections on icons, these four studies carefully consider the history of...

Shifting Priorities: Gender and Genre in Seventeenth-Century Dutch Painting
ISBN: 9780804744775 / Angielski / Miękka / 163 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This ground-breaking book offers the first sustained examination of Dutch seventeenth-century genre painting from a theoretically informed feminist perspective. Other recent works that deal with images of women in this field maintain the paradoxical combination of seeing the images as positivist reflections of "life as it was" and as emblems of virtue and vice. These reductionist practices deprive the works of their complex nature and of their place in visual culture, important frameworks that the book attempts to restore to them. Salomon expands the possibilities for understanding both...

I asked, shouting over the wind.O Keeffe raised her eyes skyward, resting both hands on the cane. She looked slowly all around, squinting against the flying sand, her white dress flapping loudly. Then she lowered her eyes toward me. You tell me what they are, she said.At first I thought she was jesting. I knew she could see them, or I thought she could. But she waited patiently, looking at me. I turned back to...

Ukrainian Cossacks used icon painting to investigate their relationship not only with God but also their relationship with the Russian tsar.

Why did the Cossack colonials commission icons with the portraits of their tsars, but not of their own Cossack leaders, the hetmans? Could a Catholic king be portrayed in an Orthodox icon? Why are the Russian tsars and Orthodox hierarchs missing on some of the Zaporozhian Cossack icons? In this groundbreaking study,...

ISBN: 9781425958428 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An artist tumbles through a labyrinth of experiential realities and profound feelings. The most beautiful feeling is that of escaping the tyranny of reality and being free from the ties of objectivity. The wide range of my early works shows my anxious pursuit of myself in my art.

I was a revolutionary, irascible and uncontrolled, constantly experimenting and searching for the true expression of my inner voice. By 1974, I finally found my clearly unmistakable trademark, my unambiguous style. I needed the last...
