ISBN: 9781443821483 / Twarda / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book explores entanglements of power relations and forces of desire in life narratives and visual images.

The book will be of particular interest for researchers and graduate students in the fields...

Sol: Image and Meaning of the Sun in Roman Art and Religion
ISBN: 9789004516526 / Twarda / 1458 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. With this analysis of Sol images, Steven E. Hijmans paints a new picture of the solar cult in ancient Rome. The paucity of literary evidence led Hijmans to prioritize visual sources, and he opens this study with a thorough discussion of the theoretical and methodological issues involved. Emphasizing the danger of facile equivalencies between visual and verbal meanings, his primary focus is Roman praxis, manifest in, for instance, the strict patterning of Sol imagery. These patterns encode core concepts that Sol imagery evoked when deployed, and in those concepts we recognize the bedrock of...

Contemporary Art and Classical Myth
ISBN: 9780754669746 / Twarda / 394 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Contemporary art is deeply engaged with the subject of classical myth. Yet within the literature on contemporary art, little has been said about this provocative relationship. Composed of fourteen original essays, Contemporary Art and Classical Myth addresses this scholarly gap, exploring, and in large part establishing, the multifaceted intersection of contemporary art and classical myth. Moving beyond the notion of art as illustration, the essays assembled here adopt a range of methodological frameworks, from iconography to deconstruction, and do so across an impressive range of artists and...

Documenting Spain: Artists, Exhibition Culture, and the Modern Nation, 1929-1939
ISBN: 9780271024745 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The news media have given us potent demonstrations of the ambiguity of ostensibly truthful representations of public events. Jordana Mendelson uses this ambiguity as a framework for the study of Spanish visual culture from 1929 to 1939--a decade marked, on the one hand, by dictatorship, civil war, and Franco's rise to power and, on the other, by a surge in the production of documentaries of various types, from films and photographs to international exhibitions. Mendelson begins with an examination of El Pueblo Espanol, a model Spanish village featured at the 1929 International...

Foster developed a consummate eye, combining a yachtsman's experience on the water with the instincts of an art connoisseur.

Buttersworth, Frederic Schiller...

Striving to cover a broad geographical and chronological span, and to bring new material to light, this title aims to provide an overview of religious images and iconoclasm, starting with the consequences of the Byzantine image controversy and ending with the Eastern Orthodox churches of the nineteenth century.

Bodyscape : Art, Modernity and the Ideal Figure
ISBN: 9780415098007 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Western art has long sought to find a perfect method of representing the body. At the same time as we have lost faith in the certainty of the modernist project, the perfect, straight, white body of modernism is now seen as fiction. But what sort of body will take its place? This work explores body images in visual culture, from revolutionary France to contemporary New York. It engages with artists' use of different kinds of body images in painting, sculpture, photography and film, and shows the centrality of the body in the work of artists from da Vinci to Manet, from Paul Strand to Kiki...
