Art For Travellers Greece: The Essential Guide To Viewing Art In Greece (Art for Travellers)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe art of Classical Greece has had an astonishing influence on Western art for more than two millennia. Art in Greece, however, extends over even more millennia. Neolithic material dates from about 7000 BCE. Rich and separable styles have been reliably dated by experts from as long ago as 3000 BCE. Greek art, in short, is not just marble statues of Venus and ruins of temples, wonderful though these are. It ranges over the full gamut of styles from abstract geometric to vivid realism. This travel guide for art lovers winds through the main periods and styles of over three millennia of art on the islands and mainland. Even without a detailed knowledge of Greek civilization, it is an enjoyable trail to follow, but this book enhances the enjoyment by throwing light on the myths and beliefs that inspired and guided the art. It also gives some practical information about travel, opening times, social life and eating in Greece. These trails through Greece focus on… [detailed...]

Ernst Haeckel
Art Forms in Nature

2009 y.
Publisher: Prestel
Description: The geometric shapes and natural forms, captured with exceptional precision in Ernst Haeckel`s prints, continue to influence artists and designers to this day. This attractive volume highlights the research and findings of this outstanding natural scientist. Powerful modern microscopes have confirmed the accuracy of Haeckel`s prints which, even in their day, rightly became world famous. Haeckel`s exceptional portfolio, first published between 1899 and 1904 in separate installments, is described in the opening essays. The plates illustrate Haeckel`s fundamental monistic notion of the `unity of all living things,` and the wide variety of forms are executed with utmost delicacy. Incipient microscopic organisms are juxtaposed with highly developed plants and animals. The pages, ordered according to geometric and `constructive` aspects, handsomely document the oneness of the world in its most diversified forms. This collection of plates was well-received not only by scientists, but… [detailed...]

Art Glass (Miller`s How to Compare &, Value)

2002 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Covering both American art glass and European ware, this informative and colourful volume serves as a guide for both novice and experienced collectors in the appraisal of art glass. The author shares the secrets of professional appraisers as she shows how to assess style, condition, authenticity and value using a compare-and-contrast format. Apparently similar pieces are analyzed side-by-side to determine why one is more valuable than the other, or why one is a treasure and the other, not quite. Full-colour photographs of art glass pieces from each of the more than 50 featured glassmakers appear on facing pages, surrounded by call-outs highlighting each piece`s value features - those key factors, such as design, execution, material, and condition that account for the item`s relative market value. The author hones in on the salient value features and clearly explains what makes one item worth more than another. [detailed...]

Art History, Aesthetics, Visual Studies (Clark Studies in the Visual Arts)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionArt history, aesthetics, and visual studies today find themselves in contested new philosophical and institutional circumstances. This fascinating and challenging volume explores the connections and differences among these three methods of investigating visual representation. What are the dominant aesthetic assumptions underlying art historical inquiry? How have these assumptions been challenged by visual studies? Are questions of quality, form, content, meaning, and spectatorship culturally specific? Can we still define the parameters of what should properly constitute the objects of the history of art? Fifteen distinguished scholars answer these and other questions, critically examining the relationships among these three scholarly fields from their founding moments through their contemporary practices.

Art In Our Time: A Chronicle of the Museum of Modern Art

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionIn the late 1920s, conservative policies were the norm among traditional museums--that is, until three progressive patrons of the arts decided to establish an institution devoted exclusively to modern art. When The Museum of Modern Art was founded in 1929, its first director, Alfred H. Barr, Jr., dedicated it to helping people understand and enjoy the new visual arts of the time, his hope was that this new institution would offer New York ` perhaps the greatest museum of modern art in theworld.` The public responded with enthusiasm--and has continued to do so over the history of the Museum`s extraordinary development: from an initial gift of eight prints and one drawing, MoMA`s collection has grown to include over 100,000 paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, photographs, architectural models and drawings, and design objects, 19,000 films and four million film stills, and 160,000 books, artists` books, and periodicals. Published on the occasion of the Museum`s… [detailed...]

Art Nouveau Domestic Metalwork From WurttembergIische Metallwarenfabrik 1906

2008 y.
Publisher: Antique Collectors Club Dist A/C, Antique Collectors Club, Ltd.
Description: Around the turn of the century, Wurtemberg Electro Plate Company as the firm was known outside Germany, was the world`s largest manufacturer and exporter of household metalware. At its height, over 6000 workers were employed in Germany, Poland and Austria, and almost 10000 designs for objects ranging from teaspoons to enormous table centrepieces were produced. Widely known by its initials WMF, the company sometimes employed the services of leading German designers of the day, but for the most part the wares were in a popular `Jugendstil` style, the German version of Art Nouveau. These decorative pieces are highly sought after today and are prized by collectors throughout the world. WMF`s domination of the export market is illustrated by the fact that they produced a sumptuous catalogue showing over 3000 domestic pieces with descriptions in English. This catalogue was issued in 1906 by the company`s English subsidiary from their showroom in Fore Street, London, and as each… [detailed...]
