David James
Art, Myth and Society in Hegel`s Aesthetics (Continuum Studies in Philosophy)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This is an important new monograph relating Hegel`s aesthetics to his philosophies of religion and history and, in particular, his philosophy of right. `Art, Myth and Society in Hegel`s Aesthetics` returns to the student transcripts of Hegel`s lectures on aesthetics, some of which have never been published and none of which have been translated into English, in an attempt to systematically relate Hegel`s aesthetics to his philosophies of religion and history and, in particular, his philosophy of right. David James develops the idea that these transcripts show that Hegel was primarily interested in understanding art as an historical phenomenon and, in terms of its function in human history, more specifically, its role in the ethical life of the people. The book thus offers a thorough re-evaluation of Hegel`s aesthetics and its relation to his theory of objective spirit, exposing the ways in which Hegel`s views on this subject are anchored in his reflections on history and on different… [detailed...]

Edited by Joanna Cannon and Beth Williamson
Art, Politics, and Civic Religion in Central Italy. 1261-1352

2000 y.
Publisher: Ashgate
Description: Introduced by Joanna Cannon, this volume of essays by postgraduate students at the Courtauld Institute, University of London, explores some of the ways in which art was used to express, to celebrate, and to promote the political and religious aims and aspirations of those in power in the city-states of central Italy in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. The contributions focus on four centres: Siena, Arezzo, Pisa, and Orvieto, and range over a number of media: fresco, panel painting, sculpture, metalwork, and translucent enamel. Employing a variety of methods and approaches, these stimulating essays offer a fresh look at some of the key artistic projects of the period. The dates cited in the title, 1261 and 1352, refer to two well-known works, Coppo di Marcovaldo`s Madonna del Bordone and the Guidoriccio fresco in the Palazzo Pubblico of Siena, here newly assigned to this date. By concentrating on individual cases such as these, the essays provide rewardingly sustained… [detailed...]

Petr Wittlich
Art-Nouveau Prague

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Since the collapse of the Iron Curtain in 1991, Prague has become one of Europe’s—and the world’s—most popular tourist destinations. As in London, Paris, and Rome, visitors flock to the gorgeous buildings and monuments that grace the streets of Prague, entranced by structures ranging from Gothic and baroque to cubist and neoclassical. And while hundreds of thousands stroll over the Charles Bridge and gaze up at the St. Vitus Cathedral each year, far fewer venture away from the crowds to seek out the countless gems of art nouveau peppered throughout Prague. With Art-Nouveau Prague, Petr Wittlich—one of Europe’s leading experts on nineteenth- and twentieth-century architecture—tours those monuments and buildings of Prague representative of the art nouveau movement and offers insightful commentary on each. Along the way, Wittlich visits such sites as the Municipal House, the Wilson Railway Station, the Grand Hotel Europa, and works by sculptors Frantisek Bilek, Ladislav Saloun, and… [detailed...]

Art/Museums: International Relations Where We Least Expect It (Media and Power) (Media and Power)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Art/Museums takes the study of international relations to the art museum. It seeks to persuade those who study international relations to take art/museums seriously and for museum studies scholars to take up the insights of international relations. And it does so at a time when both international relations and art are said to be at an end that is, out of control and beyond sight of their usual constituencies. The book focuses on the British Museum, the National Gallery of London, the Museum of Iraq, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Getty museums, the Guggenheim museums, and museum spaces instantly created by the attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001. The art includes works over which museums might struggle, acquire through questionable means, hoard and possibly lose, such as the Parthenon sculptures, Raphael s Madonna of the Pinks, the ancient art of Babylon, modern art, and the art/museum itself in an era of rapid museum expansion. Bringing art, museums, and… [detailed...]

Art: 21 : Art in the 21st Century 3

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Amazon.comWhat if work by 21 prominent contemporary artists could be described in terms of familiar topics rather than specialized mumbo-jumbo? That was the idea behind Art: 21: Art in the Twenty-First Century . Each of the four essayists takes onetopic--place, spirituality, identity, or consumption--as the launching point for discussions of a varied group of American artists. Produced to accompany a PBS television series, this amply illustrated book embraces art ranging from the sexually charged sculptures of Louise Bourgeois (born in 1911) to paintings by Michael Ray Charles (born in 1967) that rework black stereotypes into ironic commentaries. The artists are certainly worthy, and it`s no big deal that the art is nearly all from the 20th century (not, as the title suggests, the 21st). But the thematic approach works better for some artists than for others, and the effort to be inclusive makes for vague and awkward writing. --Cathy Curtis Book Description Published to… [detailed...]

Today there are thousands of schools, clinics, farms, and many other organizations based on his ideas. Steiner`s original contribution to human knowledge was based on his ability to conduct spiritual research, the investigation of metaphysical dimensions of existence. With his scientific and philosophical training, he brought a new systematic discipline to the field, allowing for conscious methods and comprehensive results. A natural seer from childhood, he cultivated his spiritual vision to a high degree, enabling him to speak with authority on previously veiled mysteries of life. Topics… [detailed...]

Art: The Critics` Choice

1999 y.
Publisher: Watson-Guptill
Description: This book takes a refreshingly different approach to its subject. Although the treatment is chronological, each of the chapters explores one of ten stages in the development of Western art through a detailed discussion of fifteen key works, which range from well-known masterpieces such as Michelangelo`s Sistine Chapel or Manet`s Dejeuner sur l`Herbe to neglected gems which are known only to specialists but which speak volumes about the artists and their times. Each chapter begins with an overview of the period which is followed by self contained essays on each work, mostly paintings, but including some sculptures. The contributors` brief has been to explain the works as exemplars of their period in both aesthetic and social terms and, in so doing, to show how they fit into the broader context of the Western artistic canon.

Art`s Prospect : The Challenge of Tradition in an Age of Celebrity

2003 y.

Description: Book DescriptionThis book illuminates some of the chief spiritual itineraries of modern art.Download DescriptionRoger Kimball`s incisive essays examine the art world from a fresh, skeptical perspective. From Gauguin and the Pre-Raphaelites to the latestexercises in artistic absurdity, Kimball`s keen eye and lucid prose makes for bracing, entertaining reading. He sets himself dead against the shallow rhetoric and celebrity/money culture of the contemporary art world, breathing new excitement into debates over what we value in art and why. Art`s Prospect is savage and hilarious in debunking chalatanism, but at the same time informed and insightful in revealing the best of contemporary art. Whether he is meditating on the concept of kitsch in the Pre-Raphaelites, the cultural pathology that has led critics to compare Gilbert and George`s preposterous images with the Isenheim altarpiece, or the genius of such disparate painters as Paul Gauguin and Richard Diebenkorn, Kimball proves… [detailed...]
