Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich Kunst - Grafik, Druck, Note: 1,0, Technische Universitat Berlin, Veranstaltung: Seminar: Formen der Allegorie, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Noch heute, nach annahernd 500 Jahren, gibt es von Durers Kupferstich Melencolia I" keine allgemein anerkannte ikonographische und ikonologische Deutung. Und das trotz unausgesetzter Interpretationsbemuhungen, von den altesten zu Lebzeiten Durers bis hin zu den jungsten der Gegenwart. Haufig entstanden Mangel bei der Analyse dadurch, dass der Stich nach reiner Anschaulichkeit ausgelegt wurde, eine Uberbewertung von Einzelbeobachtungen zu einseitigen Verzerrungen fuhrte und historische Quellen falsch verwertet oder ganzlich unbekannt waren. Im Grossteil der Deutungen ist zu erkennen, dass die Vielschichtigkeit des Stichs nicht durchschaut und dementsprechend nur unzulanglich wiedergegeben werden konnte. Das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist nicht, diesen Interpretationen im einzelnen nachzugehen. Vielmehr sollen haufig diskutierte Fragenkomplexe und Allegoriefelder angefuhrt werden, um daran die Probleme bei der Deutung von Durers Melencolia I" aufzuzeig

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 1998 im Fachbereich Kunst - Grafik, Druck, Note: 2,0, Universitat Karlsruhe (TH) (Institut fur Kunstgeschichte), Veranstaltung: Weiterfuhrendes Seminar: George Grosz, 10 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: George Grosz wurde am 26. Juli 1893 als Georg Ehrenfried Gross in Berlin geboren und ist der kritischste Zeichner Deutschlands in der Zeit von Beginn des ersten Weltkrieges bis zum Ausbruch des zweiten Weltkrieges. Die vorliegende Arbeit zeigt kurz die politische Situation wahrend der Vorkriegs- und Kriegsjahre des ersten Weltkrieges und die kunstlerische Entwicklung von Georg Grosz anhand seines Fruhwerks in dieser Zeit. Vorwiegend wird aus seine Zeichnungen eingegangen, weil sie als Basis aller druckgraphischen Werke und Gemalde dienen. Sie sind die Quelle, aus der er schopft, und aus der Zeit bis 1918 sind 41 erfasst. Wenn auch in seinem Fruhwerk keine politische Haltung formuliert ist, so zeigt doch seine fruhe Beschaftigung mit dem Thema Mord seine Sensibilitat fur zukunftige Ereignisse. Der Massenmord an der Bevolkerung ist eine Erfahrung, die es vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg in diesen Ausmassen nicht gegeben hat. Vorrangig wird anhand dieses Sujets sein Fruhwerk erlautert, da sein Reifeprozess an diesen Werken am deutlichsten erkennbar ist. Der Endpunkt der Betrachtung seines Fruhwerks ist das Jahr 1

Kein anderes Werk hat in der kunsthistorischen Forschung so viele Anschauungen, Deutungen und kontroverse Interpretationen erfahren, wie dieser Kupferstich. Durer gelang es, 1514 ein Meisterwerk zu schaffen, dessen einzelne Bildelemente sondiert zwar interpretierbar sind, das sich jedoch einer zusammenhangenden, vollendeten Bildinterpretation entzieht. Unzahlige Kunsthistoriker versuchten dieses Werk Durers zu analysieren, doch keiner von ihnen kam zu einer vollstandigen und eindeutigen ikonologischen Analyse. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, eine Darstellung der Temperamentenlehre bis zur Zeit Durers zu liefern, insbesondere die Entwicklung des Melancholikers. Des Weiteren werde ich eine Interpretation der einzelnen Bildelemente, beziehungsweise des ganzen Stiches vornehmen, die sich auf dieses Temperament bezieht

Magisterarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Kunst - Grafik, Druck, Note: 1,0, Philipps-Universitat Marburg (Kunstgeschichtliches Institut), 77 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Anmerkungen: Kommentar des Gutachters: Sehr kluge Analyse des Gegenstandes, die den Stand der Forschung um einige Fragestellungen erweitert. Hervorragende Bildbeschreibungen., Abstract: Heute beschreiben Historiker ihn als die Urkatastrophe des 20. Jahrhunderts" (Burgdorff u. Wiegrefe). Der Erste Weltkrieg sprengte alle bisher gultigen Kategorien und wurde zum Paradigma der Gewalterfahrung. Neueste Waffentechniken forderten die maximale Zerstorung. Der zermurbende Stellungs- und Grabenkrieg, der vor allem die Westfront bestimmte, verwustete ganze Landstriche und forderte insgesamt uber 3 Millionen tote Soldaten auf allen Seiten. Otto Dix, Kunstler und Soldat, kehrte nach vier Jahren Kriegsdienst an der Front unversehrt zuruck. Das Erleben des Krieges pragte fortan sein kunstlerisches Schaffen. Diese Arbeit widmet sich seinem 1924 veroffentlichten Radierzyklus "Der Krieg," in dem er das Sterben und Vegetieren der Soldaten in den Schutzengraben des Ersten Weltkrieges schilderte. Es wird die ideologisch gefuhrte Debatte dargestellt, die sich seit der Veroffentlichung 1924 um die Radierungen entspann und der Bogen bis zum gegenwartige Stand der Forschung gespannt. Die Analyse legt u.a. die kunstlerischen Strategien dar, die Dix entwickelte, um dem Betrachter glaubhaft zu vermitteln, hier die Wirklichkeit, wie er sie erfahren hatte, zu schildern. So integrierte Dix beispielsweise in seine Bildkompositionen charakteristische Asthetiken von Reportagefotografien, um den Authentizitateindruck des Dargestellten zu verstarken. Aber auch der Vergleich mit zeitgenossischer Kriegsliteratur spielt in diesem Zusammenhang eine Rolle. Letztlich wird der Frage nachgegangen, inwiefern die 50 Radierungen des Zyklus eine Reflexion und Visualisierung der kriegsbedingten Traumatisierung des

In "Peasants, Warriors, and Wives," Keith Moxey examines woodcut images from the German Reformation that have often been ignored as a crude and inferior form of artistic production. In this richly illustrated study, Moxey argues that while they may not satisfy received notions of "art," they nevertheless constitute an important dimension of the visual culture of the period. Far from being manifestations of universal public opinion, as a cursory acquaintance with their subject matter might suggest, such prints were the means by which the reformed attitudes of the middle and upper classes were disseminated to a broad popular audience.

Abject Eroticism in Northern Renaissance Art - The Witches and Femmes Fatales of Hans Baldung Grien (Paperback): Yvonne Owens Abject Eroticism in Northern Renaissance Art - The Witches and Femmes Fatales of Hans Baldung Grien (Paperback)
Yvonne Owens; Foreword by Joseph Leo Koerner
R1,248 Discovery Miles 12 480 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Hans Baldung Grien, the most famous apprentice and close friend of German artist Albrecht Dürer, was known for his unique and highly eroticised images of witches. In paintings and woodcut prints, he gave powerful visual expression to late medieval tropes and stereotypes, such as the poison maiden, venomous virgin, the Fall of Man, ‘death and the maiden’ and other motifs and eschatological themes, which mingled abject and erotic qualities in the female body. Yvonne Owens reads these images against the humanist intellectual milieu of Renaissance Germany, showing how classical and medieval medicine and natural philosophy interpreted female anatomy as toxic, defective and dangerously beguiling. She reveals how Hans Baldung exploited this radical polarity to create moralising and titillating portrayals of how monstrous female sexuality victimised men and brought them low. Furthermore, these images issued from—and contributed to—the contemporary understanding of witchcraft as a heresy that stemmed from natural ‘feminine defect,’ a concept derived from Aristotle. Offering new and provocative interpretations of Hans Baldung’s iconic witchcraft imagery, this book is essential reading for historians of art, culture and gender relations in the late medieval and early modern periods.

Max Liebermann (1847-1935)-a co-founder of the Berlin Secession and President of the Akademie der Kunste for many years-was one of the most important artists of his generation. In addition to his impressive painting oeuvre, Liebermann's graphic prints also assume an important role: over 600 motifs as etchings, lithographs, and woodcuts are found today in museum and private collections around the world. This catalogue provides an introduction to Liebermann's graphic prints based on selected works from the collection of the Max Liebermann Society Berlin. It also presents common printmaking techniques and provides a detailed examination of the development of the graphic prints by the most signifi cant representative of Impressionism. The focus is thus on the history of the collecting and exhibiting of his print graphic works as well as the research on these works.

George Baxter (1804-1867) was a pioneer in advancing the art of colour printing. A perfectionist, Baxter not only engraved but also examined the prints as they were produced, often providing touch-ups by hand. Baxter's process was, in the end, uneconomical, and he died bankrupt, but no one did more to bring vivid artworks within financial reach of every household, or leave a more colourful legacy for generations of admiring collectors of Victoriana. His oil-coloured prints have given viewers pleasure since they began appearing in the 1830s. Thanks to Donald and Barbara Cameron's generous donation of their Baxter collection in 2010, the Bruce Peel Special Collections & Archives was able to mount a remarkable exhibition.

Sharon Gregory
R4,689 Discovery Miles 46 890 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Prints changed the history of art, even as that history was first being written. In this study, Sharon Gregory argues that this reality was not lost on Vasari; she shows that, contrary to common opinion, prints thoroughly pervade Vasari's history of art, just as they pervade his own career as an artist. This volume examines Giorgio Vasari's interest, as an art historian and as an artist, in engravings and woodblock prints, shedding new light not only on aspects of Vasari's career, but also on aspects of sixteenth-century artistic culture and artistic practice. It is the first book to study his interest in prints from this dual perspective. Investigating how prints were themselves more often interpretive than strictly reproductive, Gregory challenges the long-held view that Vasari's reliance on prints led to errors in his interpretation of major monuments. She demonstrates how, like Raphael and later artists, Vasari used engravings after his designs as a form of advertisement through which he hoped to increase his fame and attract influential patrons. She also explores how contributing illustrations for books by his scholarly friends, Vasari participated in the contemporary exchange of intellectual ideas and concerns shared by Renaissance humanists and artists.

Stephen Norris
R1,368 Discovery Miles 13 680 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

The lubok-a broadside or poster-played an important role in Russia's cultural history. Evolving as a medium for communication with a largely illiterate population, the popular prints were adapted to express political propaganda. Stephen Norris examines the use of such prints to stir patriotic fervor during times of war, from Napoleon's failed attempt at conquering Russia to Hitler's invasion. Norris shows how visual images of patriotism and expressions of the Russian spirit changed over time, yet remained similar. The lubok produced during Russia's modern wars consistently featured the same key elements: the Russian peasant, the Cossack, and a representation of "the Russian spirit." When Russia was victorious, occasionally the tsar figured into the imagery; but by the beginning of the twentieth century, ethnic identity had replaced dynastic representations of Russian nationhood. After the Revolutions of 1917, Bolshevik and Soviet leaders appropriated the traditional elements of the wartime lubok to promote their vision of the new socialist state. The political power of lubok imagery did not end with the Bolsheviks' adaptations. During World War II, political posters similar to those of the tsarist era reemerged to express and to reinforce Russia's culture of patriotism and strength. Amply illustrated, A War of Images is the first comprehensive study of how popular prints helped to construct national identity in Russia over a period of more than a century. Readers interested in Russian art, history, and culture will find its insights intriguing.

R1,292 Discovery Miles 12 920 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

G. B. Piranesi is one of the most inventive artists of the eighteenth century. The Carceri, or Prisons, are a set of etchings believed by many to be Piranesi's most original work. The extraordinary evocative power of the Carceri has fascinated many writers. Some have interpreted the Carceri as dreams, as nightmares, as disturbing allegories of human life. In this book, mostly through an analysis of the Latin quotations contained in the etchings, it is argued that Piranesi grants a metaphorical meaning to the Carceri in order to imprison those he saw as obstructing the Arts and threatening his own freedom. Italian text. Silvia Gavuzzo-Stewart graduated from the University of Rome La Sapienza. She has taught Italian language and literature at the Universities of London and Reading. In Reading she was in charge of teaching history of art in the Department of Italian Studies. She is now an Honorary Fellow of Reading University.

"Timon of Athens" is a modern illustrated adaptation of Shakespeare's seldom performed and probably incomplete play. The title character of which becomes misanthropic when the community fails to appreciate his generosity. Wyndam Lewis's original cubo-futurist designs form the basis for the style that came to be known as Vorticism. Designed and printed by Charles D. Jones on Johannot paper by d'Arches. It is 13 in by 9 1/2 in. and has printed end sheets of blue Bugra Hahnemuhle paper. It was printed by hand from polymer plates with 6 color plates and over 30 black and white plates from original designs by Wyndham Lewis created circa. 1912 for use in a proposed edition of Timon that ultimately was produced as a portfolio of plates without the text by the Cube Press in 1912. Working with Omar Pound, an expert on Lewis and controller of rights to his estate, and using my own understanding of Lewis' work, I have attempted to create the work that he would have done. It is bound on boards with a clamshell box covered with Italian Linen book cloth.
