Gianlorenzo Bernini (1598-1680), architect, painter, but above all
sculptor, had a career that spanned almost three quarters of a
century. He worked under six different popes and was instrumental
in the ornamentation of Baroque Rome, from the colonnade of St.
Peter to the fountains in piazza Navona and piazza di Spagna, from
the many stunning sculptural groups in the churches and palaces of
Rome to the dozens of 'speaking portraits', which depict cardinals,
popes, kings and intellectuals of his time. The Galleria Borghese,
home of many works by Bernini, including some of his world-famous
groups such as Apollo and Daphne, The Rape of Proserpina and David,
will host a major exhibition on the sculptures of this
extraordinary artist. Exceptional in scope and scholarship, the
catalogue analyses many different aspects of Bernini's output,
focusing on the many innovations he introduced. It also devotes
studies to the critical reception of Bernini and to his
relationships with friends and patrons (a dictionary of these is
included at the end of the book). Accompanies an exhibition in
Rome, Galleria Borghese, from 31 October 2017 to February 2018.
