    At the turn of the century, Cezanne began to be taken more and more seriously by the avant-garde: Matisse, Picasso, Braque, Vlaminck, Derain, and others, among them young Russian painters whose new art owed much to the master from Provence.

    Год издания: 2015

    Язык: Русский

    As cryptic as they are compelling, the masterpieces of Hieronymus Bosch remain some of the most enduring enigmas of the art world. Their intricate, allegorical, and often startling content has captivated not only art historians, but also fashion designers, rock stars, writers, and punk rockers, as well as countless modern and contemporary artist successors. Although rooted in the Old Netherlandish tradition, Bosch developed a highly subjective, richly suggestive style to render both the celestial bliss of heaven and the grotesque tortures of hell, most famously and meticulously excecuted in "The Garden of Earthly Delights". Here, as in…

    Язык: Английский

    Peggy Guggenheim -- millionairess, legendary lover, sadomasochist, appalling parent, selective miser -- was one of the greatest and most notorious art patrons of the twentieth century. After her father, Benjamin Guggenheim, went down with the Titanic, the young heiress came into a small fortune and left for Europe. She married the writer Laurence Vail and joined the American expatriate bohemian set. Though her many lovers included such lions of art and literature as Samuel Beckett, Max Ernst (whom she later married), Yves Tanguy, and Roland Penrose, real love always seemed to elude her. In the late 1930s, Peggy set up one of the first…

  • Bruegel: The Complete Paintings Rainer Hagen
    ISBN: 978-3822859919
    Год издания: 2007
    Издательство: Taschen

    At a time when artists were still primarily occupied with religious or mythological subject matter, the great Flemish painter Pieter Bruegel (c. 1525-1569) turned his eye on the everyday. Most of Bruegel's 45 surviving works, which are all reproduced in this book, record the facts of 16th century life in rural or small town communities. In this title in the Basic Art Series, Rose-Marie and Rainer Hagen outline the artist's account of his society and times, and the relevance that account has for us today.

  • CARAVAGGIO L’opera pittorica completa Alessandro Guasti
    ISBN: 978-8870829181
    Год издания: 2004
    Издательство: Idea Libri

    Nel 1570 nasce Michelangelo Merisi, l'artista che passerà alla storia col nome di Caravaggio. Il suo talento e la sua genialità si mescolarono alla sua personalità fino a forgiarne epiteti quali "artista maledetto". Certamente la sua condotta di vita non fu delle più limpide, tra risse furibonde, processi e condanne culminate in un'accusa di omicidio a seguito di una furibonda lite. Ma tanto la sua morale puntava al basso quanto la sua arte raggiungeva livelli sublimi, il realismo delle sue opere, in totale rottura con le convenzioni del suo tempo, il gioco costante di rimandi tra luci ed ombre e di contrasti ne fecero una delle personalità…

  • Hiroshige: One Hundred Famous Views of Edo Melanie Trede
    ISBN: 978-3-8365-5659-0
    Год издания: 2015
    Издательство: Taschen
    Язык: Английский

    Utagawa Hiroshige was one of the last great artists in the ukiyo-e tradition. Literally meaning “pictures of the floating world,” ukiyo-e was a particular genre of art that flourished between the 17th and 19th centuries and came to characterize the Western world's visual idea of Japan. In many ways images of hedonism, ukiyo-e scenes often represented the bright lights and attractions of Edo (modern-day Tokyo): beautiful women, actors and wrestlers, city life, and spectacular landscapes. Though he captured a variety of subjects, Hiroshige was most famous for landscapes, with a final masterpiece series known as “One Hundred Famous Views of…

    Издательство: New York Review of Books
    Язык: Английский

    In this delightful memoir, Jean Renoir, the director of such masterpieces of the cinema as Grand Illusion and The Rules of the Game, tells the life story of his father, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, the great Impressionist painter. Recounting Pierre-Auguste's extraordinary career, beginning as a painter of fans and porcelain, recording the rules of thumb by which he worked, and capturing his unpretentious and wonderfully engaging talk and personality, Jean Renoir's book is both a wonderful double portrait of father and son and, in the words of the distinguished art historian John Golding, it "remains the best account of Renoir, and, furthermore,…
