Название: The Arts and Crafts Garden
Автор: Sarah Rutherford
Издательство: Shire Publications
Год: 2013
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 16 Мб
Язык: английский / English

The Arts and Crafts Movement espoused values of simplicity, craftsmanship and beauty quite counter to Victorian and Edwardian industrialism. Though most famous for its architecture, furniture and ornamental work, between the 1890s and the 1930s the movement also produced gardens all over Britain whose designs, redolent of a lost golden era, had worldwide influence. These designs, by luminaries such as Gertrude Jekyll and Sir Edwin Lutyens, were engaging and romantic combinations of manor-house garden formalism and the naive charms of the cottage garden – but from formally clipped topiary to rugged wild borders, nothing was left to chance. Sarah Rutherford here explores the winding paths and meticulously shaped hedges, the gazebos and gateways, the formal terraces and the billowing border plantings that characterised the Arts and Crafts garden, and directs readers and gardeners to where they can visit and be inspired by these beautiful works of art.

Название: The Vanishing Velazquez: A 19th Century Bookseller's Obsession with a Lost Masterpiece
Автор: Laura Cumming
Издательство: Scribner Book
Год: 2016
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 56 Мб
Язык: английский / English

When John Snare, a nineteenth century provincial bookseller, traveled to a liquidation auction, he found a vivid portrait of King Charles I that defied any explanation. The Charles of the painting was young--too young to be king--and yet also too young to be painted by the Flemish painter to whom the piece was attributed. Snare had found something incredible--but what? His research brought him to Diego Velázquez, whose long-lost portrait of Prince Charles has eluded art experts for generations. Velázquez (1599-1660) was the official painter of the Madrid court, during the time the Spanish Empire teetered on the edge of collapse. When Prince Charles of England--a man wealthy enough to help turn Spain's fortunes--proposed a marriage with a Spanish princess, he allowed just a few hours to sit for his portrait, and Snare believed only Velázquez could have been the artist of choice. But in making his theory public, Snare was ostracized and forced to choose, like Velázquez himself, between art and family.

Название: Maria Izquierdo and Frida Kahlo: Challenging Visions in Modern Mexican Art
Автор: Nancy Deffebach
Издательство: University of Texas Press
Год: 2016
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 27 Мб
Язык: английский / English

Maria Izquierdo (1902-1955) and Frida Kahlo (1907-1954) were the first two Mexican women artists to achieve international recognition. During the height of the Mexican muralist movement, they established successful careers as easel painters and created work that has become an integral part of Mexican modernism. Although the iconic Kahlo is now more famous, the two artists had comparable reputations during their lives. Both were regularly included in major exhibitions of Mexican art, and they were invariably the only women chosen for the most important professional activities and honors. In a deeply informed study that prioritizes critical analysis over biographical interpretation, Nancy Deffebach places Kahlo's and Izquierdo's oeuvres in their cultural context, examining the ways in which the artists participated in the national and artistic discourses of postrevolutionary Mexico.

Формат: EPUB
Размер: 10 Мб

From gift shop designs for the holiday village in north Wales, Portmeirion pottery evolved to a global business, thanks in large part to the design flair of Susan Williams-Ellis. She captured the spirit of the kitchens and dining rooms of the 1960s and ‘70s with bold new shapes and designs that could be both modern and traditional. ‘Botanic Garden’, introduced in 1972, used old flower prints with contemporary shapes and high quality manufacture, and has remained in production for 40 years. In the 21st century the company has moved vigorously forwards with a new generation of designers and a marketplace in over 50 countries.

Япония — загадочная и не всегда понятная для европейцев страна. Географическое положение, особенности государственной политики и древние традиции народа привели к ее изолированности от других стран. В силу этого культура и искусство Японии приобрели ярко выраженные уникальные черты, обладающие особой притягательностью в гравюре и живописи. Живопись Японии принадлежит к числу самых древних и удивительных видов творчества. Она имеет длинную историю, представляющую собой долгий путь соперничества и переплетения исконных японских принципов, адаптаций иностранных идей, смену школ и стилей. Но как бы разнообразны не были средства выражения, школы и техники живописи, есть несколько черт, которые объединяют и отличают японское искусство от любого другого — поиск гармонии между всеми составляющими жизни, а также стремление найти те ярчайшие штрихи, которые наилучшим образом подчеркивают индивидуальность изображаемого объекта, независимо от способа подачи информации, что делает искусство этой страны актуальным всегда и всюду.

Название: Titian and the end of the Venetian Renaissance
Автор: Tom Nichols
Издательство: Reaktion Books
Год: 2013
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 60 Мб
Язык: английский / English

Titian’s works are often seen as embodying the famous tradition of Venetian Renaissance painting. But how ‘Venetian’ was Titian, and can his unique works be taken as truly representative of his adoptive city? This comprehensive new study, covering Titian’s long career and varied output, highlights the tensions between the individualism of his work and the conservative mores of Venice. Titian and the End of the Venetian Renaissance argues that Titian’s works were self-consciously original, freely and intentionally undermining the traditional, more modest approach to painting in Venice – a position that frequently caused disputes with local artists and patrons.
