Описание: Picasso de Chirico Leger Picabia. An unlikely episode in the history of European Modernism is the alliance between the avant-garde and the antique forged by artists of impeccable radical credentials. This book focuses on the reinventions and transformations of antiquity in the work of four culturally and politically diverse artists between 1905 and 1935. In distinctly different ways, classicizing creations such as de Chiricos enigmatic piazzas, Picassos post-Cubist women, Lgers mechanized nudes, and Picabias transparencies reflect what the eyes and minds of these artists found so arresting in the arts of antiquity and how they made

Описание: With images culled from eleven hundred years of history, this comprehensive survey explores the Byzantine empire's vast range of artistic splendors that indelibly informed the art of modern Europe. Renowned scholar Thomas Mathews emphasizes that the Byzantines' interest in humanism and painting the human figure became the essential bridge between classical and renaissance Europe. Starting with a brief history of Byzantium as a basis for understanding Byzantine theology and art, he places the empire's artistic development within a broad cultural and historical context. Featuring more than one hundred color plates of mosaics, metalwork, architecture, frescoes and religious artifacts, as well as maps, diagrams, and a timeline, this definitive work provides a complete yet succinct introduction to the full range of Byzantine art and iconography.

Описание: From the mid-1650s until his death at age sixty-three, Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669) generated a remarkable body of work as he searched for a new, painterly, and expressive style. His later works demonstrate his mastery, skilfulness and exceptional ability to render the effects of light, and they have since defined his image as an artist. Rembrandt gleaned inspiration from his direct study of nature, exalting the humble, the mundane, and even the ugly, particularly in his self-portraits and works based on his everyday surroundings. His intimate pictures of figures from history, often portrayed in austere or introspective attitudes, are created with extraordinary sensitivity. This handsome volume includes superb reproductions of some of Rembrandt's most recognizable paintings, alongside etchings and drawings in various media that demonstrate his mastery of the graphic medium. Through a series of thematic essays, the authors draw on new research to examine Rembrandt's iconographic, stylistic and technical innovations and underscore how his work in one medium influenced his work in others. This captivating book is the first to focus exclusively on the paintings, drawings and prints that Rembrandt produced during the final, most creative phase of his career.

Описание: This book explores the roofed theatre sites of classical antiquity. George Izenour examines 24 Greek, Graeco-Hellenistic, and Roman buildings. He provides architectural drawings of their probable original appearance and discusses how these huge spaces were spanned and what the precise effects might have been on sound, lightingd ventilation. Basing his discusssion on the principles of classical architecure and on his observations and site photogrpahs of ancient theatre ruins, Izenour explores the structure and design of classical roofing systems, seating systems, sight lines to the stage, lighting and acoustics. He also offers a comparison of ancient and modern roofed theatre design. In the eight appendices he addresses subjects that range from the remodeling of Graeco-Hellenistic outdoor theatres to the drop-curtain-movable-painted-scenery controversy in the Roman theatre.
