Описание: This panoramic study of musical modernism synthesizes cultural, biographical, and analytic perspectives to provide a group portrait of the leading figures in post-war British art music. Philip Rupprecht explores the music of the Manchester Group and other composers in works spanning sixties theatricality through to seventies pop, electronic and post-minimalist music.
Written by one of the foremost scholars of African art and featuring 129 color images, Postcolonial Modernism chronicles the emergence of artistic modernism in Nigeria in the heady years surrounding political independence in 1960, before the outbreak of civil war in 1967. Chika Okeke-Agulu traces the artistic, intellectual, and critical networks in several Nigerian cities. Zaria is particularly important, because it was there, at the Nigerian College of Arts, Science and Technology, that a group of students formed the Art Society and inaugurated postcolonial modernism in Nigeria. As Okeke-Agulu explains, their works show both a deep connection with local artistic traditions and the stylistic sophistication that we have come to associate with twentieth-century modernist practices. He explores how these young Nigerian artists were inspired by the rhetoric and ideologies of decolonization and nationalism in the early- and mid-twentieth century and, later, by advocates of negritude and pan-Africanism. They translated the experiences of decolonization into a distinctive "postcolonial modernism" that has continued to inform the work of major Nigerian artists.
Robert Brain traces the origins of artistic modernism to specific technologies of perception developed in late-nineteenth-century laboratories. Brain argues that the thriving fin-de-siecle field of "physiological aesthetics," which sought physiological explanations for the capacity to appreciate beauty and art, changed the way poets, artists, and musicians worked and brought a dramatic transformation to the idea of art itself.

Описание: Enchanted Ground is about the challenge to modernist criticism by Surrealist writers – mainly Andre Breton but also Louis Aragon, Pierre Mabille, Rene Magritte, Charles Estienne, Rene Huyghe and others – who viewed the same artists in terms of magic, occultism, precognition, alchemy and esotericism generally. It introduces the history of the ways in which those artists who came after Impressionism – Paul Cezanne, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Georges Seurat, Paul Gauguin, Vincent van Gogh – became canonical in the 20th century through the broad approaches we now call modernist or formalist (by critics and curators such as Alfred H. Barr, Roger Fry, Robert Goldwater, Clement Greenberg, John Rewald and Robert L. Herbert), and then unpacks chapter-by-chapter, for the first time in a single volume, the Surrealist positions on the same artists. To this end, it contributes to new strains of scholarship on Surrealism that exceed the usual bounds of the 1920s and 1930s and that examine the fascination within the movement with magic.

Описание:
Scandinavia is a region associated with modernity: modern design, modern living and a modern welfare state. This new history of modernism in Scandinavia offers a picture of the complex reality that lies behind the label: a modernism made up of many different figures, impulses and visions. It places the individuals who have achieved international fame, such as Edvard Munch and Alvar Aalto in a wider context, and through a series of case studies, provides a rich analysis of the art, architecture and design history of the Nordic region, and of modernism as a concept and mode of practice.
Modernism in Scandinavia addresses the decades between 1890 and 1970 and presents an intertwined history of modernism across the region. Charlotte Ashby gives a rationale for her focus on those countries which share an interrelated history and colonial past, but also stresses influences from outside the region, such as the English Arts and Crafts movement and the impact of emergent American modernism. Her richly illustrated account guides the reader through key historical periods and cultural movements, with case studies illuminating key art works, buildings, designed products and exhibitions.
Описание: Forschungsinitiativen zum Thema Avantgarde und Moderne nehmen in der europ ischen Forschungslandschaft weiterhin zu. Die experimentellen Literaturen und die K nste in Europa zwischen ca. 1850 und 1950 und ihre Nachwirkungen sind als Lehr- und Forschungsbereiche an den europ ischen Forschungsinstitutionen und in den Lehrpl nen heutzutage nicht mehr wegzudenken. Avantgarde und Moderne haben sich in den letzten Jahrzehnten zu unterschiedlichen, aber mehrfach miteinander verzahnten Forschungsgebieten entwickelt. Innerhalb der franz sischen und deutschen akademischen Welt bleibt der Sammelbegriff "modernism" weniger gel ufig - "die (klassische) Moderne" und "modernit " fungieren hier als nahe liegende quivalente zu demjenigen, was im internationalen Kontext als eine zeitliche und r umliche Ko-Okkurenz k nstlerischer Ausdrucksformen und sthetischer Theorien namhaft gemacht werden kann, die ungef hr zwischen 1850 und 1950 angesiedelt werden kann. Auf hnliche Weise entfaltet die Bezeichnung "Avantgarde" eine Reihe h ufig widerspr chlicher Konnotationen. F r manche bedeutet die Avantgarde den radikalsten experimentellen Bruch der K nste und Literaturen mit den Darstellungs- und Erz hlkonventionen des 19. Jahrhundert: Im fr hen zwanzigsten Jahrhundert zeugen davon Avantgardebewegungen wie Futurismus, Expressionismus, Dada und Surrealismus, d.h. Str mungen, die als die "heroische" Phase der Avantgarde bezeichnet werden k nnen. F r andere geh rt die Avantgarde zu einer kulturellen und konzeptuellen Ordnung, die sich weitgehend von der 'modernistischen' unterscheidet oder sogar abhebt: Die avantgardistischen Experimente ab den f nfziger Jahren des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts kommen in dieser Hinsicht weitgehend ohne modernistische Begleiterscheinung aus.
Die Buchreihe Studien zur Europ ischen Avantgarde und Moderne m chte der Kompliziertheit der unterschiedlichen europ ischen Forschungstraditionen gerecht werden und strebt danach, die breite linguistische, terminologische und methodologische Vielfalt abzudecken. Anhand einer zweij hrlichen Sammlung von Beitr gen in englischer, franz sischer und deutscher Sprache m chte die Reihe nicht nur die franz sisch-, deutsch- und englischsprachigen, sondern auch die nord-, s d-, zentral- und osteurop ischen Ergebnisse der Avantgarde- und Moderne-Forschung einbeziehen. Die Reihe sammelt die neuesten und ertragreichsten Beitr ge zur Forschung und widmet sich der Erforschung der gesamten europ ischen Avantgarde und Moderne, ihrer Vorl ufer und ihrem Nachklang im Laufe des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts. Die Studien zur Europ ischen Avantgarde und Moderne f rdern die interdisziplin re und intermediale Erforschung experimenteller sthetiken und Poetiken und setzen es sich zum Ziel, das Interesse an den kulturellen Zusammenh ngen und Kontexten der Avantgarde und der Moderne in Europa anzuregen. Beitr ge werden internationalen Experten zur anonymen Begutachtung vorgelegt. Chefredakteure: Sascha Bru (Leuven University) und Peter Nicholls (New York University).

Описание: What is form in modern art? How could a work of art achieve its organic life in a world increasingly dominated by mechanism, by new technology? In this new book, Brandon Taylor proposes that biology and the life sciences themselves supplied many of the analogies and metaphors by which modern artists were guided. For the creative giants of the period - Picasso, Mir , Kandinsky, Strzeminski, Dal , Arp, Motherwell and Pollock, as well as less-known figures such as Taeuber, Erni and Kobro - questions of 'living' form loomed large in studio conversation, in the press, and in the writings of the artists themselves. In a book rich in new research and fresh thinking, a well-known art historian proposes six modalities of organic and vital life that pervade the radical experiments of modern art: the organic, the biomorphic, the ambiguous, the monstrous, the dialectical, and the liquid.

Описание: Why has jewellery and body adornment often been marginalized in studies of modernist art and design? This study explores the relationship between jewellery, modernism and modernity from the ‘jazz age’ to the second world war in order to challenge the view that these portable art forms have only a minor role to play in histories of modernism. From the masterworks of the Parisian jewellery houses to the film and photography of Man Ray, this study seeks to present jewellery in a new light, where issues of representation and display are considered to be as important in the creation of a modern ‘jewellery culture’ as the objects themselves. Drawing on material from museums, archives, contemporary journals, memoirs, literary and theoretical texts, this study shows how the emergence of modern jewellery began to seriously question conventional notions of body adornment.
