The Metropolitan Museum Of Art: Art: 365
Days of Masterpieces 2026 Day-to-Day Ca

Art: 365 Days of Masterpieces 2026 Day-to-Day Calendar

Art as worldmaking is both a tribute to the distinguished art historian Alex Potts and a searching response to his important work on realism as a critical aesthetic, most notably the 2013 book Experiments in modern realism. The collection comprises twenty original essays by leading scholars in the field, written from a variety of theoretical and critical perspectives. They test Potts's recasting of realism, developed primarily through interpretations of European and American postwar art, against art produced in different media, places and periods, from eighth-century Chinese gardens to twenty-first-century video work by the Russian collective Radek Community. Individual chapters offer novel readings of classic instances of pictorial realism by Menzel and Eakins, and reconsider the question of nineteenth-century realism's historical antecedents. Overall, though, the volume has a contemporary orientation, in that it is concerned with the questions that sculpture, photography and non-traditional media pose for realism as an aesthetic norm. Featuring contributions from T. J. Clark, Thomas Crow, Briony Fer, Tamar Garb, Lisa Tickner and Anne M. Wagner, along with other established and emerging scholars, Art as worldmaking is a bold contribution to a central question in art theory and history. It is compelling reading for anyone concerned with art's truth value, or more broadly with conceptual problems of representation and the intersections of art and politics.

Critical Essays on Realism and Naturalism

Art as Worldmaking

A major reevaluation of a towering figure in twentieth-century art and the relationship of his sculpture to the crisis of nationalism in modern Europe &nbsp; Figures of Crisis examines the neglected decade of artwork that separates the surrealist experiments of Swiss artist Alberto Giacometti (1901–1966) from his iconic postwar sculptures, revealing the connection between a famous artistic crisis in modern art and the crisis of national identity in modern Europe. In 1935, Giacometti abruptly abandoned his early abstract objects and devoted himself to sculpting portrait busts and minuscule figurines, many no larger than a fingernail. Joanna Fiduccia reimagines this fragmentary and inconspicuous body of work as the pivotal phase in his career, which registered the erosion of interwar democratic values and the searching questions this period posed for the future of modern sculpture. &nbsp; Challenging previous explanations of Giacometti’s return to figuration, Fiduccia argues that his figures gave form to the experience of social breakdown during the rise of fascism through their turbulent surfaces, unsettling generality, dramatic reduction of scale, and compulsive repetition. This fresh account, told through the philosophical, political, and aesthetic thought of Giacometti’s time, shows how ideologies of nationalism generated the problems of selfhood at the heart of modernism.

An exploration of the rich creative influence of Italian Renaissance art on the designs of contemporary Italian fashion houses &nbsp; Successful Italian fashion houses such as Armani, Dolce &amp; Gabbana, and Versace are among the most high-profile and cutting-edge on the global fashion scene. Many of the innovative designs created by these and other major Italian houses draw on imagery from Italy’s rich cultural and artistic past. Weaving together insightful texts and vivid illustrations, this book explores the creative, cultural, and social dialogues between contemporary Italian fashion houses and the enduring legacy of Renaissance Italy. &nbsp; During the Renaissance, the Italian peninsula was dominated by powerful aristocratic families or “houses,” such as the Medici in Florence and the Sforza in Milan, whose members used fashion and art to communicate their power. Through essays by scholars and fashion industry professionals, including Luca Missoni of the House of Missoni and Stefania Ricci, director of the Ferragamo Museum, this book provides an insider look at the creative connections between Italian Renaissance “houses” and contemporary Italian fashion houses, and the design innovations that celebrate the vital legacy of Italian Renaissance imagery. Art directed by Luca Stoppini, former Vogue Italia creative director, this book features an inventive, oversize design reminiscent of Vogue magazine’s storied annual “September Issue,” conveying a gripping story about contemporary Italian fashion and enlivened with runway and art images, as well as original photography inspired by nostalgic glossy editorials. &nbsp; Distributed for the Cleveland Museum of Art &nbsp; Exhibition Schedule: &nbsp; Cleveland Museum of Art (November 9, 2025–February 1, 2026)
