Eastlake E: The History of Our Lord as
Exemplified in Works of Art: With That

The History of Our Lord as Exemplified in Works of Art: With That of His Types; St. John the Baptist; and Other Persons of the Old and New Testament

Phaidon Compacts

Great Women Artists

 

 Five centuries of fascinating female creativity presented in more than 400 compelling artworks and one comprehensive volume, now in a new compact edition.
 

 

 The most extensive fully illustrated book of women artists ever published, Great Women Artists reflects an era where art made by women is more prominent than ever. In museums, galleries, and the art market, previously overlooked female artists, past and present, are now gaining recognition and value.
 

 

 Featuring more than 400 artists from more than 50 countries and spanning 500 years of creativity, each artist is represented here by a key artwork and short text. This essential volume reveals a parallel yet equally engaging history of art for an age that champions a greater diversity of voices.

Great Women Artists

<div>The Artist’s Garden offers an intriguing study into 20 gardens that have inspired and been home to some of the greatest painters from history. This&nbsp;sumptuously illustrated and fascinating book delves into the&nbsp;stories behind the gardens which inspired some of the most beautiful and important works of art. These gardens not only supplied the inspiration for creative works but also illuminate the&nbsp;professional motivation and private life of the artists themselves – from Cezanne’s house in the south of France to Childe Hassam at Celia Thaxter’s garden off the coast off Maine. Flowers and gardens have often been the first choice for artists looking for a subject. A garden close to the artist’s studio is not only convenient for daily material and ideas, but also has the advantage of changing through the seasons and over time. Claude Monet’s Giverny was the catalyst for hundreds of great paintings (by Monet and other artists), each one different from the one before. Sometimes a whole village becomes the focus for a colony of artists as at Gerberoy in Picardy and Skagen on the northernmost tip of Denmark. This book is about the real homes and gardens that inspired these great artists – gardens that can still be visited today. The relationship between artist and garden is a complex one. A few artists, including Pierre Bonnard and his neighbour Monet were keen gardeners, as much in love with their plants as their work, while for others like Sorolla in Madrid, his courtyard home was both a sanctuary and a source of ideas. This book is as unmissable for art lovers as it is for anyone who knows the joy of time spent in gardens, offering an intriguing insight into the lives of these great painters and the gardens which inspired them to their creative heights. Now available in paperback.&nbsp;</div>

The secret spaces that inspired great art

The Artist's Garden

Ein wunderbar berührendes Buch über Trauer, Verlust und die heilende Kraft der Kunst
 Als Patrick Bringleys geliebter älterer Bruder völlig unerwartet mit nur 26 Jahren stirbt, überwältigt ihn die Trauer so sehr, dass er seinen Job als Journalist beim&nbsp;
 New Yorker
 kündigt und versucht, als Museumswächter im 
 Metropolitan Museum of Art
 sein altes Leben hinter sich zu lassen. In seinem international gefeierten Bestseller erzählt Bringley einfühlsam, wie er schließlich in der Schönheit der Kunst Trost fand und wie er durch die Begegnungen im Museum mit den vielen Menschen&nbsp;an die Schönheit des Lebens erinnert wird.
 
 Ein einfühlsam geschriebenes und inspirierendes Buch.
 
 »Ein wunderbares Buch.«
 
 NEUE ZÜRCHER ZEITUNG
 
 »Dieses fesselnde Memoir ist auch ein wunderschön&nbsp;geschriebenes Handbuch, wie man die Kunst&nbsp;und das Leben schätzen kann.«

Eine Geschichte über Kunst, Leben und Verlust | Eine wundervoll inspirierende Geschichte über die Kunst, die Liebe und das Leben

All die Schönheit dieser Welt

<div>Unpack the powerful visual symbols artists have used throughout history.&nbsp; &nbsp; From a single flower to a carefully placed skull, works of art across history are filled with symbols that carry powerful meanings. The Symbols of Art reveals how artists use these symbols to communicate ideas without relying on words.&nbsp; &nbsp; Why is there a lily in that religious painting? Why does a still life include an hourglass, a mirror, or a piece of fruit? In some cases, these symbols would have been immediately understood by contemporary viewers but now need decoding for a modern audience. In other instances, symbolism is more deliberately elusive, inviting viewers to look closer and think deeper.&nbsp; &nbsp; This richly illustrated visual reference includes:&nbsp;<ul><li>Over 100 key symbols drawn from art history&nbsp;</li><li>Symbols from the natural world, the manmade world, the supernatural, and colors and shapes&nbsp;</li><li>Famous artworks used as case studies to show symbolism in context&nbsp;</li><li>How meanings change across cultures, movements, and centuries&nbsp;</li><li>An easy-to-navigate, fully indexed structure designed for quick consultation as well as browsing&nbsp;</li></ul> Bringing together examples from across periods, cultures, and artistic movements, art historian Susie Hodge explains how symbolic meanings can shift depending on time, place, and intention, revealing layers of interpretation that radically deepen our understanding of artworks.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Clearly organized and expertly written, The Symbols of Art is both an authoritative reference and an inviting guide for curious readers.&nbsp; &nbsp; Whether you’re visiting a gallery, studying art history, or simply want to see artworks with fresh eyes, this book gives you the tools to decode visual meaning and experience art more deeply.&nbsp;</div>

Decoding the Hidden Meanings of Art

The Symbols of Art

A new understanding of Marcel Duchamp and his significance as an artist through an investigation of his non-art activities—archiving, art-dealing, and, most persistently, curating. This groundbreaking and richly illustrated book tells a new story of the twentieth century's most influential artist, recounted not so much through his artwork as through his “non-art” work. Marcel Duchamp is largely understood in critical and popular discourse in terms of the objects he produced, whether readymade or meticulously fabricated. Elena Filipovic asks us instead to understand Duchamp's art through activities not normally seen as artistic—from exhibition making and art dealing to administrating and publicizing. These were no occasional pursuits; Filipovic argues that for Duchamp, these fugitive tasks were a veritable lifework. Drawing on many rarely seen images, Filipovic traces a variety of practices and projects undertaken by Duchamp from 1913 to 1969, from his invention of the readymade to the release of his last, posthumous work. She examines Duchamp's note writing, archiving, and quasi-photographic activities, which resulted in the Box of 1914 and the Green Box; his art dealing, marketing, and curating that culminated in experimental exhibitions for the Surrealists and his miniature museum, The Boîte-en-valise; and his administrative efforts and clandestine maneuvering in order to posthumously embed his Étant donnés into a museum. Demonstrating how those activities reflect the artist's questioning of reproduction and originality, as well as photography and the exhibition, Filipovic proposes that Duchamp's “non-art” labor, and in particular his curatorial strategies, more than merely accompanied his more famous artworks; in a certain sense, they made them. Through Duchamp's elusive but vital activities he revised the idea of what a modern artist could be. With this fascinating book, Filipovic in turn revises the very idea of Duchamp.

The Apparently Marginal Activities of Marcel Duchamp

Virtuelle Lebenswelten

Virtual reality is a technique of interfacing which connects diverse bodies, objects and spaces, thereby mediating between different art forms and modes of experience.&nbsp;This feature also calls for a methodological interfacing of different disciplinary perspectives. The contributors to this volume examine how VR is employed in contemporary art with regard to its technical potential, its aesthetic qualities, and the imaginations it evokes. They highlight the use of VR as a ¿world within a world,¿ ranging from encapsulated artificial environments to transitions into familiar lifeworlds. By bringing together theoretical perspectives from art history, media and game studies, this volume provides crucial analysis of selected artworks and expands the critical engagement with a contemporary art form and media practice.

Interfacing Art, Games and Everyday Life

Virtual Reality Exhibited

This publication compares the two artists Tracey Emin and Richie Culver, both of whom deal with themes such as emotionality, authenticity, and gender images. The starting points are self-staging and public responses to Emin's and Culver's artistic work. How do culturally encoded emotions, autobiographical narratives, and gender images intertwine in the two oeuvres? Does Culver's work reveal the appropriation of a previously female-encoded emotionality, or a shift towards a gender-neutral artistic identity? A comparative reading of their work highlights specific modes of self-presentation and affective addressing - in the field of tension between subjectivity, pop culture, and art-historical inscription.<ul> <li>First academic monograph on Richie Culver</li> <li>Shows the social relevance of the issues addressed, as well as the construction of emotions, gender and identity in the context of cultural and media upheaval</li> <li>Innovative gender-reflective perspective on artistic practice</li></ul>

Sticky Emotions

Oyster

Gegen Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts setzten Frauen die Kamera, damals noch ein neuer technischer Apparat, ein, um ein unabhängiges Leben als professionelle Fotografinnen zu führen. In nördlichen Ländern hatten Fotografinnen eine besonders starke Position, da sich mit Hilfe der Fotografie persönliche, wirtschaftliche und politische Unabhängigkeit erzielen ließ. Viele von ihnen stellten nur weibliche Assistenten an und blieben unverheiratet; einige lebten in lebenslangen Beziehungen mit Frauen. Diese Pionierinnen gehörten einer Generation an, die erstmals die Macht hatte, ihre eigene visuelle Darstellung, sowie die anderer Frauen, zu definieren. Durch ein breites Spektrum an Fallstudien bietet diese Publikation eine Gegengeschichte zu bestehenden Historien von Fotografie, und zeigt erstmals das befreiende Potenzial des Mediums für Frauen auf.<ul> <li>Gegennarrative von weiblicher Unabhängigkeit in der Fotografiegeschichte</li> <li>Beleuchtet Leben und Werk bislang unbekannter nordischer Fotografinnen</li><li>Mit Beiträgen führender Expert*innen für Fotografie aus Dänemark, Norwegen, Schweden, Finnland und Island</li></ul>

Striving for Independence

Die Werke der österreichischen Malerin Tina Blau (1845-1916) waren prägend für die Landschaftsmalerei des 19. Jahrhunderts. Die Publikation präsentiert anhand von über 40 Werken ihr künstlerisches Schaffen zwischen 1862 und 1916. Ihre Arbeiten, die in Wien, München sowie während zahlreicher Reisen nach Italien, Frankreich und in die Niederlande entstanden sind, zeichnen sich durch eine individuelle Bildsprache aus. Erste Bilder malte sie bereits en plein air, direkt vor dem Motiv, und sie vermochte in der Folge konsequent eine künstlerische Ausdrucksform zu entwickeln, die den Aufbruch in die Moderne verkörperte. Der Katalog beleuchtet ihre Rolle als Pionierin der österreichischen Landschaftsmalerei und würdigt ihren Einfluss auf die Moderne - sowohl als Künstlerin als auch als Wegbereiterin für Frauen in der Kunstwelt.

Art: The Whole Story

Love, War, and the Birth of Impressionism

Paris in Ruins

DKV-Kunstführer

Nur acht Kilometer nordwestlich von Naumburg erhebt sich hoch über dem Winzerstädtchen Freyburg der seit etwa 900 Jahren besiedelte Schlossberg. Der Blick vom Bergfried der mächtigen Bergspornburg reicht weit in die alte Kulturlandschaft des Unstruttales hinein und hinüber zum nahe gelegenen Naumburg. Die Neuenburg, eine Gründung Ludwigs des Springers, und die Stadt Freyburg sind durch ihr reizvolles Miteinander in dieser Landschaft und durch eine gemeinsame lange und wechselvolle Geschichte eng verbunden. Der Name 'Neue Burg' ist vermutlich im Zusammenhang mit dem älteren Pfalzgrafenhof in Zscheiplitz (nördlich Freyburgs) oder der nahezu unbekannten und unerforschten Burg Putelendorf (Bottendorf ) bei Artern zu sehen.
