Scarifications (English) Upload time:Jul 26, 2010, by:mulhem

Dominique Mulhem develops a sequence of amazing concepts, sequence, analysis, actualization, continuation, reinterpretation, these words are not completely false and then they are not completely correct ,the most appropriate one should be reflection. Reflection, thought process which allows to explore but also Reflection or rather refraction which facilitates the propagation of Art history. Mulhem subjects the work of art to an infinite spectrum of spatial and time changes. In the Eighties, through the use of holograms his Portraits of Artists set painters and sculptors into a three dimensional space between past and future. In the Nineties, his imaginary museum was quoted by Pierre Restany: “Dreamy creatures in front of a painting ! in front of! I should say “In” since my eye is unable to sort things out, to void this simultaneous vision and discriminate between its two elements”. In the years 2000, Les Zones invited us to travel into Guillaume Apollinaire's poem of words and sentences. Each decade is an occasion for Mulhem to reinvent his understanding of the world. With Scarifications we get a glance at aspects of our society in relation with mass produced or standardized objects. The works shown in Scarifications enhance our secret desire to transform/maim ourselves and see beyond the paintings and beyond the representations of social markings whether ethnic, tribal or post modern, these cuts on the canvas skin of paintings belong to the world of art because they open up a new space, an airhole which allows us breathe again. We can see that the driving force behind all of Mulhem's paintings is the principle of simultaneous vision . Valerie Salva de Villanueva

Cellini, Benvenuto - The Autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini (English) Upload time:Nov 3, 2007, by:Matt

Among the vast number of men who have thought fit to write down the history of their own lives, three or four have achieved masterpieces which stand out preeminently: Saint Augustine in his “Confessions,” Samuel Pepys in his “Diary,” Rousseau in his “Confessions.” It is among these extraordinary documents, and unsurpassed by any of them, that the autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini takes its place.

Tarbell, Frank Bigelow - A History Of Greek Art (English) Upload time:Nov 3, 2007, by:Matt

The art of any artistically gifted people may be studied with various purposes and in various ways. One man, being himself an artist, may seek inspiration or guidance for his own practice; another, being a student of the history of civilization, may strive to comprehend the products of art as one manifestation of a people's spiritual life; another may be interested chiefly in tracing the development of artistic processes, forms, and subjects; and so on.

Symonds, John Addington - The Life of Michelangelo Buonarroti (English) Upload time:Nov 3, 2007, by:Matt

The Buonarroti Simoni, to whom Michelangelo belonged, were a Florentine family of ancient burgher nobility. Their arms appear to have been originally "azure two bends or." To this coat was added "a label of four points gules inclosing three fleur-de-lys or." That augmentation, adopted from the shield of Charles of Anjou, occurs upon the scutcheons of many Guelf houses and cities.

Reynolds, Sir Joshua - Seven Discourses on Art (English) Upload time:Nov 3, 2007, by:Matt

It is a happy memory that associates the foundation of our Royal Academy with the delivery of these inaugural discourses by Sir Joshua Reynolds, on the opening of the schools, and at the first annual meetings for the distribution of its prizes. They laid down principles of art from the point of view of a man of genius who had made his power felt, and with the clear good sense which is the foundation of all work that looks upward and may hope to live.

Der erste, welcher die Malerei und Poesie miteinander verglich, war ein Mann von feinem GefUehle, der von beiden Kuensten eine Aehnliche Wirkung auf sich verspuerte. Beide, empfand er, stellen uns abwesende Dinge als gegenwaertig, den Schein als Wirklichkeit vor; beide taeuschen, und beider Taeuschung gefaellt.

Kandinsky, Wassily - Concerning the Spiritual in Art (English) Upload time:Nov 3, 2007, by:Matt

Every work of art is the child of its age and, in many cases, the mother of our emotions. It follows that each period of culture produces an art of its own which can never be repeated. Efforts to revive the art-principles of the past will at best produce an art that is still-born. It is impossible for us to live and feel, as did the ancient Greeks. In the same way those who strive to follow the Greek methods in sculpture achieve only a similarity of form, the work remaining soulless for all time

Huneker, James - Promenades of an Impressionist (English) Upload time:Nov 3, 2007, by:Matt

After prolonged study of the art shown at the Paris Autumn Salon you ask yourself: This whirlpool of jostling ambitions, crazy colours, still crazier drawing and composition--whither does it tend? Is there any strain of tendency, any central current to be detected? Is it young genius in the raw, awaiting the sunshine of success to ripen its somewhat terrifying gifts? Or is the exhibition a huge, mystifying blague?

Puffer, Ethel Dench - The Psychology of Beauty (English) Upload time:Nov 3, 2007, by:Matt

The human being who thrills to the experience of beauty in nature and in art does not forever rest with that experience unquestioned. The day comes when he yearns to pierce the secret of his emotion, to discover what it is, and why, that has so stung him--to defend and to justify his transport to himself and to others. He seeks a reason for the faith that is in him.

Die erste Auflage dieses Werkes erschien in fünf Bänden in den Jahren 1905-1912. Ich beginne die zweite mit dem Ausdruck des Dankes an alle, die mich bei der Ausführung der ersten unterstützt haben. Ihre Zahl ist so groß, daß ich sie nicht einzeln nennen kann. An der Spitze steht die Dankespflicht gegen Seine Majestät den Deutschen Kaiser, der auf Antrag des Tages für Denkmalpflege durch Allerhöchsten Erlaß vom 27.

Pater, Waler Horatio - The Renaissance: Studies in Art and Poetry (English) Upload time:Nov 3, 2007, by:Matt

Many attempts have been made by writers on art and poetry to define beauty in the abstract, to express it in the most general terms, to find some universal formula for it. The value of these attempts has most often been in the suggestive and penetrating things said by the way. Such discussions help us very little to enjoy what has been well done in art or poetry, to discriminate between what is more and what is less excellent in them...

Vasari, Giorgio - The Lives of the Painters, Sculptors & Architects, Vol. 1 (English) Upload time:Oct 18, 2007, by:Matt

I am aware that it is commonly held as a fact by most writers that sculpture, as well as painting, was naturally discovered originally by the people of Egypt, and also that there are others who attribute to the Chaldeans the first rough carvings of statues and the first reliefs. In like manner there are those who credit the Greeks with the invention of the brush and of colouring...
