Download or read book Afterlives written by Darsie Alexander and published by . This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A strikingly original exploration of the profound impact of World War II on how we understand the art that survived it By the end of World War II an estimated one million artworks and 2.5 million books had been seized from their owners by Nazi forces; many were destroyed. The artworks and cultural artifacts that survived have traumatic, layered histories. This book traces the biographies of these objects--including paintings, sculpture, and Judaica--their rescue in the aftermath of the war, and their afterlives in museums and private collections and in our cultural understanding. In examining how this history affects the way we view these works, scholars discuss the moral and aesthetic implications of maintaining the association between the works and their place within the brutality of the Holocaust--or, conversely, the implications of ignoring this history. Afterlives offers a thought-provoking investigation of the unique ability of art and artifacts to bear witness to historical events. With rarely seen archival photographs and with contributions by the contemporary artists Maria Eichhorn, Hadar Gad, Dor Guez, and Lisa Oppenheim, this catalogue illuminates the study of a difficult and still-urgent subject, with many parallels to today's crises of art in war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bible Gallery: Illustratd by Gustave Dore, With Memoir of Dore and Descriptive Letter-Press The sad truth set forth in the preceding page is here illustrated in the most striking way. Alienation from God is always followed 'by mutual estrangement. According to the record given in Genesis, when the two brothers, Cain and Abel, appeared before the Lord for worship, the latter was accepted, the former one coming as a sinner with a bloody sacrifice, which pointed to the great truth of expiation, the other with an u-nbloody offering, which contained no suggestion of unworthiness or the need of pardon. Cain became angry at his ill-a success, and even the gracious expostulation of his Maker made no impression upon his mind. On the contrary, he went from bad to worse. Envy led to hatred, and hatred to obduracy before God, and the issue was the shedding of a brother's blood. Cain rose up against Abel his brother and slew him. We are ndt left in doubt as to the origin of this fratricide. The Apostle John in his First Epistle (iii. 12) says: Cain Was of the wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Dor Gallery of Bible Illustrations The Original Classic Edition written by Gustave Dore and published by Tebbo. This book was released on 2011-12-19 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dore's 'Bible Illustrations' is a very beautiful and nostalgic trip into Victorian book illustration. I remember these images from a multi- volume 'Bible for Children' that I had as a child. I was parted from those books, but always remembered the images, and what a lasting effect they had on my spirituality, and my internal image of God. I was so happy to be able to buy the Dore 'Bible Illustrations'. I am an artist with a special interest in Victorian imagery, and will treasure this volume. I think any person interested in Victorian art, and Christian iconography will enjoy this book. The Dore Bible Illustrations are magnificent. One looks at them and marvels at their intricasy and sensitivity. Everyone who sees this book asks how to obtain a copy. It is a brilliant and bright look backwards, like a trip to Sunday school. Special care has been taken to bind the book. I highly recommend this book for every person who believes in Christ and I know this is wonderful to read and ponder before bedtime. THE DORE BIBLE ILLUSTRATIONS is the most highly praised and famous series of pencil drawings (turned into fine woodcuts by artisan engravers) crafted by the celebrated French illustrator, Paul Gustave Dor (1833-1883). These illustrations are inspired and memorable containing depictions of popular scenes and personalities as idealized conceptions, poetic and fanciful, from both the Jewish and Christian, biblical traditions. Dor 's talent is mystically potent with his dramatic, chariscura renderings of moody heavens and skies; panoramic vistas and landscapes; and grand buildings and interiors, all to frame the engaging, spiritual dramas of salvation history. A moving, gallery stroll for young and old alike.
