Download or read book Archive of the World Art and Imagination in Spanish America 1500 1800 Highlights from Lacma s Collection written by Ilona Katzew and published by Delmonico Books. This book was released on 2022-06-14 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Including textiles, paintings and decorative arts, Archive of the Worldoffers a lucid alternative to traditional interpretations of art from the so-called New World Exquisitely illustrated with new photography, this stunning book represents the first comprehensive study of LACMA's notable holdings of Spanish American art. Following the arrival of the Spaniards in the Americas in the 15th century, the region developed complex artistic traditions that drew simultaneously on Indigenous, European, Asian and African art. In 1565 the Spaniards conquered the Philippines, inaugurating a new commercial route that connected Asia, Europe and the Americas. Private homes and civic and ecclesiastic institutions in Spanish America were filled with imported and locally made objects. This confluence of riches signaled the status of the Americas as a major entrepôt--what one contemporaneous author described as "the archive of the world." Many works created in Spanish America were also shipped across the globe, attesting to their wide appeal. Arranged into five thematic sections, the volume features a conversation about LACMA's collection and nearly 100 catalog entries by various scholars, including Pablo F. Amador Marrero, Aaron M. Hyman, Rachel Kaplan, Paula Mues Orts, Jeanette F. Peterson, Elena Phipps, Maya Stanfield-Mazzi and Luis Eduardo Wuffarden, among others. These authoritative texts offer multiple access points to appreciate the material, aesthetic and historical aspects of the works, providing a lasting reference in this increasingly influential area of art history.
Download or read book Behind Closed Doors written by Richard Aste and published by The Monacelli Press, LLC. This book was released on 2013-09-10 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A critical contribution to the burgeoning field of Spanish colonial art, Behind Closed Doors reveals how art and luxury goods together signaled the identity and status of Spanish Americans struggling to claim their place in a fluid New World hierarchy. By the early sixteenth century, the Spanish practice of defining status through conspicuous consumption and domestic display was established in the Americas by Spaniards who had made the transatlantic crossing in search of their fortunes. Within a hundred years, Spanish Americans of all heritages had amassed great wealth and had acquired luxury goods from around the globe. Nevertheless, the Spanish crown denied the region’s new moneyed class the same political and economic opportunities as their European-born counterparts. New World elites responded by asserting their social status through the display of spectacular objects at home as pointed reminders of the empire’s dependence on silver and other New World resources. The private residences of elite Spaniards, Creoles (American-born white Spaniards), mestizos, and indigenous people rivaled churches as principal repositories for the fine and decorative arts. Drawing principally on the Brooklyn Museum’s renowned colonial holdings, among the country’s finest, this book presents magnificent domestic works in a broad New World (Spanish and British) context. In the essays within, the authors lead the reader through the elite Spanish American home, illuminating along the way a dazzling array of both imported and domestic household goods. There, visitors would encounter European-inspired portraiture, religious paintings used for private devotion and also as signifiers of status, and objects that spoke to the owner’s social and racial identity.
Download or read book Spanish Art in Britain and Ireland 1750 1920 written by Enriqueta Harris and published by Tamesis Books. This book was released on 2010 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Golden Age to Goya. This is the first study wholly devoted to reception of Spanish art in Britain and Ireland. Examining the extent and sources of knowledge of Spanish art in the British Isles during an age of increasing contact, particularly in theaftermath of the Peninsular War, it contains contributions by leading scholars, including reprints of three essays by Enriqueta Harris Frankfort, to whose memory this book is dedicated. Focusing on Spanish art from the Golden Age to Goya, these studies chart the growth in understanding and appreciation of the Spanish School, and its punctuation by controversies and continuing distrust of religious images in Protestant Britain, as well as by the successive `discoveries' of individual artists - Murillo, Velázquez, Ribera, Zurbarán, El Greco and Goya. The book publishes important new research on art importation, collecting and dealing, and discusses the increase in access to andscholarship on works of art, including their reproduction through both traditional prints and copies and the newly invented photographic methods. It also considers for the first time the role of women in reflecting taste for thearts of Spain. It is richly illustrated with 17 colour and 54 black and white illustrations.

This book was released on 2017-12-11 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Classified and Descriptive Catalogue of the Art Objects of Spanish Production in the South Kensington Museum: With an Introduction and Notes Spain begins after the downfall Of the Roman Empire, when the Visigothic monarchy was established in the Peninsula, and the country constituted itself under the form of a separate and independent kingdom. It would not be difficult, not withstanding, to mention archaeological Objects belonging to former times which have been found in Spain, but it generally happens that they present the exclusive character Of the industries Of Rome, and, at other times, that of the Phoenicians and other possessors Of the soil, who have acquired more or less influence in the country; the doubt therefore always remains as to whether the Obj ects that are found in the excavations in Spain were impor tations rather than specimens Of her own industry. When the Visigothic kingdom was constituted in Spain at the beginning Of the 5th century, changes occurred, as they did in other countries, which altered completely the internal and external life Of the ancient society of the West. After the first moments Of the struggle, and when the new monarchy began to give encouragement to science and the arts, the Latin element was still always predominant, and to this was soon after added the Oriental element derived from Constantinople, which concentrated in itself the importance of the world, and was able to impose artistic forms which are still known among us under the name Of Byzantine, and which had been imported thither from Persia and other parts Of the East. The Visigothic monarchy terminated at the beginning Of the 8th century; at that period the Arabs invaded the Peninsula and took possession Of the greater part Of the territory. The Christians in the meantime organized their defence from the mountains of the Asturias, where the principal chiefs had taken refuge, and three centuries passed before they were able to recover Toledo, ad. 108 5, and other four, ad. 1 49 2, before they turned.
