Download or read book Alfredo Boulton written by Idurre Alonso and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2023-07-18 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lavishly illustrated volume examines the work of the Venezuelan photographer and art historian Alfredo Boulton, one of the main intellectuals of Latin American modernity. Alfredo Boulton (1908–1995) is considered one of the most important champions of modern art in Venezuela and a key intellectual of twentieth-century modernism. He was a pioneer of modern photography, an art critic, a researcher and historian of Venezuelan art, a friend to many of the great artists and architects of the twentieth century, and an expert on the imagery of the heroes of his country’s independence. Yet, Boulton is shockingly underrecognized outside of his native land. The few exhibitions related to his work have focused exclusively on his photographic production; never has there been a project that looks at the full range of Boulton’s efforts, foregrounding his influence on the shaping of Venezuelan art. This volume addresses these lacunae by analyzing Boulton’s groundbreaking photographic practice, his central role in the construction of a modern national artistic canon, and his influence in formalizing and developing art history and criticism in Venezuela. Based on the extensive materials held in Boulton’s archive at the Getty Research Institute, Alfredo Boulton brings together essays by leading scholars in the field to offer a commanding, original perspective on his contributions to the formation of a distinctive modernity at home and beyond. This volume is published to accompany an exhibition on view at the Getty Research Institute at the Getty Center from August 29, 2023, to January 21, 2024.

Download or read book Inessential Colors written by Basile Baudez and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-21 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive account of how and why architects learned to communicate through color Architectural drawings of the Italian Renaissance were largely devoid of color, but from the seventeenth century through the nineteenth, polychromy in architectural representation grew and flourished. Basile Baudez argues that colors appeared on paper when architects adapted the pictorial tools of imitation, cartographers' natural signs, military engineers' conventions, and, finally, painters' affective goals in an attempt to communicate with a broad public. Inessential Colors traces the use of color in European architectural drawings and prints, revealing how this phenomenon reflected the professional anxieties of an emerging professional practice that was simultaneously art and science. Traversing national borders, the book addresses color as a key player in the long history of rivalry and exchange between European traditions in architectural representation and practice. Featuring a wealth of previously unpublished drawings, Inessential Colors challenges the long-standing misreading of architectural drawings as illustrations rather than representations, pointing instead to their inherent qualities as independent objects whose beauty paved the way for the visual system architects use today.

Download or read book Experi ncia m gica del cinema L Col lecci Josep Queralt written by Universitat de Barcelona and published by Edicions Universitat Barcelona. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Col·lecció Josep M. Queraltó, una de les més importants d’Europa sobre la tècnica cinematogràfica, reuneix innombrables peces i enginys de tota mena, avui insospitats, que van fer possible l’origen i l’evolució del setè art. La seva història, el seu relat, és apassionant. Aquest catàleg –que publiquem amb motiu de la mostra «L’experiència màgica del cinema», celebrada a la Universitat de Barcelona–, submergeix el lector en l’univers fascinador del cinema i n’explica la història des de les primeres albors fins a l’aparició del cinematògraf dels germans Lumière, així com els seus vincles amb les ciències i l’art. Les ombres xineses, les llanternes, les kinores, les joguines òptiques i tants d’altres artefactes avui desconeguts són la materialització de l’anhel reeixit de la humanitat de captar i reproduir la realitat o, més aviat, l’experiència fugissera que en tenim. Els textos de Josep Maria Caparrós i Jordi S. Bonet contextualitzen i expliquen amb amenitat l’abast d’aquests objectes primigenis, que han evolucionat en paral·lel a la història d’una disciplina tan universal i estimada com ho és el cinema. Sens dubte una de les millors maneres d’endinsar-nos en la màgia dels orígens, que encara avui conservem. ; ; The Josep M. Queraltó Collection, one of the most important in Europe on the Technology of the cinema, includes countless pieces and all kinds of devices, now forgotten, that made the origins and the development of the Seventh Art possible. Its history, the story it tells, is exciting. This catalogue – published for the show “The Magical Experience of the Cinema”, held in the University of Barcelona – immerses readers in the fascinating world of the cinema and tells its story from the earliest days to the appearance of the Lumière brothers’ cinématographe, and its connections with the sciences and art. Chinese shadows, lanterns, Kinoras, optical toys and so many other artefacts, now unknown, are the materialization of mankind’s successful longing to capture and reproduce reality or, rather, the fleeting experience that we have of it. The texts by Josep Maria Caparrós and Jordi S. Bonet pleasantly contextualize and explain the scope of these rudimentary objects, which have developed parallel to the history of such a universal and well-loved discipline: the cinema. It is unquestionably one of the best ways to learn about the magic of the origins, which we still conserve today.
