Download or read book Sculptors and Design Reform in France 1848 to 1895 written by Claire Jones and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenging distinctions between fine and decorative art, this book begins with a critique of the Rodin scholarship, to establish how the selective study of his oeuvre has limited our understanding of French nineteenth-century sculpture. The book's central argument is that we need to include the decorative in the study of sculpture, in order to present a more accurate and comprehensive account of the practice and profession of sculpture in this period. Drawing on new archival sources, sculptors and objects, this is the first sustained study of how and why French sculptors collaborated with state and private luxury goods manufacturers between 1848 and 1895. Organised chronologically, the book identifies three historically-situated frameworks, through which sculptors attempted to validate themselves and their work in relation to industry: industrial art, decorative art and objet d'art. Detailed readings are offered of sculptors who operated within and outside the Salon, including S?n, Ch?t, Carrier-Belleuse and Rodin; and of diverse objects and materials, from S?es vases, to pewter plates by Desbois, and furniture by Barbedienne and Carabin. By contesting the false separation of art from industry, Claire Jones's study restores the importance of the sculptor-manufacturer relationship, and of the decorative, to the history of sculpture.

Book excerpt: "Pier Jacopo Alari Bonacolsi, known as Antico (c. 1455-1528), exemplifies the Renaissance passion for the revival of antiquity. Antico was proficient in all manner of antique art, which he studied, restored, and re-created with unparalleled skill. His gilded and silvered statuettes, made for the Gonzaga rulers at the court of Mantua, pioneered the genre of bronzes made in multiples....Antico's bronze inventions in turn promoted the iconic status of statuary from antiquity, such as the Apollo Belvedere discovered in Rome in 1489....This...publication...is the only available English-language monograph on the sculptor....Featuring a series of essays, the book provides an overview of Antico's career and addresses topics ranging from the chronology of his works to his understanding of the antique, his relationship with Mantuan humanism and Mantegna, his portraiture, aspects of his technique, and his artistic significance."--Front inside flap of dust jacket.

Download or read book National Identity and Nineteenth Century Franco Belgian Sculpture written by Jana Wijnsouw and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-27 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book elaborates on the social and cultural phenomenon of national schools during the nineteenth century, via the less studied field of sculpture and using Belgium as a case study. The role, importance of, and emphasis on certain aspects of national identity evolved throughout the century, while a diverse array of criteria were indicated by commissioners, art critics, or artists that supposedly constituted a "national sculpture." By confronting the role and impact of the four most crucial actors within the artistic field (politics, education, exhibitions, public commissions) with a linear timeframe, this book offers a chronological as well as a thematic approach. Artists covered include Guillaume Geefs, Eugène Simonis, Charles Van der Stappen, Julien Dillens, Paul Devigne, Constantin Meunier, and George Minne.
