Book Architecture  Theater  and Fantasy

Download or read book Architecture Theater and Fantasy written by John Marciari and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the first half of the eighteenth century, members of three generations of the Bibiena family were the most highly sought theater designers in Europe. Their elaborate and masterful stage designs were used for operas, festivals, and courtly performances across Europe: from their native Italy to cites as far afield as Vienna, Prague, Stockholm, St. Petersburg, and Lisbon. Their distinctive style also became widely known through the collections of engravings published after their remarkable drawings. This publication accompanies an exhibition at the Morgan Library & Museum that is the first in the United States in over fifty years to celebrate these talented draftsmen; the exhibition and its catalogue also mark the promised gift to the Morgan of a group of Bibiena drawings from the collection of Jules Fisher, the Tony-winning lighting designer. These drawings demonstrate the range of the Bibienas' output, from initial sketches to highly finished watercolors. With representations of imagined palace interiors and lavish illusionistic architecture, this group of drawings highlights the visual splendor of the Baroque stage"--

Book Writing a Chrysanthemum

    Book Details:
  • Author : Rachel Federman
  • Publisher : Delmonico Books
  • Release : 2022
  • ISBN : 9781636810386
  • Pages : 144 pages

Download or read book Writing a Chrysanthemum written by Rachel Federman and published by Delmonico Books. This book was released on 2022 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ""Rick Barton should have been a San Francisco legend," wrote author and artist Etel Adnan in a 1998 essay. Barton (American, 1928-1992) was born and raised in New York and settled in the Bay Area in the 1950s. Working primarily in pen or brush and ink, in a kaleidoscopic linear style, Barton ceaselessly recorded the world around him. His intricate sheets capture the intimate interiors and social spaces, lovers and friends, and architectural and botanical subjects that fascinated him. Bringing together more than sixty drawings, two accordion-folded sketchbooks, and printed books and portfolios, this catalogue presents the work of a significant and, until now, unheralded figure of the Beat era. Complementing the images are a deeply researched essay by Rachel Federman, curator of the accompanying exhibition at the Morgan Library & Museum, and an excerpt of Adnan's essay, the first and previously the only published account of Barton"--

Book Reflections on Baroque

    Book Details:
  • Author : Robert Harbison
  • Publisher : Reaktion Books
  • Release : 2002-09-01
  • ISBN : 1861898266
  • Pages : 273 pages

Download or read book Reflections on Baroque written by Robert Harbison and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2002-09-01 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its beginnings in the seventeenth century, the Baroque embraced the whole of Catholic Europe and infiltrated Protestant England, Orthodox Russia and even Muslim Turkey. Architecture, paintings, poetry, music, natural science and new forms of piety all have their places on the Baroque map. In this surprising reinterpretation of the Baroque, Robert Harbison offers new readings that stress its eccentric and tumultuous forms, in which a destablized sense of reality is often projected onto the viewer. This strange, subjectively inclined world is manifested in such bizarre phenomena as the small stuccoed universes of Giacomo Serpotta, the Sacred Mounts of Piedmont and the grimacing heads of F. X. Messerschmidt. Harbison explores the Baroque's metamorphoses into later styles, particularly the Rococo, and, in an unexpected twist, pursues the Baroque idea into the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, proposing provocative analyses of pastiches or imitations (in Der Rosenkavalier and the work of Aubrey Beardsley) or resemblances (deliberate or not) in Czech Cubism and Frank Gehry's architecture. Reflections on Baroque demonstrates that the Baroque impulse lives on in the twenty-first century imagination.
