Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pittore e frate domenicano, uomo di fede e pennello divino. Nato Guido, vissuto come fra’ Giovanni da Fiesole, diventato famoso come Beato Angelico. Molti nomi per un uomo solo, venuto con umiltà da Vicchio, piccolo paese del Mugello fiorentino, e approdato a Firenze nella bottega del frate camaldolese Lorenzo Monaco per “dipinger Madonne”. In forma di dialogo Nino Giordano e Alfonso Fressola ricostruiscono la vita e le opere di uno dei protagonisti del Rinascimento, artista appartenuto alla “generazione di mezzo” che seguì Brunelleschi, Donatello e Masaccio, lavorò per Cosimo de’ Medici e preparò la strada a Botticelli, Lippi e Leonardo. “L’Angelico è angelico, non solo per la sua predilezione a dipingere gli angeli, ma soprattutto per il candore delle sue virtù e la capacità di tradurre in immagini la teologia di Tommaso d’Aquino.” Scrive padre Giuseppe M. Damigella nella sua introduzione. Il Beato Angelico... una persona modernissima.

Download or read book Knots or the Violence of Desire in Renaissance Florence written by Emanuele Lugli and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2023-03-07 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An interdisciplinary study of hair through the art, philosophy, and science of fifteenth-century Florence. In this innovative cultural history, hair is the portal through which Emanuele Lugli accesses the cultural production of Lorenzo il Magnifico’s Florence. Lugli reflects on the ways writers, doctors, and artists expressed religious prejudices, health beliefs, and gender and class subjugation through alluring works of art, in medical and political writings, and in poetry. He considers what may have compelled Sandro Botticelli, the young Leonardo da Vinci, and dozens of their contemporaries to obsess over braids, knots, and hairdos by examining their engagement with scientific, philosophical, and theological practices. By studying hundreds of fifteenth-century documents that engage with hair, Lugli foregrounds hair’s association to death and gathers insights about human life at a time when Renaissance thinkers redefined what it meant to be human and to be alive. Lugli uncovers overlooked perceptions of hair when it came to be identified as a potential vector for liberating culture, and he corrects a centuries-old prejudice that sees hair as a trivial subject, relegated to passing fashion or the decorative. He shows hair, instead, to be at the heart of Florentine culture, whose inherent violence Lugli reveals by prompting questions about the entanglement of politics and desire.

Download or read book Pierre Huyghe written by Pierre Huyghe and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pierre Huyghe's reputation in the international contemporary art scene is based on installations, films, and collaborative projects that probe our collective imagination. His works tend to generate a sense of instability by imposing unusual strategies of perception on the narrative structures through which it is constructed. They engage the observers, causing their own stock of visual images and individual memories to interact with the artificial memory of the media. The experience often underlines the rift that is produced between the real and its representation, especially in the means of communication used by the entertainment industry. Castello di Rivoli has organized an ambitious Huyghe retrospective and this catalogue-with a special pop up insert-presents all aspects of his oeuvre, including Blance-Neige Lucie, No Ghost Just a Shell, Sleeptalking, and a new work, Float, created for the show. The catalog includes a broad selection of Huyghe's own writings as well as extracts by other contemporary artists and critics, including a major essay by Carolyn Christov-Barkargiev, and a complete bio-bibliography.
