Book East Asian Aesthetics and the Space of Painting in Eighteenth Century Europe

Download or read book East Asian Aesthetics and the Space of Painting in Eighteenth Century Europe written by Isabelle Tillerot and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insightful look at how East Asian notions of space transformed Western painting. This volume offers the first critical account of how European imports of East Asian textiles, porcelain, and lacquers, along with newly published descriptions of the Chinese garden, inspired a revolution in the role of painting in early modern Europe. With particular focus on French interiors, Isabelle Tillerot reveals how a European enthusiasm for East Asian culture and a demand for novelty transformed the dynamic between painting and decor. Models of space, landscape, and horizon, as shown in Chinese and Japanese objects and their ornamentation, disrupted prevailing design concepts in Europe. With paintings no longer functioning as pictorial windows, they began to be viewed as discrete images displayed on a wall—and with that, their status changed from decorative device to autonomous work of art. This study presents a detailed history of this transformation, revealing how an aesthetic free from the constraints of symmetry and geometrized order upended paradigms of display, enabling European painting to come into its own.

Book The Chinese Chameleon Revisited

Download or read book The Chinese Chameleon Revisited written by Zheng Yangwen 鄭揚文 and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By examining how the Middle Kingdom has been portrayed by foreigners and the Chinese themselves, this volume advances a new perspective in our reading and interpretation of the Chinese past by placing these “producers” and “presenters” of China in the spotlight. The chapters probe how these figures produced or presented the country, cross-examining their backgrounds and circumstances. Their gaze upon the Middle Kingdom was dictated by religious and political conviction, but also particularly by the consumers of that gaze. Like invisible hands, “producers” and “consumers” of China continue to constrain representations of the country, looming larger than the literary, artistic or journalistic works they produce. This volume also addresses scholars of Europe and America who have overlooked what Western writers on China reveal about their own contexts – which is indeed often more than they reveal about their ostensible subject. As such, the Middle Kingdom serves as a convenient mirror to reflect European and American anxieties and ambitions.

Book L Europe Et Le Monde Colonial Au XVIIIe Si  cle

Download or read book L Europe Et Le Monde Colonial Au XVIIIe Si cle written by Luigi Delia and published by Honoré Champion. This book was released on 2013 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Variant les approches et les contextes, les contributions de ce volume étudient les échanges, les rapports de pouvoir et de domination, les médiations et les transformations, les interactions et les transferts culturels entre les États européens et leurs colonies dans les espaces américains et asiatiques à l’âge des Lumières. Le phénomène colonial a, par son caractère protéiforme, conduit à croiser les regards dans un esprit d’interdisciplinarité. Autour de l’idée de représentation sont réunies des enquêtes dont l’interrogation centrale relève souvent d’une scénographie du « colonial » comme origine, lieu et résultat des expressions verbales ou visuelles. Il s’agit d’éclairer ce que peuvent recouvrir ces représentations liées pour la plupart à la question de l’identité. Elles permettent une étude directe – sinon exhaustive – des rapports socio-culturels et juridico-politiques entre centre et périphérie."--BACK COVER.

Book European Yearbook   Annuaire Europeen 1964

Download or read book European Yearbook Annuaire Europeen 1964 written by Council of Europe/Conseil de L'Europe and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 1966-07-01 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "European Yearbook" promotes the scientific study of nineteen European supranational organisations and the OECD. The series offers a detailed survey of the history, structure and yearly activities of each organisation and an up-to-date overview of the member states of each organisation. This special anniversary volume celebrates 60 years of publication of the Yearbook, and its contents differs from that of the regular volumes therefore. It offers a selection of the most important articles, dealing with European cooperation and integration, to appear in the Yearbook during its 60 years of publication. These are of particular interest not only because they provide a unique historical snapshot of the many successes (and occasional failures) in the field of European integration but also because they discuss the ideals and aims that lay behind these efforts, many of which still resonate today as Europe confronts questions about its political destiny and ideal shape. This volume contains articles in English and French."

Book Annuaire Europ  en Vol  Xii European Yearbook

Download or read book Annuaire Europ en Vol Xii European Yearbook written by B. Landheer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-12-14 with total page 898 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term EUROVISION, invented-by pure chance-only a few years ago, is now familiar to millions. What the name covers is the subject of this paper. EUROVISION is not the name of an organisation or company, but rather an emblem. It signifies international co-operation in television programme exchanges within the framework of the European Broad casting Union - or rather the most spectacular element of that Co-oper ation. It appears conspicuously at the head of programmes relayed by several countries. To understand the full extent of this co-operation, it is best to look at the wider field covered by the structure and working of the European Broadcasting Union itself. The European Broadcasting Union is a professional association, grouping Western European radio-television organisations as active members, with organisations in other continents as associate members. It is financed by contributions from its members. Questions of principle, management and financial responsibility come under the Administrative Council or the General Assembly (from which it is elected) - in which the Directors-General of the several organisations are represented. The present Chairman is M. RoDIN6 of Italy who succeeded M. RYDBECK of Sweden. Four Committees are responsible for preparatory studies and routine problems: the Legal, the Technical, the Programme and the Sound Broadcasting Committees, which group the specialist Service Directors.
