Book excerpt: Tesis Doctoral / Disertación del año 2014 en eltema Arte - Escultura, plástica, Nota: SOBRESALIENTE CUM LAUDE, , Idioma: Español, Resumen: Hemos realizado un recorrido en la primera parte de nuestra tesis por las definiciones de los conceptos como naturaleza o paisaje, y la evolución de los mismos dentro el mundo del arte, donde aclaramos la complejidad que ha supuesto establecer un criterio unánime para definir el momento dentro de la historia de la pintura occidental, en la que ésta comienza a considerarse como pintura de paisaje. Concluyendo que aunque la temática del paisaje supone una inmersión paulatina desde que en 1508 Giorgione pintara La tempestad, es en Alemania, en el período del romanticismo, con representates como Caspar David Friedrich o Carl Gustav Carus, donde la representación del paisaje en la pintura se consolida como tal género. Hemos tratado este mismo aspecto en el mundo de la escultura, es decir, cómo la escultura comienza a relacionarse con el espacio natural en su historia, donde encontramos entre los expertos mayor unanimidad de criterios. Han sido esclarecedores los estudios que han centrado sus intereses en la transformación del pedestal, pues concluimos que este elemento y la evolución del mismo en la trayectoria propuesta por Brancusi, precedida de Rodin, será determinante en la relación que a partir de este momento se podrá establecer entre escultura y paisaje, conjuntamente con las transformaciones socio-culturales que se dieron en su momento. Comenzamos la introducción de esta investigación persiguiendo dar respuesta a una observación realizada sobre una obra de arte del orfismo respecto de otra ubicada dentro de las coordenadas del land art. Intuíamos la presencia de factores políticos, sociales y culturales que condicionarían los cambios necesarios para que el artista produjera en sus resultados plásticos, obras de arte tan distanciadas tanto en sus aspectos procesuales como conceptuales o formales, por mencionar alguno. Los dos ejemplos de los que partíamos (Delaunay Circular Forms, 1930 y Robert Smithson Espiral Jetty, 1970) han servido visualmente para marcar dos puntos dentro de la historia donde concluimos que el primero, estaría situado dentro de las coordenadas de la modernidad, mientras que el segundo, queda ubicado dentro de una etapa posterior denominada posmodernidad y de ahí las diferencias. Estos dos ejemplos de práctica artística, sirven como reflejo de los complejos procesos que tuvieron que darse dentro y fuera del mundo del arte para que éste pudiera comenzar a darse con otros nuevos comportamientos, metodologías, conceptos y resultados.

Download or read book Times Gone By written by Vicente Pérez Rosales and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2003-05-01 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These memoirs trace the wild and adventurous life of Pérez Rosales from his childhood up to the 1860s. During that approximately half-century he saw and did more than a dozen ordinary men. At age eleven in Argentina he witnessed the executions of Luis and Juan Jose Carrera. From there, his activities and adventures took him on several journeys on sailing vessels around Cape Horn; to Paris, where he witnessed the July revolution of 1830; to various commercial endeavors including a distillery, the practice of medicine, and cattle smuggling; into service as an advisor to an Argentine warlord; as a miner for precious metals in the north of Chile; as participant in the California Gold Rush in 1849; as director of the government's project for German immigration and settlement in the wild south of Chile; and also as Chilean consul and immigration agent in Hamburg. Around the world, Rosales lived through many of his era's watershed moments. His exciting memoirs offer a chance to relive the rush and chaos of these times--from a much safer vantage.

Download or read book Defending the Land of the Jaguar written by Lane Simonian and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-07-05 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mexican conservationists have sometimes observed that it is difficult to find a country less interested in the conservation of its natural resources than is Mexico. Yet, despite a long history dedicated to the pursuit of development regardless of its environmental consequences, Mexico has an equally long, though much less developed and appreciated, tradition of environmental conservation. Lane Simonian here offers the first panoramic history of conservation in Mexico from pre-contact times to the current Mexican environmental movement. He explores the origins of conservation and environmental concerns in Mexico, the philosophies and endeavors of Mexican conservationists, and the enactment of important conservation laws and programs. This heretofore untold story, drawn from interviews with leading Mexican conservationists as well as archival research, will be important reading throughout the international community of activists, researchers, and concerned citizens interested in the intertwined issues of conservation and development.
Download or read book From Where We Stand written by Deborah Tall and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does a particular landscape move us? What is it that attaches us to a particular place? Tall’s From Where We Stand is an eloquent exploration of the connections we have with places—and the loss to us if there are no such connections. A typically rootless child of several American suburbs, Tall set out to make a true home for herself in the landscape that circumstance had brought her—the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. In a mosaic of personal anecdotes, historical sketches, and lyrical meditations, she interweaves her own story with the story of this place and its people—from the Seneca Nation of the Iroquois, to European settlers, to the many utopians who sensed and were inspired by a spiritual resonance here. This edition includes an introduction by William Kittredge and a foreword by Stephen Kuusisto, both highlighting the book’s significance and Tall’s exquisite skill in tracing the relationship between homelands and storytelling.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the importance of deconstruction, and the writing of Jacques Derrida in particular, for literary criticism today? Derek Attridge argues that the challenge of Derrida's work for our understanding of literature and its value has still not been fully met, and in this book, which traces a close engagement with Derrida's writing over two decades and reflects an interest in that work going back a further two decades, shows how that work can illuminate a variety of topics. Chapters include an overview of deconstruction as a critical practice today, discussions of the secret, postcolonialism, ethics, literary criticism, jargon, fiction, and photography, and responses to the theoretical writing of Emmanuel Levinas, Roland Barthes, and J. Hillis Miller. Also included is a discussion of the recent reading of Derrida's philosophy as 'radical atheism', and the book ends with a conversation on deconstruction and place with the theorist and critic Jean-Michel Rabate. Running throughout is a concern with the question of responsibility, as exemplified in Derrida's own readings of literary and philosophical texts: responsibility to the work being read, responsibility to the protocols of rational argument, and responsibility to the reader.
