Download or read book Revolutionary Paris and the Market for Netherlandish Art written by Darius A. Spieth and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seventeenth-century Dutch and Flemish paintings were aesthetic, intellectual, and economic touchstones in the Parisian art world of the Revolutionary era, but their importance within this framework, while frequently acknowledged, never attracted much subsequent attention. Darius A. Spieth’s inquiry into Revolutionary Paris and the Market for Netherlandish Art reveals the dominance of “Golden Age” pictures in the artistic discourse and sales transactions before, during, and after the French Revolution. A broadly based statistical investigation, undertaken as part of this study, shows that the upheaval reduced prices for Netherlandish paintings by about 55% compared to the Old Regime, and that it took until after the July Revolution of 1830 for art prices to return where they stood before 1789.

Book excerpt: On s'intéresse de plus en plus aux objets comme à des êtres vivants, qui ont chacun une biographie. Rien de moins immobile qu'un objet: les objets migrateurs ont toujours existé, qu'il s'agisse d'hommes, de dieux, d'idées, de langues, de musiques, de cuisines ou de choses. Aujourd'hui où, particulièrement en Méditerranée, l'accueil de ceux qu'on nomme ' migrants ' est à l'ordre du jour, il s'agit de dédiaboliser l'idée de migration et de montrer comment les objets migrateurs servent à constituer cette civilisation que nous disons nôtre, à la diffuser et à la faire évoluer. L'une des originalités de l'exposition est de faire dialoguer l'antique et le contemporain, entre objets d'art les plus précieux et objets du quotidien. Ainsi, on découvrira côte à côte une coupe présentant Ulysse sur son radeau, fait de deux amphores, et un écoboat en bouteilles de plastique. 0Le propos est de faire l'inventaire des types de transformations dues aux migrations. On passe de l'unique - un objet-mémoire parfaitement singulier - au multiple avec le commerce et la diffusion, croisant le problème de la copie, du faux, de la contrefaçon, du réemploi - le crâne de L'Homme de Rio est-il un vrai faux, un faux vrai ? Qu'est-ce qu'une hybridation, un syncrétisme, un métissage ? Et une appropriation, une inspiration? Les modalités de réinvestissement de l'objet remettent en travail les idées de centre et de périphérie, d'original et de copie, de même et d'autre. 0Se déploie enfin la question des objets à l'arrêt dans les musées - objets de curiosité, de science, d'art, objets patrimoniaux -, et celle, très actuelle, des objets restitués et des objets partagés.00Exhibition: Vieille Charité de Marseille, France (07.04-16.10.2022).

Download or read book A History of Curiosity written by Justin Stagl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 2002. A History of Curiosity examines the early methodology of anthropological and social research from a criticalhistorical perspective. The three principal methods of research, travel, the survey and the collection of significant objects, are studied in the context of the social conditions and intellectual trends of early modern times. The author's grasp of the vast, often obscure, but highly interesting body of literature which emerged in the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries commands the attention of a wide readership outside purely academic boundaries. He weaves together a series of separate studies, emphasising links between the figures, the philosophies and the literatures of early modern times; links which have previously only been suspected. In focussing on the ars apodemica, or art of travelling'', a body of formal instructions on how to travel, observe and record the information gathered, the author demonstrates the origins of the characteristic inquisitive and systematizing spirit of the modern West.

Book excerpt: "Fondateur du musée de Port-Royal des Champs, spécialiste de Philippe de Champaigne, Bernard Dorival a été également historien de l'art du XXe siècle, acteur incontournable dans la constitution des collections du Musée National d'Art Moderne. Bernard Dorival est issu d'une famille de collectionneurs dont certaines pièces forment le premier noyau de sa collection : Champaigne, Sellaio, Millet, Boudin, Monet, Redon... Il entreprend d'acheter les oeuvres d'artistes contemporains dont il défend la production dans des livres et des articles. Ses fonctions au sein des musées de France l'ont amené à rencontrer les plus grands créateurs de son époque et lui ont permis de nouer des relations étroites avec bon nombre d'entre eux. Il a vu leurs premières oeuvres, il a accompagné leur éclosion, il les a aidés dans leurs moments de doute, il les a soutenus en achetant leurs peintures et sculptures et en faisant entrer leurs oeuvres dans les collections publiques. La "Nouvelle école de Paris" compose la plus large part de sa collection personnelle, manifestant tout à la fois ses goûts propres et ses amitiés : Rouault, Zao Wou-ki, Manessier, de Staël, Kupka, Szenes et Vieira da Silva, Léger, Atlan... Les quelque cinquante oeuvres exposées, pour une bonne part inédites, dessinent le paysage de l'art contemporain des années 1940 à 2000 et le portrait intime d'un "honnête homme" du XXe siècle. Le musée de Port-Royal des Champs rend hommage à son fondateur, à l'occasion du centième anniversaire de sa naissance. La présentation au public d'une partie de sa collection personnelle permet de saisir les différentes facettes d'une personnalité essentielle de l'histoire de l'art et de la création artistique contemporaine."--P.

Download or read book Andr Gide and Curiosity written by Victoria Reid and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive exploration of curiosity in the fiction and life-writing of André Gide (1869–1951) is an important modernist contribution to the field of curiosity in literature and cultural studies more broadly. Curiosity was a credo for Gide. By observing the world and then manifesting in writing these observations, he stimulates the curiosity of readers, conceived as virtual conduits of a curiosity once his own. Using a thematic structure of sexual, scientific and writerly curiosity, this volume identifies processes of curiosity in the life-writing (including the travel-writing) which illuminate processes in the fiction, and vice versa. Theories of fetishism, gender and sexuality are applied to Gide’s corpus to illustrate his championing of a masculine curiosity of enlightenment and adventure over a feminised ‘curiosité-défaillance’ of disobedience and harm, and to explore objects eliciting his incuriosity. Gide’s creativity is nourished by his curiosity, as close readings of his work informed by Melanie Klein’s psychoanalytic writing on epistemophilia reveal. Curiosity is a rewarding, non-reductionist perspective from which the exceptional variety of Gide’s subject matter, style and genre can be more coherently understood. Research draws principally on the six Pléiade volumes of Gide’s œuvre, published 1996–2009.
