Download or read book South of Nowhere written by António Lobo Antunes and published by Random House (NY). This book was released on 1983 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recounts the anguished tale of a Portuguese medic haunted by memories of war, who, like the Ancient Mariner, will tell his tale to anyone who listens. In the tradition of William Faulkner and Gabriel García Márquez, Lobo Antunes weaves words into an exhilarating tapestry, imbuing his prose with the grace and resonance of poetry. The narrator, freshly returned to Lisbon after his hellish tour of duty in Angola, confesses the traumas of his memory to a nameless lover. Their evening unfolds like a fever dream, as Lobo Antunes leaps deftly back and forth from descriptions of postdictatorship Portugal to the bizarre and brutal world of life on the front line. The result is both tragic and absurd, and belongs among the great war novels of the modern age.

Download or read book Sipario written by Maurizio Fagiolo dell'Arco and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theater has always attracted the public because of the magnetism of the performance and the strange mystery of theatrical make-believe. Artists have always been lured by this wonderful fascination. The scholarly text by Maurizio Fagiolo dell'Arco guides us to the discovery of the relationship between art and theater from the second half of the nineteenth century until today. From Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, for which first Benois, then Larionov and Goncarova, created the highly colorful sets, up to Picasso and the Cubists', Balla and the Futurists' break with the avant-gardes. Through very famous works and plays like Oedipus Rex, Tales of Hoffmann, Armida and The Puritans, and other less-known ones like Iphigenia and The Jar, it is possible to get to know and appreciate the work of artists like Giacomo Balla, Giorgio de Chirico, Alberto Savinio, Pablo Picasso, Giulio Paolini and Enzo Cucchi. The latter's work inspired one of the greatest Italian photographers, Mario Giacomelli, who has taken a series of photographs also published in this volume.

Download or read book Faces in the Crowd written by Whitechapel Art Gallery and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Taking Edouard Manet as its starting point and moving through the work of major painters and sculptors such as Ensor, Boccioni, Duchamp, Kollwitz, Kirchner, Beckmann, Magritte, Picasso, Hopper, Warhol, Hamilton, Pistoletto, Richter, Acconci, Sherman, Schutte, Ofili and Kentridge, as well as photographers such as Atget, Brassai, Evans, Levitt, Arnold, Weegee, Giacomelli, Goldin and Keita, Faces in the Crowd traces a history of avant-garde figuration from the 1870s to today through the works of one hundred artists." "The great revolutions in twentieth century art tend to be associated with abstraction. Yet there is a parallel history, which is equally radical. Manet's vividly realist scenarios or Jeff Wall's cinematic tableaux offer a compelling pictorial illusion of the modern. By contrast, Edvard Munch or Francis Bacon present a tortured or exhilarated inner life. For Alexander Rodchenko, the figure can be an agent of social change, revolutionary transgressive or symbolic." "This catalogue accompanies the exhibition organised by the Whitechapel Gallery and the Castello di Rivoli Museum of Contemporary Art."--BOOK JACKET.
Download or read book The Work of Art written by Gérard Genette and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What art is--its very nature--is the subject of this book by one of the most distinguished continental theorists writing today. Informed by the aesthetics of Nelson Goodman and referring to a wide range of cultures, contexts, and media, The Work of Art seeks to discover, explain, and define how art exists and how it works. To this end, Gérard Genette explores the distinction between a work of art's immanence--its physical presence--and transcendence--the experience it induces. That experience may go far beyond the object itself.Genette situates art within the broad realm of human practices, extending from the fine arts of music, painting, sculpture, and literature to humbler but no less fertile fields such as haute couture and the culinary arts. His discussion touches on a rich array of examples and is bolstered by an extensive knowledge of the technology involved in producing and disseminating a work of art, regardless of whether that dissemination is by performance, reproduction, printing, or recording. Moving beyond examples, Genette proposes schemata for thinking about the different manifestations of a work of art. He also addresses the question of the artwork's duration and mutability.

Download or read book Andy Warhol Portraits written by Andy Warhol and published by Phaidon. This book was released on 2007-03-19 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "To the general public, Andy Warhol is known as a painter of famous faces - from Liz and Marilyn to his own ever-changing self-portrait. Less familiar are the portraits Warhol made throughout his career of socialites, art dealers, collectors, politicians, and a variety of contemporary cult figures, mostly commissioned work that helped finance his other wide-ranging artistic activities. Featuring more than 300 portraits made from the early 1960s until the artist's death in 1987, Andy Warhol Portraits is the first book to provide a comprehensive view of this overlooked body of work, which includes such well-known twentieth-century icons as Jackie Kennedy, Mick Jagger, Liza Minnelli, and Queen Elizabeth, as well as many paintings largely unknown even to avid Warhol followers. With contextualizing essays by longtime Warhol collaborator Tony Shafrazi and art critics Carter Ratcliff and Robert Rosenblum, Andy Warhol portraits is a face-book of the amazing cast of characters that populated Warhol's fascinating, star-studded, and, at times, sordid world." - inside front cover.
