Book Alte and Neue Pinakothek Munich

Download or read book Alte and Neue Pinakothek Munich written by Bernhard Maaz and published by Scala. This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Alte and Neue Pinakothek in Munich rank among the great galleries of the world. Their comprehensive collections trace in detail the development of art from the Middle Ages through the periods of the Renaissance, Baroque, Romanticism, Realism and Impressionism up to the birth of Modernism.The Neoclassical design of the Alte Pinakothek by Leo von Klenze (1836) had a seminal influence on museum architecture in Europe and provides the setting for the Old Masters. After the second museum building (completed in 1853) was destroyed during the Second World War, the architect Alexander von Branca created today’s Neue Pinakothek (1981). Its formal expression, in the idiom of a medieval fortress, and impressive exhibition galleries have made it a classic of Postmodernism. In this book, the author offers a refreshingly personal perspective on an eclectic selection of memorable works from across the collections.

  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 378 pages

Download or read book Greg Lynn FORM written by Mark Rappolt and published by Rizzoli International Publications. This book was released on 2008 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most provocative and exciting architects today, Greg Lynn has defined how designers and architects use computers as a medium, operating in an expanded field that fuses cutting-edge technology, contemporary art, and science fiction aesthetics with architectural form. At the epicenter of a debate about the role of digital design and new fabrication methods in architecture and general design culture, his projects skillfully blend high technology and detailed craftsmanship, driven by modeling software from the film and aerospace industries. They range from the Ravioli lounge chair for Vitra to the Embryological House, a pre-fab housing type that takes advantage of new manufacturing technologies to produce customized houses adaptable to local conditions. Included are contributions from theorists, architects, and artists, and futurists such as Sylvia Lavin, Ben van Berkel, and Caroline Bos of UN Studio, J.G. Ballard, and Tom Friedman, among others. Greg Lynn FORM offers a window into Lynn's methods and techniques, theoretical positions, and career trajectory. Rather than a retrospective of Lynn's career, it is thought-provoking and forward-looking.

Book Color Chart

  • Author : Ann Temkin
  • Publisher : The Museum of Modern Art
  • Release : 2008
  • ISBN : 9780870707315
  • Pages : 256 pages

Download or read book Color Chart written by Ann Temkin and published by The Museum of Modern Art. This book was released on 2008 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Color Chart celebrates a paradox: the lush beauty that results when contemporary artists assign colour decisions to chance, readymade source or arbitrary system. Midway through the 20th century, long-held convictions regarding the spiritual truth or scientific validity of particular colours gave way to an excitement about colour as a mass-produced and standardized commercial product. The Romantic quest for personal expression instead became Andy Warhol's 'I want to be a machine'; the artistry of mixing pigments was eclipsed by Frank Stella's 'Straight out of the can; it can't get better than that'. This book, and the exhibition it accompanies, is the first devoted to this pivotal transformation, and features work by some forty artists ranging from Ellsworth Kelly and Gerhard Richter to Sherrie Levine and Damien Hirst.

  • Release : 2021-02-17
  • ISBN : 9783777435879
  • Pages : 288 pages

Download or read book Jacobus Vrel written by Quentin Buvelot and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-17 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation into the art of a mysterious Dutch painter who left no written records behind. His paintings are curious, his figures introverted, and his street scenes strangely stage-like. Jacobus Vrel recorded everyday life in Holland during the seventeenth century and conjured his own idiosyncratic world at the same time. This volume presents the fascinating complete oeuvre of a painter whose works were thought in the nineteenth century to have been painted by Vermeer. Jacobus Vrel is like a phantom. No written sources describing the artist or his work have ever been discovered. His existence is documented only by some fifty surviving works which can hardly be compared with those of his contemporaries. His works, in their austerity and sometimes oppressive silence, seem unexpectedly modern, and have been compared to the paintings of Vilhelm Hammershøi. With detective-like investigative flair, and drawing on extensive technical examinations of the paintings, this book explores the mysterious pictures of this recently rediscovered painter.

Download or read book Women written by Carla Schulz-Hoffmann and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regardless of the clichés associated with Pablo Picasso (1881-1973), Max Beckmann (1884-1950), and Willem de Kooning (1904-1997) in the "public" private sphere, their exploration of the theme "woman" go far beyond one-sided definitions. Their portrayals of women are highly nuanced; they have a significance of their own and time and again become sensitive reflections of social and political problems and upheavals. They are not simply surfaces upon which are projected male longings and desires, but catalysts for a confrontation with the artist's own life and history (Picasso), while in Beckmann's work they are completely free, independent counter-images. De Kooning sees them as a separate force within which culminate opportunities for artistic expression. Contributions by art historians, authors, sociologists, and artists approach the theme from a variety of perspectives. Exhibition: Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich, Germany (30.3.-15.6.2012).

Book excerpt: In 2002, four unique museums moved into the newly constructed Pinakothek der Moderne, thus founding one of the largest institutions of twentieth and twenty-first century art and culture in the world. To celebrate their fifteenth anniversary, the Architekturmuseum der Technischen Universität München (Architecture Museum at the Munich Technical University), the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen (Bavarian State Collection of Paintings), Die Neue Sammlung - The Design Museum (The New Collection - The Design Museum), and the Staatliche Graphische Sammlung München (State Collection of Prints, Munich) will open up their collections and take readers on a kind of interdisciplinary tour through two hundred eleven collection highlights of architecture, visual and applied arts, prints, and design. Including eight essays which provide an overview of the cultural-historical developments in the decades between 1895 and 2017, the interplay among the genres reveals a glimpse into modernism's cultural history. A special guide for visitors to the museum and an addition for the library at home.
