Book An Analysis of Griselda Pollock s Vision and Difference

Download or read book An Analysis of Griselda Pollock s Vision and Difference written by Karina Jakubowicz and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-02-21 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vision and Difference, published in 1988, is one of the most significant works in feminist visual culture arguing that feminist art history of is a political as well as academic endeavour. Pollock expresses how images are key to the construction of sexual difference, both in visual culture and in broader societal experiences. Her argument places feminist theory at the centre of art history, proffering the idea that a feminist understanding of art history is an analysis of art history itself. This text remains key not only to understand feminine art historically but to grasp strategies for representation in the future and adding to its contemporary value.

Book Helen Frankenthaler

    Book Details:
  • Author : Alison Rowley
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2007-10-24
  • ISBN : 0857713205
  • Pages : 183 pages

Download or read book Helen Frankenthaler written by Alison Rowley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2007-10-24 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extraordinary examination of the work of 'colour field' painter Helen Frankenthaler overturns assumptions about the artist, whose work has been burdened by its label as 'the bridge between Pollock and what was possible'. Trained as a painter, Alison Rowley brings a keen eye to Frankenthaler's paintings, returning to the fore the artist's debt not only to Jackson Pollock but also to Cezanne, and speculating for the first time as to her artistic responses to wider political events, in particular the Rosenberg trial. Making a fascinating case, too, for the connections between the 'breakthrough' work 'Mountains and Sea' and Lily Briscoe's painting in Virginia Woolf's novel 'To the Lighthouse', this beautifully written book provides crucial new insights into Frankenthaler's practice, as a painter who is also a woman.

Book Differencing the Canon

  • Author : Griselda Pollock
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2013-04-15
  • ISBN : 1135084475
  • Pages : 372 pages

Download or read book Differencing the Canon written by Griselda Pollock and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this major book, Griselda Pollock engages boldly in the culture wars over `what is the canon?` and `what difference can feminism make?` Do we simply reject the all-male line-up and satisfy our need for ideal egos with an all women litany of artistic heroines? Or is the question a chance to resist the phallocentric binary and allow the ambiguities and complexities of desire - subjectivity and sexuality - to shape the readings of art that constantly displace the present gender demarcations?

Book The Auschwitz Sonderkommando

Download or read book The Auschwitz Sonderkommando written by Nicholas Chare and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-15 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to bring together analyses of the full range of post-war testimony given by survivors of the Sonderkommando of Auschwitz-Birkenau. The Auschwitz Sonderkommando were slave labourers in the gas chambers and crematoria, forced to process and dispose of the bodies of those who were murdered. They have been central to a number of key topics in post-war debates about the Shoah: collaboration, moral compromise and survival, resistance, representation, and the possibility of bearing witness. Their testimony however has mostly met with a reluctance to engage in depth with it. Moving from testimonies produced within the event, the Scrolls of Auschwitz and the Sonderkommando photographs, to testimonies given at trials and for video archives, and to the paintings of David Olère and the film Shoah by Claude Lanzmann, this book demonstrates the importance of their witnessing in the post-war memory of the Holocaust, and provides vital new insights into the questions of representation, memory, gender, and the Shoah.

Book Aesthetics  Ethics and Trauma in the Cinema of Pedro Almodovar

This book was released on 2017-05-24 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new critical and theoretical approach to a neglected aspect of Pedro AlmodAvars cinemaOne of Spains most celebrated directors, Pedro AlmodAvar has won international recognition for his dark comedy-dramas like Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, All About My Mother and Volver. Reconceptualising AlmodAvars films as theoretical and political resources, this innovative book examines a neglected aspect of his cinema: its engagement with the traumatic past, with subjective and collective memory, and with the ethical and political meanings that result from this engagement. With close readings of AlmodAvars films from the 1990s and 2000s, including Bad Education and The Skin I Live In, JuliA!n Daniel GutiA(c)rrez-Albilla explores how AlmodAvars cinema mourns and witnesses the traces of trauma, drawing on theoretical approaches from trauma studies, psychoanalysis, philosophy, film studies and visual studies to suggest that his work proposes an ethical model based on our compassionate relations to others, and envisions a world co-inhabited by plurality and difference.Key featuresExplores how Pedro AlmodAvar engages with the traumatic pastIncludes close readings of AlmodAvars films from the 1990s and 2000sDraws on theoretical approaches from trauma studies, psychoanalysis, philosophy, film studies and visual studies

Book Friedrich Pollock

Download or read book Friedrich Pollock written by Philipp Lenhard and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-07-22 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The son of an industrialist who wanted to abolish private property. A Jew who didn’t want anything to do with Judaism. A professor who published little. An economist who squandered his wealth on the stock market. A communist who thought Marxism was anachronistic. And finally: a critical intellectual. When dealing with the political culture of the Weimar Republic, the development of Critical Theory and German-Jewish emigration to the USA, there is no way around Friedrich Pollock. Max Horkheimer’s companion and the founder of the Institute for Social Research in Frankfurt plays an important part in German-Jewish intellectual history as one of the most prominent representatives of Critical Theory. The present volume presents the first biography of a major but overlooked figure.
