Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The era of the Ballets Russes is probably the most chronicled in dance history, yet this book is the first to explain the company as a totality--its art, enterprise, and tudience. Taking a fresh look at familiar sources and incorporating fascinating archival material previously unexamined by Diaghilev scholars, Lynn Garafola paints an extraordinary portrait of the Ballets Russes, one that is bound to upset received opinion about the wellsprings and impact of early modernism.

Book Art beyond Borders

  • Author : Jerome Bazin
  • Publisher : Central European University Press
  • Release : 2016-03-01
  • ISBN : 9633860830
  • Pages : 531 pages

Download or read book Art beyond Borders written by Jerome Bazin and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents and analyzes artistic interactions both within the Soviet bloc and with the West between 1945 and 1989. During the Cold War the exchange of artistic ideas and products united Europe?s avant-garde in a most remarkable way. Despite the Iron Curtain and national and political borders there existed a constant flow of artists, artworks, artistic ideas and practices. The geographic borders of these exchanges have yet to be clearly defined. How were networks, centers, peripheries (local, national and international), scales, and distances constructed? How did (neo)avant-garde tendencies relate with officially sanctioned socialist realism? The literature on the art of Eastern Europe provides a great deal of factual knowledge about a vast cultural space, but mostly through the prism of stereotypes and national preoccupations. By discussing artworks, studying the writings on art, observing artistic evolution and artists? strategies, as well as the influence of political authorities, art dealers and art critics, the essays in Art beyond Borders compose a transnational history of arts in the Soviet satellite countries in the post war period. ÿ

Book excerpt: Constructivist and sculptor Naum Gabo’s personal account of his development as an artist A leading exponent of the modern art movement known as Constructivism, Russian-born Naum Gabo was one of the most important sculptors of the twentieth century—an artist, designer, and theorist whose work changed the course of modern art. Of Divers Arts is Gabo’s beautifully written personal account of his development and growing into consciousness as an artist and his constant search for new techniques of communication. Throughout, he reflects on the relationship between art and science and reveals the many important influences on his work, especially the natural world, Russian religious and folk art, and the work of the artist Mikhail Vrubel. The result is a remarkable autobiographical account of a major modern artist.

Book Bie  arusian Fine Art  Time and Time Again

Download or read book Bie arusian Fine Art Time and Time Again written by Zina Gimpelevich and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s hard to imagine feeling a sense of loss for artwork until you become immersed in the stories of the Biełarusian fine artists Dr. Zina Gimpelevich has spotlighted in her newest book. She brought to life artists whose work was curtailed under the tyranny of the Russian Empire, the tragedy of the Holocaust, and persistent poverty. Yet these artists’ collective resilience and the work they produced—paintings, sculptures, textiles, ceramics, and more—have helped bring beauty and joy to the world, even when depicting the suffering felt by so many. In Biełarusian Fine Art: Time and Time Again, Dr. Gimpelevich celebrates the work of over 150 Biełarusian fine artists (including many from the School of Paris). She estimates more than 3,000 Biełarusian artists are creating today in Biełaruś, her birth country. Many remained in their home country. Many became émigrés who traveled beyond borders and never returned home. Native sons, such as Mark Šahał (Marc Chagall) and Markus Yakaŭlevič Rotkovič (Mark Rothko) have left their influence and work the world over and are often “claimed” by other countries. Other fine artists created in obscurity or self-imposed exile, hiding their work to avoid the grasp of oppressive regimes. Dr. Gimpelevich has ensured their names and work will not be forgotten and will receive the recognition they richly deserve. The harsh truths Dr. Gimpelevich brings to light are tempered with glimmers of hope from recent-generation Biełarusian fine artists. Like their predecessors and mentors, their work shows an unyielding reverence for their country’s landscapes, culture, history, and people. Although this book has its lens focused on Biełarusian fine art, Dr. Gimpelevich adeptly provides readers with a deeper understanding of how politics and power struggles have affected this little-known country’s citizens, many of which still endure today.

  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 342 pages

Download or read book From Russia written by Museum Kunst Palast (Düsseldorf, Germany) and published by Royal Academy Books. This book was released on 2008-06 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rich tradition of French painting was an important influence on Russian art from the mid-nineteenth century to the 1920s, a period that saw the rise of many of the most important movements in modern art. A magnificent visual record of an unprecedented event, this book, the catalogue of an ambitious exhibition of master paintings from the four greatest museums of Russia, examines the interaction of these two great cultures. Drawing on the collections of the State Russian Museum and the Pushkin Museum in Moscow and the Tretyakov Gallery and the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, the book presents outstanding examples of Salon painting, Impressionism, Fauvism, and Cubism in France, and related movements in Russia, among them The Wanderers, Constructivism, and Suprematism. Paintings by Renoir, Cezanne, Van Gogh, Gauguin, and Matisse are reproduced, along with works by Kandinsky, Tatlin, and Malevich. Key episodes in the story of this fascinating exchange include the vital role played by the great Russian collectors Ivan Morosov and Sergei Shchukin, whose preeminent collections of French art were an inspiration to the Russian avant-garde; the ballet impresario Sergei Diaghilev's promotion of Russian art in France in 1906; and Henri Matisse's visit to Russia in 1911.
