Book Los ninfoleptos  Bipolaridad  Arte y Locura

Download or read book Los ninfoleptos Bipolaridad Arte y Locura written by Óscar Benassini Félix and published by Editorial Ink. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Incluye audio del autor. ¿Quiénes son los ninfoleptos? Antiguamente se les identificaba como personajes delirantes frente a las ninfas cuyas mentes veían emergiendo de una fuente. Sin embargo, ver visiones no era su único infortunio. La depresión y otras manías se consideraban su peor castigo. Hoy, mucho tiempo después se sabe que los ninfoleptos padecen bipolaridad, ese trastorno de la conducta que padecen importantes artistas de diversas disciplinas y que lo hizo ser considerado un don, más que un trastorno. Arte y enfermedad, vistos desde el ojo científico, es el tema que aborda Óscar Benassini en este ensayo en el que lo mismo nos sentiremos conmovidos frente al drama infantil de la poetisa Sylvia Plath que frente a las locuras adolescentes del rockero Kurt Cobain. La bipolaridad es un trastorno tan especial de la conducta y con tantas aristas, que algunos han planteado incluso la posibilidad de que antes que una enfermedad sea considerada un don, debido a la gran cantidad de artistas geniales que la han sufrido.

Book Alfredo Boulton

  • Author : Idurre Alonso
  • Publisher : Getty Publications
  • Release : 2023-07-18
  • ISBN : 1606068202
  • Pages : 290 pages

Download or read book Alfredo Boulton written by Idurre Alonso and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2023-07-18 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lavishly illustrated volume examines the work of the Venezuelan photographer and art historian Alfredo Boulton, one of the main intellectuals of Latin American modernity. Alfredo Boulton (1908–1995) is considered one of the most important champions of modern art in Venezuela and a key intellectual of twentieth-century modernism. He was a pioneer of modern photography, an art critic, a researcher and historian of Venezuelan art, a friend to many of the great artists and architects of the twentieth century, and an expert on the imagery of the heroes of his country’s independence. Yet, Boulton is shockingly underrecognized outside of his native land. The few exhibitions related to his work have focused exclusively on his photographic production; never has there been a project that looks at the full range of Boulton’s efforts, foregrounding his influence on the shaping of Venezuelan art. This volume addresses these lacunae by analyzing Boulton’s groundbreaking photographic practice, his central role in the construction of a modern national artistic canon, and his influence in formalizing and developing art history and criticism in Venezuela. Based on the extensive materials held in Boulton’s archive at the Getty Research Institute, Alfredo Boulton brings together essays by leading scholars in the field to offer a commanding, original perspective on his contributions to the formation of a distinctive modernity at home and beyond. This volume is published to accompany an exhibition on view at the Getty Research Institute at the Getty Center from August 29, 2023, to January 21, 2024.

Book Spanish New York Narratives 1898 1936

Download or read book Spanish New York Narratives 1898 1936 written by David Miranda-Barreiro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early decades of the twentieth century, New York caught the attention of Spanish writers. Many of them visited the city and returned to tell their experience in the form of a literary text. That is the case of Pruebas de Nueva York (1927) by Jose Moreno Villa (1887-1955), El crisol de las razas (1929) by Teresa de Escoriaza (1891-1968), Anticipolis (1931) by Luis de Oteyza (1883-1961) and La ciudad automatica (1932) by Julio Camba (1882-1962). In tune with similar representations in other European works, the image of New York given in these texts reflects the tensions and anxieties generated by the modernisation embodied by the United States. These authors project onto New York their concerns and expectations about issues of class, gender and ethnicity that were debated at the time, in the context of the crisis of Spanish national identity triggered by the end of the empire in 1898.

Book Avant Garde  Internationalism  and Politics

Download or read book Avant Garde Internationalism and Politics written by Andrea Giunta and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2007-07-16 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1960s were heady years in Argentina. Visual artists, curators, and critics sought to fuse art and politics; to broaden the definition of art to encompass happenings and assemblages; and, above all, to achieve international recognition for new, cutting-edge Argentine art. A bestseller in Argentina, Avant-Garde, Internationalism, and Politics is an examination of the 1960s as a brief historical moment when artists, institutions, and critics joined to promote an international identity for Argentina’s visual arts. The renowned Argentine art historian and critic Andrea Giunta analyzes projects specifically designed to internationalize Argentina’s art and avant-garde during the 1960s: the importation of exhibitions of contemporary international art, the sending of Argentine artists abroad to study, the organization of prize competitions involving prestigious international art critics, and the export of exhibitions of Argentine art to Europe and the United States. She looks at the conditions that made these projects possible—not least the Alliance for Progress, a U.S. program of “exchange” and “cooperation” meant to prevent the spread of communism through Latin America in the wake of the Cuban Revolution—as well as the strategies formulated to promote them. She describes the influence of Romero Brest, prominent art critic, supporter of abstract art, and director of the Centro de Artes Visuales del Instituto Tocuato Di Tella (an experimental art center in Buenos Aires); various group programs such as Nueva Figuración and Arte Destructivo; and individual artists including Antonio Berni, Alberto Greco, León Ferrari, Marta Minujin, and Luis Felipe Noé. Giunta’s rich narrative illuminates the contentious postwar relationships between art and politics, Latin America and the United States, and local identity and global recognition.
