Book Global Milton and Visual Art

Download or read book Global Milton and Visual Art written by Angelica Duran and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-03-18 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global Milton and Visual Art showcases the aesthetic appropriation and reinterpretation of the works and legend of the early modern English poet and politician John Milton in diverse eras, regions, and media: book illustrations, cinema, digital reworkings, monuments, painting, sculpture, shieldry, and stained glass. It innovates an inclusive approach to Milton’s literary art, especially his masterpiece Paradise Lost, in global contemporary aesthetics via intertextual and interdisciplinary relations. The fifteen purposefully-brief chapters, 103 illustrations, and 64 supplemental web-images reflect the great richness of the topics and the diverse experiences and expertise of the contributors. Part I: Panoramas, provides overviews and key contexts; Part II: Cameos offers different perspectives of the varied afterlives of the most widely-circulating illustrations of Paradise Lost, those by Gustave Doré; Part III: Textual Close-ups focuses on a rich variety of book illustrations, from centuries-old elite engravings to a twenty-first century graphic novel; and Part IV: A Prospect beyond Books, explores visual media outside of books that manifest powerful connections, direct and indirect, with Milton’s works and legend.

Book Clearly Art  Pilchuck s Glass Legacy

Download or read book Clearly Art Pilchuck s Glass Legacy written by Lloyd E. Herman and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1971 an extraordinary summer experiment in art education launched what is now the world's most famous school of glass, the Pilchuck Glass School, located in the forested foothills of the Cascade Mountains in Washington State. Since the school was founded by artist Dale Chihuly and art patrons John Hauberg and Anne Gould Hauberg, glass has become recognized as a legitimate medium in the visual arts. This publication documents the parallel evolution of artistic sophistication and technical virtuosity in glass with examples by the school's international faculty. It complements the national travelling exhibition curated by Lloyd E. Herman and organized by the Whatcom Museum of History and Art in Bellingham, Washington. The book traces the school's growth from a counter-culture summer glass camp, with impromptu tent structures and a glass furnace constructed by the first summer's students, through its evolution into a professional art school with a waiting list of prospective students. Photographs of the school and its programs over the years accompany color illustrations of 76 objects by 66 world renowned glass artists. Shown are works of art by early faculty members that exemplify the influence of pop art and the "funk" ceramics movement on glass art in the early 1970's, and examples of glass vessels, sculpture, flat glass and glass plate prints produced by faculty members to 1992. A bibliography and a list of faculty since 1971 add to the book's value to art collectors and scholars.

  • Pages : 80 pages

Download or read book American Glass written by Lloyd E. Herman and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glass is one of the world's oldest materials for art and, in America, one of the newest. In the United States in the last 30 years, glass has emerged as a vital component of America's visual arts. Glass, basically sand melted to a liquid with the consistency of honey, can be blown into fragile bubbles, cast into sculptural architectural components, fused, painted, carved, and engraved, to name only a few techniques in the glass artist's vocabulary. This survey includes recent examples of art in glass by 13 artists selected from more than a thousand in the United States. They follow no single trend or tradition but draw freely from the world and its visual history. Whether their art takes inspiration from Egyptian canopic jars, medieval stained-glass windows, or Venetian glass techniques, American artists working in glass use the world for their sketchbooks and are masters of their art.
