Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Western Art and the New Era: An Introduction to Modern Art Art has now been amongst us for almost two decades, the average public finds it difficult to see any con nection between it and what they consider art. The Societe Anonyme Inc. (museum of Modern Art) in New York, which was founded to promote the serious expression of the serious study of serious men in the art world of today, became very conscious of this confusion. I was therefore asked to give a series of lectures to help the public to a clearer understanding. Many requests have come to me to repeat them, not only in America but in the Orient as well. It seemed, therefore, advisable to rearrange them in book form, to reach a larger public. If I can help anyone to a clearer understanding of what art is, to have them realize that it has nothing to do with personal taste, is not alone the mastery of technique or a repetition of the art of the past, but that art to be alive must be creative, then my hours of labor will not have been in vain. My desire is to make the present generation realize that art is not dead, can never die while man is, but is constantly in the making.

Download or read book A New History of Western Art written by Koenraad Jonckheere and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2022-10-15 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A radical re-examination of 2,500 years of European art, deconstructing and demystifying its long history from ancient to present How has art evolved from the pursuit of the 'ideal' human form to a black square on a white canvas? Why is a banana duct-taped to a wall worth more on the art market than a beautiful seventeenth-century landscape? By taking art for what it actually is -- a piece of stone or wood, a sheet of paper with some lines drawn on it, a painted canvas -- this lively and accessible account shows how seemingly meaningless objects can be transformed into celebrated works of art. Breaking with conventional notions of artistic genius, Koenraad Jonckheere explores how stories and emotions give meaning to objects, and why changing historical circumstances result in such shifting opinions over time. Tracing its story from ancient times to present, A New History of Western Art reframes the evolution of European art and radically reshapes our understanding of art history.

Download or read book Russian and Soviet Views of Modern Western Art written by Ilia Dorontchenkov and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the first Modernist exhibitions in the late 1890s to the Soviet rupture with the West in the mid-1930s, Russian artists and writers came into wide contact with modern European art and ideas. Introducing a wealth of little-known material set in an illuminating interpretive context, this sourcebook presents Russian and Soviet views of Western art during this critical period of cultural transformation. The writings document complex responses to these works and ideas before the Russians lost contact with them almost entirely. Many of these writings have been unavailable to foreign readers and, until recently, were not widely known even to Russian scholars. Both an important reference and a valuable resource for classrooms, the book includes an introductory essay and shorter introductions to the individual sections.
Download or read book A History of the Western Art Market written by Titia Hulst and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-04-28 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first sourcebook to trace the emergence and evolution of art markets in the Western economy, framing them within the larger narrative of the ascendancy of capitalist markets. Selected writings from across academic disciplines present compelling evidence of art's inherent commercial dimension and show how artists, dealers, and collectors have interacted over time, from the city-states of Quattrocento Italy to the high-stakes markets of postmillennial New York and Beijing. This approach casts a startling new light on the traditional concerns of art history and aesthetics, revealing much that is provocative, profound, and occasionally even comic. This volume's unique historical perspective makes it appropriate for use in college courses and postgraduate and professional programs, as well as for professionals working in art-related environments such as museums, galleries, and auction houses. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact.

Download or read book Pentecostal Aesthetics written by Steven Felix and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-02-04 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pentecostals have not sufficiently worked out a distinctively Pentecostal philosophy of art and aesthetics. In Pentecostal Aesthetics: Theological Reflections in a Pentecostal Philosophy of Art and Aesthetics, with a foreword by Amos Yong, Steven Félix-Jäger corrects this by reflecting theologically on art and aesthetics from a global Pentecostal perspective, particularly through a pneumatic Pentecostal lens. Félix-Jäger contends that a Pentecostal philosophy of art and aesthetics must comply with the global, experiential, and pneumatocentric nature of the Pentecostal movement. Such a philosophy can be ontologically grounded in a relativistic theory of art. Theological reflections concerning the nature and purpose of art must then be sensitive to the ontological foundations secured thereof. In this fashion, Pentecostals can gain ample insight about the Spirit’s work in today’s contemporary artworld.
