‎ATLAS OF CONTEMPORARY ART FOR USE BY EVERYONE.‎

‎Grand-Hornu, Musee des Arts Contemporains, 2007 Hardcover, 400 pages, ENG, 350 x 220 x 40 mm,in Fine condition, illustrated in colour / b/w ISBN 9782930368214.‎

‎Using the format of a geographical atlas, the aim of this educational tool is to develop the interest of the public for contemporary art and to initiate dialogue between this art and other disciplines such as sciences, sociology, politics, etc. The book combines series of colour plates giving numerous historical, thematic and iconographic viewpoints with instructive texts - a mosaic of texts that take their inspiration from numerous quotes by artists, scientist and intellectuals, as well as encyclopaedia definitions, art reviews and short biographies. This English bilingual atlas, an initiative of the publishing section of the Museum of Contemporary Arts of Grand-Hornu (MAC's), compiled by Denis Gielen and with a preface by Laurent Busine, will be available in bookshops in spring 2007. One of the goals of any author of an atlas is probably - on occasions - to survey the world in order to better explore it, whether he or she is a geographer, historian, hiker, philosopher, amateur or art collector. Seeing, naming and discerning the ways of the world is just as imperative as seeking to define their meanings: some are diverse and unpredictable, others are manifold and disordered. This appears to be particularly true of contemporary art, in the sense that it confronts us with statements about a world to which we belong in the same way as the artist, in other words in a non-finite time. This book presents an alternation of illustrations, texts and synopses whose images and imaginative concepts all refer to one other. It is open to a multiplicity of inter-pretations, inviting confrontations and the discovery of similarities, relationships and analogies between works of art and various subjects of thought. To take stock of the field of contemporary art is to understand the movements and currents of which it is formed, but it also involves exploring the paths that interweave among them. Denis Gielen compiles facts, stories, art works and intentions, abiding by laws which, although they may not be universal, are nevertheless able to serve as our guide as we - author and reader - roam together along the meandering paths of creation, following the trails which unite the works and visions of our contemporaries. Thought and emotion carve out a sinuous and curious path here, even though this book is in principle open to the pursuit of all kinds of journeys. The Atlas of Contemporary Art can therefore be used by everyone, for it rejects no one. New book.‎

‎Vincent Willem van Gogh - (30 March 1853 ? 29 July 1890) was a Dutch post-Impressionist painter whose work had far-reaching influence on 20th-century art. His paintings include portraits, self portraits, landscapes, still lifes, olive trees and cypresses, wheat fields and sunflowers. He was largely ignored by critics until after his early death in 1890. The only substantial exhibitions held during his lifetime were showcases in Paris and Brussels. The first published full-length article came in 1890, when Albert Aurier described him as a Symbolist. The widespread and popular realisation of his significance in the history of modern art did not begin until his adoption by the Fauves and German Expressionists in the mid-1910s. Vincent van Gogh was born to upper middle class parents and spent his early adulthood working for a firm of art dealers before travelling to The Hague, London and Paris, after which he taught in England at Isleworth and Ramsgate. Although he drew as a child, he did not paint until his late twenties; most of his best-known works were completed during the last two years of his life. He was deeply religious as a younger man and aspired to be a pastor and from 1879 worked as a missionary in a mining region in Belgium where he sketched people from the local community. His first major work was 1885's The Potato Eaters, from a time when his palette mainly consisted of sombre earth tones and showed no sign of the vivid colouration that distinguished his later paintings. In March 1886, he relocated to Paris and discovered the French Impressionists. Later, he moved to the south of France and was influenced by the region's strong sunlight. His paintings grew brighter in colour, and he developed the unique and highly recognizable style that became fully realized during his stay in Arles in 1888. In just over a decade, he produced more than 2,100 artworks, including around 860 oil paintings and more than 1,300 watercolours, drawings, sketches and prints. After years of anxiety and frequent bouts of mental illness he died aged 37 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The extent to which his mental health affected his painting has been widely debated. Despite a widespread tendency to romanticize his ill health, art historians see an artist deeply frustrated by the inactivity and incoherence wrought through illness. His late paintings show an artist at the height of his abilities, completely in control, and according to art critic Robert Hughes, "longing for concision and grace".‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 1995 Paperback, 284 p., + 6 ill., 160 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503503158.‎

‎Although Victorine influence in Scandinavia has already received a certain amount of scholarly attention, this is the first study consecrated to the Old Norse-Icelandic translation of De arrha animae, a spiritual work of Hugh of Saint-Victor. This translation is preserved in three Icelandic manuscripts from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. The first part of the book examines the translation and its context, particularly in connection with the transmission of Victorine thought and spirituality. Retracing Scandinavian ecclesiastical history, Victorine influence is seen to have been of particular importance in the Norwegian ecclesiastical milieu of the twelfth century and also to some extent in the milieu of the Norwegian royal court in the thirteenth century. An examination of the manuscript tradition allows the manuscript of the translation to be connected with other manuscripts containing texts written for the Norwegian court during the thirteenth century. Even if the translation respects the main divisions of the original Latin text, it is interspersed with interpolations and glosses that modify to some extent the content of the original. An examination of the vocabulary of the translation reveals unexpected juridical connotations and, in addition, brings out affinities with other Old Norse texts, original texts as well as translations, such as Agrip, Barlaams ok Josaphats saga and the Konungs skuggsja or Speculum regale. In order to deepen the reader's appreciation of the literary and social background of the translation, the life and works of the Icelandic magistrate Haukr Erlendsson are examined against the background of the cultural history of thirteenth century Norway. Haukr Erlendsson made himself a career at the Norwegian court in the beginning of the fourteenth century, and it is to him that we owe the principal manuscript of the translation. The second part consists of a critical edition of the Old Norse text accompanied by a Latin text prepared by the Hugo-von-Sankt-Viktor-Institut at Frankfurt. The epilogue of the Old Norse translation is included in an appendix. This epilogue contains passages which are apparently borrowed from the Didascalion of Hugh of Saint-Victor. The appendix also includes a letter addressed by the Victorine archbishop Thorir to a number of Icelandic chieftains in 1211, among them the celebrated poet and historian Snorri Sturluson, author of the Edda and of Heimskringla. Si l'influence victorine en Scandinavie a deja recu l'attention des chercheurs, voici la premiere etude consacree a la traduction norroise (ancien-norvegienne / ancien-islandaise) d'un opuscule spirituel de Hugues de Saint-Victor, le De arrha animae, conservee dans trois manuscrits islandais du 14e et 15e siecles. Dans la premiere partie du livre, l'auteur se consacre a l'etude de la traduction et de son contexte du point de vue de la transmission de la pensee et de la spiritualite victorine. Retracant d'abord les grandes lignes de l'histoire ecclesiastique scandinave, il determine les manifestations de l'influence victorine dans le milieu ecclesiastique du 12e siecle et dans le milieu royal du 13e siecle. L'examen de la tradition manuscrite permet de rapprocher les manuscrits de la traduction a d'autres manuscrits contenant des textes ecrits pour la cour norvegienne au 13e siecle. Si la traduction, bien que souvent condensee, respecte les grandes divisions du texte latin, elle se trouve entrecoupee d'interpolations et de gloses, modifiant dans certains aspects le contenu de l'original. L'examen du vocabulaire de la traduction revele des connotations juridiques inattendues et montre en outre des affinites avec d'autres textes norrois, traduits et originaux, comme l'Agrip, la Barlaams ok Josaphats saga, et le Konungs skuggsja ou Speculum regale. Sur le fond du mouvement culturel dans la monarchie norvegienne du 13e siecle, qui englobe egalement la vie et l'oeuvre du magistrat islandais Haukur Erlendsson qui fit carriere a la cour norvegienne au debut du 14e siecle et auquel on doit le manuscrit principal de la traduction, l'etude du contexte litteraire et social de la traduction est developpee et approfondie. Dans la seconde partie on trouve l'edition critique de la traduction norroise, accompagnee d'un texte latin semi-critique prepare par le 'Hugo-von-Sankt-Viktor-Institut' a Francfort. En appendice sont publies l'epilogue de la traduction norroise, comportant des passages empruntes au Didascalicon de Hugues de Saint-Victor et une lettre que l'archeveque victorin Thore adressa a quelques chefs islandais en 1211 parmi lesquels figure le celebre poete et historien Snorri Sturluson, auteur de l'Edda et de la Heimskringla.

‎Statt sich der grossen Gemalde und Skulpturen, die Lupertz' Werk pragen, zu widmen, stellt dieser Band die Zeichnungen in den Vordergrund. Wer genau hinsieht, dem fallt auf, dass diese zeichnerischen Arbeiten mit zum Schonsten gehoren, was wir von Markus Lupertz kennen lernen durfen. Das oft Grobe und Heroische, die bewusst zugefugte Verstummelung oder Antikisierung seiner ? grossen Werke? fehlt hier, das Formenrepertoire scheint eher unmittelbar aus der Hand gekommen zu sein. Und auch die Bozzetti besitzen eine im korperlichen Mass verankerte Anschaulichkeit, die so selten zu finden ist. Zeichnung und Skulptur fuhren einen intimen Dialog, der mitunter praziser uber die innere Spannung des Werkes von Markus Lupertz Auskunft erteilt, als es andere seiner Werke vielleicht tun wollen. Insofern ist Andrea Madesta in ihrer Auswahl ein ganz eigener besonders ein aktualisierter, Blick auf die Arbeiten Markus Lupertz' gelungen.‎

‎Denken over vertalen verscheen voor het eerst in 2004. Een echt overzicht van de vertaalbeschouwing in de breedste zin van het woord bestond toen nog niet. Dit tekstboek voorzag met succes in deze behoefte en beleeft nu een tweede druk. Het denken over vertalen staat nooit stil en deze tweede druk is dan ook hernieuwd en grondig aangevuld. Het boek kent drie zwaartepunten: geschiedenis & beschrijving, kritiek & methodiek en reflectie & theorie. De eerdere selectie, waarmee de samenstellers zo veel mogelijk verschillende standpunten wilden aanbieden, is uitgebreid met essays van onder anderen Luise von Flotow, Michaela Wolf en Maria Tymoczko. Hierdoor waaiert het perspectief nu nog breder uit; de vernieuwing is mede gebaseerd op de ervaringen en wensen van de vele gebruikers van het tekstboek. Denken over vertalen is een mix van praktische en theoretische reflectie, met teksten die van cultureel belang zijn en daadwerkelijk in het onderwijs of anderszins kunnen worden ingezet, in een gedachtewisseling of debat, in een vertaalatelier, workshop of seminar. De teksten liggen klaar om grondig besproken, geanalyseerd en bekritiseerd te worden.‎

‎Adam Elsheimer (1578-1610) ist in der Weltgeschichte der Malerei immer noch ein grosser Unbekannter - zumindest fur das breite Publikum. Dabei hat sein schmales Ouvre - 49 auf kleine Kupfertafeln gemalte Olbilder, wenige Gouachen, Zeichnungen und Druckgraphiken - die Kunst seiner Zeit und spaterer Jahrhunderte nachhaltig verandert. Unter Malerkollegen, Sammlern und Kunstsinnigen waren seine Bilderfindungen schon zu Lebzeiten Legende. Vor allem seine Nachtstucke - darunter die 31 x 41 cm kleine Flucht nach Agypten - eroffneten den Zeitgenossen Galileis einen neuen, zugleich poetischen und naturwissenschaftlich fundierten Blick auf die Welt und den Sternenhimmel. Die kleinen Bilder, in denen sich Malkunst mit fruhen astronomischen Kenntnissen vereinen, wurden zu Wegbereitern der grossen idealen Landschaftskompositionen eines Claude Lorrain und wirkten bis zu Caspar David Friedrich in der deutschen Romantik nach.Keith Andrews' reich bebilderte Monographie mit Werkverzeichnis, nach wie vor ein Standardwerk der Kunstgeschichte, ist jetzt als leicht verkleinerte Studienausgabe erhaltlich.‎
