‎Aleksander Pluskowski (ed)‎ ‎Environment, Colonization, and the Baltic Crusader States. Terra Sacra I‎ ‎, Brepols, 2019 Paperback, xxviii + 548 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:189 b/w, 8 col., 41 tables b/w., 51 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503551326.‎ ‎Summary In the thirteenth century, crusading armies unleashed a relentless holy war against the pagan tribal groups of the Eastern Baltic, whose territories were conquered and reorganized into Christian states run by the Teutonic Order, bishops, and their cathedral chapters. Castles were built, towns established, and colonists encouraged to settle under the leadership of the new Christian theocracy. But the changes introduced alongside Christianity not only transformed the culture of eastern Baltic societies, but also had a profound and - for the Baltic tribes, who saw many aspects of the natural world as sacred - deeply significant impact on the local environment. This seminal period in the environmental history of north-eastern Europe has been the focus of the ERC-funded research programme, 'The Ecology of Crusading', which explored the physical and conceptual ecological transformations associated with warfare, colonization, and religious conversion. This is the first of two Terra Sacra volumes, which share the aim of changing our understanding of the environmental impact of crusading and colonization in northeastern Europe. The present volume provides a detailed inter-disciplinary comparison of the environmental transformations associated with the emergence of the crusader states of Livonia and Prussia. It draws on and integrates a range of archaeological, paleoenvironmental, historical, and cartographic sources in order to highlight the diverse impact of colonization and landscape reorganization that followed in the wake of the Baltic Crusades. The companion Terra Sacra volume complements this survey by presenting a number of case studies from across the eastern Baltic region.

‎Alessandro Palazzo, Michele Nicoletti (eds)‎ ‎Epidemics and Pandemics. Philosophical Perspectives‎ ‎, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, approx. 328 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:10 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503598925.‎ ‎Summary Epidemics, pandemics, contagion, immunity, social distance, zoonosis are just a few of the concepts that have become commonplace in the academic community and in everyday conversation since the outbreak of the Covid-19. This book aims to provide the reader with a philosophical guide to this conceptual vocabulary by investigating the meanings, implications, and history of words related to the current emergency of Covid-19. This book addresses the fundamental anthropological, ethical, and political issues that have come under the spotlight of the public debate (life and death, freedom and authority, fear and protection, poverty and access to medical care). In this context, particular attention is given to the conflict between the scientific discourse on the one hand, and irrational bias, misinformation and fake news on the other. The SARS-CoV-2 outbreak is only the latest episode in a long history of pandemics and epidemics that have constellated human history since its very beginning. Authoritative accounts have made some of these contagious plagues famous (Thucydides' pages immortalizing the Athenian epidemic of the 5th century B.C.; Boccaccio's description of the Black Death; Manzoni's depiction of the Plague ravaging 17th-century Milan). Because a full understanding of the present is not possible without historical inquiry, several contributions in the book explore debates about calamitous phenomena as documented in philosophical literature from Antiquity to 20th-century philosophy.

ISBN 9782503565811.‎ ‎Summary This volume is an introduction to eleven of the main medieval Eastern Christian historians used by modern scholars to reconstruct the events and personalities of the crusading period in the Levant. Each of the chapters examines one historian and their work(s), and first contains an introductory examination of their life, background and influences. This is then followed by a study of their work(s) relevant to the Crusades, including the reasons for writing, themes, and methodology. Such an approach will allow modern researchers to better understand the background and contexts to these texts, and thus to reconstruct the past in a more nuanced and detailed way. Written by eleven eminent scholars in their fields, and examining chronicles written in Armenian, Greek, Syriac, and Arabic, this book will be essential reading for anybody engaged in research on the Crusades, as well as Eastern Christian and Islamic history, and medieval historiography.

‎Alexandra Dardenay, Laurent Bricault (eds)‎ ‎Gods in the House. Anthropology of Roman Housing - II‎ ‎, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 368 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:39 b/w, 80 col., 4 tables b/w., Language(s):English, French. ISBN 9782503601694.‎ ‎Summary The archaeological excavations conducted from one end of the Mediterranean zone to the other have illuminated the place of gods in the ritual practices in the dwellings of the Graeco-Roman era. The discovery of multiple artefacts, dedicated spaces, and figurative paintings support new avenues of historical, anthropological, and social reflection with the aim of better understanding domestic religious practices in the polytheistic contexts of antiquity. This collective volume organizes those reflections around three axes. The first axis centres on identifying the deities that were favoured in domestic sanctuaries. Which gods are represented and which are not? The second axis concerns the interrelationships evident within domestic ritual spaces and sanctuaries. The third axis is dedicated to the anthropology of rituals. Lines of inquiry informed by anthropological, social, and phenomenological approaches are assuming ever-greater importance in scholarship on Antiquity. It is from this perspective that the authors explore the role that domestic ritual spaces play in shaping the lived environment.

‎Alex Peterson‎ ‎History and Pottery of a Middle Islamic Settlement in the Northwest Quarter of Jerash. Final Publications from the Danish-German Jerash Northwest Quarter Project V‎ ‎, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, xxviii + 246 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:331 b/w, 192 col., 3 tables b/w., 10 maps b/w, 1 maps color, Language: English. ISBN 9782503603353.‎ ‎Summary In 2015, the Danish-German Northwest Quarter Project working in Jerash uncovered a Middle Islamic farmstead. Subsequent excavations revealed that this settlement, far from marking a decline at the site, is in fact indicative of a broader active and dynamic rural community living within the ancient urban landscape of Jerash. This volume offers an in-depth focus on this Islamic settlement, with a particular focus on the ceramic material yielded by the site, which is here fully quantified and contextually analysed alongside historical sources. Through this approach, the author has reconstructed a new synthesis of Middle Islamic settlement history, shedding new light on the economic and social structures of a rural community in northern Jordan, as well as establishing a typology that can be used to refine the chronologies of Middle Islamic Jerash.

‎Alejandro Vergara-sharp‎ ‎Illuminating Women Artists- Clara Peeters‎ ‎, Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd, 2025 Hardcover, 128 pages, Illustrated. Text English, 25x20cm *New. ISBN 9781848225718.‎ ‎Clara Peeters was one of the most talented and creative among the early practitioners of still-life painting in Europe. This timely book sheds light on the limitations she encountered because of her gender and how she responded to them in her art, while also assessing her importance as a painter. This book serves to establish Clara Peeters, one of the most talented and creative among the early practitioners of still-life painting in Europe in the early 17th century, as a leader in her field. The book not only discusses the artist?s biography but also examines the historical and cultural context of Peeters? art, her artistry and the material culture reflected in her paintings. Part of the first generation of European artists to specialise in still-life painting, Peeters was in fact the only Flemish woman known to have focussed on this genre of painting in the early 17th century. She was also one of the few women to dedicate her professional life to painting in early modern Europe. This timely book sheds light on the limitations that Clara Peeters encountered because of her gender and how she responded to them in her art, while also assessing her importance as a painter of still-life.‎ Référence libraire : 66797	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Livres de ERIK TONEN BOOKS] 49,99 € Acheter

ISBN 9789464941401.‎ ‎Magnificent publication on the depiction of Paris by the French impressionists such as Monet, Cassatt, Renoir and Degas In 1867, Claude Monet painted three iconic views of Paris from the balcony of the Louvre, thus firing the starting shot of Impressionism. This book explores these groundbreaking works in detail, alongside a multitude of other Impressionist paintings and drawings. Experts from leading museums around the world show how Paul C zanne, Gustave Caillebotte, Mary Cassatt and many others also depicted Paris in the midst of a radical transformation. Their artworks transport us to the birth of the French capital as a modern metropolis. They grant us entry to the theatres, parks and boulevards of Haussmann?s Paris, where the bourgeoisie parade their new-found wealth. In a new world dominated by fashion and consumption, the graceful Parisienne emerges as the symbol of this vibrant world city. But behind the facade of light, beauty and romance, political unrest and revolution are in the air. This turbulent period is brought to life in this publication through original photographs, posters, letters and satirical prints. Published to accompany the exhibition New Paris: From Monet to Morisot at Kunstmuseum Den Haag from 15 February until 9 June 2025.‎ Référence libraire : 66542	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Livres de ERIK TONEN BOOKS] 29,95 € Acheter
‎Aleksander Panjek (ed)‎ ‎Integrated Peasant Economy in Central and Eastern Europe. A Comparative Approach‎ ‎, Brepols, 2024 Paperback, 264 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:30 tables b/w., 5 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503590042.‎ ‎Summary Income integration based on the peasants' engagement in non-agrarian sectors is a prominent and widespread feature in the history of the European countryside. While listing a multitude of activities outside the narrow scope of farm management aimed at self-consumption, prevailing interpretations emphasize how survival was the goal of peasant economies and societies. The "integrated peasant economy" is a new concept that considers the peasant economy as a comprehensive system of agrarian and non-agrarian activities, disclosing how peasants demonstrate agency, aspirations and the ability to proactively change and improve their economic and social condition. After having been successfully applied to the Alpine and Scandinavian areas, the book tests this innovative concept through a range of case studies on central and eastern European regions comprising Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Ukraine. By enhancing our knowledge on central and eastern Europe and questioning the assumption that these regions were "different", it helps overcome interpretive simplifications and common places, as well as the underrepresentation of the "eastern half" of Europe in scholarly literature on rural history. That's why the book represents a refreshing methodological contribution and a new insight into European rural history.

Alex Elaut, stadsgids en erfgoedkenner in de stad Antwerpen schrijft een boek over architect Jacques De Weerdt. Het is 80 jaar geleden dat hij overleed. Prachtige artnouveau huizen in zowel Antwerpen, Berchem als Borgerhout zijn van zijn hand, maar over de man zelf is weinig geweten. Elaut toont vier pareltjes in de stad die De Weerdt gebouwd heeft, in de hoop om meer informatie over hem te vinden. Honderd huizen in tien jaar; Maar wat weten we dan wel over hem? Wel Jacques De Weerdt, geboren in 1867, is eigenlijk een Mechelaar. Daar woonde zijn familie en ging hij ook naar school. Na tien jaar aan de academie gaat hij aan de slag als tekenaar bij de Belgische spoorwegen, wat hem naar stad Antwerpen leidt. Op tien jaar tijd zou hij wel honderd huizen in de stad hebben gebouwd, zegt Elaut. Over zijn eigen stijl zijn er al studies verschenen, maar informatie over zijn opdrachtgevers en medewerkers zijn er niet. Tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog vluchtte hij naar Rotterdam, maar wanneer hij terugkeert, bouwt hij nog weinig. Was zijn inspiratie op? Was hij ziek? We weten het niet, zegt Elaut. Het enige wat ik nog kan zeggen is dat hij in een psychiatrie verbleef en in 1942 in Boechout is gestorven. In Antwerpen had hij twee broers en een dochter, die trouwens ook in een psychatrisch centrum terechtkwam, en ook in Mechelen had hij nog familie.? Familieweetjes Zelf stopte Elaut al briefjes in de bussen bij de huizen waarvan hij weet dat ze door De Weerdt gebouwd zijn. Hij kreeg al veel positieve reacties om foto's te komen nemen voor het herdenkingsboek. Ik kreeg ook al veel hulp van Marcel Windey, een heemkundige uit Deurne die al veel opzoekwerk heeft gedaan. Maar er kan altijd info bij. Daarom zoek ik mensen die eventueel een foto of portret hebben van de familie De Weerdt, Zenner, Verellen, Wauters en Bocken.‎ Référence libraire : 59636	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Livres de ERIK TONEN BOOKS] 28,00 € Acheter

ISBN 9782503601816.‎ ‎Summary Although much work has been done in the field of Renaissance Studies, at present there is no book which offers a comparative overview of the linguistic interaction between Renaissance Italy and the wider world. The present volume is intended to fill this void, representing the first-ever collection of essays that deal with multiple types of language contact and cross-cultural exchanges in and with respect to Renaissance Italy (1300?1600). We bring diverse disciplinary perspectives together: literary scholars, historians, and linguists with different regional expertise; we argue for multilingualism and language contact as products of a period of dynamic change which cannot be fully grasped through a single framework. The contributions present a variety of case-studies by often cross-fertilising their approaches with other disciplinary lenses. This book aims to provide a comprehensive picture of a truly global Renaissance Italy where languages, textual traditions, and systems of knowledge from different geographical areas either combined or clashed. It takes a fresh approach to the history of late medieval and early modern Italy by focusing on East/West linguistic and cultural encounters, transmission of ideas and texts, multilingualism in literature (various genres and various forms of multilingualism), translation practices, reception/adaptation of new knowledge, transculturalism and literary exchanges, and the relationship between languages and language varieties.

ISBN 9782503584928.‎ ‎Summary 'Latin in Byzantium' explores the linguistic competence, cultural identity, and transmission of Latin texts in the 'noua Roma' between the fourth and the ninth centuries. Drawing together texts from a number of fields (e.g., law, grammar, religion, and tactics) and across a range of different forms (e.g., palaeographic, epigraphic, and papyrological), this important project provides scholars for the first time with an in-depth knowledge of both the Latin-speaking milieux in Byzantium, and of the contexts in which Latin was used. Crucially, the ancient sources studied in this volume are also analysed in their broader political and sociological context, providing rich material for study across different disciplines and making this volume an important resource for closing the gaps between literary and non-literary texts, history, and philology.

ISBN 9781905375882.‎ ‎Summary These two volumes comprise the first English translation and critical edition of the extant letters of the Neapolitan painter and satirist Salvator Rosa (1615-1673). Presented in a revised Italian transcription and a complete English translation, the letters are accompanied by extensive historical notes, a philological apparatus, a comprehensive index, appendices, and photographs of the manuscripts. A number of previously unpublished letters also appear here for the first time. Unique among early modern primary documents for their quantity and exceptional for their candour, Rosa's letters are not only a fascinating and intimate chronicle of the artist himself but also an invaluable record of the activities and aspirations of his contemporaries,?offering useful insights into historical persons, ideas and events. An indispensable early modern primary source, comparable in significance to the letters of Michelangelo, Nicolas Poussin or Peter Paul Rubens, Rosa's letters here receive a long-overdue analysis and an English translation that seeks to make more accessible their contents, frequently impenetrable to even native Italian speakers.‎ Référence libraire : 66036	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Livres de ERIK TONEN BOOKS] 250,00 € Acheter

‎Alessandro Mulieri, Serena Masolini, Jenny Pelletier (eds)‎ ‎Marsilius of Padua. Between History, Politics, and Philosophy‎ ‎, Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 440 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9782503601335.‎ ‎Summary Marsilius of Padua (c. 1275-c. 1342) was one of the most influential and controversial political thinkers of the Middle Ages. He is best known for his seminal text Defensor Pacis (1324) in which he attacks the papal theory of plenitude of power and defends an idea of political community based on the strict separation of political and religious authority. Marsilius' work lies at the crossroads of different disciplines, ranging from political philosophy to civil and canon law, to medicine. Indeed, he presents an original synthesis of several contemporary themes and traditions such as Aristotelianism, Augustinianism, the debate on Franciscan property, the communal tradition of the Italian city-states, ecclesiology, medicine, and astrology. This edited volume analyses the life and thought of Marsilius of Padua in his own context and beyond. Gathering many of the leading experts in Marsilian studies across different national and linguistic traditions working today, this volume has two main goals. First, it aims to bring together experts who come from distinct fields in order to investigate the many branches of knowledge present in Defensor Pacis without losing sight of Marsilius as a comprehensive theorist. Second, the volume aims to shed new light on one of the most neglected aspects in Marsilian studies: the Marsilian influence, i.e., his impact in the early modern period during the Renaissance, the Reformation and the Counter-Reformation, up to twentieth century.

Illustrated. Fine. ISBN 9789004270930.‎ ‎The Low Countries are generally considered to be the land of painting. Consequently, sculpture, especially that of the 16th century, has been insufficiently explored. In Moving Sculptures Aleksandra Lipi?ska presents a little-known chapter of the history of Netherlandish sculpture: the serial production of small-scale alabaster reliefs, altarpieces and statuettes in the workshops of Mechelen and Antwerp between c. 1525 and 1650. She gives the reader an insight into the rules of this craft, the specificity of the material, and the marketing methods employed. But the innovative element of this study lies in the fact that Lipi?ska analyses the phenomenon from the perspective of its distant recipients in Central and Northern Europe on the basis of works largely unknown to the broader public.At the Source: Production of the Alabaster Sculpture in the Southern Netherlands 1 Alabaster as a Sculpture Material 17 2 Alabaster in Netherlandish Sculpture from the Late Gothic to the Early Baroque 44 3 Serial Production of Alabaster Sculpture in Mechelen 96 4 The Spread of Alabaster Sculpture from the Low Countries 124 Part 2 At the Destination: Southern Netherlandish Alabaster Sculpture in Central and Northern Europe 5 Altarpieces 143 6 Tombs and Epitaphs 205 7 Exhibits of Real and ?Imagined?

ISBN 9789059974159.‎ ‎NICOLAES GILLIS (Antwerpen 1593 - Haarlem 1630) behoort tot de eerste beoefenaars van het zelfstandige stilleven. Over zijn leven was tot nog toe niet veel bekend, behalve dat hij uit Antwerpen kwam en in Haarlem werkzaam was. Nieuw onderzoek wijst op een gedegen leertijd in Antwerpen, waarna Gillis furore maakte als pionier van het Haarlemse voedsel- en bloemstilleven. In Antwerpen heeft Gillis veel geleerd van Osias Beert; in Haarlem was de kruisbestuiving met Floris van Dijck van belang. De gezamenlijke invloed van Gillis en Van Dijck zou zich uitstrekken naar volgende generaties stillevenschilders. Het oeuvre dat Nicolaes Gillis heeft nagelaten is niet erg groot. Dit boek laat echter zien dat het veelzijdiger en invloedrijker is geweest dan voorheen werd aangenomen. Gillis was niet alleen een schakel tussen Antwerpen en Haarlem, maar ook een echte vernieuwer. Deze eerste monografie met catalogue raisonn is het resultaat van uitgebreid kunsthistorisch onderzoek en speurwerk in archieven. Behalve een overvloedige bron van informatie, vormt het boek een terecht eerbetoon aan Nicolaes Gillis. Drs. Alexander Thijs (1980) heeft na een carri re als tandarts zijn liefde voor Oude Meesters verder ontwikkeld met oog voor historische context, herkomstonderzoek, symboliek en schildertechnieken. Als zelfstandig onderzoeker bestudeerde hij voor de tentoonstelling Ode aan Antwerpen (Utrecht, Museum Catharijneconvent, 2023) een schilderij van Erasmus II Quellinus, Rubens? laatste grote leerling en medewerker. Dit leidde tot een bijdrage aan de tentoonstellingscatalogus Van Antwerpen naar Amsterdam.‎ Référence libraire : 66757	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Livres de ERIK TONEN BOOKS] 49,90 € Acheter

ISBN 9782503583990.‎ ‎Summary It is clear that Renaissance artists and their patrons were interested in Ravenna's buildings and their decorations, both before Vasari's negative pronouncements and after them. Contemporary European travelers and diarists have left descriptions of the city's heritage, by then in ruinous condition. What happens if we reinsert this corpus of Ravenna's treasures and their multiple imbrications into our histories of Renaissance art? How can our narratives change if we trace and study an almost forgotten, albeit rich and articulated series of intersections between Ravenna's splendors and ambitious works of art and architecture from early modern Italy? We have ignored a series of visual engagements and imaginative plays with Ravenna's forms, materials, and iconographies, folding the past into the present and the present into the past. These instances of creative imitations and recreations can best be recovered if we focus on the Renaissance production and humanists' accounts of the city's treasures, that is, works in various media and size, to map out an extended dimension of early modern visual culture.

ISBN 9782503595450.‎ ‎Summary The Roman conquest of the Iberian peninsula, a land already inhabited by peoples who were characterized by cultural, ethnic, and social diversity, was one of the longest and most complex colonial processes to have occurred in the Roman world. Different political entities saw integration and interaction taking place at different speeds and via different mechanisms, and these differences had a profound impact on the development of religious dynamics and cultural change across the peninsula. This edited volume draws together contributions from a number of experts in the field in order to deepen our understanding of religious phenomena in Hispania ? in particular cult, rituals, mechanisms, and spaces ? and in doing so, to offer new insights into processes of cultural and social change, and the impact of conquest and colonialism. The chapters gathered here identify how forms of religious interaction occurred at different levels and scales, and explore the ways in which religion and religious practices underpinned the construction, development, and renegotiation of different identities. Through this approach they shed important light on the crucial role of cultic practices in defining cultural and social identity as Iberia's provincial communities were drawn into the Roman world.

‎Alexandre Orloff, Dimitri Chvidkovski‎ ‎Saint-Pétersbourg - L’architecture des tsars‎ ‎Saint-Pétersbourg a fêté en 2003 le tricentenaire de sa fondation par le tsar Pierre le Grand. Sa création, qui correspond à l'émergence du Siècle des Lumières, est un défi lancé à la Nature. Née d'un marécage glacé, la construction de la ville apparaît comme une prouesse humaine. Saint-Pétersbourg, la ville de la culture impériale, possède le plus grand nombre de palais de toute la Russie. Cet ouvrage propose une étude rigoureuse de ce patrimoine architectural unique. Les constructions de chaque tsar ou impératrice (Pierre le Grand, Anna Ire, Elisabeth Ire, Catherine la Grande, Paul Ier, Alexandre Ier et Nicolas Ier, Alexandre II, Alexandre III, Nicolas II) sont analysées, décrites, révélées à travers le beau regard photographique d'Alexandre Orloff.

Illustrations: 140, Width: 170 cm x Height: 230 cm . ISBN 9789058678720.‎ ‎Since the late 1960s Peter Downsbrough (1940) has been an important figure in contemporary art, associated with major international art movements such as minimal art, conceptual art, and visual poetry. In his artistic work he explores various fields including sculpture, architecture, books, film, and photography. This book provides, for the first time, a profound insight into Downsbrough's diverse and complex use of photography within his artistic work over the last 40 years. A substantial essay by Alexander Streitberger discusses the artist's photographic work - which includes single prints, series, postcards, collages, and books - within its aesthetic and historical context. Streitberger relates Downsbrough's work to fundamental issues of photographic practice and discourse such as the photograph as document, the representation of urban space, space-time relations, collage as an aesthetic and political means of expression, the relationship between still and moving image, and the context of presentation. The rich image material - some of which has never been published before - is arranged by the artist himself in order to create a fertile exchange between the topics of the text and his own intervention. Concluding with an exclusive interview with the artist, this book offers a real dialogue between artistic practice and theoretical reflexion.‎ Référence libraire : 29796	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Livres de ERIK TONEN BOOKS] 34,50 € Acheter

‎Alejandro Vergara-Sharp‎ ‎What is Quality in Art? A Meditation Based on European Paintings from the 15th to the 18th Centuries"‎ ‎, Hannibal Books, 2024 Hardcover, 127 pages, ENG. edition, 220 x 145 mm, NEW, illustr. in color / b/w, Quadrichromie. ISBN 9789464941197.‎ ‎In-depth art-historical reflection on value judgments in art by one of Europe?s leading curators "This is a necessary book. The concept of quality is key in the history of art, and often little understood." ? Miguel Falomir, Director, Museo del Prado "That this is a legitimate question, even a necessary one, is argued by Vergara in a pleasurable manner, with the pace and attitude of a peripatetic thinker. There is something here that reminds one of Montaigne or Stendhal." ? Antonio Mu oz Molina, El Pa s "This wonderful and wise book made me look at the artwork without intimidation or any confusion. It is a great pleasure to be guided by the experienced eye of Alejandro Vergara." ? Olga Tokarczuk, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature Throughout history, human beings have excelled at creating art of the highest quality. Aristotle wrote that Homer ?surpassed all others? while Pliny the Elder referred to ?masterpieces that we never tire of admiring?. Vel zquez distinguished between portraits ?made with art? and those that were not. What did they all mean exactly? And what do we mean when we say that a work of art is good, of high quality? This book is an attempt to explain this central question, which remains surprisingly unexplored. Alejandro Vergara-Sharp argues that ?a deep knowledge of the history of art provides us with the tools to approach this issue objectively?. He then invites the reader to share with him a Socratic voyage of discovery, gradually unveiling arguments that can assist us in understanding this elusive and crucial concept. Alejandro Vergara-Sharp (b. 1960, Washington DC) is Senior Curator of Flemish and Northern European Paintings at the Museo Nacional del Prado in Madrid.‎ Référence libraire : 63755	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Livres de ERIK TONEN BOOKS] 32,50 € Acheter
‎Alexandra Baudelot, Clara Schulmann, Georgina Jackson, Aisha Sasha John, Lauren A. Wright, Kathy Noble‎ ‎Zarba Lonsa, _0_0__0, Mesonya / Katinka Bock‎ ‎BE - , MER. Paper Kunsthalle, 2018 Softcover, (silver on coated linen) / 192 pages / 28 x 21,6 cm,Languages EN, FR. / FINE ISBN 9789492321701.‎ ‎This publication forms the catalogue of three solo-exhibitions of artist Katinka Bock in Paris, London and Toronto that were linked to the work ?Zarba Lonsa? which she created during her residency at Les Laboratoires d?Aubervilliers in Paris in 2016. Particularly interested by the atmosphere of the Quatre-Chemins district where Les Laboratories is located, the artist went to meet merchants to initiate a relationship with them based on the exchange of one of her works for an object of their shop. This gesture was the starting point of a creative process that has unfolded in several forms ? sculptures, installation, films and photos. Renewing the process of this exchange-based relationship in a specific urban context for a new production of works and photographs, a second edition of the project took shape under the title _0_0__0 in June 2017 at Mercer Union in Toronto. To complete the series, a last edition took place at the Siobhan Davies Dance in London under the title Mesonya/ in Fall 2017‎ Référence libraire : 53698	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Livres de ERIK TONEN BOOKS] 38,99 € Acheter
