Finding Caspicara
Author: Susan Verdi Webster
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 1477329722
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
"Caspicara was the most renowned sculptor of the eighteenth-century Andean world. Yet many works that are attributed to this Indigenous artist cannot be firmly documented as he is nearly absent in traditional archival records. Susan Webster seeks to analyze not only the visual imagery and material culture of his many works, but she also seeks to lay the foundation for understanding how scholars can revive the life and records of artists and other historical figures--many of whom were Indigenous in this period--with different methodologies. By cultivating artistic theory, popular religious devotion, and specific styles of sculpture, Webster's examination of the labor and workshop practices of this period contextualize the extensive commercial networks that existed within Quito and emanated beyond it. Webster explores the reason why authors constructed an almost completely fictional life story and canon for this artist that continued for two centuries, how this story fueled the agendas and goals of these authors in melding the colonial past with a newly independent country that could measure itself against western European culture, and as a potent story for tourists. She then considers the ways in which Caspicara's work was at the center of debates of sculpture versus painting in Quito. These debates and their development in the city also add context to notions of authorship, and how it was documented (or not). By exploring the professional world where he worked, Webster's analysis of Indigenous sculptors and their family networks of labor and apprenticeship in the arts allow us to understand the changing workforce and materials for sculptures. This analysis also reveals what day-to-day life may have been for Caspicara, and how this routine informed the artistic choices available to him. Archival materials indirectly offer glimpses into how patrons regarded Caspicara and his work, and how the work of others later embellished or altered his original vision. Throughout the chapters, visuality, materials, and reception challenge the typical obsession of art historians, museum curators, and auction houses in their hunger to attribute authorship in ways that increase the value, both for prestige and monetary reasons, and in ways that end up obscuring authorship and intent"--

Languages : en
Pages : 86
Book Description
"El Premio de Ensayo Crítico invitaba a pensar problemas que recorrieran el arte argentino durante los últimos años, también sobre un corpus de obras o exhibiciones realizadas por artistas argentinos en los últimos quince años; estas eran unas proposiciones abiertas que no podría haber emprendido sin meditar antes sobre otras variables que exceden al arte e implican algo más grande. Algo que indecorosamente podría ser llamado mundo. Quería pensar a partir de aquella noche que la escatología cibernética había bautizado Y2K, es decir desde el inicio del siglo. También, percibiendo como André Breton que "la sensibilidad jamás cambia radicalmente", otra cuestión disparó este ensayo: ¿cómo se filtra la modernidad en el arte contemporáneo? Una modernidad entendida como un sistema heterotópico, integrado por manifiestos, vanguardias y retaguardias, técnicas, voluntades subversivas."

Great Art Critics (1750-2000)
Author: J. Pedro Lorente
Publisher: Mimesis International
ISBN: 886977256X
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
The art world has become a point of contention within a range of debates and yet, strangely enough, while art criticism has been discussed at length, very little is said about art critics. Following in the footsteps of Lionello Venturi’s History of Art Criticism, in the current volume Lorente provides an updated reassessment of the great art critics from the Enlightenment down to the turn of the millennium. Conceived as a didactic handbook with a recommended bibliography at the end of each chapter, this concise work tells the history of a profession in permanent crisis, while also paying homage to its most infl uential practitioners in different cultural contexts.

Alfredo Boulton
Author: Idurre Alonso
Publisher: Getty Publications
ISBN: 1606068199
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
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.
