Toward a Geography of Art
Author: Thomas DaCosta Kaufmann
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226133119
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 512
Book Description
Art history traditionally classifies works of art by country as well as period, but often political borders and cultural boundaries are highly complex and fluid. Questions of identity, policy, and exchange make it difficult to determine the "place" of art, and often the art itself results from these conflicts of geography and culture. Addressing an important approach to art history, Thomas DaCosta Kaufmann's book offers essays that focus on the intricacies of accounting for the geographical dimension of art history during the early modern period in Europe, Latin America, and Asia. Toward a Geography of Art presents a historical overview of these complexities, debates contemporary concerns, and completes its exploration with a diverse collection of case studies. Employing the author's expertise in a variety of fields, the book delves into critical issues such as transculturation of indigenous traditions, mestizaje, the artistic metropolis, artistic diffusion, transfer, circulation, subversion, and center and periphery. What results is a foundational study that establishes the geography of art as a subject and forces us to reconsider assumptions about the place of art that underlie the longstanding narratives of art history.

Painterly Enlightenment

Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
"Kaufmann situates Maulbertsch as a fresco painter at a time of transition to easel painting, a colorist at a time when color was not fully appreciated by contemporary observers, and an interpreter of religious themes at a time when secular subjects were becoming more popular. Although he has been dismissed as an eccentric by previous scholars, Kaufmann's analysis shows Maulbertsch involved in the intellectual and aesthetic issues of his day."--BOOK JACKET.

Medieval Art, Medieval People
Author: Richard H. Putney
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 68
Book Description
Since its installation in 1932, the Cloister Gallery has been the setting of group tours, University and Museum classes, weddings. and, of course, visits by thousands of families and individuals. The gallery's popularity is due in large part to its display of beautiful objects made in Europe during the Middle Ages. The gallery's most striking feature is its dramatic installation of three arcades from three long-demolished or abandoned buildings in southern France. Only a handful of American museums are fortunate enough to have such galleries. Responding to visitor demand, Richard H. Putney, professor of art history at the University of Toledo, was commissioned to write about Toledo's cloister arcades and some of the medieval art objects. His text covers essential aspects of style, chronology, and historical setting, but his central focus is on the relationship of some of the works of art in the collection to the people--churchmen, monks, noblemen, peasants, and artists--who made up medieval society
