Book Description
La muestra, que presenta 60 obras del propio Rueda y 40 obras de otros artistas, recorre toda la producción de Rueda, y está articulada en torno a cinco ámbitos, que explican aspectos destacados de su trabajo: "Paisaje" centra su interés en el espacio y su relación con la tradición paisajística de Paolo Ucello y la construcción de la perspectiva, que influyen en la experimentación de Rueda con el relieve y la escultura tridimensional; lo "Barroco" aborda irónicamente el paralelismo del término con la con la yuxtaposición de formas, colores y texturas, explorando los límites de la contraposición entre el orden constructivo y la furia del azar; en "Bodegón" Rueda vuelve a la problemática de la perspectiva y la profundidad del espacio, experimentando con el juego de volúmenes y el efecto de la luz para disolver contornos y jugar a la negación del orden; en las "Geometrías musicales" se aborda la cuestión de la proporción como cualidad determinante de la pintura, y a través de los desequilibrios y tensiones en los ritmos y la seriación se alcanza el dinamismo; por último, lo "Blanco" protagoniza una proyección de la geometría hacia la plenitud, y simboliza la implicación íntima entre forma, luz y color.

Cruelty and Utopia
Author: Jean-François LejeunePublisher: Princeton Architectural Press
ISBN: 1568984898
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
This landmark collection of illustrated essays explores the vastly underappreciated history of America's other cities -- the great metropolises found south of our borders in Central and South America. Buenos Aires, So Paulo, Mexico City, Caracas, Havana, Santiago, Rio, Tijuana, and Quito are just some of the subjects of this diverse collection. How have desires to create modern societies shaped these cities, leading to both architectural masterworks (by the likes of Luis Barragn, Juan O'Gorman, Lcio Costa, Roberto Burle Marx, Carlos Ral Villanueva, and Lina Bo Bardi) and the most shocking favelas? How have they grappled with concepts of national identity, their colonial history, and the continued demands of a globalized economy? Lavishly illustrated, Cruelty and Utopia features the work of such leading scholars as Carlos Fuentes, Edward Burian, Lauro Cavalcanti, Fernando Oayrzn, Roberto Segre, and Eduardo Subirats, along with artwork ranging from colonial paintings to stills from Chantal Akerman's film From the Other Side. Also included is a revised translation of Spanish King Philip II's influential planning treatise of 1573, the "Laws of the Indies," which did so much to define the form of the Latin American city.

Revolutionary Beauty
Author: Sabine T. KriebelPublisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520340760
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 615
Book Description
Revolutionary Beauty offers the first sustained study of the German artist John Heartfield's groundbreaking political photomontages, published in the left-wing weekly Arbeiter Illustrierte Zeitung (AIZ) during the 1930s. Sabine T. Kriebel foregrounds the critical artistic practices with which Heartfield directly confronted the turbulent, ideologically charged currents of interwar Europe, exposing the cultural politics of the crucial historical moment that witnessed the consolidation of National Socialism. In this period of radicalization and mass mobilization, the medium of photomontage—the cut-and-paste assemblage of photograph and text—offered a way to deconstruct the visual world and galvanize beholders on a mass scale. Kriebel transforms our understandings of montage as a quintessentially modern practice. Central to that reconceptualization is suture, a concept integral to film theory but recruited in this book to explore the psychic operations of Heartfield’s seamlessly welded AIZ photomontages. Revolutionary Beauty proposes that the language of sutured illusionism constitutes one of the most important and overlooked critiques of modern media, wherein a radical reassessment resides in suture. Scholars of photography, modern and contemporary art history, media studies, and European history will doubtlessly embrace this book.
