  • Peasant Scenes and Landscapes

    The Rise of Pictorial Genres in the Antwerp Art Market

    af Larry Silver ...
    Modern viewers take for granted the pictorial conventions present in easel paintings and engraved prints of such subjects as landscapes or peasants. These generic subjects and their representational conventions, however, have their own origins and early histories. In sixteenth-century Antwerp, painting and the emerging new medium of engraving began to depart from traditional visual culture, which ... Læs mere

  • Stories of Art

    af James Elkins ...
    Stories of Art is James Elkins's intimate history of art. Concise and original, this engaging book is an antidote to the behemoth art history textbooks from which we were all taught. As he demonstrates so persuasively, there can never be one story of art. Cultures have their own stories - about themselves, about other cultures - and to hear them all is one way to hear the multiple stories that art ... Læs mere

  • Jewish Life in Poland

    The Art of Moshe Rynecki (1881-1943)

    Moshe Rynecki used his paintbrush and palette to document and chronicle the life of his community-Jewish people of Warsaw, Poland. Some artists, however, do more than simply document the subjects that they see and watch-they use the canvas to reveal something new-to show us that which we did not see at first, that which we might not consider if we had observed the subject ourselves. While some ... Læs mere

  • Spectacular Death

    Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Mortality and (Un)representability

    An interdisciplinary collection of essays on the medical and social articulation of death, this anthology considers to what extent a subject as elusive as death can be examined. Though it touches us all, we can perceive it only in life – with the predictable result that we treat it either as a clinical or social problem to be managed or as a phenomenon to be studied quantitatively.

    The Art of Visual Storytelling

But there is another way of looking at film, and that is through its relationship with the visual arts – mainly painting, the oldest of the art forms.Art History for Filmmakers is an inspiring guide to how images from ...

  • In Love with Freedom

    The True Story of a Remarkable Woman

    Based upon her own words, this is the story of a unique individual whose deep love for her native country was overshadowed only by her compelling love for freedom. Born with a pedigree of royalty reaching back to the Byzantine Empire, and riches comparable to the American Rockerfellers, this princess seemed destined to a life of pampered luxury and perhaps a noble charity. Life, however, doesn’t ... Læs mere
