As a result of generous loans of over one hundred outstanding works of art, the Courtauld Gallery has been able to extend its collection further into the twentieth century. In 2002, for the first time the Gallery was able to show historically coherent groups of works representing key developments in the art history of the early 20th century. This is the catalogue to the new display, which includes important paintings by Derain, Matisse, Gaugin, Vlamnicks, Van Gogh, Cézanne, Kandinsky, Münter and Jawlensky, and sculptures by Degas, Rodin, Matisse, Renoir, Moore and Hepworth.

Italian Maiolica and Other Early Modern Ceramics in the Courtauld Gallery - Elisa Sani - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Italian Maiolica and Other Early Modern Ceramics in the Courtauld Gallery - Elisa Sani - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This is the first catalogue of the collection of early modern ceramics in the Courtauld. The pieces in the collection showcase brilliantly the skill of potters and pottery painters working at the time of Raphael and Titian.Maiolica is one of the most revealing expressions of Renaissance art. Its extraordinary range of colours retain the vividness that they had when they left the potter''s kiln. Italian potters absorbed techniques and shapes from the Islamic world and incorporated ornament and subject matter from the arts of ancient Rome. This new approach to pottery making, combined with the invention of printing, woodcut and engraving, resulted in an extraordinary type of painted pottery, praised by Vasari in his Lives of the Artists for ''surpassing the ancient with its brilliance of glaze and variety of painting''.The collection boasts a magnificent group of vessels made during the high Renaissance, the golden age of Italian maiolica. It includes precious and delicate Deruta lustreware with imagery deriving from Perugino and Raphael, as well as vessels painted in a narrative style of pottery painting known as istoriato. Highlights include vessels depicting episodes taken from the first printed Bibles of the Renaissance. Istoriato maiolica flourished particularly in the lands of the Dukes of Urbino, who promoted this craft by sending painted pottery to prestigious patrons across Europe.Emblems and devices painted on the pottery help us understand that they were meant to be used and enjoyed by the elites in Renaissance society, such as the Medici and other great Tuscan families. The catalogue will include two recent gifts to the Courtauld, a rare tile of the famous patroness of the arts Marchioness Isabella D''Este, and a refined dish painted with the story of Diana and Actaeon.All major Renaissance pottery centres are represented in the collection, including Siena, Faenza and Venice, as well as splendid examples of the mysterious pharmacy jars made at the foot of the mountain of Gran Sasso in the town of Castelli d''Abruzzo. These achievements of the art of pottery in the early modern period are completed by fine examples of Ottoman pottery, as well as examples of Valencian lustreware.Sani''s introductory essay on the Victorian collector Thomas Gambier Parry will shed new light on the development of this fascinating collection, making links between Gambier Parry''s artistic practice and his collecting and revealing new insights into his taste as a collector. Each detailed entry uncovers a wealth of new information on the provenance of the pieces.

Fuseli and the Modern Woman - Mechthild Fend - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Fuseli and the Modern Woman - Mechthild Fend - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This catalogue accompanies the first exhibition devoted to a fascinating group of drawings by the Anglo-Swiss Henry Fuseli (1741–1825), one of eighteenth-century Europe’s most idiosyncratic, original and controversial artists. Best known for his notoriously provocative painting The Nightmare, Fuseli energetically cultivated a reputation for eccentricity, with vividly stylised images of supernatural creatures, muscle-bound heroes, and damsels in distress. While these convinced some viewers of the greatness of his genius, others dismissed him as a charlatan, or as completely mad. Fuseli’s contemporaries might have thought him even crazier had they been aware that in private he harboured an obsessive preoccupation with the figure of the modern woman, which he pursued almost exclusively in his drawings. Where one might have expected idealised bodies with the grace and proportions of classical statues, here instead we encounter figures whose anatomies have been shaped by stiff bodices, waistbands, puff ed sleeves, and pointed shoes, and whose heads are crowned by coiffures of the mostbizarre and complicated sort. Often based on the artist’s wife Sophia Rawlins, the women who populate Fuseli’s graphic work tend to adopt brazenly aggressive attitudes, either fixing their gaze directly on the viewer or ignoring our presence altogether. Usually theyappear on their own, in isolation on the page; sometimes they are grouped together to form disturbing narratives, erotic fantasies that may be mysterious, vaguely menacing, or overtly transgressive, but where women always play a dominant role. Among the many intriguing questions raised by these works is the extent to which his wife Sophia was actively involved in fashioning her appearance for her own pleasure, as well as for the benefit of her husband. By bringing together more than fi fty of these studies (roughly a third of the known total), The Courtauld Gallery will give audiences an unprecedented opportunity to see one of the finest Romantic-period draughtsmen at his most innovative and exciting. Visitors to the show and readers of the lavishly illustrated catalogue will further be invited to consider how Fuseli’s drawings of women, as products of the turbulent aftermath of the American and French Revolutions, speak to concerns about gender and sexuality that have never been more relevant than they are today. The exhibition showcases drawings brought together from international collections, including the Kunsthaus in Zurich, the Auckland Art Gallery in New Zealand, and from other European and North American institutions.

Soutine’s Portraits - - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Soutine’s Portraits - - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Accompanying a major exhibition at the Courtauld Gallery that focuses upon one of Chaim Soutine’s most important series of portraits – of cooks, waiters and bellboys – this is the first time that this outstanding group of masterpieces has ever been brought together. Chaim Soutine (1893–1943) produced some of the most powerful and expressive portraits of modern times. His ability to capture in paint the character, humanity and emotion of his sitters is the hallmark of Soutine’s greatest work. The major exhibition at the Courtauld Gallery, London, focuses upon one of his most important series of portraits; his paintings of cooks, waiters and bellboys who sat for him in Paris and the South of France during the 1920s. These works helped to establish Soutine’s reputation as a major avant-garde painter, seen by many as the twentieth century heir to van Gogh. This will be the first time that this outstanding group of masterpieces has ever been brought together and it will be the first exhibition of Soutine’s work in London for over thirty years. Soutine arrived in Paris as an émigré from Russia in 1913 and began a precarious existence as a penniless artist in Montparnasse living among fellow painters, such as Marc Chagall and Amedeo Modigliani. As part of this avant-garde coterie of artists, Soutine developed a highly original style that combined an expressive handling of paint with deep reverence for the Old Masters that he studied in the Louvre. His portraits often appear both timeless and vividly modern. These qualities are exemplified by the series of paintings of cooks, waiters and bellhops that he produced during the 1920s. These lowly and often-overlooked figures from Paris’s fashionable hotels and restaurants, including the famous Maxim’s, appealed to Soutine’s sense that profound emotion and a deep sense of humanity could be found in such humble sitters. The contrast between their working uniforms and the individuality of their faces adds to the emotional charge of these extraordinary portraits. Soutine strived to achieve the most powerful effects of color from the bold whites, reds and blues of their different uniforms. When he started the series, Soutine was living in near-poverty as a struggling artist. These portraits helped to lift him out of these desperate circumstances as they were soon admired by friends and become prized by collectors. Today, they are considered among his greatest achievements. This publication will bring together the most comprehensive group of these portraits. It will be a unique opportunity to experience the power and profound emotion of Soutine’s art.

The Courtauld Cezannes - Stephanie Buck - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Courtauld Cezannes - Stephanie Buck - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Courtauld Gallery holds the finest group of works by Paul Cézanne (1839–1906) in Britain. This is the catalogue to an exhibition showing the entire collection together for the first time, marking the culmination of The Courtauld Institute of Art’s 75th anniversary. The importance of the collection lies not only in its exceptionally high quality but also in its wide range, with seminal paintings and rarely seen drawings and watercolors from the major periods of the artist’s long career. The collection includes such masterpieces as the iconic Montagne Sainte-Victoire, c. 1887 – one of the finest examples of Cézanne’s treatment of this subject – and Card Players, c. 1892–95, which show Cézanne working at the height of his powers. Through examination of such works, this book will chart the development of the artist’s revolutionary approach that would later see him acclaimed as the father of modern art. Extensive new research by the Courtauld’s Department of Conservation and Technology will add fresh insights into the artist’s working methods and techniques. Also under scrutiny are an important group of nine handwritten letters, held by the Courtauld, in which Cézanne reflects upon the fundamental principles of his artistic practice. In a letter to Emile Bernard Cézanne famously advised his protégé to “treat nature in terms of the cylinder, the sphere and the cone”. This celebrated statement would become a theoretical underpinning for the move towards abstraction in the twentieth century.

Yoshida - Monika Hinkel - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Yoshida - Monika Hinkel - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Explores the rich history of Japanese printmaking passed down through the Yoshida family. This book, accompanying the 2024 exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery, explores the Yoshida family's important contribution to Japanese woodblock printing, from patriarch Hiroshi down to the current generation, led by Yoshida Ayomi. The story of the Yoshida family has been woven into the history of Japanese printmaking across two centuries, with each generation infusing this traditional art form with their sensitivity and imagination. Trained as a painter and watercolorist, Yoshida Hiroshi (1876–1950) was a pioneer of the shin hanga artistic movement, which revived the traditional ukiyo-e prints ("pictures of the floating world"). His incredible corpus of woodblock prints contributed to the popularity of Japanese prints in the West. Fujio (1887–1987), Hiroshi's wife, a watercolorist, painter, and printmaker, was the first Japanese woman artist to gain international acclaim. Toshi (1911–1995) and Hodaka (1926–1995), Hiroshi and Fujio's sons, represent the second generation of this artistic dynasty; Toshi introduced post-war abstraction to the Japanese printmaking process, while Hodaka pushed these modernist instances further, achieving a unique personal style inspired by the sosaku hanga movement of artistic self-expression. His wife Chizuko (1924–2017) co-founded the first group of female printmakers in Japan, the Women's Print Association. The youngest member of the Yoshida family is Ayomi (b. 1958), daughter of Hodaka and Chizuko, whose practice bridges the gap between ukyio-e and contemporary art thanks also to the exploration of organic materials. She has been exhibited at major international institutions and will contribute an original installation to the Dulwich show.

British Art: Ancient Landscapes - Sam Smile - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

British Art: Ancient Landscapes - Sam Smile - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Published to accompany an exhibition at Salisbury Museum and Art Gallery,this volume explores the most significant works of art engaged with prehistoricmoments across Britain from the 18th century to the 21st. While some of theworks in the earlier period may be familiar to readers – especially Turner andConstable’s famous watercolours of Stonehenge – the varied responses to BritishAntiquity since 1900 are much less well known and have never been groupedtogether. The author aims to show the significance of antiquity for 20th-century artists,demonstrating how they responded to the observable features of prehistoricBritain and exploited their potential for imaginative re-interpretation. Theclassic phase of modernist interest in these sites and monuments was the1930s, but a number of artists working after WWII developed this legacy orwere stimulated to explore that landscape in new ways. Indeed, it continues tostimulate responses and the book concludes with an examination of works madewithin the last few years. An introductory essay looks at the changing artistic approach to Britishprehistoric remains over the last 250 years, emphasizing the artistic significanceof this body of work and examining the very different contexts that broughtit into being. The cultural intersections between the prehistoric landscape, itsrepresentation by fine artists and the emergence of its most famous sites asfamiliar locations in public consciousness will also be examined. For example,engraved topographical illustrations from the 18th and 19th centuries and Shelladvertising posters from the 20th century will be considered. Artists represented include: JMW Turner, John Constable, Thomas Hearne,William Blake, Samuel Prout, William Geller, Richard Tongue, Thomas Guest,John William Inchbold, George Shepherd, William Andrews Nesfield, CopleyFielding, Yoshijiro (Mokuchu) Urushibara, Alan Sorrell, Edward McKnightKauffer, Frank Dobson, Paul Nash, Eric Ravilious, John Piper, Henry Moore,Barbara Hepworth, Ithell Colquhoun, Gertrude Hermes, Norman Stevens,Norman Ackroyd, Bill Brandt, Derek Jarman, Richard Long, Joe Tilson, DavidInshaw and Jeremy Deller.

Antiquity Unleashed - Marcus Andrew Hurttig - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Antiquity Unleashed - Marcus Andrew Hurttig - Bog - Paul Holberton Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Hamburg banker’s son Aby Warburg (1866–1929) was one of the most influential art historians and cultural theorists of the 20th century. His life’s work was devoted to tracing antique formulas of representation in the depiction of human passions in Renaissance art. For this epoch-spanning relationship, he developed the term ‘pathos formula’ (Pathosformel). In a lecture given in 1905 in the Konzerthaus in Hamburg, focusing on the young Albrecht Du¨rer’s Death of Orpheus, Warburg outlined his thoughts in front of the original drawing, which he had borrowed from the rich holdings of the Kunsthalle in order to better illustrate his idea. This drawing, pivotal in the young artist’s development as an ambitious response to classical antiquity, was displayed during the lecture alongside a group of engravings and woodcuts which included not only some of Du¨rer’s own seminal later prints, such as Melencolia I, but also engravings by Andrea Mantegna which Du¨rer copied in 1494, the same year he drew the Death of Orpheus. Warburg’s ‘pop-up exhibition’ of eleven works has here been reconstructed and analyzed, using his fascinating lecture notes, sketches and slide lists. First developed by the Hamburger Kunsthalle in 2011, subsequently on view in Cologne in the Wallraf-Richartz Museum and now at The Courtauld Gallery, each institution has interpreted the material slightly differently, while retaining the core Warburg group. Aby Warburg aimed at unlocking the meaning of an art work by excavating its roots in its cultural context. By restaging his legendary display of 1905 with Du¨rer’s Death of Orpheus at its heart, the exhibition and accompanying book present some of the most skillful and ambitious works on paper ever produced and also seek to introduce into Warburg’s rich intellectual universe to a broader public, hoping thereby to offer both sheer enjoyment and food for thought.
