Abstract

Summary: Catalogue de l'exposition présentée au musée des Beaux Arts de Valenciennes du 23 octobre 2009 au 7 février 2010. Cette exposition est la 1e rétrospective consacrée en France à cet artiste. Cet événement, organisé avec la collaboration exceptionnelle du Rijksmuseum d'Amsterdam, s'inscrit dans la programmation de l'Année de la Turquie en France. Né à Valenciennes, Jean-Baptiste Vanmour (1671-1737) passa l'essentiel de sa vie et de sa carrière dans la ville de Constantinople. Fasciné par les paysages du Bosphore et les fastes somptueux de la Cour des sultans. Il fut un témoin précieux dépeignant toutes les facettes de la vie ottomane au 18e siècle. Intimité des harems, représentation de dignitaires du régime turc, et paysages. A la tête d'un atelier florissant, les voyageurs européens charmés par ses œvres pittoresque rapportèrent de très nombreux tableaux en occident. Seth Gopin, dans cette publication met en évidence l'importance de ces échanges entre orient et occident et le rôle joué par Vanmour dans le développement de l'orientalisme en Europe.

Abstract

Living Icons is the first book to explore the emergence and function of a novel pictorial format in the Middle Ages, the vita icon, which displayed the magnified portrait of a saint framed by scenes from his or her life. The vita icon was used for depicting the most popular figures in the Orthodox calendar and, in the Latin West, was deployed most vigorously in the service of Francis of Assisi. This book offers a compelling account of how this type of image embodied and challenged the prevailing structures of vision, representation, and sanctity in Byzantium and among the Franciscans in Italy between the eleventh and thirteenth centuries. Through the lens of this format, Paroma Chatterjee uncovers the complexities of the philosophical and theological issues that had long engaged both the medieval East and West, such as the fraught relations between words and images, relics and icons, a representation and its subject, and the very nature of holy presence.

Abstract

Byzantine Art and Renaissance Europe discusses the cultural and artistic interaction between the Byzantine east and western Europe, from the sack of Constantinople by the Fourth Crusade in 1204 to the flourishing of post-Byzantine artistic workshops on Venetian Crete during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries and the formation of icon collections in Renaissance Italy. The contributors examine the routes by which artistic interaction may have taken place, and explore the reception of Byzantine art in western Europe, analysing why artists and patrons were interested in ideas from the other side of the cultural and religious divide. In the first chapter, Lyn Rodley outlines the development of Byzantine art in the Palaiologan era and its relations with western culture. Hans Bloemsma then re-assesses the influence of Byzantine art on early Italian painting from the point of view of changing demands regarding religious images in Italy. In the first of two chapters on Venetian Crete, Angeliki Lymberopoulou evaluates the impact of the Venetian presence on the production of fresco decorations in regional Byzantine churches on the island. The next chapter, by Diana Newall, continues the exploration of Cretan art manufactured under the Venetians, shifting the focus to the bi-cultural society of the Cretan capital Candia and the rise of the post-Byzantine icon. Kim Woods then addresses the reception of Byzantine icons in western Europe in the late Middle Ages and their role as devotional objects in the Roman Catholic Church. Finally, Rembrandt Duits examines the status of Byzantine icons as collectors' items in early Renaissance Italy. The inventories of the Medici family and other collectors reveal an appreciation for icons among Italian patrons, which suggests that received notions of Renaissance tastes may be in need of revision. The book thus offers new perspectives and insights and re-positions late and post-Byzantine art in a broader European cultural context.
