Abstract

Cast shadows have been exploited in art to enhance the impression of the surrounding light as well as that of the solidity of the casting objects. They can contribute to the mood of the scene, and can reveal the presence of features outside the space represented, but as Professor Gombrich points out, they appear only sporadicaly and have been more frequently ignored or suppressed in Western art. Gombrich touches on the ambiguous nature of shadows in myth, legend, and philosophy, and briefly analyses the factors governing their shape: the location and form of the light source, the shape of the illuminated object and that of the surface on which the shadow falls, and the position of the viewer. Early Renaissance painters such as Masaccio and Campin, intent on a faithful rendering of visual reality, did incorporate shadows in their art, but artists of Leonardo's time largely avoided painting them, and it was not until early in the seventeenth century that painters - particualrly Caravaggio and Rembrandt - were again interested in the effects of shadows. In subsequent centuries artists of the Romantic, Impressionist and Surrealist movements exploited the device of the cast shadow to enhance the realism or drama of their images.

Abstract

Tot de twintigste eeuw waren het voornamelijk mannen die de kunstgeschiedenis vastlegden en mannen die in de kunstgeschiedenis werden opgenomen. De rol van vrouwen werd steevast genegeerd. Maar ondanks de vele obstakels, van wetten en religies tot de druk van familieleden en de afkeuring van het volk, hebben vrouwen altijd een belangrijke rol gespeeld in de kunst.

In *Spiegel en palet* geeft Jennifer Higgie een overzicht van 500 jaar kunstgeschiedenis aan de hand van vrouwelijke zelfportretten. Een geschiedenis vol verhalen over rebellie, avontuur, revolutie, reizen en tragedie. Met in de hoofdrol de vrouwen die conventies de rug toekeerden en een leven leidden vol kracht, creativiteit en moed. Op basis van hun verhalen komt Higgie tot een belangrijke herziening van eeuwen kunstgeschiedenis.

Abstract

"This unprecedented book explores the evolving concept of unfinishedness as essential to understanding art movements from the Renaissance to the present. Unfinished presents more than 170 works, created in a variety of media, by artists ranging from Leonardo, Titian, Rembrandt, Turner, and Cézanne to Picasso, Warhol, Twombly, Freud, Richter, and Nauman. What unites these works, across centuries and media, is that each one displays some aspect of being unfinished. Essays and case studies by major contemporary scholars address this key concept from the perspective of both the creator and the viewer, probing the impact that this long artistic trajectory-which can be traced back to the first century-has had on modern and contemporary art. The book explores the degrees to which instances of incompleteness were accidental or intentional, experimental or conceptual. Also included are illuminating interviews with contemporary artists, including Tuymans, Celmins, and Marden, and parallel considerations of the unfinished in literature and film. The result is a multidisciplinary approach and thought-provoking analysis that provide valuable insight into the making, meaning, and critical reception of the unfinished in art"--Distributor's website.
