One of the most fascinating yet least explored questions in art history is that of status in art. The analysis of how artists and artworks achieve recognition or not, both during their lifetimes and beyond, leads us into sociology of art, a field that, regarding modern sculpture, has received little attention internationally, and is largely untouched in terms of the Catalan and Spanish contexts. This objective of this volume is to contribute to our understanding of the mechanisms of status and success in nineteenth- and twentieth-century sculpture, especially in Spain and Catalonia. The authors, experts from Europe and America, address the topic both from theoretical viewpoints, and considering the impact on the construction of artists’ careers. They also explore the possibilities of sculpture as an object on the path to artistic recognition, and the particularities of status in specific historical circumstances, such as under Franco’s dictatorship, in which art is not always put at the service of an ideology.

L’escultura ha estat, potser, la més desconeguda de les disciplines artístiques al llarg de la història. Tanmateix, en els darrers anys s’han endegat una sèrie d’iniciatives que palesen un reviscolament de l’interès per l’escultura moderna i contemporània,un moviment de recuperació en el qual la universitat ha pres part. Aquest llibre aplega estudis sobre aquesta matèria realitzats per diversos especialistes amb la voluntat de descobrir l’escultura i el seu univers creatiu, sovint desconegut però sempre sorprenent.

Le 4 août 1897, des ouvriers agricoles découvrent à La Alcudia, site de l’antique Ilici (Elche, au sud de la province d’Alicante), une sculpture ibérique datant du ve-ive siècle av. J.-C. et connue sous le nom de Dame d’Elche. Sa singularité et « l’étrangeté troublante de sa beauté » (Pierre Paris) attirent l’attention des archéologues européens. Très vite considérée comme le chef-d’œuvre de l’art ibérique, la statue devient une source d’inspiration pour les artistes et, sous la plume des idéologues régionalistes et nationalistes espagnols, une icône identitaire. Le but de cet ouvrage, écrit par un archéologue et une anthropologue, n’est pas seulement de dire ce qu’était la Dame dans l’Antiquité mais aussi et surtout ce qu’elle est devenue pour les hommes et les femmes de notre époque qui se sont interrogés sur elle, l’ont admirée, aimée et souvent réinventée. Descubierta por casualidad en 1897 y posteriormente presentada en el Louvre y el Museo del Prado, la Dama de Elche es considerada no sólo una obra maestra del arte ibérico sino también un icono identitario. Escrito por una antropóloga y un arqueólogo, este ensayo examina la recepción histórica, ideológica y artística de esta escultura, las interpretaciones y reacciones afectivas que la Dama ha suscitado desde su descubrimiento hasta el día de hoy, así como los usos sociales y políticos de la estatua.

This handbook provides comprehensive treatment of the current state of glass science from the leading experts in the field. Opening with an enlightening contribution on the history of glass, the volume is then divided into eight parts. The first part covers fundamental properties, from the current understanding of the thermodynamics of the amorphous state, kinetics, and linear and nonlinear optical properties through colors, photosensitivity, and chemical durability. The second part provides dedicated chapters on each individual glass type, covering traditional systems like silicates and other oxide systems, as well as novel hybrid amorphous materials and spin glasses. The third part features detailed descriptions of modern characterization techniques for understanding this complex state of matter. The fourth part covers modeling, from first-principles calculations through molecular dynamics simulations, and statistical modeling. The fifth part presents a range of laboratory and industrial glass processing methods. The remaining parts cover a wide and representative range of applications areas from optics and photonics through environment, energy, architecture, and sensing. Written by the leading international experts in the field, the Springer Handbook of Glass represents an invaluable resource for graduate students through academic and industry researchers working in photonics, optoelectronics, materials science, energy, architecture, and more.

This book is concerned with socially engaged art projects in the Chinese countryside, with the artists and intellectuals who are involved, the villagers they meet and the local authorities with whom they negotiate. In recent years an increasing number of urban artists have turned towards the countryside in an attempt to revive rural areas perceived to be in a crisis. The vantage point of this book is the Bishan Commune. In 2010, Ou Ning drafted a notebook entitled Bishan Commune: How to Start Your Own Utopia. The notebook presents a utopian ideal of life based on anarchist Peter Kropotkin’s idea of mutual aid. In 2011 the Commune was established in Bishan Village in Anhui Province. The main questions of this book thus revolve around how an anarchist, utopian community unfolds to the backdrop of the political, social and historical landscape of rural China, or more directly: How do you start your own utopia in the Chinese countryside? Mai Corlin is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Department of Fine Arts of the Chinese University of Hong Kong. .
