Abstract

Die Arabeske ist nicht nur eine der wichtigsten Positionen des klassischen Ballettvokabulars, mit ihr lässt sich auch das Ornamentale des Balletts im frühen 19. Jahrhundert beschreiben. Aus größtenteils bisher unveröffentlichten ikonografischen Quellen entwickelt Eike Wittrock eine Ästhetik des Balletts, die sowohl die Einzelfigur Arabeske wie auch die Gruppenformationen des corps de ballet erfasst. Lithografien, choreografische Notationen, Abbildungen in Traktaten von Carlo Blasis und Léopold Adice, Musterbücher und Buchverzierungen werden dabei als historiografische Medien von Tanz verstanden, die die fantastische Bildlichkeit von Balletten wie »Giselle«, »Ondine« und »Thea, oder: Die Blumenfee« in der Aufzeichnung weiterführen. »Anschaulich unterstützt von gut gewählten Abbildungen aus der Tanzgeschichte entsteht ein überzeugendes Bild eines Aspektes der Tanzpraxis.« Peter Dahms, Tanzinfo Berlin, 11 (2017) Besprochen in: Up To Dance, 1 (2018) tanz, 2 (2018), Arnd Wesemann

Abstract

Reclaiming public life from the ideologies of both communist regimes and neoliberalism, their projects have harnessed the politically subversive potential of social relations based on trust, reciprocity and solidarity. Drawing on archival material and exclusive interviews, in this book Izabel Galliera traces the development of socially engaged art from the early 1990s to the present in Bulgaria, Hungary and Romania. She demonstrates that, in the early 1990s, projects were primarily created for exhibitions organized and funded by the Soros Centers for Contemporary Art. In the early 2000s, prior to Bulgaria, Hungary and Romania entering into the European Union, EU institutions likewise funded socially-conscious public art in the region. Today, socially engaged art is characterised by the proliferation of independent and often self-funded artists' initiatives in cities such as Sofia, Bucharest and Budapest. Focusing on the relationships between art, social capital and civil society, Galliera employs sociological and political theories to reveal that, while social capital is generally considered a mechanism of exclusion in the West, in post-socialist contexts it has been leveraged by artists and curators as a vital means of communication and action.

Abstract

"A landmark exploration of the engaging network of relationships among genre painters of the Dutch Golden Age The genre painting of the Dutch Golden Age between 1650 and 1675 ranks among the highest pinnacles of Western European art. The virtuosity of these works, as this book demonstrates, was achieved in part thanks to a vibrant artistic rivalry among numerous first-rate genre painters working in different cities across the Dutch Republic. They drew inspiration from each other's painting, and then tried to surpass each other in technical prowess and aesthetic appeal. The Delft master Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675) is now the most renowned of these painters of everyday life. Though he is frequently portrayed as an enigmatic figure who worked largely in isolation, the essays here reveal that Vermeer's subjects, compositions, and figure types in fact owe much to works by artists from other Dutch cities. Enlivened with 180 superb illustrations, Vermeer and the Masters of Genre Painting highlights the relationships - comparative and competitive - among Vermeer and his contemporaries, including Gerrit Dou, Gerard ter Borch, Jan Steen, Pieter de Hooch, Gabriel Metsu, and Frans van Mieris"--
