Field to Palette: Dialogues on Soil and Art in the Anthropocene is an investigation of the cultural meanings, representations, and values of soil in a time of planetary change. The book offers critical reflections on some of the most challenging environmental problems of our time, including land take, groundwater pollution, desertification, and biodiversity loss. At the same time, the book celebrates diverse forms of resilience in the face of such challenges, beginning with its title as a way of honoring locally controlled food production methods championed by "field to plate" movements worldwide. By focusing on concepts of soil functionality, the book weaves together different disciplinary perspectives in a collection of dialogue texts between artists and scientists, interviews by the editors and invited curators, essays and poems by earth scientists and humanities scholars, soil recipes, maps, and DIY experiments. With contributions from over 100 internationally renowned researchers and practitioners, Field to Palette presents a set of visual methodologies and worldviews that expand our understanding of soil and encourage readers to develop their own interpretations of the ground beneath our feet.

Que nous apprennent la physique et la chimie sur le sourire de la Joconde ? Des techniques d'analyse performantes, mobiles et non invasives, utilisant des rayons X, des lasers ou la lumière ultraviolette, visible et infrarouge, permettent aujourd'hui de mieux comprendre le rôle des matières et des techniques picturales dans la création artistique. Elles contribuent également à l'expertise et à la restauration des œuvres, notamment pour reconstituer l'éclat des couleurs d'origine. Indissociable d'une démarche pluridisciplinaire, la physico-chimie nous fait remonter le temps et nous livre les secrets d'atelier des artistes, allant jusqu'à reconstituer le geste créateur.

Au terme d un vaste projet de recherche mené par le Van Gogh Museum, Shell et le Netherlands Institute for Cultural Heritage, nous découvrons les supports, couches de fond, pigments et encres choisis par l artiste, ainsi que l impact de ces décisions sur ses oeuvres. L ouvrage nous fournit aussi nombre d informations nouvelles sur les ressources de Van Gogh, ses conditions de travail, ses méthodes et les influences potentielles dont il a bénéficié. Une combinaison de connaissances historiques, scientifiques et techniques donne une idée plus précise de l aspect original des oeuvres de Van Gogh, assurant une meilleure orientation des futurs efforts de conservation. Avec cette publication scientifique, le Musée Van Gogh s affirme comme un centre d expertise majeur. Les auteurs des 20 et quelques articles sont tous des spécialistes internationaux : historiens de l art, conservateurs, experts en informatique, physiciens et chimistes.

"The Grove Encyclopedia of Materials and Techniques deals with all aspects of materials, techniques, conservation, and restoration in both traditional and nontraditional media, including ceramics, sculpture, metalwork, painting, works on paper, textiles, video, digital art, and more. Drawing upon the expansive scholarship in The Dictionary of Art and adding new entries, this work is a comprehensive reference resource for artists, art dealers, collectors, curators, conservators, students, researchers, and scholars." "Similar in design to The Grove Encyclopedia of Decorative Arts, this one-volume reference work contains articles of various lengths in alphabetical order. The shorter, more factual articles are combined with larger, multi-section articles tracing the development of materials and techniques in various geographical locations. The Encyclopedia provides unparalleled scope and depth, and it offers fully updated articles and bibliography as well as over 150 illustrations and color plates." "The Grove Encyclopedia of Materials and Techniques offers scholarly information on materials and techniques in art for anyone who studies, creates, collects, or deals in works of art. The entries are written to be accessible to a wide range of readers, and the work is designed as a reliable and convenient resource covering this essential area in the visual arts."--BOOK JACKET.
