The Craft of Art: Originality and Industry in the Italian Renaissance and Baroque Workshop by Andrew Ladis,

The Craft of Art: Originality and Industry in the Italian Renaissance and Baroque Workshop by Andrew Ladis,
In this collection of nine essays some of the preeminent art historians in the United States consider the relationship between art and craft, between the creative idea and its realization, in Renaissance and Baroque Italy. The essays, all previously unpublished, are devoted to the pictorial arts and are accompanied by nearly 150 illustrations. Examining works by such artists as Michelangelo, Titian, Volterrano, Giovanni di Paolo, and Annibale Carracci (along with aspects of the artists' creative processes, work habits, and aesthetic convictions), the essayists explore the ways in which art was conceived and produced at a time when collaboration with pupils, assistants, or independent masters was an accepted part of the artistic process. The consensus of the contributors amounts to a revision, or at least a qualification, of Bernard Berenson's interpretation of the emergent Renaissance ideal of individual "genius" as a measure of original artistic achievement. This new perspective accords greater influence to the collaborative, appropriative conventions and practices of the craft workshop, which persisted into and beyond the Renaissance from its origins in the Middle Ages. Consequently, say the contributors, we must acknowledge the sometimes rather ordinary beginnings of some of the world's great works of art. Such an admission will open new avenues of study and enhance our understanding of the complex connections between invention and execution.



Endquote: Sots-Art Literature and Soviet Grand Style by Marina Balina,
Endquote: Sots-Art Literature and Soviet Grand Style by Marina Balina,
Sots-art, the mock use of the Soviet ideological cliches of mass culture, originated in Soviet nonconformist art of the early 1970s. In literature, Sots-art stands out as one of the most distinct directions in late-twentieth-century Russian culture both in its explicit aesthetic confrontation with Soviet history and in its capacity, after many decades of socialist realism, to integrate Russian literature back into the world literary process. Sots-art has had a profound influence on contemporary Russian literature, figuring both as distinct texts and as a range of citational devices within larger, more diverse works; yet despite its centrality, Sots-art in literature has not been systematically studied, either in Russia or in the West. Endquote: Sots-art Literature and Soviet Grand Style begins that process with an examination of literary Sots-art on several levels. The book is divided into three parts, the first conceptual, the second on Sots-art poetry, and the third on Sots-art prose. While conceptualism is a vast international movement, Sots-art (with its focus on Soviet cultural history) reworks more local artistic practices and ideological cliches. At the same time, in its reflection of the specific cultural character of Russian conceptualism and Russian postmodernism as a whole, Sots-art articulates the crisis of relations between contemporary Eastern and Western cultural models. Both inside Russia, where the 1991 collapse of communism rendered the cultural landscape difficult to comprehend, and in Western scholarship, with its crisis of traditional Sovietological matrices, the examination of emergent models structuring the contemporary literary process is a task central to anunderstanding of Russian culture since the collapse of the "Great Utopia." Endquote provides original and informative guidance in this attempt.



Abstract art - Abstract art is now generally understood to mean art that does not depict objects in the natural world, but instead uses shapes and colours in a non-representational or subjective way. In the very early 20th century, the term was more often used to describe art, such as Cubist and Futurist art, that depicts real forms in a simplified or rather reduced way - keeping only an allusion of the original natural subject.
