‎Crossing Parallels Agostino Carracci, Hendrick Goltzius Graphische Sammlung ETH Z rich: 9. Dezember 2020 bis 14. M rz 2021 Agostino Carracci and Hendrick Goltzius were the leading engravers of the late 16th century ? one north and the other south of the Alps. They have not only achieved revolutionary achievements in technical terms, but have also had a lasting impact on the medium of copperplate engraving with the selection and design of their image content. While there are already numerous publications on Goltzius as well as on Carracci, the obvious comparison of the two great figures of the engraving around 1600 is undertaken here for the first time. In four detailed essays and catalog texts on all exhibited engravings, the amazing parallels in the life and work of the two masters are shown, their artistic development is comparatively analyzed and the readers eyes are sharpened for the sophistication of their virtuoso engraving technique.‎

‎, OUP Oxford, 2009 Hardcover, 348 pages, ENG., 240 x 165 x 25 mm, In Very Good condition, illustrated dustjacket, with b/w illustrations. ISBN 9780199532445.‎

‎Susan Whyman draws on a hidden world of previously unknown letter writers to explore bold new ideas about the history of writing, reading and the novel. Capturing actual dialogues of people discussing subjects as diverse as marriage, poverty, poetry, and the emotional lives of servants, The Pen and the People will be enjoyed by everyone interested in history, literature, and the intimate experiences of ordinary people. Based on over thirty-five previously unknown letter collections, it tells the stories of workers and the middling sort - a Yorkshire bridle maker, a female domestic servant, a Derbyshire wheelwright, an untrained woman writing poetry and short stories, as well as merchants and their families. Their ordinary backgrounds and extraordinary writings challenge accepted views that popular literacy was rare in England before 1800. This democratization of letter writing could never have occurred without the development of the Royal Mail. Drawing on new information gleaned from personal letters, Whyman reveals how the Post Office had altered the rhythms of daily life long before the nineteenth century. As the pen, the post, and the people became increasingly connected, so too were eighteenth-century society and culture slowly and subtly transformed.‎

‎LA VIE EN FRANCE AU MOYEN AGE‎

‎MINERVA 1981 in8. 1981. Broché. Ils s'étaient connus en 1944 à leur sortie de l'ombre... L'un paysan communiste autodidacte d'esprit missionnaire s'engageait dans le militantisme syndical et politique l'autre étudiant frustré de sa course aux diplômes s'élançait dans le journalisme de témoignage comme correspondant de guerre. Durant 40 ans ils se retrouvèrent ainsi aux quatre coins du monde le premier à la pointe des hautes affaires de l'agro-alimentaire le second à l'avant-scène du grand reportage. Et fidèles à leurs origines ils revenaient se replonger ensemble avec délices dans la fraîcheur intacte de leur première rencontre. Mais brutalement à la sortie d'un hiver -cinq autres déjà- sonna l'heure de la dernière... Et le paysan dit à l'étudiant : Si les médecins ne se sont pas trompés qui m'accordent de six mois à un an de vie je viendrai chez toi dans les Pyrénées en mai et nous finirons de parler tous les deux sur ta terrasse face aux sommets... Neuf jours après hélas il s'en allait... Alors surmontant sa peine et ses scrupules et avec l'appui de témoins de tous bords humbles ou grands l'étudiant s'est décidé à combler ce mou de conversation. Car il connaissait le désir profond du Gavroche de Noé qui avait relevé l'extravagant défi de jouer au milliardaire rouge : Je compte sur toi pour que l'on sache un jour qui j'étais vraiment... La révélation dans toute la rigueur de l'amitié est bouleversante‎

‎Zwart op Wit De peintre-graveurs van de Nederlandsche Etsclub,1885?1896. ‎

‎, Scriptum, 2024 hardcover, 160 pagina's, met prachtige illustraties. ISBN 9789083450704.‎

‎De 'vergeten' kunst van het etsen opnieuw op de kaart ze en. Dat is het belangrijkste uitgangspunt bij de oprichting van de Nederlandsche Etsclub in 1885 door een groep jonge, ambieuze kunstenaars onder leiding van Willem Witsen, Jan Veth en Antoon Derkinderen. Samen is men sterker was het idee en dus werden ook oudere kunstenaars als Jozef Isra ls, Anton Mauve en Jacob Maris uit. En De Etsclub nodigt vrouwelijke kunstenaars als Th rese Schwartze, Barbara van Houten, Etha Fles, Wally Moes en Suze Robertson uit om deel te nemen en breekt zo -bewust of niet- een lans voor vrouwelijke grafici. De Etsclub nam tussen 1885 en 1896 deel aan tentoonstellingen van hedendaagse kunst, maar organiseerde zelf ook tentoonstellingen in Amsterdam en DenHaag. Voor de internationale context werden daarvoor ook Engelse en Franse kunstenaars gevraagd: James Abbot McNeil Whistler, Francis Seymour Hadden, Charles Fran ois Daubigny, Theodoor Rousseau en Mary Cassa . Daarnaast gaf De Etsclub jaarlijks een map uit met minstens 10 werken van kunstenaarsleden. Donateurs kregen jaarlijks zo?n portefeuille. In de en jaar van haar bestaan werden 9 portefeuilles uitgeven met in totaal honderd werken van 28 verschillende kunstenaars Jaap Versteegh gaat uitgebreid in op de opkomst van de etstechniek in de negen ende eeuw in interna onale context. Vervolgens legt hij de focus op het ontstaan en verdere verloop van de Nederlandsche Etsclub. In een gedetailleerde geschiedenis laat hij de hoofdrolspelers veelal via citaten aan het woord. Suzanne Veldink behandelt in haar bijdrage de vrouwelijke leden van De Etsclub. De grafici Wally Moes, Th r se Schwartze, Barbara van Houten en Etha Fles hadden ieder hun eigen ontwikkeling en hun persoonlijke redenen om lid te worden. Daarnaast besteed zij uitgebreid aandacht Mary Cassa . Het boek besluit met een volledig ge llustreerde oeuvrecatalogus met alle prenten die door De Etsclub zijn uitgegeven, wat dit boek tot een onmisbaar naslagwerk maakt voor iedereen die ge nteresseerd is in Nederlandse grafiek.‎

‎De schilderijen van Johan Clarysse ogen verleidelijk en vervreemdend. Ze nodigen u uit om deel te nemen aan de zoektocht van de kunstenaar naar een kritische interpretatie van de menselijke verlangens, drijfveren en emoties. Dit boek is een esthetische belevenis en tegelijkertijd een psychologische uitdaging om de dingen niet als vanzelfsprekend te zien. En om dan in de dubbelzinnigheid de waarheid te zien. Warm aanbevolen.‎

‎Sven Augustijnen, Spectres / 9789461170095‎

‎, Bruxelles , Wiels, 2011 softcover, 240x160mm, 304p, English/ French edition , fine condition !! ISBN 9789461170095.‎

‎Sven Augustijnen lives and works in Brussels. These last years, Augustijnen has been working on Spectres, a long film (90 min), which analyses Belgian colonial history, in particular the assassination of Patrice Lumumba.100 years after Leopold II's death and 50 years after the Independence of Congo, the characters in Spectres (ex-colonials, royalists, psychiatrists, communists, believers, historians and anticolonialists), are still being haunted by the colonial past. Alongside the film, a number of other works created during Augustijnen's research will be presented, such as photographs, publications, sculptures, original documents, etc. Sven Augustijnen toont met zijn nieuwe project Spectres (geesten) een documentaire langspeelfilm (90 min) die een van de zwartste pagina's uit de periode van de dekolonisatie van Belgisch Congo behandelt: de moord op Patrice Lumumba. In Spectres is de verhaallijn opgebouwd als een omzwerving, een zoektocht. Het hoofdpersonage is ridder Jacques Brassinne de la Buissiere, een voormalige hoge functionaris en hoofdrolspeler in de politiek-humanitaire thriller die de dekolonisatie was. Hij treedt op als gids en symboolfiguur en laat zijn thesissen, die hij gedurende 30 jaar ontwikkelde over de ware toedracht van de feiten, aan bod komen tijdens de ontmoetingen en herdenkingen met de laatste overlevende betrokkenen en familieleden van de hoofdrolspelers. Naast de film worden ook nog andere werken getoond die tijdens Augustijnens' zoektocht ontstaan zijn, waaronder publicaties, foto's, sculpturen, originele documenten. ‎

‎Op 25 januari 2011 streken reporters van over de hele wereld neer op het Tahrirplein, om de roep van het volk om vrijheid en democratie uit eerste hand vast te leggen. Een revolte was begonnen in Egypte. Het is na twee jaar duidelijk dat het beeld dat door de media aangeboden wordt er niet in slaagt te vatten wat echt aan het gebeuren is. De documentaire outsiders-blik van het team van vier Belgische topfotografen (Zaza Bertrand, Filip Claus, Bieke Depoorter en Harry Gruyaert) wordt aangevuld met poetische bespiegelingen van dichters en proza-schrijvers.

‎Perspective as Practice. Renaissance Cultures of Optics‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, 512 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:143 b/w, 46 col., 2 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503581071.‎

‎Summary This book is about the development of optics and perspective between the fifteenth and seventeenth centuries. The point of departure of this book is the recognition of the polysemy of perspective, that is, the plurality of meanings of perspective. To bring forward the polysemy of perspective, this book explores the history of perspectiva in terms of practices, a conglomerate of material, social, literary and reproductive practices, through which knowledge claims in perspective were produced, promoted, legitimated and circulated in and through a variety of sites and institutions. The ways optical knowledge was used by different groups in different places (such as the university classroom, the anatomist's dissection table, the goldsmith's workshop, and the astronomer's observatory) defined the meanings of Renaissance perspective. As this period was characterized by widespread 'optical literacy', perspective was defined in different ways in different places and sites by various groups of practitioners. Most interestingly, sites such as the theatre, the instrument maker's workshop and the courtly garden were home to practices of perspective which have remained on the margin, or even completely invisible, in the historiographies of optics and perspective. The book also brings out the differences between codifications of perspectiva and practice. There were a variety of non-Albertian constructions to create the illusion of space, and other types of optical knowledge were as important to artists as the geometry of perspective.

‎Making of Technique in the Arts. Theories and Practice from the Sixteenth to the Twentieth Century‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 206 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:35 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503598994.‎

‎Summary What is technique in the arts? Now widely used to refer to the practical aspects of art making, ?technique' was a neologism in the vernacular, and started to appear in treatises on arts and sciences from around 1750. Rooted in the Greek techne?, which was translated routinely as ?art' until the mid-eighteenth century, technique referred to processes of making or doing and their products. Described previously as ?art', ?methods', ?manners' or ?mechanics', techniques were recorded in text with the intention of documenting or transmitting practical skills and knowledge. This book bridges the gap between the changing concept of technique and the practices currently described by it. It explores the linguistic, philosophical, and pedagogic history of technique in the arts, answering the question why the term ?technique' first emerged around 1750, and exploring how its meaning to artists, art theorists, and natural philosophers changed until the twentieth century.
