Pieter Bruegel the Elder. Fall of the Rebel Angels. Art, Knowledge and Politics on the Eve of the Dutch Revolt
, [IT] Silvana , 2014 hardcover 240x170mm, 128p, 100 bw and col. illustrations. English edition ISBN 9788836629206.
Art, Knowledge and Politics on the Eve of the Dutch Revolt Pieter Bruegel the Elder's Fall of the Rebel Angels is the first comprehensive book on one of the most cherished masterpieces of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium in Brussels. It argues that with his Fall of the Rebel Angels (1562) Pieter Bruegel (died 1569) turned a traditional devotional theme into an innovative commentary on his own time, and situates the painting within the early modern cultures of knowledge and collecting. More particularly, it exposes that many of the hybrid falling angels are carefully composed of naturalia and artificialia, as they were collected in art and curiosity cabinets of the time. Bruegel's much noted emulation of Jheronymus Bosch was thus only part of his wider interest in collecting, inspecting, and imitating the artistic and natural world around him. This prompts an examination of the world at the time that Bruegel painted the Fall of the Rebel Angels: locally, in the urban and courtly centers of Antwerp and Brussels on the eve of the Dutch revolt, and globally, as the discovery of the New World irreversibly transformed the European perception of art and nature. Painted as a tale of hubris and pride, Bruegel's masterpiece becomes a meditation on the potential and danger of man's pursuit of art, knowledge and politics, a universal theme that has lost nothing of its power today. The lavishly illustrated book is based on extensive research sponsored by the Inter University Attraction Pool project P7/26 'City and Society in the Low Countries (ca. 1200 - ca. 1850)' (Federal Science Policy, Belgium)'.
Ai Weiwei: Life, Revolt, Poetry
, MER (Borgerhoff & Lamberigts), 2026 Paperback, 208 pagina's, 21.1 (hoogte) x 13.2 (breedte) x 1.7 (dikte) cm, English. New . ISBN 9789493551541.
Het leven van vader en zoon Ai Qing (1910-1996) en Ai Weiwei (1957) omspant meer dan honderd jaar geschiedenis; niet alleen van China, maar ook van de westerse wereld. Levens die bepaald werden door historische gebeurtenissen, politieke omstandigheden, familiale situaties en vooral door artistieke ontmoetingen. Voor Ai Qing was dit de poëzie van Emile Verhaeren, die hij in Parijs had leren kennen, en als eerste naar het Chinees vertaalde. Voor Ai Weiwei de kennismaking in New York met het werk van Marcel Duchamp en Andy Warhol, en hun ideeën die hij in de Chinese avant-garde van de jaren 1990 introduceerde. Life, Revolt, Poetry geeft een beeld van het artistieke parcours van vader en zoon. Het boek leest als twee parallelle verhalen die opvallend veel gelijkenissen vertonen. Beide kunstenaars komen ook in aanvaring met de Chinese autoriteiten: zowel Ai Qing als Ai Weiwei werden gevangengezet en verbannen. Zowel het boek als de tentoonstelling zijn opgevat als een hommage van Ai Weiwei aan zijn vader en aan Emile Verhaeren.
