For many decades, specialists in Romanesque and Early Gothic art and architecture have questioned the usefulness of traditional stylistic terminology. It is regarded as having limited relevance insofar as it fails to reflect the complexity and plurality of the period under discussion. Nor does it embrace functional, formal or iconographic specificities. Despite these deficiencies, we still have no better way of referring to the art of the period than Romanesque, Late Romanesque or Early Gothic which we make yet more cumbersome by adding a geographical or political term. Of the various media which were affected by artistic innovation in Europe during the second half of the 12th century, particular attention has been paid to stained glass, manuscript illumination, metalwork and enamel. Monumental sculpture was equally subject to profound change during the period, in addition to developing in directions that were largely independent of other media. As a result, late Romanesque sculpture extends across the period from 1140 to 1220, from Saxony to Galicia, though it is still impossible to encapsulate in a single statement what this complex network represented. However, the attainment of a compelling naturalism does seem to have been a shared aspiration among Latin European sculptors. Emerging Naturalism: Contexts and Narratives in European Sculpture 1140?1220 offers a panoramic analysis of this artistic landscape, focused on a central issue in medieval European artistic production. To narrow this field of study, the book concentrates on the innovations and solutions adopted in the great church workshops of western Europe. Gerardo Boto Varela teaches art history at the Universitat de Girona (Spain), is leader of the international research group Templa, and scientific editor of the journal Codex Aquilarensis. Revista de Arte Medieval. His research concentrates on spatial, pictorial, and liturgical aspects of Spanish ecclesiastical architecture from the tenth to thirteenth centuries, as well as on dynastic tombs and memorial culture in Medieval Iberia. Marta Serrano Coll teaches art history at the Universitat Rovira i Virgili in Tarragona (Spain) and specializes in Medieval architecture and sculpture, particularly in Catalonia. Her research interests include the display of power through artworks and royal patronage in the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages. In addition, she has published in the field of Romanesque sculpture and hagiographical studies. John McNeill teaches at Oxford University?s Department of Continuing Education, and is Honorary Secretary of the British Archaeological Association, for whom he has edited and contributed to volumes on Anjou, King?s Lynn and the Fens, the medieval cloister, and English medieval chantries. He was instrumental in establishing a biennial International Romanesque Conference Series and has a particular interest in the design of medieval monastic precincts.

Summary This book examines the production, patronage, and use of sculptures made in the Low Countries between 1400 and 1600. Two questions frame the book: 'Why did Sculpture from the Low countries matter' and 'Why will Sculpture from the Low Countries matter for future research'. Answers to these questions will be offered in a coherent and richly illustrated study which considers Sculpture as a pivotal subject field within Art Historical discourse.

Une somme exceptionnelle sur la sculpture romane par l?ancien conservateur en chef du d partement des Sculptures du mus e du Louvre. Une iconographie d?une grande qualit photographique. Si la sculpture romane a pu faire l'objet de nombreux ouvrages sur telles coles ou r gions donn es, les livres g n raux sont plus rares. Dans la revue Connaissances des arts = Jean-Ren Gaborit, apr s avoir patronn , en 2005 au mus e du Louvre, une exposition consacr e l'art roman, se devait de nous offrir ce livre en tout point remarquable. partir de chapitres clairement d finis, n' ludant aucune des questions (telles que sources, influences et significations) que soul vent les multiples r alisations romanes, l'auteur parvient offrir au lecteur une synth se tr s dense et vivante faisant un large appel la typologie largie ainsi a tous les types de r alisations dans l'Europe enti re avec, souvent, des oeuvres peu connues du public fran ais, la sculpture romane retrouve ici une grandeur laquelle participent des reproductions de qualit exceptionnelle, qui font aussi de ce livre savant un ouvrage somptueux. M me si la d finition de l?art roman et, plus encore peut- tre, sa d nomination, font l?objet de contestations, le ph nom ne que recouvre ce terme, c'est- -dire le profond renouvellement qui se manifeste, dans toute l?Europe occidentale, entre la fin du Xe si cle et le milieu du XIIe si cle, tant dans l?architecture que dans les autres domaines de la cr ation artistique, appara t comme une vidence. L?une des caract ristiques de ce renouvellement est incontestablement l?importance croissante donn e la sculpture, avec en particulier l?extraordinaire essor de la sculpture monumentale dont on peut voir des t moignages jusque dans les difices les plus modestes. Apr s divers essais, parfois assez timides, durant la p riode dite du premier art roman , la sculpture conna t, d s les derni res d cennies du XIe si cle, un soudain panouissement qui culmine dans la premi re moiti du XIIe si cle avec un grand nombre de r alisations majeures : portails et fa ades, clo tres, d cors int rieurs. Mais la recherche constante de nouvelles formules et, sans doute aussi, la volont d?accompagner les innovations dans l?art de b tir ont amen les sculpteurs multiplier les exp riences ; les rapports entre sculpture et architecture sont ainsi pens s de diff rentes fa ons ; le traitement de la figure humaine volue et l?ornement se diversifie. De nombreux ouvrages ont t consacr s, partiellement ou totalement, la sculpture romane ; parce qu?il est bien difficile de dresser un tableau chronologique coh rent d?un art dont l? volution, sur une p riode relativement br ve, n?a rien de lin aire, l?approche choisie a t essentiellement r gionale, mettant l?accent sur la diversit , bien r elle qui caract rise les principales provinces de l?art roman. Le pr sent ouvrage tente une autre d marche : mettre en valeur, par une analyse plus typologique, ce qui fait l?unit de la sculpture romane : sources d?inspirations communes, recours aux m mes mod les (m me si l?interpr tation en est tr s vari e), adaptation aux m mes sch mas iconographiques, solutions parall les adopt es pour r pondre aux m mes n cessit s. La connaissance de la sculpture romane permet sans doute, du fait de ce m lange d?unit et de diversit , de mieux comprendre la culture de la soci t des XIe et XIIe si cles, soci t marqu e par la violence, que les structures de la f odalit divisent et cloisonnent mais laquelle, en d pit de crises profondes, un certain renouveau conomique et l?omnipr sence de l? glise, travers la constitution du r seau paroissial, l?action des ordres monastiques et les p lerinages, ont donn une r elle unit .

In short, everyone involved in creating this catalogue and the exhibition it records deserves praise. The volume covers a vast terrain, helpfully summarizing the current state of knowledge on a great many objects and providing a road map for further study by scholars and students of the material (and indeed of ?materiality? writ large). In doing so, the catalogue provides a stellar example of the benefits of stepping outside of the intellectual taxonomies that so often constrain scholarship: our assumptions about the firmness of divisions between stylistic periods, geographic regions, and categories of objects. It compellingly demonstrates that those boundaries are far more permeable than they often might seem, and that they can distract us from important commonalities that transcend them.? (Stephen Perkinson, in Historians of Netherlandish Art Reviews, 09/2023) BIO Marjan Debaene is Head of Collections at Museum M in Leuven. SUMMARY Alabaster was a popular material in European sculpture, especially from the fourteenth to the seventeenth century. Its relative availability and easy to sculpt characteristic made it a highly suitable material for both large monuments and small objects, for mass production and individual works, from England to Spain and France to the Netherlands, Germany and Poland. This material has been the subject of multidisciplinary research in various European countries for several decades. The research combines material analyses with historical and art-historical approaches. This publication, made for the occasion of the large exhibition on the theme at M Leuven opening on October 14th, brings together all renown specialists on the material and sheds light on the many facets of alabaster, such as its physical and chemical properties as well as its translucency, its whiteness, its softness, and its beautiful sheen, all of which made it a popular material used in different types of sculpture from the middle ages to the baroque, all throughout Europe, ranging from bespoke tombs, funerary monuments and commissioned sculptures and altarpieces to commercially interesting formulas such as English or Mechelen alabaster reliefs.

In the first book ever devoted to the sculpture of Venice?s most famous Renaissance marble carver, Markham Schulz integrates all biographical data from primary and secondary sources and criticism of every epoch, with her own first-hand study of Tullio?s work over the course of forty years, to create a comprehensive picture of Tullio?s sculpture - its characteristics and iconography, its sources, development, and influence - within the context of Renaissance Venetian art. At the same time, she explores Tullio?s relations to his father Pietro and his brother Antonio, both renowned sculptors in their own right. The text is accompanied by 339 newly made and largely full-page illustrations, many of sculptures which, on account of their height and inaccessibility, have never been photographed before. Thus, every detail of the author?s meticulous and pellucid analyses is made manifest to the reader by illustrations, which not only meet the most exacting standards for the photography of sculpture, but also provide a treasury of gorgeous images. Educated in the History of Art at Radcliffe College, Harvard University, and the Institute of Fine Arts, NYU, Anne Markham Schulz has taught at the University of Illinois at Chicago Circle, Brown University, and the Universita Federico II at Naples.

This publication is the second volume of the Census of Gothic Sculpture in America and incorporates over 650 works of sculpture located in twelve states and twenty museums in the Midwest, serving as a basis for new interpretations and new meanings. With the publication of this second volume of the Census of Gothic Sculpture in America the project has examined over 650 works of sculpture in stone and wood located in twelve states and twenty museums. The richness and inclusiveness of this material - although for the most part existing in fragmentary condition and removed from its original context - constitutes a deposit of the past in which Americans have been free to imagine a culture far removed from their direct experience. This catalogue stands for a late twentieth-century interpretation of the European Middle Ages. At the same time, by presenting all the documentary and physical information now available to us, the authors hope to provide a basis on which new interpretations can be built and new meanings created.

Summary Around 1600, a new style of sculpture started to evolve and flourish in Central Europe and in the German-speaking lands. Dramatic wood and stone figures peopled the palaces, gardens and churches of Munich, Berlin, Dresden, D sseldorf, Vienna and Prague. These great works of art are little known outside Germany and Austria, partly because their colour and vivacity are so astoundingly different from the sculpture that was being produced in Italy, France and elsewhere in Northern Europe at that time. They are overpowering, and amongst the greatest works of art produced in Europe in the seventeenth century. This groundbreaking book explores their history and conveys their visual power.

Few medieval images are as iconic, or as challenging, as the life-sized sculptural crucifixes that emerged in the Holy Roman Empire at the end of the tenth century. Striking at the fundamental mysteries of Christianity ? the idea of a God made flesh, who died on the Cross and was resurrected after three days ? these objects were made to attract attention and inspire veneration, and they exist in uneasy tension with medieval anxieties about idolatry and the cult of images. This volume presents new research on the Boston Crucifix, the earliest medieval crucifix in North America and one of the most significant examples of the genre, in dialogue with new directions in this field as a whole. Essays on the history, theology, style, condition, and provenance of early wood crucifixes are presented here together for the first time in a format that is intended as a major scholarly resource, but will also prove accessible to students and non-specialists who are curious about the origins of monumental crucifixes in the High Middle Ages. Shirin Fozi (PhD Harvard University) is assistant professor of the History of Art and Architecture at the University of Pittsburgh. Gerhard Lutz (PhD Technische Universit t, Berlin) is associate director and curator at the Dommuseum Hildesheim. The editors have invited essays from internationally recognized authors who are active on both sides of the Atlantic, taking special care to include the perspectives of conservators, curators, and other scholars of medieval art.
