Rogier Vandeweghe established himself as an independent potter in Sint Andries, near Bruges, after leaving the ceramic workshop Per Ignem, which he had founded with his brother Laurent in 1947. Under the name Amphora, from 1960 on his quickly expanding workshop produced entirely hand-thrown vessels. His modern forms ? with glazes developed in-house and experimental firing techniques ? rapidly earned the workshop an international reputation. Participation in major contemporary exhibitions led to numerous awards and acquisitions by leading ceramic museums across Europe. In 1975 all production ceased, and the workshop faded into obscurity. The present publication is a tribute to Rogier Vandeweghe and his wife,Myranna Pyck, for their unwavering commitment and their continuous quest for high-quality modern beauty in their ceramics. MARC HEIREMANS is a renowned expert on Murano glass and ceramics. He is a member of the Royal Chamber of Antiquarians of Belgium and of the Belgium Chamber of Art Experts. Heiremans is also author of various Arnoldsche publications on Murano Glass and the volume Art Ceramics. Pioneers in Flanders 1938?1978. Rogier Vandeweghe etablierte sich als selbstst ndiger Keramiker in Sint Andries, in der N he von Br gge, nachdem er die 1947 mit seinem Bruder Laurent gegr ndete Keramikwerkstatt Per Ignem verlassen hatte. Die schnell wachsende Werkstatt mit dem Namen Amphora produzierte ab 1960 ausschlie lich handgedrehte Gef e. Moderne Formen mit selbst entwickelten Glasuren ? in experimentellem Brennverfahren gefertigt ? machten die Werkstatt international bekannt. Die Teilnahme an wichtigen zeitgen ssischen Ausstellungen f hrte zu zahlreichen Auszeichnungen und Ank ufen durch f hrende Keramikmuseen in ganz Europa. 1975 wurde die Produktion eingestellt und die Werkstatt geriet in Vergessenheit. Die vorliegende Publikation ist eine Hommage an Rogier Vandeweghe und seine Frau Myranna Pyck f r ihr unerm dliches Engagement und ihr st ndiges Streben nach hochwertiger, moderner Sch nheit in ihren Keramiken.

Lieve De Pelsmaeker is allicht voor velen een onbekende naam. Hoewel in de kunstwereld het cynische gezegde gangbaar is dat een goede kunstenaar een dode kunstenaar is, mag men om bekend te blijven niet te vroeg sterven. Dit overkwam Lieve de Pelsmaeker. Nochtans heeft ze een rol gespeeld in de geschiedenis van de kunst die het medium keramiek als een volwaardige sculpturale expressievorm beschouwt. Met daarenboven een avant-gardistische dimensie. Vanaf 1964 was ze aanwezig in collectieve tentoonstellingen die men ? ook vandaag nog ? gerust internationaal mag noemen. Ze begon begin in de jaren zestig als materiekunstenaar die de natuurlijke dimensie van het keramische ten volle liet zien via abstracte vormen. Sculpturen die de organische verwantschap toonden met de lavastenen. Een vulkaan is immers een natuurlijke oven die met een bijzonder snelle dynamiek nieuw gesteente creeert. Dit in tegenstelling tot het feit dat we gewoon zijn te veronderstellen dat stenen ouderdom hebben. Lieve De Pelsmaeker herschiep dit proces in haar oven. Ze was daarin toen vernieuwend maar niet uniek. Dit laatste was ze wel wanneer ze een combinatie maakte tussen keramiek en assemblagekunst. Ze gebruikte hiervoor afgedankte stukken van de elektriciteitsindustrie zoals stopcontacten, zekeringen, toppen die draden in de goede richting hielpen leiden enz? Nog experimenteler werd ze toen ze haar keramische muziekinstrumenten maakte. Ze gaf hieraan de naam ?sonomobielen?. Deze waren niet louter functioneel, maar konden ook als volwaardige sculpturen doorgaan. Sonomobielen zijn objecten in keramiek die, zoals hun naam het zegt, bewegen en geluiden voortbrengen. De voortgebrachte klanken, al dan niet in concertverband, doen denken aan de eenvoudige muziek van primitieve culturen. Anderzijds verwijzen deze klanken naar de geluiden uit de kinderjaren, wanneer men plezier vond in het horen van een rammelaar en het ratelen van speelkaarten tegen de spaken van het eerste fietsje. Het werk van Lieve De Pelsmaeker moet door verschillende zintuigen simultaan ervaren worden, zonder de totaliteit te laten verloren gaan, zoniet wordt het zinloos. Een buisje is niet zomaar een buisje, het is een hoorn, een luidspreker, een klankkast, maar ook een sierlijke vorm, gemaakt uit korrelige tastbare materie. Je kan zien, voelen en horen. Kortom, het is een ruimtelijke ervaring, die aanzet tot mijmeren, zodat de artistieke manifestatie innerlijk voortgezet wordt. De toeschouwer-bespeler geniet van een meerdimensionale ervaring: visueel, tactiel en auditief. De toeschouwer blijft niet meer louter contemplatief, maar hij wordt opgenomen in de totaliteit van het artistiek gebeuren: de happening rond het object. Logos, een werkgroep voor geengageerde avant-gardemuziek is er ooit (1975) in geslaagd een ?sonomobilofonie? te componeren en uit te voeren. Het geheel kan een interessant experiment in de elektronische muziek genoemd worden. Deze toepasbaarheid doet geen afbreuk aan de sculpturale waarde van het werk van De Pelsmaeker .

Summary How did societies change between the Early Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age? And what was the impetus that led to these changes - social contacts and innovation, intergenerational contacts, or perhaps simply adaptation? Taking these questions as its starting point, this richly detailed volume explores four different regions of southern Poland to compare and contrast the mechanisms that drove socio-cultural change in the region between the second and the first half of the first millennium BC. Drawing on standardized sets of archaeological data, the chapters gathered here examine the interplay of different factors influencing cultural change across five key parameters: environment; settlement patterns; settlement organization; economy; and material culture. The result is a beautifully illustrated volume that offers important insights into Central and Eastern European prehistory, made accessible for an English-speaking audience.

Summary This volume traces Egisto Macchi's creative process for the soundtrack of The Assassination of Trotsky directed by Joseph Losey (1972). Through a close reading of the sources preserved at the Egisto Macchi Collection at the Institute of Music, Fondazione Giorgio Cini, (Venice) and at the Joseph Losey Collection at the British Film Institute (London), the book sheds light on the first collaboration between Losey and Macchi, which continued in the following years for the film Mr. Klein (1976). Why did Losey choose this apparently unknown composer? How did an avant-garde composer approach the cinematic system? What kind of audio-visual experience did Macchi and Losey explore through this film? To answer these questions, the volume deals with different aspects of the creative process, combining letters, notes, drafts, sketches, and the final orchestral scores. The introductory essay presents Egisto Macchi within the context of the Roman avant-garde and the cinematic environments of the Sixties and early-Seventies. The volume is complemented by a wide selection of sources reproduced in facsimile.

In Spring 2012 the Museo d'Arte of Lugano will present in Villa Ciani a wide retrospective of the work of Tony Cragg (Liverpool, 1949), one of the most significant artists in the contemporary scene. Through some forty sculptures and assemblages, and a hundred drawings and etchings, the exhibition will retrace the artist's creative history from the late Seventies up to the most recent works. The exhibition in Lugano, and its accompanying catalogue, will however not be a simple presentation of the wide range of visual ideas and forms generated by the artist in the course of the years. The selection of the works on display and their sequence will also allow, together with the works on paper, to grasp the logic and the creative processes which lie at the basis of the most revolutionary shapes in contemporary sculpture. The catalogue will also include texts by Marco Franciolli and Guido Comis, as well as an interview to Tony Cragg never published before. English/ IT edition

Summary In the essays collected in this volume, leading scholars from Croatia, the Czech Republic, and Poland, as well musicologists from Western Europe, take on the challenge of fulfilling a historiographical and cultural gap in music history by restoring the place of the countries of Central Europe that, as Milan Kundera put it succinctly, 'vanished from the map of the West'. The opportunity to consider 'other' renaissances enlarges the historiographical perspectives of Renaissance musicology, going beyond the traditional focus on the Franco-Flemish or Franco-Italian axis, and opens new scenarios on unexplored Renaissance music. What was it that happened on a cultural and musical level on the Dalmatian coast - influenced by the economic boost of a powerful Venice? The same question emerges when considering Habsburg Prague and its renewed, central role in the European political theatre, and as a reaffirmed capital that inaugurated a period of economic and cultural renaissance for the Bohemian Kingdom. How did the secularization process evolve in these territories, caught between the religion wars following the Counter-Reformation in the West, and the Turkish threat on the East? What peculiar features does the musical production of these territories reveal? The preference accorded to the expression Renaissance Music is not to be intended as a shortcut. The intention of the contributing scholars is to focus on, and to handle independently, the endogenous cultural production without considering it only as a phenomenon of importation or as the mere imitation of an existing model. In this way, borders reveal a dialectical function in the context of musical Humanism, revealing here, maybe for the first time, an authentic European dimension. The essays in this volume were undertaken within the framework of the European programme EACEA - Culture Programme 2007-2013 Aux confins de l'Humanisme musical: monde slave et culture m diterran enne, developed between 2010 and 2012 by the Centre d' tudes sup rieures de la Renaissance in Tours, the Matica Hrvastka - Ogranak Dubrovnik (Mediterranean Study Centre of Dubrovnik), the Univerzita Karlova v Praze, and the University of Palermo.

In this book, Clemente Marconi provides a new interpretation for the use of figural decoration in Greek temples of the archaic period, through a study of the archaic metopes of Selinus. The study of figural decoration on Greek temples has traditionally been identified with the broader study of architectural sculpture. At the same time, the original, articulated appearance of archaic temples has been fragmented into a discussion of individual types. Marconi argues against both the typological approach and the tendency to investigate style and iconography as two aspects unrelated to the cultural and social background within which temple decoration operated. He explores the relation between style and function and examines the function of figures on temples within the cultural and social context of the communities for which these images were created. Critical to this exploration are the reintegration of the figures into the fabric of buildings, the space of archaic sanctuaries and cities, and the ritual dimension that represented the context for the reception of the figural decoration of Greek temples.

Summary In the study of the ancient world, Babylon can be considered as the most impressive representation, historically, archaeologically, and in literature, of urbanism in the Near East. This first example of an urban centre and its cultural heritage ? both tangible and intangible ? provides a focal point for discussions of historical and cultural memory in the region. The eleven contributions gathered here draw together multidisciplinary research into Babylonian culture, exploring the epistemic foundations, contacts, resilience, and cultural transmission of the city and its milieu from ancient times up until the modern day. Through this approach, this volume is able to support conversations concerning the historical and cultural memory of Babylon and promote a dialogue that cuts across, and unites, both cultures and academic disciplines.
