Nineteenth-Century Programme Music. Creation, Negotiations, Reception
, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, xiii + 489 pages, Size:210 x 260 mm, Illustrations:16 b/w, 87 tables b/w., Languages: English, German, Italian. ISBN 9782503583464.
Summary The history of programme music stretches back centuries, but only in the nineteenth century did it enter into widespread use. Indeed, seminal compositions by Ludwig van Beethoven and Fr d ric Chopin to Arnold Schoenberg and Jean Sibelius have helped programme music to secure a position within the artistic pantheon, albeit not without bringing a significant amount of controversy in tow. Yet despite its ubiquitous presence in the nineteenth century, scholarship has not adequately articulated the full extent of programme music's range and impact. This volume explores the diverse ways in which programme music was defined, historicized, practiced, disseminated, and judged. It considers how biography, tradition, and function informed the compositional approaches taken by Beethoven, Joseph Joachim, Ethel Smyth, and Zygmunt Noskowski, among others. It draws on extra-musical elements-novels, poems, lithographs, and other forms of creative expression-to determine the ontological profile of works by Chopin, Franz Liszt, Antonio Pasculli, Piotr Tchaikovsky, and Leo? Jan ?ek. It situates compositions by Johannes Brahms, Gustav Mahler, Sibelius, and Schoenberg within the ongoing discourse around Hanslickian absolute and Lisztian programme music. And it visits major European cities to highlight the critical streams of reception toward the end of the century. Throughout, it repeatedly engages with questions of generic identity (with special attention given to the symphonic poem), issues of narrativity and topicality, and considerations of form and structure.

Jonathan Meese DR.50/50FITTYMEESE (Pump Away Reality)
Antwerpen , Tim Van Laere Books 2020, 2020 Bound, 136 pages, English. 25,5 x 20,5 cm, hardcover, Engels ISBN 9789464004014.
fourth solo exhibition of Jonathan Meese. The title DR. 50/50FITTYMEESE (Pump Away Reality) refers to the celebration of Meese?s 50th birthday on the day of the opening. The German artist Jonathan Meese (b. 1970, Tokyo, lives and works in Berlin and Hamburg) is presenting a new series of paintings and drawings Women this theme seems unusual for Meese at first sight, whose work is mainly identified with rather masculine dominated subjects like world history, original myths and heroic legends. On closer examination one discovers, though, that from the beginning women play an important role in Meese?s painterly and also sculptural work. His early paintings from 2000, show an almost classical approach of act painting, following the tradition of the femme fatale. Although his artistic expression has changed to a more and more abstract expressionist style, his women still often appear in the role of an enchantress, seductress, vampire or witch. But Meese was never really concerned with the destructive power of the female sex inherent in this theme. Nor was he intent upon gender-specific questions. He even queries them in his performances, playing the role of a woman (Zarathustra ? Die Gestalten sind unterwegs with Martin Wuttke in 2006), and in paintings showing figures with genitals of both sexes. To Meese the femme fatale is only interesting as an archetype of art, as a symbol of power. That applies to the image of the mother, too. Meese depicted his own mother, Brigitte, in many portraits and installations (MOR with TAL R in 2005)?as an animal, a general, a vampire and the goddess Isis and many more. Following Nietzsche, the mother in the artist?s eyes is ?the industry of nature.? Known for the deconstruction of pictorial codes, Meese renews in his latest work the persistent power of often clich d symbols which relate to the women as much as to love, the origin and nature: the heart, the spiral and the strawberry.
Jonathan Meese: Kunst ist Chef.
, Tim Van Laere Books, 2017 hardcover, 54 pages, kleurenillustraties, 25,5 21,5 cm, English. Fine! ISBN X.
Jonathan Meese ( 1970 Tokyo, lives and and works in Berlin and Hamburg) is renowned for his multi-faceted work, including wildly exuberant paintings, installations, ecstatic performances and a powerful body of sculptures in a variety of media. For this exhibition Jonathan Meese is presenting a new series of works focusing on science fiction. His works are starring Mr. Spock, ufologist Robert Dean, Darth Vader, Stanley Kubrick, UFO?s, John Boorman?s Zardoz, Edgar Wallace and extraterrestrial lifeforms. Science fiction has grown as a genre not only concerned with science, but by the 70?s also with consequences. It asked ?What if?? ?What if the world in which we live is not the reality?? ?What if there was an alternative universe with different laws and institutions As Rod Serling defines: fantasy is the impossible made probable. Science fiction is the improbable made possible.? This statement can also be made about Art. In contrary to culture, Art has no boundaries. ?E.T? VS. ?DR. IDEOLOGY?, Art vs. culture. As Jonathan Meese states in his manifest: ?In the exhibition ?E.T.? VS. ?DR. IDEOLOGY? (JOHNNY FUZZY M. SINCLAIR) there will be many paintings, a round table, sculptures, photos, manifests and maybe a video. All this material is FUTURE. All this material has no Ideology. All this material is LOVE. All this material is Dictatorship of Art. Johnny Meese builds a Space-Ship of Total Art. The Gallery-Space is the Commander?s Headquarters of Total Art. Art is Total Love. The ?Round Table? is the wheel of Total Animalism. Johnny M. is the 1. Soldier of Total Art.?
Jonathan Meese: Spitzenmeesige Women (Schniddeldiddelson)

In his second solo exhibition at the Tim Van Laere Gallery, the German artist Jonathan Meese (b. 1970, Tokyo, lives and works in Berlin and Hamburg) is presenting a new series of paintings and drawings focusing on women. They are starring his mother, Barbarella, Lolita, Fr ulein K.U.N.S.T., Scarlett Johansson, Mumina, Nofretete and Cara Delevingne, who currently is not only Britain?s favourite Topmodel but also Topgurner?making fun of herself by playing with her face, showing what a useful mask it is: a subversive, humorous and playful performative act Meese deeply relates to in his art. Women?this theme seems unusual for Meese at first sight, whose work is mainly identified with rather masculine dominated subjects like world history, original myths and heroic legends. On closer examination one discovers, though, that from the beginning women play an important role in Meese?s painterly and also sculptural work. His early paintings from 2000, show an almost classical approach of act painting, following the tradition of the femme fatale.

Faut-il manger les animaux?
Editions de l'Olivier 2009, in/8 broché, 362 pages.
"Convoquant souvenirs d'enfance, données statistiques et arguments philosophiques, Jonathan Safran Foer interroge les croyances, les mythes familiaux et les traditions nationales avant de se lancer lui-même dans une vaste enquête.Entre une expédition clandestine dans un abattoir, une recherche sur les dangers du lisier de porc et la visite d'une ferme où l'on élève les dindes en pleine nature, J.S. Foer explore tous les degrés de l'abomination contemporaine tout en se penchant sur les derniers vestiges d'une civilisation qui respectait encore l'animal. Choquant, drôle, inattendu, ce livre d'un des jeunes écrivains américains les plus doués de sa génération a déjà suscité passions et polémiques aux Etats-Unis et en Europe."
Pleasures of Antiquity; British Collections of Greece of Rome
, Yale, 2003 Hardcover with dusjacket 348 pages Illustrated. ISBN 9780300098549.
A comprehensive history of antiquity collecting in Great Britain. Jonathan Scott gives portraits of the principal collectors, describes the mechanics of the art trade and collecting, and takes us to beautiful sculpture galleries that were created by such distinguished architects as Robert Adam. By the nineteenth century, connoisseurs from the British Isles had assembled the richest collections of classical antiquities outside Rome. The galleries they created to house the spectacular Greek and Roman statues, ornaments, vases, bronzes, and gems were in many instances designed to be as magnificent as the artworks themselves. This delightful book examines how the great British antiquities collections were put together and displayed, from Lord Arundel?s collection of marbles in the seventeenth century to the Grand Tour acquisitions of the eighteenth century and the greatest art acquisition of all time, that of the Elgin Marbles from the Acropolis. In this book, the first comprehensive history of the collecting of antiquities in Great Britain, Jonathan Scott gives portraits of the principal collectors, describes the mechanics of the art trade and collecting, and takes us to beautiful sculpture galleries that were created by such distinguished architects as Robert Adam and Jeffry Wyatville. With a generous selection of illustrations of the interiors of collectors? houses, the book presents in unprecedented detail the story of private British antiquities collectors and their truly remarkable collections.

In de afgelopen twee decennia hebben historici van de vroeg-moderne tijd zich intensief beziggehouden met de oorsprong en definitie van moderne idealen van 'huis' en 'thuis' en de daarmee samenhangende begrippen als gezin, priv -leven, intimiteit, huiselijkheid en gezelligheid. Velen hebben daarbij de fundamentele invloed van Nederlandse maatschappelijke ontwikkelingen op de geschiedenis van deze idee n en gevoelens benadrukt. Deel 51 van het Nederlands Kunsthistorisch Jaarboek kijkt specifiek naar de bijdragen van Noord- en Zuid-Nederlandse architecten, kunstenaars, verzamelaars, huizenbezitters en huizenbewoners aan de veelzijdige vormen, inrichtingspraktijken en functies van het vroeg-moderne huis

ISBN X.
Ongenae werkte in de jaren 30 als leerling tekenaar bij een reclamebureau. Vanaf de Tweede Wereldoorlog begon hij onder invloed van schilders als Kandinsky, Picasso en Juan Gris werken te maken die al bijna abstract te noemen zijn. Vanaf 1951 werkte hij tijdelijk in het Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. Tijdens het opbouwen van een tentoonstelling over De Stijl in dat museum zag Ongenae voor het eerst werk van Mondriaan. Zijn werk kreeg vanaf dat moment steeds minder kleur en het werd meer en meer gestileerder. Vanaf de jaren 60 ontwikkelde Ongenae een meer eigen stijl door met gekleurde rechthoeken een zekere dynamiek aan zijn composities te geven. Hij behoorde in 1955 tot de oprichters van het Nederlandse kunstenaarscollectief de Liga Nieuwe Beelden.

In 1862, he was awarded two-thirds of the Grand Prix of the Paris Academy for his work in the theory of fourth-order plane curves... Beside geometry, Jonquières studied algebra and the theory of numbers, in which he continued the tradition of French mathematics. Here again his results form a series of detailed supplements to the work of others and reflect Jonquiere's inventiveness in calculating...".

Eugeen Van Mieghem (1875-1930) werd tijdens zijn leven geconfronteerd met diverse kunststromingen. Tijdens zijn studie aan de Antwerpse academie werd het onderricht er volledig gecontroleerd door de epigonen van Henri Leys. Vernieuwers volgens het impressionisme of pointillisme werd het leven moeilijk gemaakt en zij verlieten de metropool om zich in Brussel te vestigen. De oprichting van Kunst van Heden in 1905 betekende een keerpunt in het Antwerpse artistieke leven, dat langzaam maar zeker opnieuw internationale aansluiting vond. De Eerste Wereldoorlog maakte een abrupt einde aan de stijgende belangstelling naar zijn oeuvre. Zijn oorlogstekeningen werden in 1919 vergeleken met die van Kollwitz, Forain en Steinlen. Na de Groote Oorlog kreeg ook in ons land het expressionisme meer aandacht. Kunst van Heden wijdde haar salon van 1926 volledig aan de moderne Franse kunst. Van Mieghem bestudeerde er belangrijke werken van o.a. Picasso, Matisse, Chagall, Modigliani, Zadkine en Rouault, een confrontatie die een bijzondere invloed op hem uitoefende. De intimistische en religieuze onderwerpen, naast prachtige bloemstukken en stillevens die de kunstenaar onder invloed van de art deco in de beslotenheid van Sint-Paulusstraat 30 maakte, zou hij echter nooit exposeren. Dit boek geeft een uniek overzicht van zijn artistieke zoektocht in die boeiende periode van zijn leven.
