Kati Heck wordt beschouwd als een erfgename van het Duitse expressionisme. Haar werk doet denken aan de bars, dansers en acteurs van Otto Dix en George Grosz, net als aan de oude meesters. Ze synthetiseert stijlen en is net zo goed een abstracte expressionist als een realist. Delen van haar schilderijen zijn minutieus weergegeven op gestikte doeken, met een unieke virtuositeit en acute aandacht voor detail, terwijl andere delen abstracter weergegeven of zelfs gebeeldhouwd worden. De manier waarop ze niet-traditionele materialen en alledaagse objecten in innovatieve en eigenzinnige combinaties verwerkt, herinnert aan Robert Rauschenberg. Hecks portretten belichamen een diepe, overtuigende en sociale visie, en zijn tegelijk ondoorgrondelijk persoonlijk. De weergegeven onderwerpen zijn meer dan enkel acteurs, het zijn meestal zelfportretten en personen uit haar directe omgeving. Haar werk werd onlangs geexposeerd in CAC Malaga en Mary Boone Gallery New York, en wordt de komende maanden getoond in Expo Chicago en het Antwerpse M HKA. Met tekstbijdragen van onder meer Ann Demeester (Frans Hals Museum/De Hallen Haarlem) en wijlen Jan Hoet, een verhaal door Woody Allen en een gesprek met Luc Tuymans.

Rooted in the Symbolist tradition of the fin-de-siecle and drawn to the avant-garde, Leon Spilliaert (1881-1946), was a loner who never occupied a clear place in the art of his time. He shared not only his home port of Ostend with James Ensor, but also his sense of mockery and irony, non-conformity and an urge to view the world differently. Spilliaert, however, created a spiritual visual language of his own, experimenting with pastels and gouache, playing with purified expanses of colour and elegant lines. The moonlit sea, solitary, vacantly gazing figures, beaches stripped of all human presence, empty rooms and stylized, backlit silhouettes - Spilliaert invariably evoked an atmosphere of mystery, magic and alienation in line and colour. Anne Adriaens-Pannier, former curator at the Royal Museums of Fine Arts in Brussels, has been working on the catalogue raisonne of his oeuvre since 1995 at the Spilliaert family's request. She pays tribute to the artist with this beautifully illustrated book, in which she describes his drawings and paintings, as well as referring to his book illustrations and lithographs. The author presents Spilliaert as a link between the major art movements in the fascinating era in which he lived and worked. A unique book about an exceptional artist.

Bij de meeste kunstliefhebbers zijn ze vrijwel onbekend: de illustraties van L on Spilliaert (1881-1946) in uitgaven van het werk van Belgische schrijvers als Emile Verhaeren, Maurice Maeterlinck, Franz Hellens, Paul Neuhuys en vele anderen. Spilliaert illustreerde hun dichtbundels en theaterstukken, en zelfs een kinderboek, met tekeningen in Oost-Indische inkt en aquarelverf, of liet zijn inspiratie de vrije loop bij het visualiseren van de droomwereld van de auteurs. Dit rijke deelgebied van zijn kunst wordt door Spilliaertspecialiste Anne Adriaens-Pannier eindelijk voor het publiek ontsloten. Dit boek begeleidt de tentoonstelling De droom van anderen in Het Spilliaert Huis in Oostende (van 19 november 2017 t.e.m. 2 april 2018), waar de uitgaven met originele tekeningen of gedrukte illustraties en aanverwante autonome werken samen te zien zijn. De stukken, uit openbare en particuliere collecties, bieden voor het eerst, en waarschijnlijk eenmalig, een volledig beeld van Spilliaerts literair ge nspireerde creaties.

Ensor, P. Delvaux?. However, he is less well known? A man of disquieting solitudes and infinite perspectives, Spilliaert (1881-1946) surprised and disconcerted by unclassifiable works, inventing a singular symbolism of the inner night. Spilliaert was born in Oostende. His night walks in the deserted city were a source of inspiration for his work. He is almost entirely self-taught. It is influenced by the artistic currents of the end of the century: symbolism and expressionism. Spilliaert is an explorer of the unconscious and existential anxieties at a time when the human sciences are advancing in their understanding of the psyche. He is passionate about Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, Chateaubriand and Lautr amont. The catalogue focuses on the years 1896 to 1919, the most intense years in the artist?s career, and presents his most radical works.

Step into the silent, mysterious world of L on Spilliaert A modest but essential part of Spilliaert?s oeuvre consists of his interiors and still lifes. These intimate compositions reveal the depth of his vision, as well as his exceptional ability to transform everyday spaces into places of contemplation. Empty rooms, familiar corners and simple objects are rendered with austere clarity, yet carry an intense, almost tangible presence ? despite the absence of human figures. Silence reigns in these works. This richly illustrated publication brings together new essays by leading Spilliaert scholars, each casting fresh light ? from within their own field of research ? on the genesis of this exceptional body of work by the Ostend artist. With contributions by Anne Adriaens?Pannier (ed.), Edouard Derom (ed.), Stefan Huygebaert and Marie?No lle Grison. This book is published on the occasion of the exhibition L on Spilliaert: Through Half-Open Doors at the Patrick Derom Gallery, Brussels, from June 3 to August 14, 2026.

Teruggrijpen naar het verleden, het is iets van alle tijden. Net als vandaag was geschiedenis ook in de negentiende eeuw populair. Het is de eeuw waarin verschillende nieuwe naties ontstaan en andere zich sterker gaan profileren op het internationale toneel. Tijdens de Romantiek groeit een hernieuwde belangstelling voor de Bourgondische hertogen, van Filips de Stoute tot de roemrijke keizer Karel. Zo treden de vijftiende- en zestiende-eeuwse Bourgondische vorsten in verschillende Europese landen opnieuw op de voorgrond. Als de aartsvaders van de Lage Landen verschijnen ze op schilderijen, in de literatuur en beeldhouwkunst. Maar het beeld van de vorsten verschilt sterk van land tot land: wat vertellen ze ons over de negentiende-eeuwse visie op het verleden? En over de manier waarop wij vandaag omgaan met onze geschiedenis? In Uitbundig Verleden. De Bourgondi rs door Romantische ogen kijk je vanuit een hedendaagse context, met een kritische blik en een veranderend perspectief naar het verleden. De ondergrondse exporuimte van Museum Hof van Busleyden doet aan als eennegentiende-eeuws monumentaal museum en toont met een veertigtal werken het verlangen naar de grootsheid van weleer. Museum Hof van Busleyden - 27.11.2021 - 27.02.2022. Uitbundig Verleden is een samenwerking tussen Museum Hof van Busleyden en het Monast re royal de Brou in Bourg-en-Bresse (Frankrijk).

Summary This monograph is the first study to highlight the plasticity of the figure of Pilate across Christian literature of the first millennium, as transmitted in Greek, Latin, Coptic, Syriac, Ge'ez, Armenian, Georgian, Slavic and Arabic. The name of the person Pilate is present in the memoirs and in the confessions of faith for the role of this Roman praefectus of Judea in the central event of Christianity which is the death sentence of Jesus of Nazareth. However, we only know his character as it was constructed by the authors of the first century - the Jewish writers, the authors of the Gospels which have become canonical or of the texts called apocrypha. It is from these sources that the authors of the patristic period elaborate figures of Pilate based on their analysis of his role in the Passion. Like the emperor depicted in the apocryphal texts, they in turn put Pilate on trial: how could the human judge judge the Judge of the universe? Who is responsible for the death of Jesus? Even though it is very largely sullied in the medieval West, the triune figure of Pilate as governor, judge and Roman is enriched with the features of the informant, of the evangelizer of the emperor, and even of the martyr and the saint. Cette monographie est la premi re tude mettant en vidence la plasticit de la figure de Pilate travers la litt rature chr tienne du premier mill naire, transmise en grec, latin, copte, syriaque, gu ze, arm nien, g orgien, slave et arabe. Le nom de la personne Pilate est pr sent dans les m moires et dans les confessions de foi pour le r le de ce pr fet romain de Jud e dans l' v nement central du christianisme qu'est la condamnation mort de J sus de Nazareth. On ne conna t pourtant de lui que le personnage construit par les auteurs du Ier si cle - les crivains juifs, les auteurs des vangiles devenus canoniques ou des textes appel s apocryphes. C'est partir de ces sources que les auteurs de la p riode patristique laborent des figures de Pilate fond es sur leur analyse de son r le dans la Passion. Tels l'empereur mis en sc ne dans les textes apocryphes, ils font leur tour le proc s de Pilate : comment le juge humain a-t-il pu juger le Juge de l'univers ? Qui est responsable de la mort de J sus ? Alors m me qu'elle est tr s largement noircie dans l'Occident m di val, la figure trine de Pilate comme gouverneur, juge et Romain s'enrichit des traits de l'informateur, voire de l' vang lisateur de l'empereur, et m me du martyr et du saint.

Summary Ritual, Gender, and Narrative in Late Medieval Italy is the first English-language study of the baptistery of Padua and its extraordinarily rich fresco program, which opens with Genesis and closes with the Apocalypse. Remarkably, when the building was refashioned and frescoed by Giusto de' Menabuoi in the 1370s, it was a woman, Fina Buzzacarini, who funded the enterprise. In late medieval Italy, baptisteries were potent symbols of civic identity, solidarity, and pride, and towns spent lavishly on them - but no other baptistery was so radically reworked at the behest of a woman. Remarkably, too, though the building continued to function as Padua's baptismal church, the renovations transformed it into the mausoleum of Fina Buzzacarini and her family. This volume takes an interdisciplinary approach, using close visual analysis to argue that to a surprising degree, Fina exerted control over the images. The author argues too that ritual is equally important in understanding the frescoes: that in multiple ways that have rarely been considered, the images respond to and participate in the ritual enacted in this sacred space. The prayers intoned at the font, the actions of the officiant, the hymns chanted in procession and inside the baptistery, and even details of the rite all find visual echoes on the baptistery's walls. Ultimately, gender and ritual intersect in the multilayered frescoes of the Padua baptistery. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction Chapter 1 Fina Buzzacarini in Carrara Padua Local chroniclers say little about Fina, but recount one salient aspect of her life: after marrying Francesco I Carrara in 1345, she failed for over a decade to produce the requisite son and heir. After crises at court over succession, in 1359 she gave birth to a son. Though the couple's marriage was strained by her husband's blatant philandering, previously overlooked records show that Fina, a very wealthy woman, gradually emerged as a powerful presence at court. While some have minimized the degree of Fina's responsibility for the baptistery's program, I cite a number of documents from the later trecento that attest to a woman's ability to shape the subject matter of a work that she funded. I next discuss Fina's tomb monument, which emulates those of earlier Carrara lords but outshines them, and her votive portrait, which places her on the dexter side, as sole donor, and excludes her husband. Finally, I consider the extraordinary small portraits of Fina inserted into several of the narratives and interpret them as assertions of her authority, overt claims of agency, injected through the program. Chapter 2 Baptistery as Mausoleum: Ambitions and Motivations Why would Fina have sought the baptistery as a burial site, and why did Francesco and the local bishop, whose approval would have been required, agree? The sacred space of a baptistery had long been understood as a desirable funerary site. For Francesco, the project meant the embellishment of one of the most important buildings in the city, burnishing the stature of the regime; co-opting the preeminent symbol of civic harmony; and creating a prestigious-and presumably spiritually advantageous-setting for his own tomb. For the bishop, given the brief tenures of his predecessors who dared to cross Francesco, attempting to thwart the project was not a viable option. Fina likely had reasons of her own, which I consider further in Chapter 6, for choosing the baptistery as her burial place. Here I note that baptisteries were uncommonly welcoming to women. The rite offered them a rare opportunity to participate in the liturgy: women took their place at the font next to men. Finally, in electing her burial in the baptistery, Fina insured that her tomb would be seen, and her memory preserved, by future generations. Chapter 3 Narrative, Ritual, Exegesis: The Genesis Cycle This chapter opens with an account of the baptismal ritual as performed in late medieval Italy- the choreography of prayers, chants, readings, ritual actions, and attendant customs for both the solemn rite and the individual rite. The rest of chapter 3, and chapters 4 and 5, analyze the frescoes in the narrative cycles, arguing that they are as carefully choreographed as the rite, and work in concert with it. They respond as well to baptismal theology, depicting themes that offer pictorial glosses on the rite, echoing typological parallels drawn by medieval exegetes. The Genesis cycle in the drum of the dome includes narratives both familiar and more obscure (the Death of Adam; Lamech Slaying Cain; Jacob's Prayer after his Dream; Jacob's Rods; the Reunion of Jacob and Esau). The obscure episodes are distinctly baptismal, and even the familiar ones are rendered in unusual ways that heighten their baptismal resonance. Chapter 4: Narrative, Ritual, Exegesis: The New Testament Cycle The baptismal themes introduced in the drum continue below, in the New Testament cycle, where the frescoes are often strategically sited to respond to others, each accruing meaning from those nearby. Because of these pictorial and thematic correspondences, it is most productive to analyze the frescoes spatially, wall by wall, rather than purely chronologically. While most of the New Testament episodes depicted here are commonly seen in trecento visual narrative, almost all have been adapted in ways that make them singularly appropriate to the site. For instance, in the Massacre of the Innocents, the slain babies, normally shown nude in trecento painting, wear white tunics that evoke the white garments given to infants after baptism; the jugs in the Marriage of Cana are enlarged versions of the ewer used in the baptismal rite. Chapter 5: Narrative, Ritual, Exegesis: The Apocalypse Cycle In the baptistery's apse is a remarkably detailed depiction of the book of Revelation, a subject seldom seen in trecento painting and never on this scale. The choice was well considered: from late antiquity into late medieval Italy, exegetes found in the text repeated allusions to the sacrament. Again, uncommon narrative inclusions, such as the opening of the fifth seal, with the giving of white garments to the souls under the altar, or idiosyncratic features, like the setting of scenes in dramatic seascapes that attest to the salvific potency of water, highlight the relationship between the images and the rite enacted here. Chapter 6: Gender Matters: Maternity, Sexuality, and Visual Rhetoric If the Padua baptistery is a site for the celebration of the liturgy, it is also a site for the celebration, and commemoration, of its patron. Chapter 6 returns to the visual evidence to examine Fina's role in the baptistery more closely. The gender symmetry of the dome, where women and men appear in equal numbers in the largest circle of Paradise, is suggestive. So is the Genesis cycle's insertion of women into the narrative, at times almost rewriting sacred history to insist on their active participation at critical junctures. Moreover, many of the women featured in the dome and the drum are, unlike most women in the Christian pantheon, mothers - significantly, mothers of sons. Several (Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, Elizabeth) conceived and delivered sons only after a long delay. Important, too, is the Apocalyptic Woman of Rev. 12, prominently depicted in the apse, who gave birth to a son born to rule. All of these women serve as Fina's exemplars - and as reminders of her success in delivering her own long-awaited son. Finally, the frescoes also feature malevolent, and specifically sexually transgressive, women: Herodias, the wife of Lot, and the Whore of Babylon; all are visually juxtaposed with virtuous mothers, and Herodias, who had an adulterous relationship with a ruler, with Fina herself.

Ph nom ne fondamental de l'Antiquit , la pseud pigraphie n'a cependant fait l'objet d'aucune monographie avant les ann es 1970, avec le livre de Wolfgang Speyer, Die literarische F lschung im heidnischen und christlichen Altertum (1971), et les Entretiens de la Fondation Hardt, Pseudepigrapha I. Pseudopythagorica - Lettres de Platon - Litt rature pseud pigraphique juive (1972). Le sujet a alors suscit les critiques de plusieurs savants. Plus r cemment, la somme que Bart Ehrman a consacr e la question, Forgery and Counterforgery (2013), par les vives r actions qu'elle a provoqu es - parfois critiques, parfois logieuses - a contribu relancer le d bat. Le pr sent volume se propose de revenir sur ces importantes synth ses, en les abordant sous l'angle de figures pr cises, ainsi que d' poques, de langues et de r gions diverses. Il vise aussi largir la recherche en mettant l' preuve les diff rentes th ories nonc es dans la litt rature savante. Il est d sormais devenu essentiel d' tendre et de remodeler cette notion de pseud pigraphie qui touche galement celles d' auctorialit , d'inspiration po tique, d'intention des auteurs antiques et de genres litt raires.

De Leidse fijnschilders van de Gouden Eeuw genoten al in hun tijd als geen andere schilder een ongekende faam. De minutieus geschilderde kabinetstukjes van Gerrit Dou, Frans van Mieris de Oude en Godfried Schalcken vonden hun weg naar toonaangevende verzamelingen door heel Europa. August de Sterke, keurvorst van Saksen, had een buitengewone voorkeur voor de fijnschilders en bracht een verzameling van meer dan tachtig meesterwerken bijeen. De Gem ldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden bezit hiervan meer dan vijftig werken, verreweg de grootste en belangrijkste verzameling fijnschilders ter wereld. Het Stedelijk Museum De Lakenhal heeft de eer deze collectie voor het eerst in zijn geheel te tonen. Ter gelegenheid van de tentoonstelling verschijnt een publicatie van Annegret Laabs, waarin de collectie volledig wordt beschreven. Alle werken zijn in kleur te bewonderen en Christoph Sch lzel beschrijft in een apart essay de materiaal-technische aspecten van het werk. Leidse fijnschilders is voor alles een perfecte introductie in het onderwerp. De succesvolle en reeds lang uitverkochte voorganger uit 1988 heeft eindelijk een opvolger.

Binnen de zeventiende eeuwse schilderkunst speelt de krans een bescheiden, maar interessante rol. Het is vaak een detail dat niet direct opvalt, maar dat bij nadere beschouwing toch een specifieke betekenis aan het schilderij blijkt te geven. Het is fascinerend om te zien op hoeveel verschillende manieren de krans als symbool opduikt in de 17e-eeuwse schilderkunst. Veel van zulke opmerkelijke en betekenisvolle kransen komen in deze publicatie aan bod. Enerzijds heb je de bloemenkrans als teken van verer

The successor to the international bestseller Vermeer, featuring groundbreaking research on the Dutch master Closer to Vermeer explores the world of Johannes Vermeer, a painter whose work continues to fascinate more than 350 years after his death. Taking the landmark 2023 Rijksmuseum exhibition as a point of departure, this volume brings together new art-historical and technical research by leading international experts. How did Vermeer translate his creative ideas into paint? Did the seventeenth-century Dutch master truly rely on optical devices? What do the carefully rendered objects in his interiors reveal about the artist himself? And how has the perception of his small but extraordinary oeuvre evolved over time? Using the latest imaging techniques, researchers scrutinize Vermeer?s masterpieces, yielding compelling new insights into his artistic process, material choices, and technical virtuosity. These investigations contribute to a deeper understanding of Vermeer?s painting technique throughout his career. Other specialists revisit seventeenth-century sources, uncover new archival documents, and explore Vermeer?s patrons and the material world he portrayed. The objects depicted in his interiors ? maps, pearls, porcelain, kitchenware ? are examined not merely as visual motifs, but as clues to his worldview and working methods. At once scholarly and accessible, Closer to Vermeer offers a fresh, intimate perspective on one of the most enigmatic and beloved painters ? a vital resource and enduring reference for specialists and art lovers alike.

Summary This is the ninth volume in a continuing series of publications listing and identifying all illustrations contained in English manuscripts from the time of Chaucer to Henry VIII. Because representations of all types are included?from miniatures to marginalia? the series provides unparalleled reference to imagery in the long fifteenth century. The present fascicle, the second of two devoted to the collections in Cambridge, catalogues 553 manuscripts for eleven colleges and can be used as a search tool for manuscripts available on line. The manuscript entries in the catalogue note the subject of every illustration, all of which are fully indexed in the index of pictorial subjects. Entries for alchemy and medicine are particularly rich in this fascicle; the largest entry is for costume. The broad range of pictorial information makes the Cambridge fascicles useful supplements to the fifth volume of A Catalogue of Western Illumination in the Fitzwilliam Museum and Cambridge Colleges. Like the other fascicles in the series, Cambridge II includes a manual for users, an extensive glossary of subjects and terms, indexes of authors, texts and incipits, as well as a list of manuscripts with coats of arms. There are forty-seven black and white illustrations.

Summary The thirty chapters in this book are based on the work of an international, multidisciplinary team of researchers and archivists brought together for the PerformArt project, funded by the European Research Council from 2016 to 2022. This project investigated the artistic patronage of the great Roman aristocratic families of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries through research in the extant archives. After the accession to the papal throne of Innocent X in 1644, and more so after the Peace of the Pyrenees in 1659 - which led to a greater loss of power for the pope in his relations with other European states - the Roman families stepped up their efforts to assert their social preeminence not only through architecture and the fine arts, but also through the ephemeral performing arts: music, theatre, and dance, which were omnipresent throughout the year and especially during the intense period of artistic production that was the Roman Carnival. The search for traces of these spectacles in the archives of these families reveals that their desire to display their magnificence - an ideal well documented in the literature of the period - gave rise to lavish expenditure on a scale that could only be justified by the benefits (if not tangible, then at least symbolic) they hoped to gain. The essays in this book, which draw on social economic history, the history of ideas, and the evolving artistic practices of the time, make a major contribution to our knowledge of courtly societies in Ancien R gime Europe by integrating the performing arts into their analyses in innovative ways.
