Описание:

An Old Master on the way to the modern age: a monumental Goya survey featuring rarely seen paintings from private collections

Francisco de Goya was one of the last great court artists and a significant trailblazer for modern art--and now, the Fondation Beyeler, in collaboration with the Museo Nacional del Prado, has mounted one of the most extensive exhibitions of his work outside of Spain, a major event commemorated with this monumental publication.

In a career of more than 60 years, Goya acted as an astute observer of the drama of reason and irrationality, of dreams and nightmares. His pictures show things that go beyond social conventions: he depicts saints and criminals, witches and demons, breaking open the gates to realms where the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur. The Fondation Beyeler exhibition and its accompanying catalog gathers more than 70 paintings, around 60 masterful drawings and a selection of prints that invite the viewer to an encounter with Goya's vision of the beautiful, as well as the incomprehensible. For the first time, rarely seen paintings from private collections in Spain have been united with key works from the most famous European and American museums and private collections. This extensive catalog examines Goya's unique artistic impact in texts by renowned interpreters, and features splendid photographic illustrations.

The work of Spanish painter Francisco de Goya (1746-1828) covers the spectrum from the Rococo to Romanticism. The last of the Old Masters and the first of the moderns, Goya was both a transitional and completely singular figure, a chronicler of the events and protagonists of his day and an explorer of timeless interior realms.

Описание: This book provides detailed analysis of Francisco Goya's Los Caprichos, a series of eighty etchings published in 1799, by examining the artistic principles that animate these remarkable images, and considering the complex way that they relate to the particular historical moment in which the prints were created and first received. In discussing the perceptual tensions in Los Caprichos, Andrew Schulz reevaluates the relationship between Goya's etchings and the Spanish Enlightenment, and reconsiders Goya's career during the 1780s and 1790s. His contention is that notions of vision and perception - key leitmotifs of the Enlightenment that became problematic in the years around 1800 - are fundamental to the poetics of Los Caprichos.

By positioning Los Caprichos in the interstices between Neoclassicism and Romanticism, he reaffirms their crucial position in the history of European art.

Описание: Theorists emphasize the necessity of writing about - or witnessing - trauma in order to overcome it. To this critical conversation, Reading Testimony, Witnessing Trauma: Confronting Race, Gender, and Violence in American Literature treats reader response to traumatic and testimonial literature written by and about African American women and adds insight into the engagement of testimonial literature. Eden Wales Freedman articulates a theory of reading (or dual-witnessing) that explores how narrators and readers can witness trauma together. She places these original theories of traumatic reception in conversation with the African American literary tradition to speak to the histories, cultures, and traumas of African Americans, particularly the repercussions of slavery, as witnessed in African American literature. The volume also considers intersections of race and gender and how narrators and readers can cross such constructs to witness collectively. Reading Testimony, Witnessing Trauma's innovative examinations of raced-gendered intersections open and speak with those works that promote dual-witnessing through the fraught (literary) histories of race and gender relations in America. To explicate how dual-witnessing converses with American literature, race theory, and gender criticism, the book analyzes emancipatory narratives by Sojourner Truth, Harriet Jacobs, and Elizabeth Keckley and novels by William Faulkner, Zora Neale Hurston, Margaret Walker, Toni Morrison, and Jesmyn Ward.
