Mots croisés
Author: Bárbara Bragato
Publisher: Editions L'Harmattan
ISBN: 2336471426
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 109
Book Description
À la frontière entre le portugais et le français, Mots croisés (Palavras cruzadas) est un livre qui trouve son origine dans les notes de voyage écrites depuis 2010, lorsque j’ai atterri pour la première fois en France. Au cours de ces quatorze années, marquées par de multiples traversées de l’Atlantique, de nouvelles relations se sont nouées entre les mots et la distance. Dans le désir de la rencontre, les géographies et les sémantiques révélaient leur incertitude. Entre les corps, les lieux, les synonymes insoutenables. Des mots croisés uniquement sur le papier. Na fronteira entre o português e o francês, Palavras cruzadas (Mots croisés) é um livro que parte de anotações de viagens feitas desde a primeira vez que pousei na França, em 2010. Neste intervalo de quatorze anos, perpassado por diversas travessias no Atlântico, novas relações se desenhavam entre a palavra e a distância. No desejo do encontro, geografias e semânticas apontavam sua incerteza. Dos corpos, dos lugares, dos sinônimos insustentáveis. Palavras cruzadas apenas no papel.

Magritte
Author: Alex Danchev
Publisher: Pantheon
ISBN: 0307908208
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 480
Book Description
The first major biography of the pathbreaking, perpetually influential surrealist artist and iconoclast whose inspiration can be seen in everyone from Jasper Johns to Beyoncé—by the celebrated biographer of Cézanne and Braque In this thought-provoking life of René Magritte (1898-1967), Alex Danchev makes a compelling case for Magritte as the single most significant purveyor of images to the modern world. Magritte’s surreal sensibility, deadpan melodrama, and fine-tuned outrageousness have become an inescapable part of our visual landscape, through such legendary works as The Treachery of Images (Ceci n’est pas une pipe) and his celebrated iterations of Man in a Bowler Hat. Danchev explores the path of this highly unconventional artist from his middle-class Belgian beginnings to the years during which he led a small, brilliant band of surrealists (and famously clashed with André Breton) to his first major retrospective, which traveled to the United States in 1965 and gave rise to his international reputation. Using 50 color images and more than 160 black-and-white illustrations, Danchev delves deeply into Magritte’s artistic development and the profound questions he raised in his work about the very nature of authenticity. This is a vital biography for our time that plumbs the mystery of an iconoclast whose influence can be seen in everyone from Jasper Johns to Beyoncé.

The Imaginary: Word and Image
Author:
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 900429872X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 363
Book Description
The imaginary as a critical concept originated in the twentieth century and has been theorized in diverse ways. It can be understood as a register of thought; the way we interpret the world; the universe of images, signs, texts, and objects of thought. In this volume, it is explored as it manifests itself in encounters between the verbal and the visual. A number of the essays brought together here explore the transposition of the imaginary in illustrations of texts and verbal renditions of images, as well as in comic books based on paintings or on verbal narratives. Others analyze ways in which books deal with film or television and investigate the imaginary in digital media. Special attention is paid to the imaginary of places and the relationship of the imaginary with memory. Written in English and French, these contributions by European and American scholars demonstrate the various concerns and approaches characteristic of contemporary scholarship in word and image studies.

The Culture of Fragments
Author: Orban
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004648267
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
Works of art such as paintings with words on them or poems shaped as images communicate to the viewer by means of more than one medium. Here is presented a particular group of hybrid art works from the early twentieth century, to discover in what way words and images can function together to create meaning. The four central artists considered in this study investigate word/image forms in their work. F.T. Marinetti invented parole in libertà, among other ideas, to free language from syntactic connections. Umberto Boccioni experimented with newspaper clippings on the canvas from 1912-1915, and these collages constitute an important exploration into word/image forms. André Breton's collection of poems Clair de terre (1923) contains several typographical variations for iconographic effect. René Magritte explored the relationship between words and images, juxtaposing signifiers to contradictory signifieds on the canvas. A final chapter introduces media other than poetry and painting on which words and images appear. Posters, the theater, and the relatively new medium of cinema foreground words and images constantly. This volume will be of interest to scholars of twentieth-century French or Italian literature or painting, and to scholars of word and image studies.

Marcel Broodthaers
Author: Deborah Schultz
Publisher: Peter Lang
ISBN: 9783039109180
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
The poet and artist Marcel Broodthaers (1924-76) is widely recognized as a key figure in 20th century art who questioned the nature of art, the role of the artist, the functioning of the museum and of the art market. This book sets out Broodthaers's strategy for artistic success and examines the dialogue into which he entered with his contemporaries and predecessors in 19th century French poetry, Pop and Conceptual Art, including Stéphane Mallarmé, Charles Baudelaire, Marcel Duchamp and René Magritte. It provides a broad overview of his objects, paintings, films, slides, books and installations, and his focus upon relationships, also central to Post-Structuralist and postmodern theories. The visual qualities of his works, combining the material with the poetic, his wit and irony, are examined in relation to his subtle method of questioning and contradicting, defying conventional systems and definitions. The author explores the wider framing contexts in which things are presented and the geographical context via maps, notions of the voyage and a sense of place. Institutional critique, the artist's political position and moral responsibilities in society are discussed by analyzing the responses of Broodthaers, Daniel Buren, Joseph Beuys and Hans Haacke to a series of museum events in the early 1970s.
