Book Description
El arte no es sólo europeo o americano. ¿Cuáles son pues, en el siglo XX, los creadores indios o los chinos, los magrebíes o los australianos? ¿Qué relaciones pueden encontrarse entre los japoneses del grupo Gutai y el paso de John Cage por el Black Mountain College? ¿Cómo accedieron a la notoriedad y la fama las distintas vanguardias de este siglo? ¿Quiénes fueron sus críticos, sus marchantes, sus coleccionistas? Para responder a preguntas como éstas se ha creado el presente diccionario. En él se encontrarán entradas –acompañadas de bibliografías– de todos los grandes pintores y escultores, así como de movimientos y tendencias que han modificado nuestra sensibilidad, pero también informaciones precisas sobre su entorno (revistas, teóricos, críticos, exposiciones internacionales), y sobre los conceptos que permiten describir sus innovaciones. Una cincuentena de autores, bajo la dirección de Gérard Durozoi, ha trabajado durante cuatro años para lograr esta síntesis única: 2.200 entradas cubren el arte de los cinco continentes. Un juego de remisiones entre las noticias y una ilustración abundante y variada, obras, pero también documentos y fotos de archivos, nos invitan a múltiples recorridos susceptibles de satisfacer la curiosidad de la inteligencia y la mirada.

Cuban Modernism
Author: Victor Deupi
Publisher: Birkhäuser
ISBN: 3035616442
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
In the 20th century, modern architecture thrived in Cuba and a wealth of buildings was realized prior to the revolution 1959 and in its wake. The designs comprise luxurious nightclubs and stylish hotels, sports facilities, elegant private homes and apartment complexes. Drawing on the vernacular, their architects defined a way to be modern and Cuban at the same time – creating an architecture oscillating between tradition and avantgarde. Audacious concrete shells, curving ramps, elegant brises-soleils and a fluidity of interior and exterior spaces are characteristic of an airy, often colorful architecture well-suited to life in the tropics. New photographs and drawings were specially prepared for this publication. A biographical survey portraits the 40 most important Cuban architects of the era.

Abstract Crossings
Author: María Amalia García
Publisher: University of California Press
ISBN: 0520302192
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Toward the middle of the 1950s, abstract art became a dominant trend in the Latin American cultural scene. Many artists incorporated elements of abstraction into their rigorous artistic vocabularies, while at the same time, the representation of geometric lines and structures filtered into everyday life, appearing in textiles, posters, murals, and landscapes. The translation of a field-changing Spanish-language book, Abstract Crossings analyzes the relationship between, on the one hand, the emergence of abstract proposals in avant-garde groups and, on the other, the institutionalization and newfound hegemony of abstract poetics as part of Latin America’s imaginary of modernization. A profusion of mid-century artistic institutional exchanges between Argentina and Brazil makes a study of the trajectories of abstraction in these two countries particularly valuable. Examining the work of artists such as Max Bill, Lygia Clark, Waldemar Cordeiro, and Tomás Maldonado, author María Amalia García rewrites the artistic history of the period and proposes a novel reading of the cultural dialogue between Argentina and Brazil. This is the first book in the new Studies on Latin American Art series, supported by a gift from the Institute for Studies on Latin American Art.

Research Tracks in Urbanism: Dynamics, Planning and Design in Contemporary Urban Territories
Author: Alessia Allegri
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 100046413X
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Maybe the Global Village metaphor has never been more accurate than it is today, where societies join forces in the fight against the COVID 19 pandemic, in a global coordinated effort, possibly never tested before in the known history of Humankind. Although we are sure that in the past some other shared demands have united the different peoples of the world, this has never been so strongly necessary, mainly in what the global scientific community is concerned. This is a fight for the survival of a society. However, we should not lose sight of what we are fighting for. We fight together for people. Not just for the abstract value of Human life, but for life in society as a whole, including its moral and ethical aspects. The topics of this book are based on this claim, on what makes it possible. We do not build our lives in a vacuum, or in distant Invisible Cities, but through a higher value, which represents physical life in society: the City, built by the discipline of Urbanism. This book is a spin-off of the International Research Seminar on Urbanism_SIIU2020. Inspired by the contents of twelve research seminars, a group of researchers from the universities of Barcelona, Lisbon and São Paulo discuss the contemporary agenda of research in Urbanism. Following the conference, a selection of 35 original double-blind peer-reviewed research papers were brought together with different perspectives about such an agenda.
