Comment regarder... les couleurs dans la peinture
Author: Yves Charnay
Publisher:
ISBN: 9782754102537
Category :
Languages : fr
Pages : 335
Book Description
Véritable encyclopédie de la couleur mais aussi histoire de son usage dans la peinture, l’ouvrage commence par passer en revue les méthodes selon lesquelles l’homme a essayé de mesurer la couleur, ses tonalités, son intensité, les systèmes à l’aide desquels il a cherché à définir sa nature et la manière dont on la perçoit, de Newton à Chevreul. Sont abordés ensuite, exemples et commentaires à l’appui, la nature et l’usage des différents pigments, à travers l’histoire, les techniques picturales usant de la couleur, les symboles qu’on lui a attribués en Occident. Une large place est réservée aux principaux mouvements ou écoles artistiques qui en ont tiré un usage particulier, du luminisme vénitien au XVIe siècle aux applications quasi monochromes du « color-field painting » de l’abstraction américaine des années 50 ou encore au cinétisme de l’op’art, dans les années 60, qui joue des ressources de la perception rétinienne.

L’Écriture est la peinture de la voix
Author: Gillian Pink
Publisher: Liverpool University Press
ISBN: 1835537642
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
L’Écriture est la peinture de la voix honours and celebrates the inestimable contributions that Professor Nicholas Cronk has made to our understanding of the Enlightenment. As director of the University of Oxford’s Voltaire Foundation, he has played a decisive role in eighteenth-century studies. In particular he has shaped our knowledge of Voltaire as a writer, celebrity and era-defining figure whose influence has continued to be felt through the centuries. Comprising essays by a host of internationally eminent scholars, this volume is a fitting tribute to the esteem and affection in which Nicholas Cronk is held as a colleague, teacher and mentor. These sixteen essays reflect his varied research interests, exploring questions central to the eighteenth century, such as the writing process, justice, revolution, as well as the legacy of the Enlightenment, and focussing on the central figure in Nicholas Cronk’s research: Voltaire. In sections devoted to Voltaire’s writing practices, to his involvement in political, literary and religious polemics, and finally to his legacy, the essays build on Nicholas Cronk’s scholarship and editorial achievements, opening up a new chapter in research on Voltaire. This volume is complemented by an online collection of essays which speak to other topics central to Nicholas Cronk’s interests, such as authorial identities, correspondence and aesthetics.

Sam Francis, lesson of darkness
Author: Jean-François Lyotard
Publisher: Leuven University Press
ISBN: 9058677818
Category : Aesthetics
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
“Sam Francis. Lesson of Darkness is the second of a series of six volumes, bringing together the most important writings of Jean-François Lyotard (1924-1998) on contemporary art and artists. This second volume introduces forty-three poetical reflections and comments on the work of the well-known Californian painter Sam Francis (1923-1994). This edition reprints the English text published in 1993, which is no longer available, face to face with the previously unpublished French original. It also reproduces in full colour all forty-three paintings commented upon by Lyotard. In Lyotard's opinion ‘the work [by Sam Francis] pays homage to the visible marvel and bears witness to the visual enigma'. Lyotard discovers in these poetic reflections the subtle variety of meanings in the use of colour in Sam Francis's paintings.”--Back cover.
