Book Synopsis Champfleury by : Amal Asfour
Download or read book Champfleury written by Amal Asfour. This book was released on 2001. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Champfleury (1821-1889), the prominent French nineteenth-century art critic, is renowned for his role in establishing a French realist school of art and as the champion of Gustave Courbet. Yet the extent to which his realism grows out of his deep and abiding interest in popular art has been neglected. At a time of radical disagreement about the historical, political and social role of popular culture, Champfleury creates a distinctive understanding of the art of the people. Investigating the interplay between the meaning or spirit of popular art, and its formal qualities, Champfleury's interpretation is primarily art historical. His approach forms the basis of a realist manifesto for the high art of his period. Closely analysing his work on imagery, songs, ceramics, caricature and pantomime, this book places Champfleury's approach to popular art in the context of the work of contemporary writers, historians, artists and folklorists.

Book Synopsis Great Art Critics (1750-2000) by : J. Pedro Lorente
Download or read book Great Art Critics (1750-2000) written by J. Pedro Lorente. This book was released on 2020-04-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The art world has become a point of contention within a range of debates and yet, strangely enough, while art criticism has been discussed at length, very little is said about art critics. Following in the footsteps of Lionello Venturi’s History of Art Criticism, in the current volume Lorente provides an updated reassessment of the great art critics from the Enlightenment down to the turn of the millennium. Conceived as a didactic handbook with a recommended bibliography at the end of each chapter, this concise work tells the history of a profession in permanent crisis, while also paying homage to its most infl uential practitioners in different cultural contexts.
