    Auguste Rodin – Le fondateur génial de la sculpture moderne

    November 11, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Nombre de sculptures de Rodin furent critiquées et controversées en raison de leur sensualité ou de leur réalité crue. Ses œuvres les plus originales se détachaient des traditionnels thèmes mythologiques ou allégoriques pour étreindre le corps humain, célébrer l’individualisme et la matérialité. Ce livre dévoile la vie et la carrière de cet artiste en explorant ses œuvres majeures telles que La Porte de l’Enfer, Le Penseur et le fameux Baiser.

    Auguste Rodin – The genius founder of modern sculpture

    November 8, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Many of Rodin's sculptures were criticised and considered controversial because of their sensuality or hyperrealist qualities. His most original works departed from traditional themes of mythology and allegory, and embraced the human body, celebrating individualism and physicality.

    L'iconographie chrétienne, et surtout la représentation du Christ, se base dans la doctrine de l'Incarnation. Tout comme le théologien s'exprime par la pensée, l'iconographe, à travers son art, exprime la vérité vivante, la révélation appartenant à l'Église dans la forme des traditions.

    This art is appealing because of its great openness to other influences – the obedience to the rules of Orthodox Christianity in its early stages, the borrowing from Roman heritage or later to the Western breakthroughs – combined with a never compromised assertion of a distinctly Slavic soul and identity.

    Un anniversaire pas comme les autres…

    June 28, 2012 / 0 Comments

    Vous êtes convié à une fête d’anniversaire… Et vous connaissez peut-être celle qui souffle les bougies… La Madone Sixtine, une des plus célèbres toiles du peintre Raphaël (1483-1520), fête en effet ses 500 ans en 2012 ! Une des plus célèbres et une des plus mystérieuses aussi… Pourquoi les visages de Marie et de Jésus regardent-ils, pleins d’angoisse, en direction du spectateur ? Pourquoi le doigt du saint à droite de Marie est-il pointé vers le public ? Que signifient les visages fantomatiques visibles à l’arrière-plan ? Enfin, pourquoi la scène toute entière ressemble-t-elle autant à un décor de théâtre ? Mais la question la plus mystérieuse de toutes reste…

    Sistine Madonna, one of the oldest, but still among the most beautiful, women in the world

    June 26, 2012 / 0 Comments

    Raphael, everybody’s favourite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.* His namesake, Italian Renaissance painter, Raphael is also a favourite of his period; he continues to be admired and sought after the world over. Among his (the painter, of course) most famous works, The Parnassus (1511) and The Miraculous Draught of Fishes (1515), is the Sistine Madonna (below). This work, both simple and beautiful, still raises a lot of questions. Why is Mary’s face already one of concern, much like her general disposition when standing next to Christ on the Crucifix? What’s the deal with the ghostly images in the background – are they souls or cherubs? To whom is Saint Sixtus referring with…
