Da sie eine unerschöpfliche Inspirationsquelle darstellt, haben Künstler das Bild der Jungfrau Maria immer wieder genutzt, um unsere eigenen Leiden und Freuden zu reflektieren.

Finding in her an inexhaustible source of inspiration, artists have consistently used the image of the Virgin Mary to reflect our own sufferings and joys.

    Seit Grabdenkmäler auf den Gräbern errichtet wurden, hat die Vorstellung vom Tod und vom Leben nach dem Tod einen wichtigen Stellenwert in der Kunstwelt erlangt.

    Since the first funerary statues were placed in the first sepulchres, the ideas of death and the afterlife have always held a prominent place at the heart of the art world. In this work, Victoria Charles analyses how, through the centuries, art has become the reflection of these interrogations linked to mankind’s fate and the hereafter.

    Michelangelo – Die Qual und Ekstase eines Genies

    August 11, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Der untenstehende Text ist ein Auszug aus dem Buch Michelangelo von Eugène Müntz , herausgegeben von Parkstone International. Michelangelo verkörpert mit seiner universellen Begabung den typischen Renaissancemenschen und überragt alle anderen Künstler des Cinquecento. Er wurde in eine Zeit hineingeboren, die es seinem Genie erlaubte, sich ungehemmt zu entfalten. Dennoch dürfen wir seine Vorgänger nicht vergessen, die ihm in vielerlei Hinsicht den Weg geebnet haben. Von eher düsterem Charakter und mit einem Hang zum Einzelgängertum widmete er all seine Energien seiner Kunst. Er war ein sehr frommer und spirituellen Dingen zugeneigter Mann, dessen geistige Haltung von Savonarola beeinflusst war. Das Jüngste Gericht zeigt die Qualen des Künstlers an seinem Lebensabend. Seine zahlreichen Darstellungen nackter…

    Michelangelo, the Head of Leda and a Royal Evildoer

    January 14, 2016 / 0 Comments

    We know Michelangelo (1475-1564) for this and that. We are amazed by the fact that he copied some Martin Schongauer engravings at the age of thirteen. We’ve heard rumors about his homosexuality. And although we’ve always liked Leonardo and his katanas better, we have to admit that the coolest Teenage Mutant Hero Turtle is named after Michelangelo. 452 years after his death, his works are still part of our pop culture. Any more proof needed for the greatness of this man? From January 17, the Phoenix Art Museum shows twenty-six of Michelangelo’s drawings from the collection of the Casa Buonarroti in Florence. Here’s the story of one of them. Michelangelo’s…

    Drawing Towards the Limelight

    April 17, 2015 / 0 Comments

    Often thought of as a secondary art form, less important than painting, the art of drawing is beginning to enjoy the limelight. Museums around the world are mounting exhibitions focusing on the underrated art of draughtsmanship, and Parkstone’s new book 1000 Drawings of Genius showcases the finest works that this genre has to offer. A genius is defined as “a person with exceptional ability”. And certainly there are those famous draughtsman of yore whose work seems highly worthy of this title. Traditionally the figureheads that spring to mind include the classicists da Vinci, Michelangelo, and later, Rembrandt. The work of these men does seem beyond the stretch of the average…
