    Ein außergewöhnliches Panorama der Landschaftsmalerei

    April 21, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Obwohl die Landschaftsmalerei lange Zeit als Untergenre angesehen wurde, ist sie doch über ihre Vorgänger – die religiöse und historische Malerei – hinausgewachsen und hat sich zu einem eigenen Genre entwickelt.

    An exceptional panorama of Landscape painting

    April 19, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Although considered a minor genre for a long time, the art of landscape has risen above its forebears - religious and historic painting - to become a genre of its own.

    LA PEINTURE ANGLAISE

    May 26, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Ya-t-il une école anglaise ? Si l’on s’en tient à la définition étroite du mot école, il s’applique d’une façon bien imparfaite au mouvement de la peinture en Angleterre. En effet, il sert généralement à désigner un ensemble de traditions et de procédés, une technique, un goût particulier dans le dessin, un sens de la couleur également particulier concourant à l’expression d’un idéal commun poursuivi par les artistes d’une m’me nation dans le m’me temps. ¤ ce titre, il y a une école flamande, une école hollandaise, une école espagnole, il y a diverses écoles en Italie, il y a une école française, mais il n’y a pas d’école anglaise.…

    Die Englische Malerei

    May 22, 2020 / 0 Comments

    Der untenstehende Text ist ein Auszug aus dem Die Englische Malerei von Vincent A. Smith, herausgegeben von Parkstone International. Gibt es überhaupt eine englische Schule der Malerei? Streng genommen passt das Wort ıSchule„ nur in sehr unvollkommener Weise zur Geschichte der englischen Malerei. Generell wird diese Vokabel verwendet, um eine Gesamtheit von Vorgehen und Traditionen, eine bestimmte Methode, einen charakteristischen Stil im Design und einen ebenso eigenständigen Geschmack in der Farbgebung zu bezeichnen – dies alles trägt zur Darstellung eines in den Köpfen der Künstler eines Landes zur gleichen Zeit bestehenden nationalen Ideals bei. In diesem Sinne spricht man von der Flämischen Schule, der Niederländischen Schule, der Spanischen Schule, von mehreren italienischen Schulen…

    English Painting

    May 15, 2020 / 0 Comments

    The text below is the excerpt from the book English Painting, written by Ernest Chesneau , published by Parkstone International. Is there an English school of painting at all? Strictly speaking, the word school applies only in a very imperfect manner to the growth of painting in England. Generally it is used to designate a special collection of traditions and processes, a particular method, a peculiar style in design, and an equally peculiar taste in colouring – all contributing to the representation of a national ideal existing in the minds of the artists of the same country at the same time. In this sense, we speak of the Flemish school, the Dutch school, the…

    Exhibition: Turner Prize Date: 25 September 2018 – 6 January 2019 Venue: Tate Britain, UK Joseph Mallord William Turner was born at 21 Maiden Lane, Covent Garden, London, sometime in late April or early May 1775. (The artist himself liked to claim that he was born on 23, April which is both the English national holiday, St George’s Day, and William Shakespeare’s birthday, although no verification of that claim has ever been found.) His father, William, was a wigmaker and barber. We know little about Turner’s mother, Mary (née Marshall), other than that she was mentally unbalanced, and that her instability was exacerbated by the fatal illness of Turner’s younger…

    This is what Art tells us about our History

    December 22, 2015 / 0 Comments

    Ask the question of the week – what does it mean to be British? – and the answer you might get from our metropolitan art galleries might be at once polymorphic and paradoxical, but also strangely consoling, in the way of the best culture, about the dark times in which we live. From the British Museum (The Celts), to the V&A (European Arts and Crafts, 1600-1815) to the Royal Academy (Ai Weiwei) and Tate Britain (Artist and Empire), many great British collections present a magic tapestry open to almost infinite reinterpretation. This dazzling collage of portraits, jewellery, sculpture, rare photographs, wax tableaux and sumptuous oriental prints underlines a simple, and…

    L’âge de la déraison

    March 3, 2015 / 0 Comments

    Pensons à ce moment où un artiste atteint une telle maîtrise qu’il devient reconnaissable parmi cent autres. Ainsi en est-il lorsque les premières notes d’une Symphonie de Beethoven commencent à résonner. En français, on utilise le drôle de mot de « patte ». Ou identité, si vous préférez. Cependant cette identité est changeante : elle évolue ! Oui, les artistes sont comme nous… Mis à part Mozart, j’ai rarement entendu parler d’artistes capables de composer des menuets… à l’âge de six ans (véridique). Autre prodige, autre médium : Turner a signé sa première aquarelle à l’âge de douze ans ! Deux ans plus tard, il entrait à l’École de la Royal Academy. Cette précocité permet de…

    There’s that light…

    January 26, 2015 / 0 Comments

    Do you know what the last sentence of Joseph Mallord William Turner – incontrovertibly the greatest British painter of all time – was? “The sun is God.” The last words of a real genius! They sum up not only his beliefs, but also his notion of art. People call him the “painter of light”. They could just as well call him the “painter of the sea”. Perhaps they should go for “the painter of the sea AND WHOA DO YOU SEE THAT LIGHT?!” From February 24 to May 24, the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles is hosting one of the biggest Turner exhibitions that has ever been, focusing…
