ARTE FIAMMINGA Premessa L’arte europea, agli inizi del XV secolo, parla in maniera univoca un unico linguaggio artistico: quello dell’arte tardo gotica. Ma fermenti di novità sono chiaramente all’orizzonte, e si concentrano soprattutto in due aree geografiche precise: la Toscana e le Fiandre. In sintesi, come si era verificato un secolo prima, abbiamo un’arte di tradizione, che egemonizza il panorama artistico, e due nuove proposte che si sviluppano tra l’Italia e i paesi transalpini. Agli inizi del Quattrocento la situazione è quasi analoga, solo che questa volta l’arte che monopolizza la scena è quella gotica, mentre le nuove proposte stilistiche vengono dall’arte fiamminga e da quella rinascimentale. Molteplici sono stati i protagonisti dell’arte fiamminga. La pittura ad olio Secondo la tradizione, i pittori fiamminghi, e in particolare Jan Van Eyck, furono gli inventori della pittura ad olio. Lo stile fiammingo Sul primo punto la pittura fiamminga non differisce molto da quella tardo gotica.
La peinture dans le cinéma La peinture influence bien souvent la cinéaste sans que le sujet de son film soit la vie d'un peintre. La peinture est dans le cinéma sans avoir besoin d'être médiatisée par la présence du peintre ou d'un tableau. Elle se trouve directement dans l'image, citant plus ou moins explicitement un tableau célèbre. Le film est alors souvent emporté par des enjeux communs avec ceux des peintres auquel il fait référence : nouveaux loisirs bourgeois proches de la nature pour les impressionnistes, difficultés souvent tragiques de la vie urbaine pour les expressionnistes, sentiment de la violence des contrastes pour le baroque ou présence nostalgique de la petite ville dans l'environnement urbain moderne pour tous les films américains qui se réfèrent à Edward Hopper. Les différents courants picturaux qui ont influencé les cinéastes sont présentés ici par ordre chronologique. 1 - l'art classique D'autres gravures de Hogarth sont montrées dans le film. 2 - l'impressionnisme 3- L'expressionnisme Source :
Finestre sull'Arte - il primo podcast italiano per la storia dell'arte Constructivism (art) Constructivism was an artistic and architectural philosophy that originated in Russia beginning in 1919, a rejection of the idea of autonomous art. The movement was in favour of art as a practice for social purposes. Constructivism had a great effect on modern art movements of the 20th century, influencing major trends such as the Bauhaus and De Stijl movements. Its influence was pervasive, with major impacts upon architecture, graphic and industrial design, theatre, film, dance, fashion and to some extent music. Photograph of the first Constructivist Exhibition, 1921. The term Construction Art was first used as a derisive term by Kazimir Malevich to describe the work of Alexander Rodchenko in 1917. IZO, the Commissariat's artistic bureau, was managed during the Russian Civil War mainly by Futurists, who published the journal Art of the Commune. Agitprop poster by Mayakovsky. The constructivists tried to create works that would make the viewer an active viewer of the artwork.
The Dance of Death The artistic genre of the dance of death was most probably developed in France. The dance of death of the Cimetière des Innocents in Paris, painted in 1424, is considered the starting point of this tradition. (That work having been destroyed, we know it only through a reproduction in a book published into 1485 by the editor Guyot Marchant.) The dances od death were mostly painted (or more rarely carved) on the outside walls of cloisters, of family vaults, of ossuaries or inside some churches. The dance of death of the Jesuits' college in Lucerne Before the first dance of death was created, there was a literary genre called Vado Mori (I prepare myself to die): poem written in Latin, of French origin, which went back to the 13th century. Je fis de Macabre la danse,Qui tout gent maine à sa traceE a la fosse les adresse. It is not farfetchedness to think that this poet had just escaped death when he wrote that.

The Dance of Death in the Middle Ages: Image, Text, Performance The macabre encounter of skeletons mocking the living has haunted Case Western Reserve University art historian Elina Gertsman’s imagination since childhood walks with her grandfather through the St. Nicholas Church in Tallinn, Estonia (now the Art Museum of Estonia). That childhood fascination led to Gertsman’s newly published book, The Dance of Death in the Middle Ages: Image, Text, Performance (Brepols, 2010), a rare and long-awaited volume on the subject. Gertsman is an assistant professor in the art history department, who started at the university in August. At Case Western Reserve University, she teaches courses on medieval art, including Gothic Art, Medieval Art, Women and Medieval Visual Culture and a seminar on Death in Medieval Art. The Dance of Death is a late medieval genre that, when incarnated as a large-scale public artwork, often combines images and text. The text accompanying the macabre images creates a dialogue between the living and Death.
