Las mujeres en la historia del arte La ausencia de mujeres artistas en los museos o en las enciclopedias de arte clásico puede dar la impresión de que el rol de las mujeres en el arte se ha limitado al de musas y modelos. Lo cierto es que las mujeres han tenido una presencia activa constante como artesanas y artistas pese a los obstáculos con los que se encontraron para dedicarse al arte en distintas épocas debido a su género. Unas pocas artistas incluso alcanzaron renombre internacional y una buena posición económica y social durante su tiempo y, sin embargo, la historia del arte las condenó al olvido durante siglos. Las mujeres en la historia del arte Las investigaciones de antropólogos, arqueólogos y etnógrafos sugieren que la mujer prehistórica no estaba sometida al hombre. De las civilizaciones grecorromanas han llegado a nuestros días textos y objetos que demuestran que las mujeres participaban junto con los hombres en actividades culturales como la pintura, la poesía, la música o la producción de textiles y cerámicas.

Rose Magazine, Articles on Roses, Rose Forum, Rose Gardening Photos of Children From Around the World With Their Most Prized Possessions Chiwa – Mchinji, Malawi Shot over a period of 18 months, Italian photographer Gabriele Galimberti‘s project Toy Stories compiles photos of children from around the world with their prized possesions—their toys. Galimberti explores the universality of being a kid amidst the diversity of the countless corners of the world, saying, “at their age, they are pretty all much the same; they just want to play.” But it’s how they play that seemed to differ from country to country. There were similarites too, especially in the functional and protective powers the toys represented for their proud owners.

Il corpo ferito come rigenerazione e arte – CRITICA IMPURA Di VITALDO CONTE* La dimensione sciamanica è presente nelle ultime espressioni d’arte del corpo estremo, vissute come un teatro di Live Art. Questo vuole evocare pratiche di colloquio con il mondo “altro” per trovare espressioni nella realtà. La stessa nudità, esibita negli eventi senza riserve, aspira a divenire uno stato rituale, in quanto questo esporsi vuole vincere il pudore e i tabù: il corpo è considerato un contenitore di pura materialità, avulso da ogni proiezione morale. Questa mistica d’arte esige, talvolta, la visibilità di un “di-segno” di sangue sull’epidermide-anima. La ferita, come “segnatura” d’arte, è difficilmente separabile, per la propria intrinseca espressione, dalle motivazioni oscure dell’autore e dalle conseguenti sue vicende umane. Diverse risultano le espressioni d’arte che si manifestano attraverso il sangue del corpo: l’Happening, la Body e Live Art, la Ritual Art, ecc. * Il testo, ripreso da Tradizione Avanguardia.

Artist Digitally Recreates His Childhood Drawings 20 Years Later Netherlands-based artist Telmo Pieper took old childhood drawings which he then recreated as digital illustrations in a series called “Kiddie Arts”… Telmo Pieper | via laughingsquid peinture | Gauguin et le primitivisme Paul Gauguin, Auti Te Pape (Women at the River), from Noa Noa, 1893–94, Gravure sur bois imprimée par Gauguin, Art Institute Chicago Noa Noa, le récit de voyage de Gauguin a eu une histoire mouvementée. Catherine Maubon, professeur à l’université de Sienne, dans son article « Noa Noa, une fable exotique » parle de la quête du primitif de Gauguin à travers l’élaboration de cette oeuvre écrite. Cet article est disponible dans son intégralité sur Persée (p 19- 46) et nous permet de mieux comprendre l’oeuvre Noa Noa disponible sur Gallica (voir article “Noa Noa”, dans la catégorie “Source”). L’auteure commence par évoquer le départ de Gauguin et la quête qui le motive. Ainsi cet article nous apporte un éclairage sur la démarche de Gauguin dans l’écriture de ce texte et par ailleurs elle nous explique que la collaboration a été plutôt un échec pour Gauguin. Le manuscrit original se trouvait chez le marchand Edmond Sagot.
