When La Biennale di Venezia Meets History does not just convey the content that visitors to the Central Pavilion in the Giardini della Biennale will encounter, but also a vision. Disquiet serves as a driving force behind research, which requires dialogue to verify its theories and needs history to absorb knowledge. This is what La Biennale does and will continue to do as it seeks to reinforce a methodology that creates even stronger bonds between its own disciplines. There are six Muses at the Biennale: Art, Architecture, Cinema, Theatre, Music and Dance, given a voice through the great events that fill Venice and the world every year. There are the places that serve as venues for all of La Biennale’s activities: the Giardini, the Arsenale, the Palazzo del Cinema and other cinemas on the Lido, the theatres, the city of Venice itself.

  • CFA VN 321 Sculpture Studio Instructor: Prof
    BOSTON UNIVERSITY STUDY ABROAD VENICE FALL SEMESTER 2015 Course: CFA VN 321 Sculpture Studio Instructor: Prof. Giuseppe La Bruna Class location: @ Accademia di Belle Arti, Room 4 Class appointments: Wednesdays 12.00pm‐6.00pm Office Hours: by appointment Course Value: 4 credits Course description The course aims to provide students with Sculpture fundamentals starting from the bas relief to the full relief sculpture with cultural references to the History of Sculpture and past and modern Art. It includes an analysis of artworks of modern and past artists so as to help define the peculiarities of each student and their individual language, but also artistic language in general. Students will learn how to correctly use tools and materials with respect to their peculiarities and to the project. Students will be introduced to the understanding of sculpture as a whole, substantial and well‐coordinated. At first, students will investigate the pure concept of volume – shapes, lines, relationship among mass, light and shadows, with relation to the different kind of materials, to the space where the artwork will be collocated and so on. The instructor will provide some technical sheets with regard to the sculptures proposed during the class. Details and characteristics will be read and discussed in class. Drawing is considered a required exercise and it is fundamental for each preparatory study. The course is taught on a project‐approach so that students will learn the specificity of the profession, of old and modern tools, techniques, as well as the poetics and artistic languages of sculpture. Through their work and the interaction with the instructor, each student should be able to develop the most important goal of their career becoming independent thinkers who are able to proceed in their life and work with self‐confidence also outside of the academic environment.

    National and International Modernism in Italian Sculpture from 1935-1959 by Antje K. Gamble A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History of Art) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Professor Alexander D. Potts, Chair Associate Professor Giorgio Bertellini Professor Matthew N. Biro Sharon Hecker Associate Professor Claire A. Zimmerman Associate Professor Rebecca Zurier Copyright: Antje K. Gamble, 2015 © Acknowledgements As with any large project, this dissertation could not have been completed without the support and guidance of a large number of individuals and institutions. I am glad that I have the opportunity to acknowledge them here. There were a large number of funding sources that allowed me to study, travel, and conduct primary research that I want to thank: without them, I would not have been able to do the rich archival study that has, I think, made this dissertation an important contribution to the field. For travel funding to Italy, I thank the Horace R. Rackham Graduate School at the University of Michigan for its support with the Rackham International International Research Award and the Rackham Rackham Humanities Research Fellowship. For writing support and U.S.-based research funding, I thank the Department of History of Art at the University of Michigan, the Rackham Graduate School, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and the University of Michigan Museum of Art. For conference travel support, I thank the Horace R. Rackham Graduate School, the Department of History of Art, and the American Association of Italian Studies. While in Italy, I was fortunate enough to work with a great number of amazing scholars, archivists, librarians and museum staff who aided in my research efforts.

  • La Recepción De La Escultura Italiana En La Posguerra Española: Eugenio D’Ors Y Cristino Mallo
    ARCHIVO ESPAÑOL DE ARTE, LXXXII, 327 JULIO-SEPTIEMBRE 2009, pp. 273-284 ISSN: 0004-0428 LA RECEPCIÓN DE LA ESCULTURA ITALIANA EN LA POSGUERRA ESPAÑOLA: EUGENIO D’ORS Y CRISTINO MALLO POR ANA ARA FERNÁNDEZ Universidad de Zaragoza En el presente artículo se analiza la recepción que tuvo la escultura italiana de artistas como Francesco Messina, Arturo Martini, Marino Marini o Giacomo Manzù, tanto en la crítica artística como en los pro- pios escultores españoles. Sus obras, caracterizadas por la plasmación de figuras rotundas en situaciones cotidianas, fueron bien vistas a los ojos de críticos que, como el influyente Eugenio D’Ors, pretendían la recuperación de las raíces más clásicas del arte español al estilo del Novecentismo italiano. El escultor español Cristino Mallo fue uno de los artistas en los que el poso italianizante caló más hondo. Palabras clave: Escultura; España; Italia; Años 40; Francesco Messina; Arturo Martini; Marino Marini; Giacomo Manzù; Cristino Mallo; Eugenio D’Ors. This article examines the impact of Italian sculpture by artists such as Francesco Messina, Arturo Martini, Marino Marini or Giacomo Manzù on both art criticism and sculptors in Spain. Their works, characterized by the capture of expressive figures in ordinary situations, were well-received by critics like the influential Eugenio D’Ors, who aspired to recuperate the classical roots of Spanish art in the style of the Italian Novecento art movement. This Italian influence made an extraordinarily deep impression on the Spanish sculptor Cristino Mallo. Key words: Sculpture; Spain; Italy; 1940’s; Francesco Messina; Arturo Martini; Marino Marini; Gia- como Manzù; Cristino Mallo; Eugenio D’Ors.
