  • Aesthetica Issue 100 Celebrations
    Aesthetica Magazine commemorates 100 issues, launching the milestone edition at the Future Now Symposium, with a dedicated day of innovative masterclasses. Aesthetica Magazine reaches a significant milestone in 2021, publishing the 100th issue of the magazine, and marking 18 years of independent publishing. This special edition will be launched with a full day of virtual talks at the Future Now Symposium (28 April), celebrating one of the UK’s leading art and culture publications, founded in York, UK. Kicking the day off, between 09.30 and 10.30, audiences can hear from both of Aesthetica’s founders, Cherie Federico and Dale Donley, to learn more about the journey of starting Aesthetica Magazine as a project and developing the publication into one of the world’s leading voices for art and design, with a reach of 500,000, as well as a platform for creativity across the Art Prize, Creative Writing Award and Film Festival. A series of talks bring the 100th issue of Aesthetica to life, including an examination of international lighting design with Sarah Schleuning, Dallas Museum of Art; and Cindi Strauss, Museum of Fine Arts Houston. From the invention of the first electric light by Humphry Davy in 1808 to Phillips’ development of the “ultraefficient” lightbulb in 2011, lighting technology has fascinated engineers, scientists and designers worldwide. This session brings the last century of into focus. Hear from some of our favourite photographers over the years, including Ellie Davies, Kevin Cooley, Ryan Schude, Yannis Davy Guibinga and Brooke DiDonato. In this creative panel discussion, we ask: how do you take a photograph in a new way? How far can you push the ideas in order to create something that is captivating and also contributes to wider discourse on image-making? Closing the first day of the festival, at 18.30-19.30, 100th issue cover photographer Kriss Munsya considers the power of images to reclaim identities and tackle internalised structures.

  • Rediscovering George Barbier, Art Deco Illustrator And
    REDISCOVERING GEORGE BARBIER, ART DECO ILLUSTRATOR AND COSTUME DESIGNER EXTRAORDINAIRE We begin at the ending. 15 March 1932 witnessed the passing of George Barbier in Paris at the relatively young age of 50 after two years with an unknown illness. His funeral was held four days later at 7:45 A.M. in his native city of Nantes, on the Loire River in the west of France. It was an obscure ending to a truly remarkable life lived to its fullest among the high society and rich artistic scene that was Paris in the first quarter of the 20th century. His social circle included such notables as the poet Robert de Montesquiou, author Marcel Proust and jeweller Louis Cartier. Born into the wealthy home of Nantes export/import merchant Charles Barbier and his wife Marie Mathilde Ertaud in 1882, Georges demonstrated his artistic talent at an early age. He was a student at the École régionale du Dessin et des Beaux‐Arts in Nantes, where he could be found reproducing paintings housed in the local museum by such notable artists as Antoine Watteau and Ingres. He is believed to have spent several years in London before enrolling in the Paris studio of Jean‐Paul Laurens at the Académie Julien in 1908. His time in England is shrouded in mystery, but his personal library that was dispersed upon his death housed numerous titles illustrated by leading English illustrators such as William Blake, Charles Ricketts, Gustave Doré, Arthur Rackham, and the famous Aubrey Beardsley. Barbier also owned personal correspondence by Beardsley, as well as some of his original illustrations for works by Edgar Allan Poe.

  • Van Gogh Museum Journal 2002
    Van Gogh Museum Journal 2002 bron Van Gogh Museum Journal 2002. Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam 2002 Zie voor verantwoording: http://www.dbnl.org/tekst/_van012200201_01/colofon.php © 2012 dbnl / Rijksmuseum Vincent Van Gogh 7 Director's foreword In 2003 the Van Gogh Museum will have been in existence for 30 years. Our museum is thus still a relative newcomer on the international scene. Nonetheless, in this fairly short period, the Van Gogh Museum has established itself as one of the liveliest institutions of its kind, with a growing reputation for its collections, exhibitions and research programmes. The past year has been marked by particular success: the Van Gogh and Gauguin exhibition attracted record numbers of visitors to its Amsterdam venue. And in this Journal we publish our latest acquisitions, including Manet's The jetty at Boulogne-sur-mer, the first important work by this artist to enter any Dutch public collection. By a happy coincidence, our 30th anniversary coincides with the 150th of the birth of Vincent van Gogh. As we approach this milestone it seemed to us a good moment to reflect on the current state of Van Gogh studies. For this issue of the Journal we asked a number of experts to look back on the most significant developments in Van Gogh research since the last major anniversary in 1990, the centenary of the artist's death. Our authors were asked to filter a mass of published material in differing areas, from exhibition publications to writings about fakes and forgeries. To complement this, we also invited a number of specialists to write a short piece on one picture from our collection, an exercise that is intended to evoke the variety and resourcefulness of current writing on Van Gogh.
