  • Proceedings and Notes 2011
    THE ART WORKERS’ GUILD PROCEEDINGS AND NOTES : NUMBER 26 : FEBRUARY 2012 MESSAGE FROM THE MASTER At this time of year, January/February, the moment comes to rake the fire in the hope of getting it going again in the morning. It is my favourite time of the year, by reason of the subtlety of colour which draws your attention to the slightest change of tone both in nature and in buildings. The sedge is with’red on the lake And no bird sings. Filigree trees, almost colourless horizons, dark accents in the foreground that are not really dark at all. It is not that this light can’t be found in Europe or elsewhere, but to uncover the beauty to be found in such insignificance you need to live in these islands. The colours reminiscent of the raw materials of craft, of vegetable dyes, semi-precious stones, various kinds of wood and a hundred different shades of brick; dead- ness without rottenness. Cold weather that is invigorating, mild weather which is somnolent and almost inert; this is a good time of year to put one’s house in order. I take my place in a very long line of people who have railed against the destruction of the countryside, but actually it hasn’t all gone (as I like to tell myself) and in fact, if it is destroyed it grows back remarkably quickly. It is the same with the arts. If at any time standards seem to slip one doesn’t have to wait long before a new avenue opens up in which those lost virtues can be expressed.

  • Konturen 1 (2008) 1 Eruptions of the Ethical Baroque Steven Shankman
    Konturen 1 (2008) 1 Eruptions of the Ethical Baroque Steven Shankman University of Oregon Renaissance perspective constructs objective reality from the viewpoint of a sovereign subject. The border protecting the sovereignty of this subject is sometimes crossed, in the Baroque, by means of the subject’s sudden awareness of the humanity of the other person and of our inescapable responsibility for that unique and irreplaceable other. With examples from music, painting, and literature, I discuss what I call “eruptions of the ethical Baroque.” These eruptions trouble the serenity of the arts and haunt us: one such eruption reveals, to the Christian warrior- crusader Tancredi, the face of the apparently Muslim female warrior Clorinda, in Monteverdi’s Combattimento (1624); another reveals, to Abraham—in Rembrandt’s 1635 painting of “The Sacrifice of Isaac”— the face of his son Isaac and then suddenly interrupts what appeared to have been an imminent murder; another forces us to encounter, in Shakespeare’s disruptively sober prose, Shylock’s Jewish eyes; yet another, in Paul Celan’s arguably modern Baroque poem Tenebrae, interrupts—but too late, tragically—the profoundly enchanting pathos of François Couperin’s high Baroque choral masterpiece, Leçons de ténèbres, which inspired Celan’s poem. What, exactly, is the Baroque? Modern theorists—such as Gilles Deleuze, with his notion of the fold—have discussed its significance and pondered the question of whether or not there is such a phenomenon as the Baroque.1 The word Baroque was not used by any of the artists and thinkers of the historical period—the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries in Europe—sometimes referred to by this term.
