  • Incisioni, Richiestissime Da Un Mercato Molto Fiorente, Giunge Ora Una Rassegna Di Rilevante Interesse, Che Si Apre Oggi Alle 17 Nei Saloni Della Biblioteca Palatina
    Parmigianino e l’incisione <Padre dell'acquaforte italiana> l'ha definito Mary Pittaluga. E Giovanni Copertini ha specificato <Sebbene non si possa più considerare come l'inventore della tecnica dell'acquaforte, pure è da esserne stimato il creatore spirituale ché, con le sue stampe, ha insegnato agli artisti a trasfondere luce d'idealità in poche linee e in un tenue motivo di segni incrociati>. E' questo il lato meno noto del Parmigianino: incantevole pittore, straordinario disegnatore e anche abilissimo incisore; una caratteristica, quella di grafico, che nella grandiosa mostra allestita per celebrare il quinto centenario della nascita dell'artista passa un po' inosservata di fronte alla parata affascinante dei dipinti e dei disegni. Ad illuminare questo aspetto non secondario dell'attività del Parmigianino sia come autore diretto sia soprattutto come fornitore di disegni da trasformare in incisioni, richiestissime da un mercato molto fiorente, giunge ora una rassegna di rilevante interesse, che si apre oggi alle 17 nei saloni della Biblioteca Palatina (fino al 27 settembre) e che ha come titolo <Parmigianino tradotto. La fortuna di Francesco Mazzola nelle stampe di riproduzione tra il Cinquecento e l'Ottocento>. La correda un catalogo, pubblicato dalla Silvana Editoriale, comprendente la presentazione del direttore della Biblioteca Leonardo Farinelli, un approfondito saggio critico di Massimo Mussini e un'introduzione alle schede di Grazia Maria de Rubeis, responsabile del gabinetto delle stampe; il volume documenta tutte le incisioni <parmigianinesche> posseduta dalla Palatina, comprese quelle non esposte, cosicché assume un notevole valore scientifico in un settore ancora scarsamente esplorato con sistematicità. E' a Roma, dove si trasferisce nel 1524, che Francesco Mazzola entra nell'ambiente degli incisori fornendo disegni a Ugo da Carpi, considerato il padre della silografia, e a Jacopo Caraglio, incisore a bulino allievo di Marco Antonio Raimondi.

  • The Greatest Artists of the Twentieth Century
    This PDF is a selection from a published volume from the National Bureau of Economic Research Volume Title: Conceptual Revolutions in Twentieth-Century Art Volume Author/Editor: David W. Galenson Volume Publisher: Cambridge University Press Volume ISBN: 978-0-521-11232-1 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/gale08-1 Publication Date: October 2009 Title: The Greatest Artists of the Twentieth Century Author: David W. Galenson URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c5785 Chapter 2: The Greatest Artists of the Twentieth Century Introduction The masters, truth to tell, are judged as much by their influence as by their works. Emile Zola, 18841 Important artists are innovators: they are important because they change the way their successors work. The more widespread, and the more profound, the changes due to the work of any artist, the greater is the importance of that artist. Recognizing the source of artistic importance points to a method of measuring it. Surveys of art history are narratives of the contributions of individual artists. These narratives describe and explain the changes that have occurred over time in artists’ practices. It follows that the importance of an artist can be measured by the attention devoted to his work in these narratives. The most important artists, whose contributions fundamentally change the course of their discipline, cannot be omitted from any such narrative, and their innovations must be analyzed at length; less important artists can either be included or excluded, depending on the length of the specific narrative treatment and the tastes of the author, and if they are included their contributions can be treated more summarily.

  • Che Si Conoscono Al Suo Già Detto Segno Vasari's Connoisseurship In
    Che si conoscono al suo già detto segno Vasari’s connoisseurship in the field of engravings Stefano Pierguidi The esteem in which Giorgio Vasari held prints and engravers has been hotly debated in recent criticism. In 1990, Evelina Borea suggested that the author of the Lives was basically interested in prints only with regard to the authors of the inventions and not to their material execution,1 and this theory has been embraced both by David Landau2 and Robert Getscher.3 More recently, Sharon Gregory has attempted to tone down this highly critical stance, arguing that in the life of Marcantonio Raimondi 'and other engravers of prints' inserted ex novo into the edition of 1568, which offers a genuine history of the art from Maso Finiguerra to Maarten van Heemskerck, Vasari focused on the artist who made the engravings and not on the inventor of those prints, acknowledging the status of the various Agostino Veneziano, Jacopo Caraglio and Enea Vico (among many others) as individual artists with a specific and recognizable style.4 In at least one case, that of the Martyrdom of St. Lawrence engraved by Raimondi after a drawing by Baccio Bandinelli, Vasari goes so far as to heap greater praise on the engraver, clearly distinguishing the technical skills of the former from those of the inventor: [...] So when Marcantonio, having heard the whole story, finished the plate he went before Baccio could find out about it to the Pope, who took infinite 1 Evelina Borea, 'Vasari e le stampe', Prospettiva, 57–60, 1990, 35. 2 David Landau, 'Artistic Experiment and the Collector’s Print – Italy', in David Landau and Peter Parshall, The Renaissance Print 1470 - 1550, New Haven and London: Yale University Press, 1994, 284.

Rosso Fiorentino Drawings, Prints and Decorative Arts consists of 117 objects, including 28 drawings by Rosso, 80 prints after his compositions, majolica and enamel platters, and tapestries made from his designs. On view through Jan. 3, 1988, the exhibition is supported by an indemnity from the Federal Council on the Arts and the Humanities. Giovanni Battista di Jacopo (1494-1540), best known as Rosso Fiorentino, worked in Florence from 1513 until 1524, when he went to Rome. He left the city during the infamous Sack of Rome in 1527, wandering about Italy until 1530, when he went to France to work for King Francis I at Fontainebleau. Rosso began his career with a style modeled on the art of the Florentine Renaissance, but he is now seen as one of the founders of the anticlassical style called Mannerism. An intense and eccentric individual, Rosso was internationally famous in the 16th century while today he is most readily recognized for his work at Fontainebleau and for the great impact of his Italian style on French art.
