The models are used as examples of wall decoration in the Alhambresque style. 1850 - 1929 Spain Fine And Applied Arts The style of the Neo-Mudéjar artistic movement is used in buildings and artworks, especially ceramic and metalware. These pieces are displayed in different international exhibitions (e.g. London 1851, Paris 1878). Circa 1850 - Circa 1900 France Fine And Applied Arts The Realist movement, which emerges as a reaction to Classicism, focuses on the faithful reproduction of the “reality” of daily life in both town and country. This movement, which affected literature and painting in particular, shocked some people. Orientalism (i.e. the painters Fromentin, Ingres and Gérôme) favoured subjects inspired by travel to the Near East. 1850 France Fine And Applied Arts A Burial At Ornans by the Realist painter Gustave Courbet. 1850 - 1900 Germany Fine And Applied Arts The painting by Max Liebermann, Die Gänserupferinnen (1872), exemplifies Impressionism in art at this time. 1850 - 1855 Italy Fine And Applied Arts The painters of the School of Posillipo (Naples) develop a new style of more natural observation of landscapes and everyday life. 1850 Spain Fine And Applied Arts First photography of Arab monuments such as the Alhambra and the Great Mosque of Córdoba.

  • Russian Art of the Avant-Garde
    Russian Art of the Avant-Garde THE DOCUMENTS OF 20TH-CENTURY ART ROBERT MOTHERWELL, General Editor BERNARD KARPEL, Documentary Editor ARTHUR A. COHEN Managing Editor Russian Art of the Avant-Garde Theory and Criticism 1902-1934 Edited and Translated by John E. Bowlt Printed in U.S.A. Acknowledgments: Harvard University Press and Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd.: "Realistic Manifesto" from Gabo by Naum Gabo. Copyright © 1957 by Lund Humphries. Reprinted by permission. Thames and Hudson Ltd.: "Suprematism in World Reconstruction, 1920" by El Lissitsky. This collection of published statements by Russian artists and critics is in- tended to fill a considerable gap in our general knowledge of the ideas and theories peculiar to modernist Russian art, particularly within the context of painting. Although monographs that present the general chronological framework of the Russian avant-garde are available, most observers have comparatively little idea of the principal theoretical intentions of such move- ments as symbolism, neoprimitivism, rayonism, and constructivism. In gen- eral, the aim of this volume is to present an account of the Russian avant- garde by artists themselves in as lucid and as balanced a way as possible. While most of the essays of Vasilii Kandinsky and Kazimir Malevich have already been translated into English, the statements of Mikhail Larionov, Natalya Goncharova, and such little-known but vital figures as Vladimir Markov and Aleksandr Shevchenko have remained inaccessible to the wider public either in Russian or in English. A similar situation has prevailed with regard to the Revolutionary period, when such eminent critics and artists as Anatolii Lunacharsky, Nikolai Punin, and David Shterenberg were in the forefront of artistic ideas.
