Public and Private Devotion in the Towns of Central Europe and North Italy / Stropno slikarstvo okoli leta 1700. Javna in zasebna pobožnost v mestih srednje Evrope in severne Italije, ki je potekal v Ljubljani od 16. do 18. oktobra 2008 v soorganizaciji Umetnostnozgodovinskega inštituta Fran- ceta Steleta ZRC SAZU in Raziskovalne skupine za baročno stropno slikarstvo v srednji Evropi (Research Group for Baroque Ceiling Painting in Central Europe).

Barbara Murovec Preface After fifteen years and fifteen issues, the scholarly journal Acta historiae artis Slovenica appears with a new design and publication frequency. It will now be published twice a year, in summer and at the end of the year. This transition is being marked by a double thematic volume, bringing together fifteen articles on Baroque ceiling painting in English, German and Italian, with summaries in Slovenian. They are based on papers presented at the international conference Ceiling Painting around 1700: Public and Private Devotion in the Towns of Central Europe and North Italy / Stropno slikarstvo okoli leta 1700. Javna in zasebna pobožnost v mestih srednje Evrope in severne Italije, held in Ljubljana between 16th and 18th October 2008, and organised by the France Stele Institute of Art History at the Sci- entificR esearch Centre of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts and the Research Group for Baroque Ceiling Painting in Central Europe. The President of the group, Prof. Dr. Frank Büttner from the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities, Dr. Martin Mádl from the Institute of Art History at the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic and Univ. Doz. Dr. Werner Telesko from the Commission for the History of Art at the Austrian Academy of Sciences collaborated on the organizing committee. The articles written by scholars from Austria, the Czech Republic, Ger- many, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia reveal new findings on Central European and Italian ceiling painting, a highly expressive art form typical of the 17th and 18th centuries, making significant contributions to our understanding of Baroque art. Barbara Murovec Baroque Ceiling Painting Public and Private Devotion in the Towns of Central Europe and Northern Italy DISSERTATIONES Acta historiae artis Slovenica 16|1–2 ∙ 2011, 11–28 Between Meditation and Propaganda Explicit and Implicit Religious Imagery in Baroque Ceiling Painting Martin Mádl Art history, and the history of early modern art in particular, rests on the assumption that artistic manifestations and the various types of artistic commission reflect the social and cultural environ- ment of their patrons.1 Although external structures cannot explain all the constituents of a visual culture, we could still agree that the social system influences certain aspects implicitly present in works of art. It is within the social framework that we can recognise and specify some of the principal conditions of artistic production and of the distribution and reception of art in general.2 In the sense of Karl R. Popper’s Open Society and its Enemies, European towns were examples of enclosed societies with a kind of collectivistic society for a long time. In the past, urban society was based on inner cohesion and personal relationships. Social life in urban communities was distin- guished by sharing and struggling for common goals and values, as well as by participation in their defence against common threats and interventions. In general, an enclosed society tends to behave as a kind of homogenous body, restraining personal initiatives, individual decisions and autonomous criticism. In consequence, supporting assimilation and integration and intervening against plural- ity is characteristic of an enclosed society. Although Popper’s concept was developed as a critique of modern totalitarian and authoritative

  • Austria As a 'Baroque Nation'. Institutional and Media Constructions
    Austria as a ‘Baroque Nation’. Institutional and media constructions Andreas Nierhaus Paris, 1900 When Alfred Picard, General Commissioner of the World Exhibition in Paris 1900, declared that the national pavilions of the ‘Rue des Nations’ along the river Seine should be erected in each country’s ‘style notoire’, the idea of characterizing a ‘nation’ through the use of a specific historical architectural or artistic style had become a monumental global axiom. Italy was represented by a paraphrase of St. Mark’s Cathedral in Venice, Spain chose the look of the Renaissance Alcazar, the United States selected a triumphant beaux-arts architecture, Germany moved into a castle-like building – in the style of the "German Renaissance", of course – and the United Kingdom built a Tudor country house. However, there were considerable doubts about the seriousness and soundness of such a masquerade: ‘Anyone wanting to study national styles at the Quai d' Orsay would fail to come to any appreciable results – just as the archaeologist who wants to collect material for costume design in a mask wardrobe [would equally fail]. Apart from few exceptions, what we find is prettily arranged festive theatrical decoration (...).’1 Whereas the defenders of modernism must have regarded this juxtaposition of styles as symbolic of an eclecticism that had become almost meaningless, both the organizers and the general public seemed very comfortable with the resulting historical spectacle. It was no coincidence that the Austrian Pavilion was given the form of a Baroque castle. (Fig. 1) Its architect Ludwig Baumann assembled meaningful quotes from the buildings of Johann Bernhard and Joseph Emanuel Fischer von Erlach, Lucas von Hildebrandt and Jean Nicolas Jadot in order to combine them into a new neo-Baroque whole.

  • Kultur Und Bildung
    Besprechungen 273 das schöne Beispiel der populären Hausväterliteratur nach dem griechisch-antikem Muster von „Oikonomikos“ des Xenophon. Die ökonomische Analyse, die ebenfalls in griechisch-antiker Tradition, nämlich in jener der Ethik und Staatslehre von Aristoteles steht, ist in der Sammlung durch die ungarischen Strophen von Albert Szenci Molnár (1630), eine Übersetzung des Werkes von Georg Zieger (Iosquinus Betuleius) sowie durch János Liskais Überset- zung (1641) des weitverbreiteten Werkes von Justus Lipsius vertreten. Auf römisch- antike Grundlagen, die Werke von Cato, Varro, Columella und Vergilius verweisen auch die populären Werke von János Lippai (1662 und 1664), István Losontzi (1773), Márton Vesmás (1774) und János Keresztély Nagy (1786), die nützliche Anweisun- gen zur Landwirtschaft, Viehzucht und ganz besonders zur Bienenzucht und Gar- tenkultur vermitteln. Monetarismus, Merkantilismus und Kameralismus, die frühneuzeitlichen Rich- tungen ökonomischen Denkens, sind in der Sammlung ebenfalls präsent. Ein hand- schriftlicher Kalendereintrag aus dem Jahre 1758 beschreibt den riskanten Seehan- del und die Geldwirtschaft wie folgt: »Diese Welt ist nichts anderes: ein stürmisches Meer / Tausende Bedrohungen lauern in ihren Galeeren / Geld ist hier der Steu- ermann und der Kapitän / Ohne das rudert ein jeder nur schwer.« (S. 15.) Diese Thematik, erweitert auf die Luxusdebatte und weitergeführt in ethischen Fragestel- lungen, erreicht ihren Höhepunkt in den Gedichten von Lőrinc Orczy. Von ihm stammt, gleichsam als Beitrag zur zeitgenössischen Diskussion über den handeln- den Adel, das Zitat im Titel dieses Bandes: »Ziemt es dem Magyaren, betrügerischen Handel zu treiben?« Zu gleicher Zeit, in den 1780er Jahren entstanden aber auch die theoretisch fun- dierten Texte der Wirtschaftspolitik und von deren Kritik, so die Verordnung Jo- sephs II.

He was 91 and lived in Cresskill, N.J. The New York Times, 1964 Craig Hugh Smyth The cause was a heart attack, his daughter, Alexandra, said. Mr. Smyth led the first academic program in conservation in the United States in 1960 as the director of the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University. Long before he began his academic career, he worked in the recovery of stolen art. After the defeat of Germany in World War II, Mr. Smyth was made director of the Munich Central Collecting Point, set up by the Allies for works that they retrieved. There, he received art and cultural relics confiscated by the Nazis, cared for them and tried to return them to their owners or their countries of origin. He served as a lieutenant in the United States Naval Reserve during the war, and the art job was part of his military service. Upon returning from Germany in 1946, he lectured at the Frick Collection and, in 1949, was awarded a Fulbright research fellowship, which took him to Florence, Italy.

  • Klára Garas (1919–2017)
    KLÁRA GARAS (1919–2017) IN MEMORIAM Art historian Klára Garas, retired director-general of Budapest are all following in Klára Garas’ footsteps, the Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest, as well as inter- continuing her life’s work together with other Central nationally the best known Hungarian researcher of the European researchers of the baroque. baroque, died at the age of 98, on 26 June 2017. Fate favoured her with a long life. At 90 she was sitting at the opening event of the exhibition Maulbertsch and Winterhalder staged in her honour and to celebrate her birthday in the Hungarian National Gallery in Budapest (Fig. 1), listening to Maulbertsch’ great con- temporary Joseph Haydn’s piano trio with the famous “Rondo all’ongarese” movement. The exhibition of the Hungarian National Gallery in tribute to her was a merger of two showings. One was about Maulbertsch’ most important pupil, Winterhalder’s work. It was organized by Czech art historians under Lubomir Slavícˇek’s guidance, with the participation of Central European researchers. It was first put on display in Langenargen, the native town of Maulbertsch, and brought to Budapest via Olomouc. The other exhibi- tion was the work of Hungarian art historians led by Anna Jávor. It centred on the activity and works of Maulbertsch and Winterhalder in Hungary, with sig- nificant pieces also loaned from abroad(Fig. 2).1 It was a worthy homage to Klára Garas, who published her monumental monograph of Maulbertsch half a century earlier, in 1960. It was undoubtedly her chef d’oeuvre, which has been the foundation of research into the art of Maulbertsch and his circle and into eighteenth- century Central European painting until today.
