The series includes landscapes, still lifes, traditional portraits, the artist’s first polyptychs (Faith Means Not Wanting to Know What is True, 2012 and The Confession, 2013), the entire series of The Altarpieces (2014–16), as well as that of Memento Mori (2016). In each of these paintings, Utarit assembles revisited fragments of works of Western art from the fifteenth through the nineteenth centurie¢s and places them within an architectural space defined in accordance with per- The Perils of Optimism spectival canons of Western painting, which he intermingles with iconographic elements from his own culture, icons of modernism and contemporary art and objects and animals with a high symbolic valence. Despite the fact that the entire composition is a visually coherent whole, when examined individually, The Art of Natee Utarit the figures come forth to ultimately create an effect of temporal engulfment in various historical moments, while not interrupting the work’s sense of unity. It is as if each element, with its own historical baggage, emerged from its re- spective time period creating a chaotic vision of the present. By constructing a narrative, and symbolically connoting the subjects by putting them in rela- tion with one another, Utarit achieves a representation that transcends both his own culture and those which he taps into. Consequently, the geographic DEMETRIO PAPARONI and temporal scenery in his paintings is characterized by a language that is highly aware of the effect that the many cultural and spiritual developments throughout history have had on contemporary man. Born in 1970 in Bangkok, Thailand, where he completed his studies and presently works, Utarit does not belong to the vast group of artists who chose to move to a major Western capital and obtain dual citizenship, and whose work is attributable to both their country of origin and their adoptive country. Despite the numerous references made to language, genres and iconographic themes found in European art, his use of discordant references allows him to fuse the analysis of pictorial language with mythical-religious, political and folk narratives, all of which are related to the present day through narrative expedients and philosophical conceptions that create a dyscrasy between lan- guage and subject. 7 His interest in the dynamics by which the Occident exerted its influence on Southeast Asia, both in lifestyle and art, has led Utarit to focus his atten- tion on the history of Thailand, the only country in the area which avoided Western colonization. Despite having preserved its political independence, be- ginning in the mid-nineteenth century Thai society has been influenced by the political and commercial relations maintained with Great Britain, and by the introduction to a Western academic and legislative system. While promoting this change in an attempt to preserve the country’s independence, King Rama IV sought to introduce Eastern Buddhist values to the West, which claimed to merit a hegemonic position due to the su- periority of its scientific, technological and cultural acquisitions. Utarit has closely observed the experi- ence of painter and Buddhist monk In Khong, who in the mid-nineteenth century was ap- pointed to paint murals in various Buddhist temples by King Rama IV (1804–1868), with whom he had spent a period of time in the monkhood. At a time in which the Siam was to tirelessly defend itself from the pres- sures of Western colonization, the Master In Khong adopted a narrative style reminiscent of its European counterpart in order to il- lustrate certain aspects of Buddhist doctrine. Having no direct knowledge of European art, he relied on reproductions found on labels, postcards and shipping crates for guidance.

  • Art on the Page
    Art on the page Toward a modern illustrated book When Parisian art dealer Ambroise Vollard issued his first publication, Parallèlement, in 1900, a collection of poems by Paul Verlaine illustrated with lithographs by Impressionist painter Pierre Bonnard, he ushered in a new form of illustrated book to mark the new century. In the following decades, he and other entrepreneurial art publishers such as Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler and Albert Skira would take advantage of a widening pool of book collectors interested in modern art by producing deluxe books that featured original prints by artists such as Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Georges Rouault, André Derain and others. These books are generally referred to as livres des artistes and, unlike the fine press publications produced by the Kelmscott Press, the Doves Press or Ashendene Press, the earliest examples were distinguished by their modernity. Breon Mitchell, in his introduction to Beyond illustration, argues that the livre d’artiste can be differentiated from the traditional book in several respects: The illustrations are, in each case, original works of art (woodcuts, lithographs, etchings, engravings) executed by the artist himself and printed under his supervision. The book thus contains original graphics of the kind which find their place on museum walls … The livre d’artiste is also defined by the stature of the artist. Virtually every major painter and sculptor of the twentieth century—Picasso, Braque, Ernst, Matisse, Kokoschka, Barlach, Miró, to name a few—has collaborated in the creation of one or more such works. In many cases, book illustration has occupied such an important place in the total oeuvre of the artist that no student of art history can safely ignore it.

  • Surrealist Masculinities
    UC-Lyford.qxd 3/21/07 12:44 PM Page 15 CHAPTER ONE Anxiety and Perversion in Postwar Paris ans Bellmer’s photographs of distorted and deformed dolls from the early 1930s seem to be quintessential examples of surrealist misogyny (see Fig. 4). Their violently erotic Hreorganization of female body parts into awkward wholes typifies the way in which surrealist artists and writers manipulated and objectified femininity in their work. Bellmer’s manipulation and reconstruction of the female form also encourage comparison with the mutilation and reconstruction that prevailed across Europe during World War I. By viewing the dolls in this context, we might see their distorted forms as a displacement of male anxiety onto the bodies of women. Thus, Bellmer’s work—and the work of other male surrealists who de- picted fragmented female bodies—might reflect not only misogyny but also the disavowal of emasculation through symbolic transference. The fabrication of these dolls also expresses a link to consumer society. The dolls look as if they could be surrealist mannequins made by the prosthetic industry; their deformed yet interlocking parts reflect a chilling combination of mass-market eroticism and wartime bodily trauma. These connections between misogyny and emasculation anxiety, between eroticism and the horror of war trauma, and between consump- tion and desire are not specific to Bellmer’s idiosyncratic visual rhetoric, however. The practice of joining contradictory approaches and blurring boundaries between objects, identities, and media was more prevalent among the male surrealists than is usually acknowledged. If we open our eyes to consider these contrasts as part of a broader surrealist agenda, we can see how the surrealists aimed to destabilize their viewers’ assumptions about the boundaries 15 Copyrighted Material UC-Lyford.qxd 3/21/07 12:44 PM Page 16 FIGURE 4 Hans Bellmer, Poupée, 1935.

  • 'Northern Gods in Marble'
    ‘NORTHERN GODS IN MARBLE’ The Romantic Rediscovery Marble of Norse Mythology [ KNUT LJØGODT ABSTRACT The Norse myths were rediscovered in the late 18th century, and became important to contemporary culture during the first half of the 19th century. The Romantics discussed the usage of themes from Norse mythology; soon, these themes became widespread in art and literature. Their popularity is closely connected with the national ideals and political situations of the period, but they were often given individual artistic interpretations. The ] Romantic interest in Norse myths and heroes held sway over artists and writers throughout the 19th century. KEYWORDS Norse myths, Norse heroes, pagan religion, Knud Baade, Romanticism vs Classicism. Introduction Karen Blixen’s short story ‘Sorrow-Acre’, published in Winter’s Tales (1942) takes place at a Danish country estate in the late 18th century. During a conversation between the baron and his nephew, they discuss Classical versus Norse mythol- ogy. The young man has discovered the Norse myths through a recently pub- lished work: ‘He mentioned the name of the author, Johannes Ewald, and recited a couple of the elevated verses.’ The book he refers to is Ewald’s play The Death of Balder (1775). He goes on to praise the Norse gods: ‘And I have wondered, while I read,’ he went on after a pause, still moved by the lines he himself had declaimed, ‘that we have not till now understood how much our Nordic my- thology in moral greatness surpasses that of Greece and Rome. If it had not been for the physical beauty of the ancient gods, which have come down to us in marble, no modern mind could hold them worthy of worship.

  • Lamentation of Christ
    Francisco de Goya y Lucientes Lamentation of Christ Painted about 1767/68. Oil on cartoon on canvas. Measurements: 35 x 23 cm (13 ³/ x 9 inches) Description We are facing a picture representing a Lamentation of Christ whose authorship is unanimously assigned to Goya in the catalogues by Gudiol 1970 n8 /1980 n5; Gassier & Wilson1970 n8/1984 n12; De Angelis 1974 /76 n19; Camón Aznar 1980 pág. 42; Xavier de Salas 1984 n9; J.L. Morales 1990 n6 / 1997 n3; Arturo Ansón "Goya y Zaragoza" 1995 pág. 61; catalogue online Fundación Goya y Aragón, año 2012. All these authors coincide in dating this work between 1768 and 1770, just before his journey to Italy, and in considering it one of the devotional paintings young Goya carried out at Fuendetodos. This would coincide with his origin of having belonged, according to Gudiol, to a family of Fuendetodos. The IOMR has made a comparative study of the painting in which we point out its stylistic analogies with other works by Goya: The immediacy and reality with which the painter treats the scene so that one may feel it close to life and real, where the artist reveals the human pathos of death with no conventional mannerisms, excluding figures of the celestial world, such as angels, which might confuse his pure sense of reality so that what first surprises one in the picture and what, in fact, makes it closer to Goya and therefore reminds one of the engraving, Desastre Nº 26 No se puede mirar and Nº 14 of the same series, Duro es el paso in which Goya treats death with a completely contemporary closeness.

Gift of Charles R. Crane, 13.1.1 Fall 2020 Faculty Curriculum: Resiliency and Surviving Trauma Artist Biography Few surviving archival documents provide us with details of the life and career of the painter Colijn de Coter (Netherlandish, ca. 1455—ca. 1538/1539). His name is mentioned in the contracts for two artworks (both of which are now lost or unidentified) and is inscribed on only three surviving paintings, although more have been attributed to him (like the Chazen’s painting). His birthdate can be extrapolated from the information presented in a later document dated 1479 in which he is described as a married painter and the tenant of a house in Brussels. He appears registered as a free master with the painters’ Guild of St. Luke in Antwerp as “Colyn van Brusele” (Colin of Brussels), who was commissioned to paint the vault of a chapel near Mechelen. The account books of the Brussels Confraternity of St. Eligius record that the artist was paid for a painting between 1509 and 1511. He likely died in or shortly before 1538-39. Known at the time as the “Low Countries,” the areas of present-day Belgium (including Brussels), Luxembourg, and the Netherlands were under the rule of the duchy of Burgundy from the end of the fourteenth to the end of the fifteenth centuries, along with Northern France.
