Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 l a s g o w \ £5 OG Abstract The Neues SchloB in Pappenheim commissioned by Carl Theodor Pappenheim is probably one of the finest examples of neo-classical interior design in Germany retaining a large amount of original furniture. Through his commissions he did not only build a house and furnish it, but also erected a monument of the history of his family. By comparing parts of the furnishing of the Neues SchloB with contemporary objects which are partly in the house it is evident that the majority of these are influenced by the Empire style. Although this era is known under the name Biedermeier, its source of style and decoration is clearly Empire. -
The English Claim to Gothic: Contemporary Approaches to an Age-Old Debate (Under the Direction of DR STEFAAN VAN LIEFFERINGE)
ABSTRACT MARY ELIZABETH BLUME The English Claim to Gothic: Contemporary Approaches to an Age-Old Debate (Under the Direction of DR STEFAAN VAN LIEFFERINGE) The Gothic Revival of the nineteenth century in Europe aroused a debate concerning the origin of a style already six centuries old. Besides the underlying quandary of how to define or identify “Gothic” structures, the Victorian revivalists fought vehemently over the national birthright of the style. Although Gothic has been traditionally acknowledged as having French origins, English revivalists insisted on the autonomy of English Gothic as a distinct and independent style of architecture in origin and development. Surprisingly, nearly two centuries later, the debate over Gothic’s nationality persists, though the nationalistic tug-of-war has given way to the more scholarly contest to uncover the style’s authentic origins. Traditionally, scholarship took structural or formal approaches, which struggled to classify structures into rigidly defined periods of formal development. As the Gothic style did not develop in such a cleanly linear fashion, this practice of retrospective labeling took a second place to cultural approaches that consider the Gothic style as a material manifestation of an overarching conscious Gothic cultural movement. Nevertheless, scholars still frequently look to the Isle-de-France when discussing Gothic’s formal and cultural beginnings. Gothic historians have entered a period of reflection upon the field’s historiography, questioning methodological paradigms. This -

Excavations of Aztec Urban Houses at Yautepec, Mexico
- - EXCAVATIONSOF AZTECURBAN HOUSES AT YAUTEPEC, MEXICO Michael E. Smith, CynthiaHeath-Smith, and Lisa Montiel Our recent excavations at the site of Yautepecin the Mexican state of Morelos have uncovered a large set of residential struc- turesfrom an Aztec city. Weexcavated seven houses with associated middens, as well as several middens without architecture. In this paper, we briefly review the excavations, describe each house, and summarizethe nature of construction materials and methods employed. Wecompare the Yautepechouses with other knownAztec houses and make some preliminary inferences on the relationship between house size and wealth at the site. En nuestras excavaciones recientes en el sitio de Yautepecen el estado mexicano de Morelos, encontramosun grupo grande de casas habitacionales en una ciudad azteca. Excavamos siete casas con sus basureros,tanto como otros basurerossin arquitec- tura. En este artfeulo revisamos las excavaciones, decribimos cada casa y discutimos los patrones de materiales y me'todosde construccion. Hacemos comparaciones entre las casas de Yautepecy otras casas aztecas, y presentamosalgunas conclusiones preliminaressobre la relacion entre el tamanode las casas y la riqueza.

69. Il Novecento (15)
Blitz nell’arte figurativa 69. Il Novecento (15) Il linguaggio figurativo trovò maggiore spazio nell’Espressionismo, opponendosi al Dada che tanta parte ebbe, e ha tuttora, nell’arte moderna, soprattutto in versione Surrealista. Però, la figurazione adattata ai nuovi concetti si caricò di una responsabilità che appare superiore a quella dei tardi dadaisti. In particolare modo, gli Espressionisti moderni, attivi fra le due guerre mondiali e maggiormente dopo la Seconda, cercarono punti di riferimento precisi, sconosciuti ai cultori dell’onirismo. Questi ultimi hanno avuto, e hanno ancora, il pregio di presentare varie suggestioni e dunque varie possibilità di aprirsi a un reale privo di finalismo e di determinismo. La relatività delle cose non è un vicolo cieco, bensì la chance di aprire nuovi orizzonti. Come rovescio della medaglia, abbiamo spesso una sorta di resa a questo programma che, infatti, diventa un manierismo destinato all’inefficienza. Il linguaggio figurativo tradizionale è invece costretto a cercare punti di appoggio e, insieme a una specie di possibile chiusura, esso offre visioni che richiedono profonde riflessioni: magari banali anche nella consistenza, talvolta però più incisive e prolifiche di quanto costatabile e ipotizzabile. Si dimostra che la manipolazione della figura, fatta non a caso, fatta cioè non seguendo il mito del gesto, può arricchire la dinamicità dell’alfabeto usato dalle arti figurative dalla notte dei tempi. A questo punto, ispirazione Dada e rigore analitico perseguito con mezzi classici, trovano contatti, pur se solo raramente riescono a condizionarsi a vicenda. La finalità è la conoscenza possibile e probabile. Si tratta di una conoscenza nuova che chiama in causa l’intera personalità umana scaturita da esperienze pratiche, molto avanzate rispetto al passato, e da interrogativi sentimentali eterni che ora reclamano una risposta: talvolta, negli animi più sensibili e attenti, in modo disperato, per quanto mascherato da una sicurezza formale o semplicemente esecutiva. -
Italian Painting in Between the Wars at MAC USP
MODERNIDADE LATINA Os Italianos e os Centros do Modernismo Latino-americano Classicism, Realism, Avant-Garde: Italian Painting In Between The Wars At MAC USP Ana Gonçalves Magalhães This paper is an extended version of that1 presented during the seminar in April 2013 and aims to reevaluate certain points considered fundamental to the research conducted up to the moment on the highly significant collection of Italian painting from the 1920s/40s at MAC USP. First of all, we shall search to contextualize the relations between Italy and Brazil during the modernist period. Secondly, we will reassess the place Italian modern art occupied on the interna- tional scene between the wars and immediately after the World War II —when the collection in question was formed. Lastly, we will reconsider the works assem- bled by São Paulo’s first museum of modern art (which now belong to MAC USP). With this research we have taken up anew a front begun by the museum’s first director, Walter Zanini, who went on to publish the first systematic study on Brazilian art during the 1930s and 40s, in which he sought to draw out this relationship with the Italian artistic milieu. His book, published in 1993, came out at a time when Brazilian art historiography was in the middle of some important studies on modernism in Brazil and its relationship with the Italian artistic milieu, works such as Annateresa Fabris’ 1994 Futurismo Paulista, on how Futurism was received in Brazil, and Tadeu Chiarelli’s first articles on the relationship between the Italian Novecento and the São Paulo painters. -
