This is the National Gallery, which contains Britain's best-known collection of pictures. The collection was begun in 1824, with the purchase of thirty-eight pictures that included Hogarth's satirical "Marriage a la Mode" series, and Titian's "Venus and Adonis". The National Gallery is rich in paintings by Italian masters, such as Raphael, Correggio, and Veronese, and it contains pictures representative of all European schools of art such as works by Rembrandt, Rubens, Van Dyck, Murillo, El Greco, and nineteenth century French masters.

  • Dynamism, Creativeness, and Evolutionary Progress in the Work of Alexander Archipenko DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillm
    Dynamism, Creativeness, and Evolutionary Progress in the work of Alexander Archipenko DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Robert D. Calhoun Graduate Program in History of Art The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Kris Paulsen, Advisor Myroslava Mudrak, Co-Advisor Lisa Florman Copyrighted by Robert D. Calhoun 2016 Abstract Guy Habasque, writing for L’Oeil in 1961, recognized Alexander Archipenko (1887-1964) as the leading revolutionary and guide for sculptors of the twentieth-century. At the same time, he acknowledges that history has failed to do the artist justice, forgetting and neglecting him even before his death in 1964. What Habasque wrote fifty- five years ago is doubly true today when the holdings of Archipenko’s work in public museums have been largely relegated to storage, along with many other significant works of the twentieth century, under the increasing pressure to create gallery space for contemporary works of art. To find space in permanent displays, modernist works must compete for significance, the power of which has apparently been lost in the few discussions that exist surrounding Archipenko’s work. This project draws attention to the neglected importance of Archipenko’s work. What is significant about this work is that it forms part of a counter history of early-twentieth century art as an alternative to the materialist-formalist history, which has held the dominant, discursive position. Archipenko’s biocentric, philosophical position presents an aesthetic that represents science and technology as organic, evolutionary extensions of a universal dynamism.

  • Experiments in Sound and Electronic Music in Koenig Books Isbn 978-3-86560-706-5 Early 20Th Century Russia · Andrey Smirnov
    SOUND IN Z Russia, 1917 — a time of complex political upheaval that resulted in the demise of the Russian monarchy and seemingly offered great prospects for a new dawn of art and science. Inspired by revolutionary ideas, artists and enthusiasts developed innumerable musical and audio inventions, instruments and ideas often long ahead of their time – a culture that was to be SOUND IN Z cut off in its prime as it collided with the totalitarian state of the 1930s. Smirnov’s account of the period offers an engaging introduction to some of the key figures and their work, including Arseny Avraamov’s open-air performance of 1922 featuring the Caspian flotilla, artillery guns, hydroplanes and all the town’s factory sirens; Solomon Nikritin’s Projection Theatre; Alexei Gastev, the polymath who coined the term ‘bio-mechanics’; pioneering film maker Dziga Vertov, director of the Laboratory of Hearing and the Symphony of Noises; and Vladimir Popov, ANDREY SMIRNO the pioneer of Noise and inventor of Sound Machines. Shedding new light on better-known figures such as Leon Theremin (inventor of the world’s first electronic musical instrument, the Theremin), the publication also investigates the work of a number of pioneers of electronic sound tracks using ‘graphical sound’ techniques, such as Mikhail Tsekhanovsky, Nikolai Voinov, Evgeny Sholpo and Boris Yankovsky. From V eavesdropping on pianists to the 23-string electric guitar, microtonal music to the story of the man imprisoned for pentatonic research, Noise Orchestras to Machine Worshippers, Sound in Z documents an extraordinary and largely forgotten chapter in the history of music and audio technology.

  • Regatul Romaniei
    RegatulRomaniei file:///C:/Programele%20Mele/IstorieRomania1/RegatulRomaniei/Regat... Regatul României Visul unirii tuturor românilor sub un singur steag a frământat mințile conducătorilor încă din cele mai vechi timpuri, dar alianțele militare și interesele de ordin comercial nu au fost în favoarea simplificării relațiilor dintre diferitele formațiuni statale. În vechime, țările românești au negociat protecția celor două mari imperii ale romanilor, apoi începând cu secolul al XIII-lea au întreținut legături de prietenie și ajutor mutual cu Polonia și Lituania. Din secolul al XV-lea, ca state vasale Imperiului Otoman dar sub protecția directă a Hanatului Crimeei, s-a pus problema formării unui eyalat turcesc comun. Proiectul a fost însă refuzat cu dârzenie, ca urmare a divergențelor de ordin religios. Ca o soluție de compromis, sultanii au permis independența religioasă a celor trei principate, în schimbul dependenței economice. Situația de criză a intervenit o dată cu revoluția și apoi războiul de independență purtat de greci și sârbi. Sub aripa ocrotitoare a Bisericii Ortodoxe Răsăritene, creștinii din toate țările Balcanice au ridicat la început glasul, apoi armele, cerând vehement ieșirea din situația de compromis religios. Ca rezultat, boierii și dragomanii greci au fost maziliți, iar mănăstirile filiale ale celor de la Muntele Athos au fost secularizate. În urma grecilor au rămas nenumăratele lor rude născute din alianțe cu casele boierești autohtone, practic aproape toată crema boierimii. Pentru a umple vidul administrativ rămas s-a hotărât instituirea unei locotenențe domnești, ajutată de o Adunare Constituantă a fruntașilor celor două țări. În ambele principate, toate sufragiile au fost întrunite în anul 1859 de Colonelul Alexandru Ioan Cuza, cu funcția de Ministru de Război, fost deputat de Galați și fost șef al Miliției de la Dunărea de Jos.

This is the opinion of gallerist, Leonid Shishkin, as he explains in an interview on page 10. Soviet Art has indeed become the theme of this issue, with a painting by Yuri Pimenov ‘Ball at Olympia’s House’ on the cover. In this month’s ‘Russian Reflections’ section, Tobie Mathews offers a chilling insight into literary censorship under Stalin, a time when Osip Mandelshtam (before he died in a labour camp) quipped: “Poetry is taken so seriously in Russia that people are even shot for it.” We all known that Alaska was Russian, but do we know how, and under what circumstances, the Russians sold off these extensive territories? In this issue we publish the first of a two-part series by Yury Samoilov on the sale of Alaska.

(2020). Searching for Plastic Expressiveness in Alexander Osmerkin's Paintings: From "Cezannism" to "Silent Realism". Journal of History Culture and Art Research, 9(1), 209-224. doi:http://dx.doi.org/10.7596/taksad.v9i1.2354 Searching for Plastic Expressiveness in Alexander Osmerkin's Paintings: From "Cezannism" to "Silent Realism" Elena Kirichenko1, Olha Punhina2, Yuliia Malezhyk3 Abstract The article discusses the specifics of understanding the plastic expressiveness of painting by A. Osmerkin, which manifested itself differently at different stages of the artist’s creative biography, determined by the sociocultural context of the 1920s – 1940s. The study revealed the aesthetic positions of the artist at an early and mature stage of creativity, reflecting priorities in the search for the plastic expressiveness of the painting. The figurative and stylistic features of his works created in different decades are considered; a comprehensive analysis of his aesthetic views and their reflection in the author’s picture of the world has been performed. In addition, the authors introduce into the scientific circulation the artist’s works from the museums of the Kropyvnytsky city, which were not previously considered in existing publications on the work of A.

The results of the study led to the conclusion that the artist paid great attention to the plasticity of color, with the help of which he built form and space, without taking the color composition from the task of the image.
