What does it mean today to talk about spirituality? Where does spirituality fit into a world dominated by a digital and technological culture and an ultra-deterministic mentality? Is there still a spiritual dimension underpinning the demands of art? In order to reflect on these and other questions MAXXI, the National Museum of XXI Century Arts, is bringing together a number of leading figures from the contemporary art scene in the major group show on the spiritual matter of art, strongly supported by the President of the Fondazione MAXXI Giovanna Melandri and curated by Bartolomeo Pietromarchi (from 17 October 2019 to 8 March 2020). Main partner Enel, which for the period of the exhibition is supporting the initiative Enel Tuesdays with a special ticket price reduction every Tuesday. Sponsor Inwit. on the spiritual matter of art is a project that investigates the issue of the spiritual through the lens of contemporary art and, at the same time, that of the ancient history of Rome. In a layout offering diverse possible paths, the exhibition features the works of 19 artists, leading names on the international scene from very different backgrounds and cultures.

  • Ancient Cities: the Archaeology of Urban Life in the Ancient Near East, Egypt, Greece and Rome, Second Edition
    ART 2311: Art and Architecture in Rome Fall 2016 A Days (Mondays and Wednesdays), 11:30am-1:00pm Aula Magna (plus site visits on some Wednesday afternoons) COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course gives students the unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the development of the city of Rome through a study of its art, architecture and urban transformation. It focuses on the major artistic and architectural movements occurring primarily in Italy (as well as their Greek antecedents) from roughly the 8th century BCE to the 20th century CE. In the study of each period we will strive to understand Rome’s artistic and architectural works within the contexts in which they were created. Our study of art, architecture and urban planning will therefore take into account the historical, political, social, religious and cultural contexts of the patrons, artists and viewers. Particular emphasis will be placed on ancient Greece and Rome, early Christianity, the Renaissance and the Baroque periods. We will also explore the reuse, borrowing and revival of ancient artistic and architectural themes in later periods. Instructor: Office Hours: Dr. Elizabeth Robinson Monday 4:00-6:00pm, or by appointment. [email protected] If you cannot make it to these office hours, Office: 560 please let me know and we can work out Office Phone: extension 560 another time to meet. REQUIRED TEXTS: (G) Gates, C.F.

  • 2 FEBBRAIO 2015 Palazzo Dell'istruzione
    2 FEBBRAIO 2015 Palazzo dell’istruzione The building which hosts the head offices of the Italian Ministry of Education was designed by the architect Cesare Bazzani, well known in those days for having built also Palazzo delle Belle Arti (Palace of Fine Arts), which now hosts the National Gallery of Modern Art. The construction of the Palace, started in 1912, was completed only in 1928. The building recalls the style and the eclectic taste of the beginning of the Twentieth Century. Its monumental architectural forms, inspired by Classicism, are softened by the baroque lines which liven up the facade, enriched in the front as well as in the internal spaces by an important series of ornaments and symbolic decorations with book-shaped capitals, grotesque caryatids, battering- ram heads, flower garlands. From the monumental Hall which introduces to the Palace, you can access the Courtyard of Honour, currently used for commemorative and prize-giving ceremonies at the end of the school year. On the sides of the Hall, two Honour Staircases, made of white marble, lead to the Minister’s Offices and to the Ministry representative rooms (Ministers’ Hall, Minister’s and Head of Cabinet’s Offices) decorated by Antonino Calcagnadoro, Paolo Paschetto and Rodolfo Villani in the year 1928. The paintings, made with the cold encaustic and the casein glue poster paint, two of the oldest and most traditional techniques of Italian Art, depict some allegorical figures: Literature, Science, Wisdom, History, Genius and Art. The series, painted by Calcagnodoro for the decoration of the Ministers’ Hall, is particularly valuable. It is a sequence which illustrates Education and 1 Knowledge in the various stages of Italian history with the depiction of some of its most important representatives: Dante Alighieri, San Francesco and Santa Chiara, Leonardo da Vinci, Raffaello Sanzio, Benvenuto Cellini, Michelangelo Merisi.

  • Saggio Brothers
    Cammy Brothers Reconstruction as Design: Giuliano da Sangallo and the “palazo di mecenate” on the Quirinal Hill this paper I will survey information regarding both the condition and conception of the mon- ument in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. When Giuliano saw the temple, the only fragments left standing were a portion of the façade and parts of the massive stair structure. His seven drawings of the monument were the first attempts to reconstruct the entire building, as well as the most complex and large scale reconstructions that he ever executed. The sec- ond part of this essay will compare Giuliano’s drawings with those of Peruzzi and Palladio, with the aim of demonstrating, contrary to the theory that drawings after the antique became increasingly accurate over time, that Giuliano in fact took fewer liberties in his reconstruction than did Palladio. Aside from providing some insight into Giuliano’s working method, I hope through this comparison to suggest that fif- teenth- and sixteenth-century drawings of antiquities cannot appropriately be judged according to one standard, because each archi- 1.

Giuliano’s 1593, showing fragments of the temple by comparison to those of his nephew, Antonio drawings suggest that he approached recon- as they appeared in the Renaissance. da Sangallo il Giovane. Although his drawings struction not with the attitude we would expect are more beautiful, they are on the whole less of a present day archaeologist, but rather with accurate, or at least less consistent in their mode that of a designer, keen to understand the ruins of representation and their use of measure- in terms that were meaningful for his own work.

    THE PANTHEON INSTITUTE ARCH 499B: Architectural/Urban Analysis The Urban Roots of Design - A Roman Perspective Romolo Martemucci & David Sabatello Instructors : Romolo Martemucci - <[email protected]> David Sabatello - [email protected] Credits: 3 Prerequisite: Architecture or Landscape architecture majors or permission of instructor Semester: Spring 2017 By architecture, I mean not only the visible image of the city and the sum of its different architectures, but architecture as construction, the construction of the city over time. Aldo Rossi The Architecture of the City (1966) As an architect, I try to be guided not by habit but by a conscious sense of the past---by precedent, thoughtfully considered. Robert Venturi Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture (1966) 1 Course Description The course is based on the theoretical assumption that in an age in which architecture is at the forefront of the contemporary cultural debate, the knowledge and awareness of the historical heritage of contemporary design, is an essential tool to avoid futile stylistic exercises. The architect more than any other intellectual should be sensitive to cultural tradition in order to propose solutions which may very well be radical, but never ignorant of the cultural framework in which he or she is operating. The course proposes an investigation of the historical roots of the "Modern Language of Architecture". The concept of "Modern Language of Architecture" stems from the idea that Modernity is an attitude and not merely a historical phase (i.e.: The Modern Movement). Therefore Modern are all those architectures which have challenged established values and have proposed new and more significant interpretations of their times.
