Visiter Le Louvre catalogue 2014 Musée du Louvre éditions Fidèles à leur mission de service public, les éditions du musée du Louvre participent depuis 1988 à l’une des vocations principales du musée, la diffusion de la connaissance de ses collections, patrimoine universel qui couvre huit mille ans d’histoire. Leur catalogue exhaustif compte aujourd’hui près de huit cents titres, auxquels s’ajoute depuis 2007 Grande Galerie, le Journal du Louvre, magazine d’actualité du musée. Les publications très diversifiées du musée du Louvre – guides, albums, ouvrages scientifiques, ouvrages pour la jeunesse, publications pédagogiques, catalogues d’exposition, etc. – s’adressent à des publics variés : visiteurs français ou étrangers, érudits, jeunes, enseignants, étudiants, artistes, amateurs d’art… Cette diversité se traduit également par le grand nombre de partenaires coéditeurs puisque, par principe, les éditions du musée du Louvre ont choisi de s’associer à d’autres éditeurs. Les prix annoncés dans ce catalogue s’entendent pour les versions en français. _SOMMAIRE VISITER LE LOUVRE PUBLICATIONS 5 NOUVEAUTÉS SCIENTIFIQUES 6 DÉCOUVRIR LE LOUVRE, GUIDES 131 NOUVEAUTÉS 12 L’HISTOIRE DU PALAIS 132 THÉORIE DE L’HISTOIRE DE L’ART, MUSÉOLOGIE 18 ORIENT ANCIEN 140 ANTIQUITÉS ORIENTALES 19 ÉGYPTE ANCIENNE 144 ANTIQUITÉS ÉGYPTIENNES 22 ANTIQUITÉS GRECQUES, ÉTRUSQUES 149 RÉCOLEMENT ET ROMAINES 150 ANTIQUITÉS GRECQUES, ÉTRUSQUES ET ROMAINES 26 MOYEN ÂGE 153 SCULPTURES 28 PEINTURES 155 HISTOIRE DES COLLECTIONS 32 SCULPTURES 156 OBJETS D’ART 33 ISLAM / OriENT ROMAin ET BYZANTin 158 PEINTURES 34 THÈMES TRANSVERSAUX 160 ARTS GRAPHIQUES, DESSINS 40 GRANDE GALERIE, 164 ARTISTES lE JOUrnAL DU LOUVRE 170 COURANTS, STYLES, THÈMES, ORNEMENTS, MATÉRIAUX EXPOSITIONS 43 NOUVEAUTÉS PUBLICATIONS 44 ARTISTES PÉDAGOGIQUES 56 COURANTS, STYLES, TECHNIQUES 179 L’HISTOIRE DES ARTS À L’ÉCOLE 65 SITES, PAYS 181 MATERNELLE ET CLASSES PRIMAIRES 73 HISTOIRE DES COLLECTIONS 184 CLASSES SECONDAIRES ET SUPÉRIEURES 76 MUSÉE EUgènE-DELAcrOix 186 PUBLICATIONS POUR NON-VOYANTS 78 ARTS GRAPHIQUES, DESSINS ET MALVOYANTS ART CONTEMPORAIN JEUNESSE 90 ART CONTEMPORAIN 189 MES PREMIERS GUIDES 100 DES AUTEURS AU LOUVRE 192 L’HISTOIRE AU LOUVRE 194 SE PROMENER DANS LES SALLES 198 JEUX MONOGRAPHIES 200 imAgiERS 105 NOUVEAUTÉS 201 CONTES ET AUTRES HISTOIRES 106 ANTIQUITÉS ORIENTALES 107 ANTIQUITÉS ÉGYPTIENNES 110 AnTiqUITÉS grEcqUES, ÉTRUSQUES BANDES DESSINÉES ET ROMAinES 208 BANDES DESSINÉES 113 SCULPTURES 116 OBJETS D’ART 118 PEINTURES INDEX 127 ARTS GRAPHIQUES, DESSINS 214 COLLECTIONS 128 ISLAM 220 TITRES 228 AUTEURS 244 OUVRAGES EN LANGUES ÉTRANGÈRES 246 COMMENT TROUVER NOS LIVRES 3 _NOUVEAUTÉS VISITER LE LOUVRE Le Louvre Couverture non contractuelle non Couverture De Louis XIV à Marie-Antoinette.

  • Marketing at the Museum
    FRANCE Marketing at the Museum BY ZOÉ COSSON To celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of the Louvre Pyramid by (recently deceased) archi- tect Ieoh Ming Pei, the museum joined forces with Airbnb for a kind of sweepstake. To- gether they offer a winning couple the chance to drink an aperitif alongside the Mona Lisa and dine before the Venus de Milo before curling up in bed in one of the museum rooms. It’s all part of a new era in experiential marketing. It is nothing new, or rare, to privatize the galleries of the Musée du Louvre, hundreds of movies are shot there each year. However skepticism, even criticism of the Louvre is moun- ting, for instance by other international museums, in a collective questioning of conservation ethics, notably when it comes to the spiritual protection of artworks. Indeed, conservation implies protecting pieces from physical alterations but also from moral ones. In this light, it is valid to analyze the relationships nurtured by public cultural institutions with corporations or private interests. After granting permission for the controversial video shoot Apeshit by Beyoncé and JAY-Z, where the singer can be seen dancing in front of masterpieces, the Louvre also opened its doors to the French televised game show Questions pour un champion in August 2018. The show attracted 1,5 million French viewers, whereas the Apeshit video had over 160 million views. For the biggest museum in the world, it’s an easy calculation: use media to increase visibility, update its image and diversify clientele. Essentially, the former residence of French kings seems ready today to do anything that will draw numbers, abandoning the arts in support of the tourism and cultural industries.

Archaic Period ca. 625-480 B.C.E. --- Greeks defeat Persians 480-479 BCE --- Early Classical Period ca. 480-450 B.C.E. High Classical Period ca. 450-400 B.C.E.

GEOMETRIC & ARCHAIC GREECE Ancient Greek Art Mesopotamian = Worship Egyptian = Afterlife Greek = Humanism GEOMETRIC & ARCHAIC GREECE The Geometric Period The beginning of Greek art is found in painted pottery and small scale sculpture. Artists established different categories of shapes of ceramic vessels- most important was the amphora - two- handled vase used to carry wine and oil Around 800 BC, pottery began to move away from purely non-objective designs - ornamental figures. Dipylon Vase was a grave monument - bottom has holes through which liquid offerings filtered down to the dead below- done in remembrance rather than to appease the soul of the dead. Geometric Krater from the Dyplon Cemetery Athens, Greece, ca. 740 BC GEOMETRIC & ARCHAIC GREECE The Geometric Period The vase functions as a grave marker depicting the funeral procession of an obviously well respected individual. The magnitude of his funeral procession speaks to the wealth and position of the deceased family in the community. Contains no reference to an afterlife The nature of the ornamentation of these early works has led art historians to designate these as GEOMETRIC.
