Virtual Conference June 25Th and 26Th 2021
Virtual conference June 25th and 26th 2021 Organizers: Denis Ribouillault (Université de Montréal), Itay Sapir (Université du Québec à Montréal), Eva Struhal (Université Laval, Québec / Universität Graz). While the term “science” is most often associated with the systematic study of the physical or natural world, up to the nineteenth century the term “scientia” referred to any branch of systematic knowledge, including the arts and other fields currently associated with the humanities. In the 1950s, the British philosopher C. P. Snow famously coined the term “two cultures” as a major cultural force of the nineteenth and twentieth century in order to describe the by then fundamental divide between science and the humanities. Since then, historians and anthropologists of science have raised the question of how this increasingly hierarchical disciplinary divide came about. How exactly did natural philosophy (the term for “science” until the 19th century), physics, and mathematics turn into “the paradigmatic science,” exerting a dominant cultural impact on other disciplines. The conference organized online in June 2021 seeks to flesh out the period before such binary (and hierarchical) divisions were established, in particular from a linguistic, rhetorical and poetic point of view. In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, art and natural philosophy were not rival disciplines but different forms of expressing a profound curiosity about nature. The papers will be looking closely at shared structures that connected both domains during the early modern period, with a special focus on language as the nexus between conceptual ideas and the sensible world. In examining the dialogue in terms of sociocultural, epistemological, and particularly discursive patterns, “art” and “science” will be associated on a deeper level than that of concrete connections and practical activities. -

Quando il secolo sestodecimo eclinava all'occaso non vi era oggimai in natura o genere di bellezza, o aspetto di essa, che non fosse stato da qualche professor grande vagheggiato e ritratto; talché il dipintore, voless'egli o non volesse, mentre era imitatore della natura, dovea esserlo a un tempo de' miglior maestri, e il trovar nuovi stili dovea essere un temperare in questo o in quell'altro modo gli antichi. Adunque la sola via della imitazione era aperta per distinguersi all'umano ingegno; non sembrando poter disegnar figure più maestrevolmente di un Bonarruoti o di un Vinci, o di aggraziarle meglio di Raffaello, o di colorirle più al vivo di Tiziano, o di muo[2]verle più spiritosamente che il Tintoretto, o di ornarle più riccamente che Paolo, o di presentarle all'occhio in qualunque distanza e prospetto con più arte, con più rotondità, con più incantatrice forza di quel che già facesse il Coreggio. Questa via della imitazione batteva allora ogni Scuola; ma veramente con poco metodo. -

Northern Italianate Landscape Painters
Northern Italianate Landscape Painters ... Northern artists had long spent time in Italy – hence the work of Pieter de Kempeneer (1503-1580) (Room 9) and Frans Floris (1516-1570) in the sixteenth century, who drew their inspiration from the Antique and contemporary masters. Landscape painters Paul Bril (1554-1626) and Adam Elsheimer (1574/78-1610/20) (Room 10), settled there from the end of the sixteenth century and were to influence the Italian school profoundly. However, from around 1620, the Northern Diaspora gave rise to a novel way of representing the towns and countryside of Italy. Cornelis van Poelenburgh (1595/96-1667) went to Rome in 1617 and around 1623 was among the founder members of the Bentvueghels “birds of a feather”, an association of mutual support for Northern artists, goldsmiths and “art lovers” – not only Flemish and Dutch, but Room also Germans and even a few French. He painted shepherds in the ruins and plains of Latium where the harsh light creates strong shadows. Around 1625, the Dutch painter Pieter van Berchem Laer (1599-1642 ?), nicknamed Il Bamboccio, invented the bambocciate, a different take on Caravaggesque scenes of realism showing moments of contemporary Italian low-life in ... the open air and bringing a modern feel to the subject matter. The bambocciate met with considerable success. Flemish and From these two trends – pastoral landscapes suffused with light, and racy at times Dutch Painting vulgar scenes of daily life – was to develop a whole chapter in European painting, dominated by Northern artists but also marked by Italians such as Michelangelo Cerquozzi (1602-1660) and French painters like Sébastien Bourdon (1616-1671). -

Gli studi sulle raccolte romane di disegni e stampe a Roma nel secolo XVIII si sono moltiplicati negli ultimi anni all'interno di un più generale interesse verso questo specifico settore del collezionismo in Italia e in Europa. L'enciclopedico lavoro del collezionista e studioso olandese Frits Luigt1 (1884-1970) ha gettato le basi della storia dei grandi collezionisti, raccogliendo una messe utilissima di dati e notizie relative alla identificazione, allestimento e dispersione delle collezioni di grafica. Dopo il fondamentale studio di F. Haskell2 la ricerca si è indirizzata verso specifiche raccolte dal Rinascimento all'età moderna, spesso in occasione di mostre legate a singole figure di collezionisti, e in tempi più recenti l'attenzione si è spostata anche su problemi relativi alla consistenza e all'allestimento delle collezioni, considerati elementi indicativi della cultura e degli orientamenti del gusto di un collezionista3. -

Rembrandt: the Denial of Peter
http://www.amatterofmind.us/ PIERRE BEAUDRY’S GALACTIC PARKING LOT REMBRANDT: THE DENIAL OF PETER How an artistic composition reveals the essence of an axiomatic moment of truth By Pierre Beaudry, 9/23/16 Figure 1 Rembrandt (1606-1669), The Denial of Peter, (1660) Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. Page 1 of 14 http://www.amatterofmind.us/ PIERRE BEAUDRY’S GALACTIC PARKING LOT INTRODUCTION: A PRAYER ON CANVAS All four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John have reported on the prediction that Jesus made during the Last Supper, stating that Peter would disown him three times before the night was over, and all four mentioned the event of that denial in one form or another. If ever there was a religious subject that was made popular for painters in the Netherlands during the first half of the seventeenth century, it was the denial of Peter. More than twenty European artists of that period, most of them were Dutch, chose to depict the famous biblical scene, but none of them touched on the subject in the profound axiomatic manner that Rembrandt did. Rembrandt chose to go against the public opinion view of Peter’s denial and addressed the fundamental issue of the axiomatic change that takes place in the mind of an individual at the moment when he is confronted with the truth of having to risk his own life for the benefit of another. This report has three sections: 1. THE STORY OF THE NIGHT WHEN PETER’S LIFE WAS CHANGED 2. THE TURBULENT SENSUAL NOISE BEHIND THE DIFFERENT POPULAR PAINTINGS OF PETER’S DENIAL 3. -
The History of Painting in Italy, Vol. V
The History Of Painting In Italy, Vol. V By Luigi Antonio Lanzi HISTORY OF PAINTING IN UPPER ITALY. BOOK III. BOLOGNESE SCHOOL. During the progress of the present work, it has been observed that the fame of the art, in common with that of letters and of arms, has been transferred from place to place; and that wherever it fixed its seat, its influence tended to the perfection of some branch of painting, which by preceding artists had been less studied, or less understood. Towards the close of the sixteenth century, indeed, there seemed not to be left in nature, any kind of beauty, in its outward forms or aspect, that had not been admired and represented by some great master; insomuch that the artist, however ambitious, was compelled, as an imitator of nature, to become, likewise, an imitator of the best masters; while the discovery of new styles depended upon a more or less skilful combination of the old. Thus the sole career that remained open for the display of human genius was that of imitation; as it appeared impossible to design figures more masterly than those of Bonarruoti or Da Vinci, to express them with more grace than Raffaello, with more animated colours than those of Titian, with more lively motions than those of Tintoretto, or to give them a richer drapery and ornaments than Paul Veronese; to present them to the eye at every degree of distance, and in perspective, with more art, more fulness, and more enchanting power than fell to the genius of Coreggio. Accordingly the path of imitation was at that time pursued by every school, though with very little method. -
