Carlucci-Collection-Influences.Pdf FABRICS AND WALLPAPERS BY CARLUCCI The fashion and design world is turned upside down as new influencers, bloggers, vloggers rise up and use their creativity and power to bring us, fresh and inspiring ideas. The fashion industry has always been a keen follower of street fashion. Today big designers and leading fashion houses carefully watch trends on social media and follow influential instragrammers in the same way. With this in mind Carlucci has taken a an inspirational mix of ideas and influences to create a new eclectic and invigorating fabrics and wallpapers collection. The collection is based around three inspirational pillars: Geometric design, Asian influences and Italian fashion design. Design inspiration was found in 16th century Chinoiserie and Japanese art but also in Renaissance Italy and mid century European interior design. Creating a subtle juxtaposition of patterns, colours and textures. Showcasing contemporary design on a backdrop of classical architecture and interiors. East meets West, contemporary meets antique, and colour meets black and white. Black and white designs are the core of the collection as they can be combined perfectly with bold colours and excentric patterns. The Gelato Velvet a high gloss, crushed velvet is the perfect partner to the geometric patterns and the Asian inspired prints.

  • Sprawling Dragons, Squatting Pagods, and Clumsy Mandarines’, the Georgian Group Jounal, Vol
    Philippa Tristram, ‘Sprawling Dragons, Squatting Pagods, and Clumsy Mandarines’, The Georgian Group Jounal, Vol. V, 1995, pp. 1–8 + 127–128 TEXT © THE AUTHORS 1995 ‘Sprawling dragons, squatting pagods, and clumsy mandarines’ Philippa Tristram Sinologists and art historians agree that in the eighteenth century, as in the seventeenth, dis­ tance lent enchantment to the English view of China. They also agree that disillusionment followed hard upon our first direct experience of that country. In pilot studies of China and the West, the crucial encounter cited used to be the Macartney embassy of 1793, when British subjects first travelled through the ‘Great Within’. But in recent years, sinologists - perhaps aware of the many negative references to China prior to the Macartney embassy1 - have set back the advent of disillusion to 1748, when Captain Anson’s Voyage round the world was pub­ lished. This included an account of his bellicose coastal dispute with the Chinese. Although Anson never entered China proper, sinologists now declare that from 1748 the ‘cult of China, whether intellectual or aesthetic, faded swiftly’.2 Art historians, on the other hand, remark that the baroque chinoiserie of the Restoration lost ground in the early eighteenth century, and returned to favour in rococo form only in the reign of George II, ‘rising to its peak of fash­ ion in the 1750s’3 (directly after the publication of the Voyage}, and declining gradually from 1760-90, displaced by Gothic, not the choleric Captain. Even when seeking evidence prior to 1748 for an admiration of all things Chinese, sinolo­ gists and art historians differ, although in complementary respects.

  • The Politics of Chinoiserie
    ONE THE POLITICS OF CHINOISERIE The Disappearance of Chinese Objects “Is there any point to which you would wish to draw my attention?” “To the curious incident of the dog in the night-time.” “The dog did nothing in the night-time.” “That was the curious incident,” remarked Sherlock Holmes. —Arthur Conan Doyle, “Silver Blaze” This chapter explores an absence, or more accurately, an erasure. It is an attempt to understand why Chinese art disappeared from an American art discourse in the 1870s. This remains a critical question still, because despite the reemergence of Chinese objects in the art discourse of the 1890s, that almost twenty-year silence has shaped subsequent discussion concerning American art of that time. The significance of Americans’ reluctance to acknowledge the Chinese origin of import ware during this period cannot be seen fully by examining the isolated Chinese object. Rather, such an investigation requires a more oblique look, one capable of incorporating the surrounding political as well as the aesthetic context. Reconstructing the surrounding positive space gives shape to the missing discourse: seeing Chinese material culture through the mediating histories of the earlier decades of commerce between China and the United States, through American attitudes toward Chinese people, and, finally, through the contrasting American reception of Japanese people and things. The juxtaposition of social/political history with the study of material culture assumes a relationship between politics and art. Connections between 13 © 2012 State University of New York Press, Albany 14 COLLECTING OBJECTS / EXCLUDING PEOPLE the two have been elaborated throughout the modern period at least as early as 1798, when William Blake wrote: “The Foundation of Empire is Art and Science.

  • Tiara Pair of Earrings in Chinoiserie Style
    1 1. Italy or France Tiara Gold and coral, about 1817 Purchased with funds given by Rita Barbour Kern, 1996.27 French Neoclassicism revived the fashion for wearing a tiara, a head ornament based on an ancient Greek diadem. Tiaras of varying degrees of intrinsic value were worn by every woman from the middle classes to royalty. Coral, which was believed to posses protective powers, was often used in jewelry for children and young adults. A portrait painted by Luigi Bernero in 1817 of Maria Teresa of Savoy (1803– 1879) shows the 14-year-old Italian princess wearing a hair ornament almost exactly like this tiara. Most coral in Europe came from the sea around Naples and nearby Torre del Greco. In the 19th century coral jewelry became a fashionable souvenir. This was partly because people could travel more once the Napoleonic wars had ended in 1815, but also due to the growing popularity of Luigi Bernero (Italy, 1775–1848), Maria Teresa di Savoia.

  • The Reception of Chinese and Japanese Porcelain in Europe
    The Reception of Chinese and Japanese Porcelain in Europe Rose Kerr Introduction In the last twenty years, a great deal of new work has been done on the trade in porcelain between China, Japan and Europe. The extent of research activity is revealed by the impressive six-page, double column, and bibliography in the catalogue which accompanied an exhibition at the British Museum in London from July to November, 1990.1 This exhibition, entitled "Porcelain for Palaces", looked at one aspect of the trade, namely the fashion for Japan in Europe in the period 1650-1750. It was only one of many recent projects undertaken in Europe, America and Japan to consider the East-West trade in ceramics during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Indeed, the only country to show scant interest has been China herself.2 Most useful study has been carried out in the West and in Japan, through archaeological an1 archival work: exploratory trips to the Chinese mainland have reveale1 li1.tle of interest.3 This paper will attempt to sketch a few new details upon this expansive background. Its first subject will be a very brief overview of European trade in the East during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries1 the second part will deal with bulk exports or tableware; while the third will examine the types of Chinese and Japanese porcelain used for luxury display in European palaces and great houses. European Trade in the East in the seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries Export porcelains make an attractive item for study because they are beautiful, and because they survive complete or as sherds.

  • Victor Hugo and the Romantic Dream of China
    chapter 6 Victor Hugo and the Romantic Dream of China Petra ten-Doesschate Chu The* tourist in Paris who visits the Maison de Victor Hugo1 may be puzzled and surprised to come across a room with an exuberant chinoiserie decor (figure 6.1). Chinoiserie, of course, is a mode of domestic decoration that we asso- ciate with the eighteenth-century rococo rather than the nineteenth-century Romantic movement, for which Hugo was one of the great standard-bearers. What is even more surprising is that the room was entirely designed, and in part executed, by Hugo. Indeed, for those who know Hugo primarily as the author of historical novels set in France’s distant and recent past (The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Les Misérables), the room may seem an anomaly in style and medium. The chinoiserie room in the Maison de Victor Hugo is not original to the writer’s Paris apartment. Instead, it was designed and in part fabricated by Hugo in 1863 for the house of his mistress Juliette Drouet (1806–1883) on the Channel island of Guernsey, where she had followed him into exile in 1855. After her death, Drouet’s house, Hauteville Fairy, was inherited by her nephew Louis Koch. Through the efforts of Hugo’s friend Paul Meurice, the founder of the Maison de Victor Hugo, and with the help of Koch, who became its first curator, the chinoiserie room was reinstalled in the house museum on the Place des Vosges in 1903.2 If the presence of a chinoiserie room in a house decorated in the early 1860s may strike us as belated, that belatedness becomes comprehensible when we consider chinoiserie as part of the nineteenth-century rococo revival.

Porter / Monstrous Beauty 395 M ONSTROUS BEAUTY: EIGHTEENTH- CENTURY FASHION AND THE AESTHETICS OF THE CHINESE TASTE David L. Porter My topic, broadly speaking, is the aesthetics of exoticism. What are the origins and cultural significance of that seductive allure we identify with aestheti- cized emblems of otherness? How can their uncontested appeal in the modern world be understood from the complementary vantage points of consumer cul- ture and the philosophy of art? There are few richer contexts within which to explore these questions than early eighteenth-century Britain. The period once known best for the stately couplets of Augustan poetry has received attention more recently as the site of the origins of modern aesthetic theory, the birth of the consumer society, and the consolidation of nationalist pride in the cornucopia of exotic commodities procured through a rapidly expanding overseas trade.1 The pervasive cultural motifs reflected in morally fraught debates over standards of taste, changing patterns of consumption, and the social effects of luxury coalesce in the period’s pronounced and deeply ambivalent fascination with that style in the decorative arts known as chinoiserie.2 Chinoiserie, it should be noted at the outset, was a pan-European phe- nomenon, and most existing studies have considered it as such.

  • PS34 Chinoiserie
    PS34 Chinoiserie: Exoticism and the Imagining of the Self and the Other in Architectural Culture 3:00 - 5:10pm Friday, 16th April, 2021 Category Paper Session - Track 9 Session Chair(s) Jean-François Bédard, Lawrence Chua 3:05 - 3:25pm Orientalism as A Hermeneutic Translation: A nascent European Landscape Theory in William Chambers’s Treatises on Chinese Gardens Yuxin Qiu independent scholar, Canada Abstract William Chambers (1723-1796) was an eighteenth-century architect known for his promotion of Orientalism through his two treatises related to Chinese gardening. Previous studies remained as conflict interpretations that make divided judgments on the correctness of Chambers’s texts. It is the result of under-theorized associations between Chambers’s texts and other evidence from either Chinese or Western contexts. The present essay adopts a theoretic model of hermeneutic translation and posits that interpretations of alien cultures culminate in advancements of self-interpretation. Therefore, Chambers’s texts developed Western landscapes through his retelling of Chinese gardens. The essay excavates a nascent Western landscape theory by reading Chambers’s texts against the only comprehensive Chinese garden treatise, The Craft of Gardens (Yuan Ye ), which scholars deem as one of Chambers’s reference. The essay emphasizes Chambers’s new landscape theory's two motifs—painterly ideas in gardening and explorations of emotions. The motifs can be unpacked as the following: Firstly, Chambers’s interpretation of Chinese “painting sensibility” (huayi ), which was a technique to bring forth implied beauties in a garden scenery, led to the articulation of how Western painting compositions could apply as a garden design method.

  • Francois Boucher and His Chinoiserie
    FRANÇOIS BOUCHER AND HIS CHINOISERIE A THESIS IN Art and Art History Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of The requirement for the degree MASTER OF ARTS By AN-NI CHANG B.A. Fu-Jen Catholic University, Taiwan, 2006 Kansas City, Missouri 2010 ©2010 AN-NI CHANG ALL RIGHTS RESERVED FRANÇOIS BOUCHER AND HIS CHINOISERIE An-Ni Chang, Candidate for the Master of Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2010 ABSTRACT In this master’s thesis, I reexamine the Chinoiserie of the French Rococo artist François Boucher (1703-1770). First, I discuss the French concept of China during the first half of the eighteenth century. Second, I analyze how Boucher’s Chinese collection and interests in the Far East informed his art and his Chinoiserie. Finally, I scrutinize Boucher’s Chinoiserie designs, focusing on his tapestry sketches. My argument is that Boucher’s Chinoiserie has been characterized by contemporary art historians as a masquerade of a fête galante, strewn with miscellaneous Chinese pieces. However, through my investigation, I find Boucher’s Chinoiserie laden with many authentic details, rendering a relatively convincing effect, especially in comparison with contemporaneous Chinoiserie works, illustrations in travelogues on China, and imported Chinese porcelain pieces, which made his work distinctive in the period. ii The faculty listed below, appointed by the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, have examined a thesis titled “François Boucher and His Chinoiserie,” presented by An-Ni Chang, candidate for the Master of Arts degree, and certify that in their opinion it is worthy of acceptance.

  • Ornamentation and Orientalization: Social and Racial Implications of the Consumption Of
    Ornamentation and Orientalization: Social and Racial Implications of the Consumption of Chinese Porcelain Sophie Eichelberger Davidson in Cambridge Drs. Matt Neal and Claire Wilkinson Eichelberger 1 Porcelain trade between England and China peaked around 1750, though it started significantly earlier. Chinese goods first appeared in Europe in the 1500s though it was only in 1600 that the East India Company was established to further Britain’s trade with China.1 Because of the massive distance between England and China, acquiring porcelain was a hobby left to the affluent. One such “passionate china collector” was Mary of Orange, who was credited by Daniel Defoe as “furnishing [her] house with chinaware, which increased to a strange degree afterwards.”2 These pieces of art would have stood out from the rest of a collection, as Chinese artists did not rely on the use of a single vanishing point and depicted imagery not found in Europe, such as exotic flora and animals. By the 1750s the Rococo style was in vogue, which was much more akin to Chinese aesthetics, and consumers of porcelain, primarily women, bought heaps of Chinese paraphernalia; because women were associated with the consumption of Chinaware, social commentary often exploited porcelain as a symbol of feminine values. Porcelain, since it was associated with femininity and China, became a synecdoche for all of China—if Chinese art was feminine, then the country, too must be effeminate. Throughout the eighteenth-century tensions rose between China and England which resulted in the Opium War and a shift of power in favor of the British.
