  • The Relevance of Drawing for Artistic Education at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich and Its Significance in International Contexts
    “You Have to Draw with More Attention, More Dedication” The Relevance of Drawing for Artistic Education at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich and its Significance in International Contexts Johannes Kirschenmann and Caroline Sternberg Throughout the Age of Enlightenment in Europe in the late eighteenth century, radical changes occurred in the understanding of art.1 From then on, the general and esthetic education of the human being have been emphasized and one was convinced of the teachability of art. The reason was twofold: drawing was supposed to shape the taste of future producers, and the arts were ascribed ethical, moral and political functions. In numerous art schools, drawing lessons were now being taken up that not only fine arts benefited from but also craft: over 100 academies were founded in Europe during this period.2 In 1770 in Munich, for instance, Elector Max III. Joseph decided to turn a private artistic circle gathered for life drawing and modeling sessions into an official “drawing school” (» Fig. 1).3 The Munich art academy as a public institution was formed relatively late in the Eu- ropean context. Following the example of the Parisian academy, the first art schools were founded in German countries in the seventeenth century – in Augsburg, Nuremberg, Vienna and Berlin.4 In the eighteenth century a huge number of art schools followed. Several European capitals installed art schools in the first half of the eighteenth century, 1 For the quotation in the title, see footnote 29. 2 Pevsner 1986, p. 144; Heilmann/Nanobashvili/Teutenberg 2015, pp. 5–8; Kemp 1979, pp.

The author delivers convincing evidence that Sztuka, though an amalgamation of secession groups established in Berlin, Munich, and Vienna, formulated no aesthetic program of its own. The association gathered the most prominent Polish artists—coming from all three parts of partitioned Poland, though mainly from Kraków and Warsaw—in the initial phase of its existence.

  • Art in the Service of an Oppressed Nation
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Ławniczkowa,, Agnieszka (Hrsg.): The naked soul : Polish fin-de-siècle paintings from the National Museum, Poznań [Ausstellungskatalog], Raleigh, NC 1993, S. 1-13 Art in the Service of an Oppressed Nation Introduction to the History of Polish Painting in the Nineteenth Century JAN K. OSTROWSKI N 1795, after eight hundred years of independent life, Poland watched help­ I lessly as Russia, Prussia, and Austria partitioned its territory into three occu­ pied zones, marking the end of its existence as an independent state. During the dark century of occupation that followed, Poland possessed neither the institutions nor the leadership to maintain a normal national life. For spiritual leadership, restoration of lost pride, and plans for the future, Poland turned to the only group in firm possession of a discernible national Polish identity — its poets and artists. Although influenced by the major European cultural and artistic movements of the time, Polish nineteenth­century art is distinguished by its preoccupation with the sociopolitical and ideological conditions of Poland's status as an oppressed nation. This national element underlies the entire artistic expression of nineteenth­ century Poland. The Face of Nineteenth-Century Europe The period from 1815 to 1914 is unique in European history. The new European order created at the Congress of Vienna in 1815 resulted in a hundred years of unprecedented peace and stability that lasted until the onset of World War I. This seeming stability, however, was marked by successive changes over the course of the century that gradually led to a very different configuration of the map of Europe from the one established by the Congress of Vienna.

  • Józef Brandt a Środowisko Polskich Artystów W Monachium
    Andrzej Szpakowski Józef Brandt a środowisko polskich artystów w Monachium Rocznik Muzeum Świętokrzyskiego 2, 273-332 1964 ANDRZEJ SZPAKOWSKI JÓZEF BRANDT A ŚRODOWISKO POLSKICH ARTYSTÓW W MONACHIUM Kiedy dwudziestojednoletni Józef Brandt przenosi się w 1862 r. za na­ mową Juliusza Kossaka z paryskiej École des Ponts et Chaussées do Mona­ chium, aby tam podjąć regularne studia malarskie, tradycje podróży zagra­ nicznych wśród artystów polskich są już bardzo bogate, a główne szlaki przetarte i utrwalone zostały jeszcze przez praktykę poprzednich generacji architektów, malarzy i rzeźbiarzy \ Genezy tego ruchu, niezwykle charak­ terystycznego dla polskiej rzeczywistości artystycznej XIX w., dopatrywać się można już w podróżach mecenasów sztuki i artystów z kręgu dworu kró­ lewskiego w XVIII w., w ożywieniu stosunków artystycznych między Polską a innymi krajami europejskimi w dobie Oświecenia czy też w imporcie bu­ dzących podziw dzieł sztuki obcej, głównie malarstwa i rzeźby. Od czasów Stanisława Augusta Poniatowskiego działają w Polsce, głów­ nie w Warszawie, liczni artyści pochodzenia cudzoziemskiego, wywodzący się z krajów o rozwiniętej i wysoko zorganizowanej kulturze artystycznej (głównie z Włoch, Francji, Niemiec i Austrii), których biegła i zręczna sztuka budziła zainteresowanie m. in. systemem kształcenia artystów w obcych środowiskach kulturalnych. Początkowo następują wyjazdy artystów obcego pochodzenia, działających na dworze królewskim (np. Le Brun i Bacciarelli), a następnie i polskich malarzy, stypendystów Stanisława Augusta Ponia­ towskiego (Smuglewicz, Kucharski, Wall i inni, głównie architekci). Celem tych wyjazdów było bądź zdobycie wyższych kwalifikacji artystycznych, bądź zapoznanie się z nowymi ideami i prądami w sztuce bezpośrednio u źró­ deł. Z biegiem czasu zwyczaj ten staje się zjawiskiem powszechnym i cieszy się pełnym poparciem tak mecenasów, jak i krytyki artystycznej.

  • WALKER EVANS in NEW YORK: PHOTOGRAPHY and URBAN CULTURE, 1927–1934 Antonello Frongia, Ph.D
    WALKER EVANS IN NEW YORK: PHOTOGRAPHY AND URBAN CULTURE, 1927–1934 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Antonello Frongia August 2015 © 2015 Antonello Frongia ALL RIGHTS RESERVED WALKER EVANS IN NEW YORK: PHOTOGRAPHY AND URBAN CULTURE, 1927–1934 Antonello Frongia, Ph.D. Cornell University, 2015 This dissertation offers the first systematic study of the photographs taken by Walker Evans in New York City and its vicinity between 1927 and 1934, a formative period that preceded the full consecration of his work in the second half of the 1930s. About 200 urban photographs in the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum and a significant body of negatives in the Metropolitan Museum’s Walker Evans Archive indicate that Evans’s early work was mostly devoted to the theme of the modern me- tropolis. Cross-referencing Evans’s images with contemporary photographs, aerial views, architectural plans, insurance maps, drawings, and verbal descriptions, this study aims to identify the exact subjects, the places, and whenever possible the dates of this previ- ously uncharted body of urban photographs. The resulting catalog of over 300 images suggests the contours of an unfinished project on New York City that Evans developed in the years immediately preceding and following the Wall Street crash of 1929. On a different level, this dissertation addresses the question of Evans’s visual educa- tion in the context of the “transatlantic modernism” of the 1920s and ’30s. In particular, it shows that Evans, despite his early literary ambitions, was fully conversant with the work of visual artists, architects, and critics of the Machine Age.

By August of the following year, she had memorized two roles in English—Eugène Scribe and Ernest Legouvé’s salon melodrama Adrienne Lecouvreur and Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet—and debuted with great success under the Americanized name of Helena Modjeska in San Francisco’s California Theater. San Francisco provided her a sophisticated yet less demanding entrée into the American theatre than did the main stages of New York. Applauded for her sure psychological grasp of her roles, meticu- lous technique, and beauty of person and costume, the foreign-accented Modjeska subsequently reigned for almost thirty years as an American star, acknowledged as America’s greatest Shakespearean actress of her day and heeded as an authoritative spokeswoman for a refined late-nineteenth-century American theatre. Even more remarkable was Modjeska’s simultaneous rebirth in August 1877 as a Polish star overseas. Both Polish and American theatre historians have yet to analyze how this extraordinary actress maintained a bi-national career until her death in 1909. American scholars have presumed that hers was an immigrant success story, a predictable passage from a poor “old world” to the new world’s “promised land.” In coming to the United States, however, the actress had intended no permanent defection, but the launching of a parallel English-language career that she vainly hoped would culminate in regular guest tours on the London stage.

  • The Happy Hour: Polish Painting Around 1900
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Krakowski, Piotr ; Purchla, Jacek (Hrsgg.): Art around 1900 in Central Europe : art centres and provinces ; international conference, 20-24 October 1994, Cracow 1999, S. 55-70 MARIA POPRZECKA The Happy Hour: Polish Painting Around 1900 In recent years the two largest national museums in Poland, the Warsaw and the 1 Cracow divisions, have made new galleries of Polish painting accessible to the public. In both cases the exhibitions which have been arranged - apart from meeting all the usual requirements of a museum's historical form of presentation - clearly suggest a specific interpretation of the history of Polish painting in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Their different approaches and concepts; their different hierarchies, accentuations and distribution of emphasis; a different choice of main characters, local and environmental features; and finally a totally different museum space accorded the two exhibitions - all this makes the two new exhibitions which have lately been unfolded before us two different panoramas of modern Polish painting calling for comparison and confrontation. Alongside all the differences, which it would no doubt be extremely interesting to compare and contrast, both galleries share a common feature: a decided culmination marking the painting around the turn of the century as 2 the definitive high-point. This is the overwhelming impression the visitor to the museum rooms of both exhibitions gets in spite of the diverse selections and configurations achieved. In the Warsaw exposition what has been made paramount is a division into the public and the private space. Thus Malczewski is presented in an open, spacious room typical of gallery display, while Wyspiahski has been locked away and isolated off in his sapphire workshop.
