  • The Interest in the Art of the Nazarenes in Slovakia
    The Interest in the Art of the Nazarenes in Slovakia Marta Herucová Abstract HERUCOVÁ, Marta: The Interest in the Art of the Nazarenes in Slovakia. The study is focused on the unknown artworks of Nazarenes preserved in Slovakia. It follows the ways by which came here the paintings, drawings and graphics by Johann Friedrich Overbeck and artists around him. Those were Johann Evangelist Scheffer von Leonhardshoff, Ludwig Schnorr von Carolsfeld, Carl von Blaas and Ferenc Szoldatics (Kupelwieser's and Führich's student). From Slovakia joined the Nazarenes the sculptor and draftsman Joseph Daniel Böhm from Spišské Vlachy; however his interests were wider. In Slovak collections are to be find graphics from the engravers of Düsseldorf School and from Josef Kovatsch reproducing the Nazarene art. The interest in this art was shown by Sigismund Bubics, Bishop of Košice, mentioned Joseph Daniel Böhm, Alojz Rigele, sculptor from Bratislava as well as Willibald Leo Lütgendorff-Leinburg, German art historian and painter, who had roots in Bratislava. Keywords: Nazarenes, Johann Friedrich Overbeck, Slovak art collections, Academies of Art, 19th century n Slovakia, part of former Kingdom of Hungary, there are some excellent but “forgotten” artworks I made by Nazarenes. These artworks, their contexts and related stories, have been omitted in the last European recapitulations of the history and art of Nazarenes. I focused my research on the origins of paintings and drawings and some engravings by first Nazarenes, not on the copies or artworks influenced by them. I followed the way by which they came into Slovak art collections in order to see the extent of interest in such art.

ISBN 978-80-970304-5-2 It is an obvious fact that the goldsmiths’ works originated in various circumstances. The texts of the four case studies published in the book are an attempt to identify the different alternatives. Domestic works on one side and imports on the other are not vertically placed in hierarchical positions, but rather contextualized in the specific frameworks in which they originated or circulated after their completion. They represented inter-cultural contacts or active artistic communication of a specific micro-region in both inward and outward directions. Although the four chapters of the book are understood more as case studies and cannot be regarded as synthesizing works, their titles already ask questions, which apply more comprehensively to the interpretation of early modern art in the central Slovak mining towns. The book will be shortly published also in English by the Peter Lang Publishing House. ars 2016 Ročník / Volume 49 Číslo / Number 2 Obsah / Contents ŠTÚDIE / ARTICLES Zuzana BARTOŠOVÁ Resonances of Cubism in Slovak Fine Art (93) Kubizmus a jeho rezonancie vo výtvarnom umení Slovenska Marta HERUCOVÁ Žánrové grafiky zo zbierky rodu Ostrolúckych (113) Genre Engravings from the Collection of Ostrolúcky Family Bibiana POMFYOVÁ Stredoveké sakristie – k problému funkcií a architektonického riešenia (príklad Slovenska) (132) Sacristies in the Middle Ages – Functions and Architectural Design (Case of Slovakia) Miroslava CIPOVOVÁ – Peter MEGYEŠI Chlieb ako spásonosné závažie.
