  • Multo in Parvo: Joris Hoefnagel's Illuminations
    MULTO IN PARVO: JORIS HOEFNAGEL’S ILLUMINATIONS AND THE GATHERED PRACTICES OF CENTRAL EUROPEAN COURT CULTURE by JOAN BOYCHUK B.A., McGill University, 2004 M.A., McGill University, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Art History and Theory) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) August 2016 © Joan Boychuk, 2016 Abstract This dissertation examines the works of illumination produced by the itinerant Flemish miniator, Joris Hoefnagel (1542-1600), during his tenure as court artist to the Wittelsbachs and Habsburgs in the last two decades of the sixteenth century. Comprising illuminated manuscripts as well as independent miniatures, the works at the center of this study provide novel insight into Hoefnagel’s practice as an illuminator and also into the status and function of illumination at the Central European courts of Munich, Ambras, and Prague. Not simply extending a traditional interest in the medium at these sites, Hoefnagel’s works on parchment transformed illumination into a new form bringing together a range of practices and discourses associated with the courts, with humanism, and with emerging disciplines dedicated to the production of new knowledge. Artistically inventive and conceptually productive, Hoefnagel’s compositions helped shaped an identity for the artist as a hieroglyphicus—an initiate into and maker of a privileged language of representation. Unlike other medieval and early modern art, the illuminated page could bring together, on one surface, different media (text and image), genres (heraldry, portraiture, nature studies, biblical narrative, and ornament, among others), and modes of representation (realism, illusionism, symbolism, and abstraction).

While most people today have never heard anything about this city or its history, this small town was once one of the most important cities in the Low Countries. It was also hub for the production of watercolor paintings. During the religious turmoil in the second half of the 16th century a large portion of artists fled the city to find a better life in other European cities. One of these places was Delft, were a group of 24 Mechelen artists settled. In this paper we look at the lives of these artists to better understand the knowledge circulation between the north and the south at the turn of the 17th century.

Thus, DIVA continues to build on a concept that is also the starting point of the DIVA collection presentation, A Brilliant Story. Internationally acclaimed art dealer and interior designer Axel Vervoordt is the first to present his personal Room of Wonder at DIVA. AXEL VERVOORDT ON HIS ROOM OF WONDER “A Room of Wonder is there to create ‘wonder’, to inspire, to discover things that surprise and fascinate. I myself always try to look at art as a child, without prejudice or foreknowledge, and I like to be surprised by what my senses intuitively present to me. Only then do I want to acquire knowledge about the object, the origin, the history, the artist and the circumstances in which it was made. Such deeper knowledge often leads to even greater wonder and fascination. As a collector, I’ve always looked for the dialogue between objects that reinforces their intrinsic power. In a traditional cabinet of wonders, all sorts of artefacts, exceptional naturalia and innovative scientific instruments were brought together to impress and to be studied.
