    Issues of Gender Representation in Modern Greek Art the Case of Thaleia Flora-Caravia’S Photographic Images and Self-Portraits

    p Issues of Gender Representation in Modern Greek Art The Case of Thaleia Flora-Caravia’s Photographic Images and Self-Portraits Despoina Tsourgianni ABSTRACT There is a recent trend, mainly in the fi eld of historiography but also in art history, toward the exploration of female autobiographical discourse, whether it concerns writ- ten (autobiographies, correspondence), painted (self-portraits), or photographic data. On the basis of the highly fruitful gender perspective, this article seeks to present and interpret the numerous photographs of the well-known Greek painter Thaleia Flora- Caravia. These photographic recordings, taken almost exclusively from the painter’s unpublished personal archive, are inextricably linked to the artist’s self-portraits. This kind of cross-examination allows the reader to become familiar with the mosaic of roles and identities that constitutes the subjectivity of female artists in Greece in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. KEYWORDS: autobiography, female artist, modern Greek art, photography, self-portrait p Introduction No opening words could be more appropriate to introduce a study on twentieth- century artist representation than the verses of Rainer Maria Rilke on the painter Paula Modersohn-Becker: So free of curiosity your gaze had become, so unpossessive, of such true poverty, it no longer desired even you yourself; it wanted nothing: holy.1 aspasia Volume 13, 2019: 31–64 doi:10.3167/asp.2019.130105 32 DESPOINA TSOURGIANNI It is of key importance to note the way in which this emblematic poet of modernity perceives the ideal depiction of oneself: as one being stripped of any vanity that leads to the beautifi cation of physical characteristics.

    Lucas Samaras Örnekleminde Çağdaş Yunan Sanatında Multimedya Uygulamaların Yeri1

    İNSAN VE TOPLUM BİLİMLERİ ARAŞTIRMALARI DERGİSİ Cilt: 5, Sayı: 6, 2016 Sayfa: 1533-1562 Lucas Samaras Örnekleminde Çağdaş Yunan Sanatında Multimedya Uygulamaların Yeri1 Burak BOYRAZ Arş. Gör., Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, Sanat ve Tasarım Fakültesi, Sanat Bölümü [email protected] Öz Antik Yunanlıların plastik sanatlarda yaptığı çalışmalar ve üretimler, tarihsel süreçte çoğu zaman Batı merkezli klasik plastik sanatlar estetiği için referans olarak kullanılmıştır. Ancak özellikle 20.yy’da (toplumsal olayların etkisiyle güncellenen entelektüel algı ile birlikte) radikal üretimler klasik üslup karşısında daha fazla öne çıkmış, pek çok Batılı sanatçı da gerek kavramsal gerekse nesnel açıdan üretimlerinde bu yönde bir eğilim göstermeye başlamıştır. Çağdaş Yunan sanatçılar da 20.yy'ın son çeyreğiyle iyiden iyiye küreselleşen bu yeni sanat anlayışında Avrupa ve Birleşik Devletler ile uyumlu bir estetik çizgide ilerlemekten geri kalmamış ve disiplinlerarası etkileşimden sıklıkla faydalanan multimedya tabanlı eserler üretmiştir. Metin dahilinde de bahsi geçen bu durum başta Lucas Samaras (1936) olmak üzere çeşitli örneklemlerle incelenmiş ve artan bir ivmeyle kendini güncelleyen Batı sanatının günümüz Yunan sanatçıları üzerindeki etkisi tartışılmıştır. Anahtar Kelimler: Sanat, Plastik Sanatlar, Yunanistan, Çağdaş Yunan Sanatı, Disiplinlerarası Etkileşim, Multimedya, Lucas Samaras. Place of Multimedia Technics in Contemporary Greek Art In Lucas Samaras Sample Abstract Studies and outputs that are executed by Ancient Greeks in plastic arts have been quite often used as a reference for the West-centered plastic arts aesthetics in the historical process. However, especially in the 20th century (together with intellectual perception that is updated by the effect of social events) radical outputs became more prominent against classical style and many Western artists in their outputs started to show tendency in this direction either cognitively or objectively.

Partial gift, Robert Spitzer, by exchange, 1970. © ADAGP, Paris and DACS, London 2019. Photo: Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York #TakisMACBA “Electromagnetism is an infinite, invisible thing, […] I would like to render it visible so as to communicate its existence and make its importance known; I would like to make visible this invisible, colourless, non-sensual, naked world which cannot irritate our eye, taste or sex. Which is simply pure thought.” Takis Meier Building Level 0 PANAYIOTIS VASSILAKIS, KNOWN AS TAKIS, was born in Athens in 1925 and died in August 2019. He was a member of the Resistance during the German occupation of Greece, and he was imprisoned during the Greek Civil War, which broke out in 1946. He was a self-taught artist who began by studying classic ancient sculpture. He went to Paris in 1954 and lived there for long periods of time. It was the city where he also started exploring the sculptural possibilities of electromagnetism. For Takis, the visual qualities of an artwork were not the most important ones: “What I was obsessed with was the concept of energy.” This exhibition is not chronological. Instead, it is arranged by some of the most outstanding aspects of Takis’s work. In the mid-1950s, Takis began experimenting with the use of energy and movement in sculpture. “What I was interested in was the idea of bringing a new, uninterrupted and living force to iron sculpture.

  • New Evidence on the Origin of the Influence of Nietzsche and of the Idea of Immanent

    New Evidence on the Origin of the Influence of Nietzsche and of the Idea of Immanent

    fig. 1 G. de Chirico, Scatola di cerini e sigarette, ca 1904-1906 13 New Evidence on the Origin of the Influence of Nietzsche and of the Idea of Immanent Myth in Giorgio de Chirico: Mavìlis, Palamàs and the Early XX Century Athens Literary Scene Fabio Benzi There have been many attempts at identifying an influence of the Greek milieu on the young Gior- gio de Chirico. From his birth (1888) to his late adolescence, the artist lived in Greece, in Volos and especially Athens, until he moved to Munich in October 1906. So, he spent the first eighteen years of life – undoubtedly a formative moment for any young intellectual – mostly in Athens, where he also completed his first artistic studies in the Academy of Fine Arts of the Polytechnic School. As might be expected, research aimed at contextualizing and furthering the knowledge of pos- sible Hellenic influences on de Chirico’s artistic activity has focused so far on the specific analysis of the local painting scene, although with little or less than significant results. To be sure, we are not aware of any extant early painting from his Greek period, except for a negligible, small still life painted on cardboard, depicting a box of matches with a lit cigarette leaning against it (fig. 1); the verso shows an earlier copy of a detail of a chromolithography by Bel- gian painter Jan van Beers (Lier, 27 March 1852-Fay- aux-Loges, 17 November 1927), which we have iden- tified here (figs. 2, 3).1 If this copy is an example of the nearly photographic unyielding adherence by a young artist who might have not yet attended the academy, the small oil is actually a genre exercise, probably painted while de Chirico was still a student.
