Arte Botanica nel Terzo Millennio / Botanical Art into the Third Millennium

Lucia Tongiorgi Tomasi
4.9/5 (11311 ratings)
Description:This is the catalogue for an exhibition at Museo della Grafica, Palazzo Lanfranchi, Pisa, Italy 20 April through 15 July 2013. The book is in both Italian and English. Il percorso espositivo, che presenta opere di molti dei più brillanti e raffinati artisti contemporanei, si apre con i riferimenti alla lezione di Rory McEwen, Margaret Mee e Margaret Stones, che alla metà del ’900 seppero indicare la modernità della pittura botanica in termini di sensibilità artistica e descrizione scientifica. Seguono poi oltre 150 opere che testimoniano l’ampia gamma descrittiva e interpretativa con cui gli artisti riescono a restituire la complessità del mondo naturale: opere provenienti dalla collezione londinese di Shirley Sherwood, la più importante e prestigiosa raccolta di autori contemporanei, oltre ad un nucleo di opere di artisti brasiliani e un’ampia panoramica di artisti italiani.Il percorso si conclude con alcuni protagonisti della scena artistica contemporanea che hanno rivolto al tema una significativa attenzione. Dalle attente meditazioni sulle tecniche e sui maestri dei secoli passati, alle coraggiose sperimentazioni grafiche e materiche che uniscono dipinti e tempere a fotografie, collage, video e istallazioni, sarà così proposto un viaggio di suggestioni ed emozioni in uno splendido giardino di arte e di scienza.(http://www.edizioniets.com/Scheda.asp...)The visual representation of a plant, a leaf, or a flower petal, in which the aesthetic quality of the gesture merges with an adherence to scientific and naturalistic fact, remains even today the preferred vehicle for the scientist wishing to create a permanent record of his studies. The artist is able to capture the unique morphological and systematic characteristics of a plant with a concision and immediacy that cannot be matched by any mechanical or digital technology.As is amply testified to by the collections of great international scientific institutions (The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew; The Royal Horticultural Society, London; The New York Botanical Garden, Bronx; and the Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro) and prestigious private collections (the Shirley Sherwood Collection, London, UK; the Oak Spring Garden Library of Rachel Lambert Mellon, Upperville, Virginia, USA; and the Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA), graphic or pictorial exercises in the portrayal of nature spring from and have perennially drawn strength from their close dialogue with science, leading to truly stunning results in terms of stylistic range and expressive quality.The aim of "Botanical Art into the Third Millennium" is to provide an overview of the latest and most original work being produced in this genre, in a geographic dimension without limits and reflecting the unique diversity and specificity of local environments.(https://www.asba-art.org/exhibitions/...)We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
