El término Renacimiento es demasiado amplio -y no poco confuso- a la hora de precisar los límites del fenómeno pictórico. Para unos el Renacimiento es una continuación del arte gótico; para otros es, sin embargo, una reacción contra él; unas veces se habla de Renacimiento con un sentido...

A partir del siglo XVII el grandioso arte del Renacimiento va tomando matices nacionalistas y de cierta exageración que se expresan en cada nación de una manera muy distinta. Es el estilo que se denomina habitualmente barroco y que presenta más diferencias que las que aparecían en el...

A galvanizing critique of the forces vying for our attention—and our personal information—that redefines what we think of as productivity, reconnects us with the environment, and reveals all that we’ve been too distracted to see about ourselves and our world. Nothing is harder to do these...

From the moment an eccentric woman walked into the Knoedler Gallery with a Mark Rothko painting, everyone was fooled. For the next ten years, she ran an $80 million forgery ring, selling or consigning forty expertly crafted counterfeits claimed to be the works of Robert Motherwell, Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and others. Director of the documentary Made You Look Barry Avrich reveals new information, evidence, and inside stories about how a quixotic art dealer, master forger, and two cunning con artists managed to fool billionaire art collectors, journalists, and esteemed art appraisers.

Leer a mano trata de la percepción, algo que no atañe solo a la vista: las obras de arte y los edificios poseen cualidades táctiles, que influyen, hasta de forma inconsciente, en las sensaciones que nos producen. También es un «elogio de la lentitud» aplicado a las artes y a la arquitectura, una defensa del ritmo pausado que se precisa tanto para crear algo como para contemplarlo y comprenderlo. Las artes y los oficios conllevan experiencias que nos conforman como humanos. Crear y producir no son lo mismo.

Nach der Eroberung Mailands gelingt Reinald von Dassel, dem mächtigen Erzbischof von Köln, ein Coup: Er spürt die Gebeine der Heiligen Drei Könige auf und überzeugt Kaiser Barbarossa, dass er diese in sein Erzbistum mitnehmen darf. Jahre später ist Köln überlaufen von Pilgern, die sich von den Reliquien Heilung versprechen. Noch liegen die Gebeine in einer unscheinbaren Kiste. Doch längst ist den Mächtigen der herausragende Ruf des Verduner Goldschmieds Nicolaus zu Ohren gekommen.

In studying the acting process, what I have found is that acting styles change, just like cinema. What were considered compelling, powerful acting choices in the 1950s and 60s, might be considered “over the top” film acting today. Since the art of film is connected to culture, it shifts and changes with societal tastes. Now, let’s focus on your desire to be an actor in an industry that’s always changing. So, you want to be an actor. That’s great! You want to be on television or in film – awesome!

"Rebel Artists" ist ein Buch über 15 Frauen aus aller Welt, die sich als Künstlerinnen Respekt verschafften. Sie mussten gegen Vorurteile und für ihre Rechte kämpfen. Aber sie ließen sich durch nichts und niemanden von ihrer Kunst abbringen. Frida Kahlo kennen alle als starke, mutige Malerin. Doch auch viele weitere Frauen verdienen Beachtung: Emily Kame Kngwarreye, die erst mit 80 Jahren anfing, unermüdlich zu malen, um dann mit über 3000 Bildern zur berühmtesten Aborigines-Künstlerin zu werden.

When Europeans first arrived in North America, between five and eight million Indigenous people were already living there. But how did they come to be here? What were their agricultural, spiritual, and hunting practices? How did their societies evolve, and what challenges do they face today? Eminent historians Theda Perdue and Michael Green begin by describing how nomadic bands of hunter-gatherers followed the bison and woolly mammoth over the Bering land mass between Asia and what is now Alaska between 25,000 and 15,000 years ago, settling throughout North America.
