He shows how this motif in domestic furnishing and in urban lighting set the stage for Picasso’s and Einstein’s professional success before 1914. He applies his method to intellectual life in Argentina, using it to address that nation’s focus on an inventory of the natural world until the 1940s, its adoption of non-figurative art and nuclear physics in the middle of the twentieth century, and attention to landscape painting and the wonder of nature at the end of the century.

Em torno da imagem e da memória

  • Categories: Art

"Os diversos ensaios que compõem o presente volume, 'Em torno da imagem e da memória', organizado por Elcio Cornelsen, Elisa Amorim e Gonzalo Leiva Quijada, transitam entre diversas expressões artísticas como a pintura, o cinema, a literatura, o desenho, a colagem e, sobretudo, a fotografia, seja enquanto retrato, registro documental, ou enquanto refotografia, fotopintura, fotografia pós-morte e pictorialismo. Assim, nos textos que procuram estabelecer relações entre imagem e memória na arte contemporânea, o que se observa predominantemente é o caráter híbrido da imagem apresentada pelos artistas, o seu caráter intermediático, que se configura na fronteira entre as diversas lin...
