Item Number: 107511 Title: Landschaft als Weltsicht : Kunst vom 17. Jahrhundert bis zur Gegenwart : Gemälde, Fotografien, Videoinstallationen und Arbeiten auf Papier Author: Berswordt-Wallrabe, Silke von ; Volker Rattemeyer (eds) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9783868320336 Description: Köln: Wienand, 2010. 29cm., pbk., 360pp., 356 color, 79 b&w illus. Exhibition held at Stiftung Situation Kunst, Bochum and Kunsthalle, Kiel. Summary: Ever since landscape painting succeeded in establishing itself as an autonomous genre in 17th-century Holland, countless artists have devoted themselves to its practice. More than 130 of them are represented in this richly illustrated volume. The selected works trace the most important lines of development in the way the landscape has been viewed over the course of the centuries. In addition, the scholarly articles make it clear that artistic depiction of landscape is suited, like almost no other medium, to reflect the view of the world and the environment as held both by the individual and by particular groups in society: in this sense, the landscape view is also always a world view. We regret to inform you that this title is no longer available. P.O. Box 3904, Kingston, New York 12402 US Phone: 845-331-8519 Fax: 845-331-0852 Email: michael@artbooks.com |
