Caravaggio: Reflections and Refractions: Visual Culture in Early Modernity

Editat de DavidM. Stone
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 sep 2016
As this collection of essays makes clear, the paths to grasping the complexity of Caravaggio’s art are multiple and variable. Art historians from the UK and North America offer new or recently updated interpretations of the works of seventeenth-century Italian painter Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio and of his many followers known as the Caravaggisti. The volume deals with all the major aspects of Caravaggio’s paintings: technique, creative process, religious context, innovations in pictorial genre and narrative, market strategies, biography, patronage, reception, and new hermeneutical trends. The concluding section tackles the essential question of Caravaggio’s legacy and the production of his followers-not only in terms of style but from some highly innovative strategies: concettismo; art marketing and the price of pictures; self-fashioning and biography; and the concept of emulation.

Recenzii

'... a strong and engaged spectrum of essays by leading scholars that reflects the range and depth of Caravaggio scholarship today. It constitutes a milestone contribution to our understanding of this artist and his complex historical reception, as well as the range of approaches currently at work in the study of early modern European art.' Genevieve Warwick, University of Edinburgh, UK and Editor, Art History
'This is a distinguished collection of original essays by well-established scholars of Italian Baroque art and Caravaggio in particular. It is remarkable for the diversity of questions asked and methodological resources deployed in answering them. Such is the sureness of scholarship that underpins each essay, however, that there is little to no contradiction among them. Taken as a whole, the volume of essays contributes to a fuller understanding of Caravaggio that is greater than the sum of its excellent parts.' Charles Dempsey, Professor of Italian Renaissance and Baroque Art Emeritus, The Johns Hopkins University, USA
'The ancestor of this volume is unmistakably Genevieve Warwick's Caravaggio: Realism, Rebellion, Reception ... The inclusion of several 'stars' of the discipline, some of them featuring in both collections, the ambitious framework and the guaranteed future importance make Reflections and Refractions an obvious successor.' Oxford Art Journal
'Matters of technique, attributions, and patronage are dutifully explored ... empathy, sound, touch and Caravaggio's critical fortunes receive enlivening treatment.' Art Newspaper
'This collection of 14 essays by recognized experts presents thoughtful and authoritative discussion of crucial aspects of Caravaggio‘s character, his oeuvre, and his milieu. ... these essays will shape future Caravaggio studies. Recommended.' Choice
'... riveting in its insights, breathtaking in its original methodologies, and standing out as an unsurpassably comprehensive f
