Recenzii
Prize: Winner of the ACE/Mercers' International Book Award 2009 Winner of the College Art Association Publication Grant, 2007 'Outstanding ... It sets one building - the Great Church at Haarlem - in an exceptionally broad context - as built form, as culturally symbolic artefact, and as a vehicle for didactic decoration ... Her story begins in the Roman Catholic era, examines the motives behind iconoclasm, its destructive force as well as its generative power, and then details the appropriation of the church by the local Reformed Community. All this is done with exceptional precision, imaginative insight and scholarly depth.' Graham Howes, ACE trustee 'The long-term impact of iconoclasm on the development of art in the Reformed Netherlands is one of the most urgent and least understood problems in our field. Mia Mochizuki's book gives us nuanced new answers, deftly combining concrete historical description and analysis with a sophisticated understanding of the theological, political and aesthetic issues at hand. Dutch Protestants cared about art. Mochizuki tells us why and how.'

Descriere
Debunking the myth of the stark white Protestant church interior, this innovative book draws on art history, reformation history and theology to explain the impact of iconoclasm on the cultural topography of the Dutch Golden Age. Lavishly illustrated with color photographs of many objects never before published, this study identifies a previously overlooked aspect of iconoclasm: while acknowledging its destructive force, Mochizuki also discloses its generative power and the remarkable creativity it unleashed.
