    It makes me really happy finding this page on Twitter! Seeing all those doodles and sketches from classical writers like Jorge Luis Borges, Franz Kafka, and Vladimir Nabokov not only makes the experience of reading so much precious but brings one closer to the authors. Ian

PengZackBumm - Malerei von Sabie Tress in der [galerie.bruehl] - Pressemitteilung - ope... - 0 views

  •  
    Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, liebe Freundinnen und Freunde der Galerie, sehnen auch Sie den Frühling herbei? Dann wird die farbenkräftige Ausstellung in der [galerie.bruehl] auch Sie in hren Bann ziehen. Herzlichen laden wir Sie ein zur Ausstellung PengZackBumm mit Malerei der Kölner Künstlerin Sabine Tress am Sonntag, 20. Februar 2011, 15:00 Uhr, in die [galerie.bruehl], Uhlstraße 2, 50321 Brühl (in der Fußgängerzone, direkt am Rathaus) Die Ausstellung wird bis 1. April 2011 zu folgenden Öffnungszeiten zu sehen sein: montags bis freitags 10:00 bis 13:00 Uhr sowie 14:00 bis 18:00 Uhr, samstags 11:00 bis 14:00 Uhr. Während der Karnevalstage 3. bis 7. März 2011 ist die Galerie geschlossen. Zur Ausstellung: Sabine Tress macht Bilder. Ihr Werkprozess ist spontan, spannungsgeladen, eruptiv, ebenso überlegt wie intuitiv - „PengZackBumm" eben. Ihre Bildtafeln bilden nichts (oder nur höchst selten etwas) ab. Vielmehr stellen sie die Malerei selbst in den Mittelpunkt der Betrachtung. Themen sind das Wachsen und Werden, das Schichten, Überlagern, Sich-Ergänzen und Verdrängen. Bereits vorhandene Farbflächen überdeckt Sabine Tress bis zur Unkenntlichkeit, andere verschleiert sie so verführerisch und hauchzart, dass man um so neugieriger wird auf das immer noch offenkundige Darunter. Stets lässt Sabine Tress den Betrachter an ihren Expeditionen ins Reich der malerischen Möglichkeiten teilhaben. Es geht um Gewicht, Sinnlichkeit und Variantenreichtum von Form, Farbe und Fläche. Was ist es, das die Aufmerksamkeit des Betrachters auf sich zieht? Sind es die massigen Farbkrusten, die so auffällig mäandernden Rinnsale oder doch eher die Zuckerwatte-leichten Spraydosen-Spots, die so sehr an ihre Ursprünge in der Street-Art erinnern? Ist es gar das wohlüberlegte Zusammenspiel all dieser Kräfte? Auch wenn es nur selten Abbild- oder Symbolhaftes in den Arbeiten der Künstlerin gibt, Assoziationen lösen die Werke von Sab

Romanticism - 3 views

  • second half of the 18th century in Western Europe
  • revolt against aristocratic social and political norms of the Age of Enlightenment and a reaction against the scientific rationalization of nature
  • confronting the sublimity of untamed nature and its picturesque qualities, both new aesthetic categories
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • escape the confines of population growth, urban sprawl and industrialism, and it also attempted to embrace the exotic, unfamiliar and distant
  • ideologies and events of the French Revolution laid the background
  • in the second half of the nineteenth century, "Realism"
  • Romanticism elevated the achievements of what it perceived as misunderstood heroic individuals and artists that altered society. It also legitimized the individual imagination as a critical authority which permitted freedom from classical notions of form in art
  • Despite this general usage of the term, a precise characterization and specific definition of Romanticism has been the subject of debate in the fields of intellectual history and literary history throughout the twentieth century, without any great measure of consensus emerging
  • t is the period of 1815 to 1848 which must be regarded as the true age of Romanticism in music - the age of the last compositions of Beethoven (d. 1827) and Schubert (d. 1828), of the works of Schumann (d. 1856) and Chopin (d.1849), of the early struggles of Berlioz and Richard Wagner, of the great virtuosi such as Paganini (d. 1840), and the young Liszt and Thalberg
  • At that time Germany was a multitude of small separate states, and Goethe's works would have a seminal influence in developing a unifying sense of nationalism
  • The poet and painter William Blake is the most extreme example of the Romantic sensibility in Britain, epitomised by his claim “I must create a system or be enslaved by another man's.”
  • In predominantly Roman Catholic countries Romanticism was less pronounced than in Germany and Britain, and tended to develop later, after the rise of Napoleon. François-René de Chateaubriand is often called the "Father of French Romanticism". In France, the movement is associated with the nineteenth century, particularly in the paintings of Théodore Géricault and Eugène Delacroix, the plays, poems and novels of Victor Hugo (such as "Les Misérables" and "Ninety-Three"), and the novels of Stendhal.
  • But by the 1880s, psychological and social realism was competing with romanticism in the novel.
  • One of Romanticism's key ideas and most enduring legacies is the assertion of nationalism, which became a central theme of Romantic art and political philosophy
