White, William J. "Playing House in a World of Night: Discursive Trajectories of Masculinity in a Tabletop Role-playing Game." International Journal of Role-Playing, no. 2 (March 27, 2011): 18–31. http://dx.doi.org/10.33063/ijrp.vi2.192.
Full textAbstract:
This study uses excerpts from the transcript of a tabletop role-playing game (RPG) session to examine how male players enact ideas about masculinity. The game is a non-traditional, small-press “indie” game called Ganakagok designed by the author; in the game, the characters are men and women from a quasi-Inuit culture living on an island of ice in a world lit only by starlight. As the game begins, the imminent arrival of the Sun is announced, and game-play is about how the people of this culture deal with the approaching dawn. In one such game, the players of three male characters went through interesting character arcs in their interactions with each other and with female players; those arcs seemed to depict movement among different models of masculine identity. One implication of the study is that RPGs afford a fruitful site for reflecting upon ideas in discourse, and so it is possible for role-playing to serve as an aesthetic as well as an expressive medium—as art as well as play, in other words.

L’archéologue danois Jørgen Meldgaard (1927-2007) était un cinéaste passionné. Les archéologues d’aujourd’hui pourraient s’inspirer de sa passion pour ce médium qu’est le film. Il a produit trois documentaires incontournables au cours de sa carrière, chacun d’eux illustrant une tendance importante de la représentation scientifique de l’Autre durant la seconde partie du XXe siècle. Cet article analyse ses films en portant une attention particulière à la manière dont Meldgaard est passé d’une représentation des Inuit en tant qu’objets à une représentation en tant que sujets. Il effectue également une comparaison de ses films avec ses deux ouvrages sur l’art inuit et les replace dans le contexte des développements méthodologiques contemporains en archéologie et en anthropologie. Il conclut en recommandant aux futurs archéologues de suivre l’exemple de Meldgaard en s’engageant dans le partage de la connaissance, par l’intermédiaire des médias audiovisuels, avec les gens concernés par les fouilles archéologiques, plutôt que de laisser entièrement la représentation de la connaissance archéologique aux professionnels des médias.

Full textAbstract:
Canadian publishing was inhibited from the beginning by Canada’s colonial origins and dependence on Great Britain and the USA. Few art books were published until quite recently; the relatively small, scattered population, the flooding of the market with British, American and (in Quebec) French books, and limited (at best) or non-existent sales outside Canada continue to be constraining factors. The necessity to include both English and French texts adds to the cost of book production in Canada. The publication of art books, and of exhibition catalogues, depends on the availability of government grants. Publications on the art of the North American Indian and Inuit peoples are an exception, attracting widespread interest and leading in some instances to co-publishing initiatives. In addition to the larger publishing houses, a number of small presses produce occasional art books, thanks to grants and in a few cases with the added benefit of sales abroad achieved through international networking. A government programme of support for Canadian publishing, launched in 1986, is continuing.

This essay is an attempt to present the most important points of the current discussion about the cultural remains of colonialism in Scandinavia by analyzing the representation of indigenous art in museums. I would like to focus on the reasons why Saami and Inuit art was usually excluded from the traditional art history narrative and placed almost exclusively in collections of ethnographic or historical museums. On the examples of the strategies applied by three museums: the National Museum of Denmark in Copenhagen, Nordic Museum in Stockholm, and the National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design in Oslo, the following issues are considered: what determines the selection of indigenous artists and their works, how they are exhibited, what place indigenous art holds in the national canon of art today, and how these museum strategies perpetuate, or not, stereotypes of Kalaallit Nunaat and Sápmi. For the sake of this paper, based on ethnohistory, historical anthropology and anthropology of art in a Nordic context, the terms ‘art’ and ‘artist’ go beyond the traditional definitions used in art history.

Abstract Miniprint is one of the print size formats in graphic arts that is not yet very popular in Indonesia. Miniprint format prints in small sizes both matrix and paper. Printing in small sizes is fun. Small format requires patience and technical skill in visualizing the artist's ideas and ideas. Considering that miniprints have many features apart from a small format, they can also be carried everywhere and can also be used as an aesthetic element or room decorator and have good selling power, encouraging the author to hold a workshop or training on making miniprints in the Makmoer Art Project Sukoharjo community. The selection of the training venue in the Makmoer Art Project Community is because this community is indeed engaged in the arts and humanity. A community that always provides free workshops to people in need. Community service methods, problem identification, training and mentoring, evaluation. The works produced in this training after completion are then framed in a minimalist way. The miniprints produced are small-sized works of graphic art, using a matrix of plywood. These works are used as aesthetic elements of the house or as room decoration. Works for the aesthetic element of the house are currently popular among the public so that they have a selling value and can be used as an alternative in entrepreneurship.

Full textAbstract:
This examines the special use of art works as a store of value in Germany during the Third Reich era. Some Jews were able to buy their freedom, as the fascists closed in. Then as the Third Reich fell, some escaping fascists used art works to secure freedom outside of Germany. One of the characteristics of money is a store of value. When confidence in a currency is present, the more conventional form of money takes precedence. A respected, economic form of currency and coin has all three elements of money: medium of exchange, store of value and unit of account. This last trait is especially absent when using various art works as money, as there is no agreed upon unit of account with such different art. Furthermore, art works could not qualify as a medium of exchange, since only a very small amount of the population was involved in this way of dealing in art during the stressed times for the Third Reich.

Full textAbstract:
This article proposes that we add to the small number of Renaissance works on the art of creating or using facetiae an almost unknown De arte iocandi by an almost unknown Mattheus Delius, who died young. The work is a poem in four books, in Ovidian elegiac couplets, obviously inspired by the De arte bibendi of Vincentius Obsopoeus; both works have been assumed to be paradoxical encomia but arein fact seriousalbeit playful compendia of rules. Delius is interested not in the rhetorical use of jokes as weapons, but in something very close to Erasmus's festivitas. The preface by Melanchthon almost qualifies as an independent art of joking, and together they add valuable information to our knowledge of Reformation wit.

ART WORKS Projects (AWP) was born out of desperation. A photo of a small boy who had been murdered in a genocidal attack against civilians in Darfur by a Sudanese government intent upon their eradication led to the formation first of the DARFUR/DARFUR exhibition of large-scale exterior projections and eventually to AWP. The founders, by and large architects, filmmakers, editors, photographers, lawyers, and designers, weren’t naive enough to believe that art can always end genocide (or any other grave human rights abuse), but they knew it impacted them and so they theorized that the same could happen to policymakers, voters, and ultimately, perpetrators.

Full textAbstract:
Sculpture art, as an important carrier of spiritual civilization, also portrays a prosperous scene as an industry with urban and cultural development. Three-dimensional technology offers a new platform for sculpture creation, allowing for the digitization of sculpture works via electronic information technology, and the display of sculpture works in front of people via displays, facilitating the exchange and dissemination of information and promoting the growth and progress of the entire sculpture creation industry. We plan to use digital enhancement technology to conduct small-scale creation experiments on traditional sculpture works, discuss the method of GA (Genetic Algorithm) in image restoration processing, investigate the method of image segmentation processing based on the genetic algorithm, and propose the method of image segmentation processing based on the fuzzy membership surface genetic algorithm, in order to verify and solve the creation difficulties of traditional sculpture works.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of the article. Research and analysis of marketing technology algorithms by means of market segmentation in fine arts marketing. The methodology of the study is to apply comparative, empirical, and theoretical methods. This methodological approach allows us to analyze the processes of segmentation of the fine arts market with the subsequent use of research results in the marketing processes of promoting works of art from artist to consumer. The scientific novelty consists in expanding the notions about the research of marketing processes in the art market. The article establishes that in the second half of the XX century - at the beginning of the XXI century in the art market very actively and effectively were used and are used marketing models and technologies. But professional scientific activity, scientific researches in the field of art market marketing have been conducted and are conducted insufficiently. Therefore, it can be stated that artistic creativity is the area of meticulous attention of large, small, and medium-sized businesses, which, in turn, created the art market, but still has not attracted specialists in this field of sociological, economic, marketing sciences. Scientific, research work on the positioning of works of art aims to determine the main market qualities of works of art, their recognizability for further promotion of works in the markets using advertising and other marketing mechanisms. The main purpose of the article: analysis of the specifics of the realization of classical marketing technologies (marketing researches, positioning of works of fine art) in the marketing of fine arts. Conclusions. The analysis of the problems of using traditional marketing technologies in art marketing carried out in the article gives grounds to state that such technologies are used in the art market, but they differ significantly from other market areas. Besides, due regard should be paid to the effectiveness of marketing technologies in the art market. Note that such traditional marketing technology as marketing researches is insufficiently used in the marketing of fine arts. Technology deserves special attention in art marketing. The technology of positioning works of art and artists deserves special attention in art marketing. The positioning of works of art in the implementation of the marketing approach allows the market to implement such strategies to meet the demand for works of art as: negative demand, lack of demand, latent demand, declining demand, irregular demand, full demand, excessive demand, unwanted demand.

Full textAbstract:
The subject of the study is the works of contemporary St. Petersburg artists of different generations and creative trends, as well as the forms and features of their communication with each other and with the general as well as professional public. The trends of artistic communication in the city are determined by the activities of such institutions as art and non-art museums, art galleries and exhibition centers, which are a classic form of presentation of contemporary art; alternative venues such as creative spaces and art clusters. The field of attention also includes the attraction of St. Petersburg authors to the organization of small artistic associations, mainly art groups, for example, "Unconquered", "North-7", "Parasites", etc. In addition to works of art, theoretical works and reflections by researchers of contemporary art in St. Petersburg and the spaces of its public presentation are involved. The methodological basis is the analysis of the works of St. Petersburg masters of the beginning of the XXI century in the context of the development of urban institutions of artistic communication. The research is based on theoretical works devoted to the problem of artistic communication and trends in the current art process. Comparative-interpretative and typological methods are used to compare the works of artists and forms of artistic communication. The problem of artistic communication in the field of fine art in St. Petersburg is becoming the subject of a separate study. This area of city life is currently developing quite dynamically, as new art associations, curatorial practices and alternative classical platforms for the presentation of the work of authors belonging to different generations and art movements are emerging. Traditional museums and galleries, as well as creative spaces, art clusters and other often non-core institutions, such as libraries and cafes, are involved in this process. Against this background, the features of St. Petersburg artistic communication crystallize, which is characterized by a desire to organize communities, to fuse realistic traditions and current trends, to escapism and symbolism, as well as an interest in oriental themes and stylistics.

Full textAbstract:
Old Russian art and Old Russian philosophy have many similar typological features. Therefore, the consideration of ancient Russian art, from a philosophical point of view, has a certain methodological significance. Old Russian texts can be divided into three groups according to the degree of saturation of their philosophical and aesthetic content. The first group consists of the most serious books, including: “The source of knowledge” by John of Damascus, “Dioptra” by Philip the Hermit, “The logic of Aviasaph” and a number of others. The second group, the most numerous, includes the works of Metropolitan Hilarion, Maxim the Greek, Cyril of Turov, some Apocrypha and other works. The third group includes monuments of business writing. The works of the second group require careful textual study. In addition to monuments of writing, it is important to consider non-verbal sources: monuments of painting, architecture, and small plastic art. In the whole, all of them provide a general yet clear overview of the Old Russian art.

The moving image has evolved into a very common medium used in both narrative and non-narrative way, exhibited in a film festival or art exhibition. Narrative film nowadays distributed digitally and can be exhibited in both the big screen and small screen (such as mobile phone, laptop screen, mini projector) without possibly losing any storytelling value. While non-narrative film/video mostly exhibited in a special treatment to enrich the main message. The small screen was commonly used to present this medium in an art exhibition. Art manager has a responsibility to curate and presents the intermedia works in order to reach either aesthetic value or financial value. There is a myth that intermedia art isn't a profitable collectible item, so when an artist uses the medium it was considered an artwork made for fun.
In this research, the writer will analyze small screen exhibition on one of the largest contemporary art exhibition in Yogyakarta, ARTJOG. The research method used was qualitative with literature, archive, and interview approach. Hopefully, this research will be a good discourse between moving image and fine art.

Full textAbstract:
The second half of the 18th century was a time of active changes in the perception of art, rethinking many concepts and phenomena. One of them was the pictorial sketch, which transformed from a preparatory stadium work into an independent, complete piece of art. Many art theorists and critics, as well as painters themselves had contributed to this rethinking. Many young artists, bored of historical painting and indifferent to all the academic principles, were searching for new media of expressiveness, using the sketch-like pictorial manner to give their works a new dynamism and an impression of “easy production”. The article is dedicated to J.-H. Fragonard (1732—1806), an artist in whose works the “sketchiness” became a conscious artistic method used in small-format pieces, in large-scale canvases, and even in panels. The use of such a technique in grand scale works is considered to be an extreme unconventionality, which, however, was not appreciated by Fragonard’s contemporaries and even by scholars of the next two centuries. Fragonard’s series of ‘Fantasy Portraits’ attracted enough investigators’ attention, but his series ‘Progress of Love’ has only recently begun to be recognized by researchers as an unusual and bold for that time artistic experience. Based on the analysis of the artist’s selected works, the author builds her original research, designed to highlight Fragonard’s special role in the evolution of art on the way from the Modern Period to Contemporary History. The relevance of the present article is caused by too little examination of this topic: minimal in Russia and relatively small in France. Besides consultation with research literature, this required the author to constantly directly refer to the 18th-century sources, such as treatises by art connoisseurs and scholars, art criticism, and catalogues of exhibitions arranged by the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture or the Académie de Saint-Luc.

The ricepaperplant pith is also known as Tetrapanax papyrine, Akebia, or tall gastrodia fruit, a kind of shrub or small tree of the Araliaceous. It is native to south China and Taiwan Prov., the raw material of rice paper. Extract its central tissue from the stem to make pith slices which could be made as the watercolor painting paper. It arose in Guangzhou in the 19th century, and the themes are mainly focused on reflecting the social life scenes as well as various characters in late Qing Dynasty, such as officials, soldiers, juggling, weaving, playing instrument, etc. The works are lively, vivid, and bright in colors. As the result of using western painting principles and reflecting Chinese local customs, rice paper watercolor paintings were admired by Westerners at that time. However, as pith paper is fragile, the size of painting was usually small and difficult to conserve, there are few works handed down in China. In recent years, the rice paper watercolor painting has attracted more and more concern, which is of great significance to the study of the development of early Western paintings in China.

The paper examines the creative segment of digital art, which has been carried out by professional graphic artists in the independent Republic of Moldova, including finished artworks produced in big and small print runs, and also unique graphic works. Sketches and technical drawings of any kind are excluded from the study. Important data is provided about different images (chiesel works, book illustrations, caricatures, postage stamps, ex-librises), which were rendered digitally both in full and in part. Also, concise information is offered on the professionals practicing the respective type of digital art over the years. There is also contoured the process of nationwide spread of the digital images and the specifity of the digital creative tool. The author also examines the professional attitude towards digital art in the Republic of Moldova in terms of the relationship between mass production, traditional handmade art and digital execution technique. The reasons and conditions for the dissemination of digital images in national art are specified. The dynamics of opinions on the role of the computer in the creation and modification of graphic works at different stages of the evolution of digital and traditional technology in the Republic of Moldova is traced.

This paper contains an appreciative exegesis of a single sentence extracted from a speech that John Dewey delivered to an audience of teachers in 1906. The sentence was selected for analysis because of the extraordinarily concise manner in which it tacitly connects to a wide variety of Deweyan doctrines, particularly those having to do with Dewey's vision of human flourishing. The overall goal of the analysis is simply to bring the sentence to the attention of a wider audience. By displaying the hidden richness of this small string of words, delivered almost nonchalantly, one suspects, and on such a relatively inauspicious occasion, my hope is to prevent a tiny gem from remaining lost and forgotten within the vastness of Dewey's published works.

Not long before the change of Government in Britain in 1997, the then Heritage Secretary, Virginia Bottomley, made a speech in which she praised British contemporary art, describing it as the most exciting and innovatory in the world. Unexciting as it seemed, her observation was profoundly innovatory, indeed in its small way historic. To my knowledge no British Cabinet Minister, still less a Conservative, has ever given an official seal of approval to what is conventionally regarded as avant-garde art. The Labour Government has echoed its predecessor's praise at a higher volume, as if determined to out-do it. The sanctification by the state of works of contemporary art has now become part of the discourse of officialdom.

Recently, NFT, an irreplaceable token called convergence art that combines digital technology and art, is attracting attention in the field of design and art. The purpose of this study is to analyze NFT technology-based digital works that are rapidly growing along with rapid demand for IT technology through issues of the times, the development of cryptocurrency blockchain technology, and the trend change in the art market through text mining. As a method of research, text mining is conducted by setting the last year as a collection period from March 2021 to February 2022, when NFT grew the most rapidly using TextStom of Big Data tools. As a result, first, it was confirmed that works, sales, metaverse, and media, which are major controversial keywords in the NFT field reviewed in previous studies, are the main keywords that provide the foundation of potential means in planning NFT technology-based digital works. Second, NFT's "coin", "sales", "game", "metaverse", and "work" keywords showed that NFT art was provided in the form of a metaverse, or was considered to be the value of content creation in the form of a game or brand character. Third, it can be seen that it is considered as a new platform closely related to NFT digital work creators, such as guaranteeing intellectual property rights in virtual exhibitions related to copyrights in the nature of blockchain and securing accessibility to digital works. Fourth, although it was a small proportion in word sentiment analysis, it was found that NFT could cause financial losses in terms of negativity, and art or profits as investment products had a bubble in market prices, so it was necessary to be cautious. Starting with the analysis map proposed in this study, it is hoped to be helpful as current status data that can be referred to when constructing digital works based on NFT technology.

Full textAbstract:
In creating works of ‘Art Makeup’ called ‘the pinnacle of makeup’ specific and systemic learning is required for inexperienced beginners or students to acquire basic knowledge or quality of art makeup. For this reason, we analyzed characteristics of water-based paints in order to examine what changes in colors there were when these paints mixed with water were applied to the skin and became completely dry in a certain time. We also looked into their consistency-how long they lasted against drying speed, stimulation or contact. The findings are as follows. First, in the water-based paints we analyzed, we saw color fading with change in color purity and decreased saturation compared to original products when they were completely dry. Especially, in the case of achromatic color, white, completely dry, decreased in lightness, resulting in very low whiteness compared to the original product, whereas black, completely dry, increased in lightness, resulting in low blackness compared to the original product. Therefore, in expressing works with black and white in high lightness, it would be better if achromatic color is used for the sake of painting over or applying a little achromatic color on a small part of the skin for highlight effect. Second, water-based paints which are applied to the works undergo a drying process to preserve the works. In the drying process, we found a very large deviation in time depending upon color. Hence, in creating art makeup works, arranging sequence of colouring needs to take into account the drying speed which varies depending upon color. Finally, water-based paints had consistency against stimuli such as a little bit movement unless there were direct stimuli to them after they were applied to the skin and became completely dry. But they turned out to be vulnerable to watery stimuli such as sweat. Therefore, location, lighting, and temperature should be taken into consideration in creating works. Especially, in a sweating-triggered environment, a lot of attention should be paid to keep the works intact. If necessary, water resistant products may be a good choice.

AbstractNumerous studies covering courtly dancing and its portrayal in medieval European religious art and literature seem to have, to a large extent, exhausted this subject. Nevertheless, works on courtly dances remain, for the most part, more speculative in nature than apparent at first glance. This is amazing when we consider the importance of courtly dance in literature and art dating from the Middle Ages, as there are only few Middle High German poems in which collective dance is not mentioned. Contrasting with this great number and wide range of references to dance is its small footprint in works dealing with the history of dance. Only a small number of works touch up this issue, and these have only collected and analysed fragments of the source material available. Hence, any conclusions cannot but lack critical depth with regard to the varying degrees of stylisation present, and their importance when attempting to draw comparisons between reports bound by tradition and stereotyped in nature, and those that exhibit greater literariness. This paper aims to discuss these problems and serves as a contribution to the field of the history of dance as reflected in medieval literature.

The purpose of this study is to increase the artistic value of hair art. And it is about providing basic data and expanding contributions to follow-up research. Hair art works reinterpret the inner beauty of winter flowers that bloom in full bloom in the cold winter. The research method collected prior studies and references based on winter flowers. Also, we selected four types of winter flowers and analyzed their shapes and colors. I created 4 pieces of hair art. As a result, the colorful color of work 1 increased the aesthetic effect due to its high chroma. Works 2 expresses the elegance of irregularly blooming petals on a single stalk. In work 3, warm yellow flowers are soft and cozy on a scrawny tree. The flower in work 4 is seductive navy purple. And the large and small flowers were placed stably with increased concentration. In conclusion, the possibility of creating hair art from a new perspective was confirmed by applying several colors with white wigs. In future research, we look forward to the possibility of combining hair art with nature motifs and re-lighting it with formative art to satisfy its value.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the study of the life and work of representatives of the art school of painting in Chuguev. Due to the huge losses of their heritage, it still remains a blank spot in the history of national culture. The uniqueness of the masters of the brush of a small military settlement, which was Chuguev in the 19th century, consists in the fact that they came from a soldier and peasant environment. Mastering various technical techniques of painting, they worked in different genres. This allowed the Chuguev artists to create works of a secular and spiritual nature, including icons and frescoes. New names of Chuguev painters are introduced into scientific circulation, the characteristic of the works of Chuguev masters that have reached our time is given, and the peculiarities of their creativity are highlighted. The myth of the influence of Western European art on the work of the Chuguev masters is debunked. The Chuguev Art School is part of the Russian art school. Its significance lies in the fact that in the conditions of military settlements, examples of high art were created, understandable and close to every resident. The works created by local artists contributed to the creation of a special spiritual atmosphere in the Chuguev military district, the development of a common mentality and spiritual unification of the swedens – people of different nationalities and faiths.

Full textAbstract:
The article is devoted to the historiography of sentimentalism in the Russian scientific tradition. The purpose of the research is to compare the methods used in literary and art studies to overview this phenomenon. The uncertainty of ideas about sentimentalism in the visual arts requires an appeal to literary studies. A careful analysis of works on sentimentalism in this field revealed the special role of the works of M. M. Bakhtin and G. N. Pospelov, who created original concepts of this phenomenon, and has made it possible to state a wide range of methods. Consideration of the sentimentalism problem in the history of art has demonstrated not only the generality of ideas and a small number of methods in comparison with literary criticism, but also the main principles inherent in the scientific tradition. Firstly, the idea of sentimentalism is based on abstract theses. Secondly, the main approach is to compare sentimentalism with classicism and Romanticism, which prevents determining its place in the art of the 1790s. Thirdly, the pictorial system of sentimentalism is considered in the most general form and turns out to be devoid of a thorough art historical description. A critical analysis of historiography allowed to identify promising areas of modern research of sentimentalism in art criticism: a careful analysis of the artistic features of works, the study of the metamorphoses of the portrait genre as well as a comparison of the Russian portrait with European art of the 18th — early 19th centuries.

Full textAbstract:
This article reviews the significance of Alexander Calder’s, a renowned sculptor, technical and engineering expertise that has become increasingly clear in recent years. Calder’s most important innovation in the development of wire sculpture was the suspension of his wire forms from a single wire thread. A small wood-and-wire caricature of a monkey was the first, soon followed by several caricatures of Josephine Baker, the star of La Revue N è gre at the Folies Bergè re and an international sensation in 1925. Like Leonardo da Vinci, Calder was primarily interested in problem solving, in experimenting with materials, mechanical systems, and devices. Calder’s studio was like a laboratory, with experimental works piled into corners or suspended from hooks in the ceiling. The most engaging aspect of Calder’s sculpture was its interaction with space. Mobiles participated in lively dialogues with their environs, reacting to air currents and human touch.

Art in public space is still untapped potential. The garden at ‘Labirynt’ Gallery is an opportunity to publish a work of art and a place for a wide range of artistic activities. Here, access to works will be free and universal, and the art exhibited in public space will enter into a dialogue with the viewer. The design concept was influenced by the terrain, the existing vegetation, and the gallery building style. A new communication system, elements of small architecture, plantings, and illuminations were designed. The design of the Gallery’s surroundings was to make the facility recognizable and friendly.

Abstract Organo- and hydrogels have been proposed in the restoration field to treat different types of surfaces. The possibility to retain solvents and to have a controlled and superficial action allowed to use these materials for the removal of very thin layers applied on ancient historical objects, when the under paint layers are particularly delicate and water sensitive. In the last years, an increased attention has been devoted to the proposal of more healthy products to guarantee the safeguard of the operators. Few attention has been devoted to the development of green methods which foresee the use of renewable and biodegradable materials. The aim of this paper is to test a green organo-gel for the cleaning of water sensitive surfaces like varnished egg tempera paintings. The gel has been tested experimented on mock ups varnished with natural and synthetic materials and has been validated on a small portion of a Cimabue painting for the removal of two varnishes applied on two different test areas of the painting.

Full textAbstract:
The article examines the particularities of the development in the Urals region of the genre of fi gurative sculpture of small forms from assembled stone by means of comparison with the art of the Italian masters from the baroque period, the establishers of this type of stonecutting art. The small fi gurative sculpture from assembled stone (polylite), which has developed as an independent genre of the art of stonecutting in the 17th century in Italy, acquired further development not only in Western Europe, but also in Russia, in the large-scale centers of artistic elaboration of stone in the country. In the region of the Ural Mountains, notwithstanding the pre-revolutionary conditions, the mastery of the principles of preparation of anthropomorphic images in the polylite technique took place only during the Soviet period as a particular school of preparation of specialists. At the contemporary stage it becomes possible to observe an active development of this genre in the artworks of the stonecutters of the Urals. The present-day fl ourishing of the polylite fi gurative sculpture of small forms in the works of the Urals-based stonecutters is connected here not only with the culture of elaborating this material and the successive continuity of the skills of working in the polylite technique, but also with the turn to the traditions of polychrome fi gurative compositions of Florentine masters of the Baroque Era, the effectiveness and naturalist qualities of their depiction.

"Girlfriends", "Virgin Soil Newlyweds", "A Protracted Explanation", "New Settlers. From a Tent to a New House", "Day off", "Tractor Tent" — these and other works were created by the artist Dmitry Mochalsky during the thaw era, his small genre compositions of the war years were continued in the whole cycle of works "People of Virgin Lands". This stage in the artist's work is characterized by a free manner of painting, the discovery and revival of the traditions of color, coming from the masters of the beginning of the century. The main direction in the works of artists of the 1908s–1988s was the image of the simple man, in contrast to the heroic canvases of the "cult of personality" period, this was facilitated by the weakening of censorship and condemnation of many previous negative trends in art.

The audience for contemporary classical music is small – the audience for computer music is even smaller. Traditional concert halls are failing to generate interest in new instrumental music, much less computer music, while museums are having much more success with new art, including art with a technological component. By marketing our music to art galleries and museums, we can reach an audience predisposed to accept the new and unusual in artistic expression. Presenting the works of music outside a traditional proscenium setting also helps shatter any a priori definitions of ‘music’ audiences may hold. Using the term ‘Sound Art’ instead of ‘music’ may also help to free people struggling to appreciate unfamiliar sounds.

Full textAbstract:
Texture has strong expressiveness in picture art, and color texture features play an important role in composition. Together with texture, they can convey the artistic connotation of portrait, especially in oil painting. Therefore, in order to make the picture form oil painting style and oil painting schema, we need to study the texture and color texture in combination with the previous oil painting art images. But now, there are few samples of good oil paintings, so it is difficult to study the texture and color texture in oil paintings. Therefore, in order to form a unique artistic style of modern oil painting and promote the development of modern oil painting art, this paper studies the texture and color texture characteristics in the environment of few oil painting works. This paper establishes a model through deep neural network to extract the image incentive and color texture of oil painting art works, which provides guidance for promoting the development of oil painting art. The experiments in this paper show that the depth neural network has high definition for the extraction of texture and color texture of small sample oil painting images, which can reach more than 85%. It has high guiding significance for the research and creation of oil painting art.

Full textAbstract:
Pilgrims’ badges often depicted works of art located at a cult center, and these cheap, small images frequently imitated monumental works. Was this relationship ever reversed? In late medieval Hamburg, a painted altarpiece from a Hanseatic guild narrates the life of Thomas Becket in four scenes, two of which survive. In 1932, Tancred Borenius declared this altarpiece to be the first monumental expression of Becket’s narrative in northern Germany. Since then, little scholarship has investigated the links between this work and the Becket cult elsewhere. With so much visual art from the medieval period lost, it is impossible to trace the transmission of imagery with any certainty. Nevertheless, this discussion considers badges as a means of disseminating imagery for subsequent copying. This altarpiece and the pilgrims’ badges that it closely resembles may provide an example of a major work of art borrowing a composition from an inexpensive pilgrim’s badge and of the monumental imitating the miniature.

Stepan Fedorovich Turov was drawing artist who has served an important purpose of the development of book illustration at the Krasnoyarsk Krai, he was an artist who has been famous in his own lifetime at home and abroad. Works of art on the theme of the North forms a large part of Turov’s heritage but no one research that characterized specificity of realization of the North at Turov’s creative work has been published until the present. There is very small amount of published works about the artist. I. M. Davydenko’s opening chapter of the catalogue of posthumous exhibition of Turov of the 1983 is only one attempt to bring comprehensive analysis of the art of the artist. At books and papers of T. M. Lomanova, E. D. Getmanski and V. Averikhin only a few artworks made by Turov are examined. The aims of this scientific paper are to summarize data about graphic works made by Turov and devoted to the North and to find specific pictorial patterns that are used at these works. At the paper the key aspects are contemplated where the theme of the North in the art of Turov was found out: book illustration, series of easel etchings, linocut landscapes, ex-libris. There was made a connection between book illustration and easel graphic works made by Turov on the theme of the North. This paper not only brings a coherent picture of the development of the theme of the North in art of Turov for the first time. It also put into scientific circulation an information about unpublished artworks made by Turov and new facts of the artist’s biography connected with the North. It was identified that the theme of the North is essential in art of Stepan Fedorovich Turov. Often he tried out new genres and composition patterns specifically within the theme of the North. There were denoted characteristic features of works of art made by Turov on the theme of the North such as individual method of describing a space and keen perception of the culture of indigenous northern people.

Full textAbstract:
Virtual depth displays depend on static, monocular cues. Models of integrating monocular cues may be continuous (additive) or discontinuous. Previous research using simple displays and a small number of cues supported continuous cue integration. The present research is designed to expand the understanding of how the visual system integrates information from multiple pictorial cues by investigating combinations of one to ten pictorial cues in visually-rich, two-dimensional displays (paintings and photographs). Participants estimated depth in target paintings and photographs relative to a standard two dimensional display. Certain results suggest that the visual system integrates cues in a largely additive way, but after a number of cues are present there may be an additional boost in perceived depth resulting in a best-fittingdiscontinuous model of cue combination. However, this discontinuous effect may be due to designdecisions made by the painters rather than exclusively to the perceptual processes of the viewers. Analyses of these design decisions provide lessons for the design of two-dimensional displays.

Kazan Art School is a famous Russian educational institution that became an art educational center in the Volga-Kama Region and the Trans-Urals. In 2020, the school represented by N.I. Feshin Kazan Art College celebrates its 125th anniversary. It was opened under the direct tutelage of the Imperial Academy of Arts (1895) on the initiative of the Academy graduates, natives of the Kazan Region N.N. Belkovich, G.A. Medvedev, H.N. Skornyakov, I.A. Denisov, and Yu.I. Thyssen with the assistance of the city authorities. The historical walls of the school are marked by the teaching and pedagogical contribution of such legendary personalities as N.I. Feshin, P.P. Benkov and B.I. Urmanche, A.M. Rodchenko, P.A. Radimov, P.M. Dulsky, D.D. Burliuk, V.K. Timofeyev and other famous masters of the Russian art. The collection of the State Museum of Fine Arts of the Republic of Tatarstan contains the main artistic heritage of the school of the pre-revolutionary period and the first years of Soviet history (1895–1920s), which is considered in the given article. Conventionally, this legacy consists of three main parts. The main part includes works by the founders, teachers and students of the Kazan Art School. It is a fairly extensive collection of several hundred paintings and graphic works, as well as a small number of sculptural exhibits. The collection gives an opportunity to get acquainted with typical examples of the creative manner of the main representatives of the school. All of them are characterized by a special individuality of the visual language, but a diverse visual range is united by a common culture of vision. The collection is also particularly valuable due to the fact that it presents rare famous examples of the work of such artists as Yu.I. Thyssen, L.F. Ovsyannikov, F.P. Gavrilov, N.I. Mikhailov and others. An art museum operated at the Kazan school, which was created with the active involvement of the Academy of Arts.The museum operates at the school in a transformed form up to the present day. The collection of the Fine Arts Museum of the republic contains the bulk of the works of this collection, which gives an idea of the scale of the Academy of Arts activities to support the school with donated works. There are about 80 of them in total. The names of many are well known in the history of Russian art: I.E. Repin, I.I. Shishkin, A.P. Bogolyubov, K.E. Makovsky, V.V. Mate, A.F. Gausch, F.S. Zhuravlev, A.A. Kiselev, R.F. Franz and others. The museum collection also contains works by the most famous student of the Kazan Art School – Nikolai Ivanovich Feshin (1881–1955), who later was an equally famous school teacher (since 1909). The largest collection of Feshin's works in Russia, including painting, graphics, sculpture, decorative and applied art of the master (over 180 works) is kept in Kazan.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractAlmost every Kunstkammer in sixteenth-century Europe contained small reptiles or plants cast from life in a variety of media. This widespread technique, which used small, recently killed animals as a pattern to create lifelike sculptures, was often prized more highly than works sculpted with the hand. An unstudied, late sixteenth-century French technical manuscript records a practitioner's experiments in casting from life, among many other subjects. This article investigates both the techniques and the significance of life-casting on the basis of this treatise, incorporating the examination of surviving sixteenth-century European life casts and the reconstruction of the manuscript's recipes and technical instructions, arguing that life-casting in the sixteenth century was viewed in part as a means to the knowledge of nature.

Abstract Finch College was a small women's liberal arts college located on the Upper East Side of Manhattan open from 1900 to 1975. The Contemporary Wing of the Finch College Museum of Art held a number of important exhibitions for conceptual art, experimental media, and film organized by the museum's curator, Elayne Varian, from 1966 to 1975. This article addresses how ideas of process, reproduction, and documentation were being reconfigured at Finch, especially in film and media art of the 1960s. Robert Morris's film installation, Finch College Project (US, 1969), is emblematic of this larger turn toward process in the visual arts; however, Varian's Projected Art exhibitions complicate our understanding of how and why artistic process became a subject of interest. In light of what Boltanski and Esquerre have recently identified as an “enrichment economy” and what feminist thinkers of the time theorized as reproductive labor, works in the Projected Art series shift attention to the reproductive labor of caring for, curating, collecting, and consuming visual art and film. I argue that Varian's exhibitions as a whole complicate our understanding of process-oriented work during the postwar period, especially film and media that moved into gallery exhibition spaces. These works attacked the existing modes of production by turning toward process, complicating the status of photographic reproduction, and contributing their own surplus value through reproductive labor.

Coconut stem has been utilized in every coconut producing country in some form or other. Its utilization varies widely from small bridges to houses, furnitures and works of art. In Indonesia it is used mainly in Java, the most densely populated island. In other islands it is rarely used except for foot bridges because of two reasons. First, the farmers are reluctant to fell their coconut trees for its yield, however, small it is. Second, there is still enough supply of forest wood.

Full textAbstract:
The article highlights the unique work of a prominent Polish master of monumental art, the author of numerous stained glass windows, murals and mosaics of the temples of Poland by Adam Stalony-Dobrzanski (1904-1985), whose father Felix Dobrzanski is a Pole, and mother Anna Kovalenko, a native of Chernihiv, Ukrainian. Dobrzanski spent his youth in Ukraine, and in 1923 he moved with his parents to the restored Polish state; He graduated from the Cracow Academy of Arts and began working in the field of artistic design of Catholic churches, Greek Catholic and Orthodox temples. Feature of Dobzhansky’s creative style is a harmonious combination of ancient medieval Gothic style with the latest styles of Impressionism, Modernism and others; as well as the introduction of inscriptions with the original letter form as an integral part of the stained glass image system. Another noticeable feature of the stained glass windows of Adam Steglovy Dobzhan is the harmony of large and small forms. Of course, he is born, as they say, a monumentalist in the arts. There is greatness in his works. The elongated window openings of the Orthodox, Greek Catholic churches and Roman Catholic churches required verticality. Therefore, this architecture is completely approached by long Gothic stained glass figures. But Dobzhansky would not be Dobzhansky if his age were confined to the composition of tall, sometimes tall, figures. In every large and tall form, he “streams” with many small glasses, in which he writes texts in Latin or Cyrillic letters. This flamboyant scattering of small shapes moves and shimmers like a kaleidoscope, enlivening the statics of the stained glass central figure. Here Dobzhansky presents his knowledge of stained glass. Middle Ages in the Catholic countries of the West, which still amaze the beauty of their kaleidoscopic overflows. There is, of course, a contrast between the large in size and these tiny multicolored glasses. This contrast sends the viewer to the baroque, which maximized the contrast in the riot of flexible forms. These forms do not exist in Mr. Adam’s stained-glass windows, but his contrasts reflect the breadth of the search, a master who crafted his unique language in the field of ancient and modern art styles in the ancient and eternally young stained glass art.

Full textAbstract:
Speaking of bronze here we refer to various objects made of bronze which is an alloy composed of pure copper and tin, which contains a small fraction of lead. Because bronze is an alloy, its melting point is at a lower temperature than that of pure copper, but the material itself is harder. Ji jin 1 (吉金)ritual metal vessels, mentioned in ancient Chinese sources are in fact works of bronze. The invention of bronze alloys was an event of epochal historical importance. Thus, the period from the invention of bronze to ubiquitous use of iron is called the Bronze Age. The Bronze Age in China began with the birth of the Chinese civilization. It lasted until the end of Han dynasty and had several stages of development. Works of bronze first appeared in China in slave-owning society of XiaShang (夏商2070 BC), and reached its zenith at the peak of slave-owning system at the end of Shang (商)and the beginning of Zhou. After the end of Chunqiu period (春 秋475 BC) the slave-owning system began to decline, and the production of bronze items dwindled. In comparison to Shang and Zhou (周朝) bronze, Han objects are much smaller in size because during this period their primary purpose was to be used in common everyday life. Mystical, solemn and even somewhat barbaric bronze of Shang and Zhou was replaced by modest, practical and convenient household utensils.

Abstract The American self-made businessman Daniel J. Terra (1911–1996) collected art as a testament to his patriotism and in an attempt to establish his cultural prowess. Between 1971 and his death in 1996, Terra amassed a collection of 605 paintings, works on paper, and sculpture, made possible by a small network of art dealers who aided Terra in his rapid transformation of the American art market. After a failed attempt to donate his collection to the Art Institute of Chicago, Terra created not one, but two museums in Illinois and one in France over the course of twelve years. Each Terra-backed museum struggled to find visitors, structures of support, and strategic vision while under his control. With the disappearance of each museum, the story of Terra’s art collection became inexorably intertwined with concepts of value, identity, and the physical shift from private hobby to public endeavour.

Yuan, Lei. "Hand and Eye: Study on the Relationship between Painting and Photography from Benjamin's Perspective." International Journal of Arts and Humanities Studies 4, no. 1 (January 20, 2024): 09–13. http://dx.doi.org/10.32996/ijahs.2024.4.1.2.
Full textAbstract:
The birth of printing brought great changes to literature, and the continuous fragmentation of printmaking media allowed pictorial art products to flow into the market. However, no one could have imagined that just a few decades later, the birth of photography would remove the human hand from the main artistic task of image reproduction, which would henceforth be reserved for the eyes staring at the lens. Walter Benjamin, as an early scholar among Western intellectuals in the 20th century, paid attention to the study of the relationship between photography and painting. The Small History of Photography and Works of Art in the Era of Mechanical Reproduction written by him can be regarded as classic works of photographic theory, modern cultural theory and modern art theory. His focus is on the juxtaposition study of photography and painting, two art categories that are both visual image presentation, which is pioneering, original and foundational. Although the paper is not long, the game between symbol and image, politics and economy, and subjective and objective is particularly wonderful. Therefore, it is particularly necessary to dig deeper into Benjamin's theoretical connotation and fully reveal his value in all aspects. The combination of the relationship between painting and photography has also injected impetus into the construction of contemporary visual culture.

Leonardson, Eric. "The Springboard: The Joy of Piezo Disk Pickups for Amplified Coil Springs." Leonardo Music Journal 17 (December 2007): 17–20. http://dx.doi.org/10.1162/lmj.2007.17.17.
Full textAbstract:
The Springboard is a do-it-yourself instrument made from readily available materials: An amplified soundboard makes the vibrations of coil springs and a variety of other small and nonprecious objects audible. Thanks to a simple piezo contact microphone, the Springboard's humble constitution belies the richness of its sounds, a signature of the author's activities in live and recorded works across many art disciplines.
