Exposition : “Barocco. Il gran teatro delle idee”, Forlì, Museo Civico San Domenico, du 21 février du 28 juin 2026

La Fondazione Cassa dei Risparmi di Forlì propone per il 2026 un nuovo progetto espositivo dedicato a uno dei movimenti più seducenti della storia dell’arte: il Barocco. A seguito di un’approfondita riflessione sulle diverse declinazioni di questo movimento artistico e sui suoi principali interpreti, la mostra forlivese intende offrire una visione d’insieme della cultura barocca: dal dibattito delle idee che la generarono, ai protagonisti che le diedero forma, fino al ruolo determinante delle committenze e alla...

Exposition : “Sibille. Voci oltre il tempo, oltre la pietra”, Piacenza, Palazzo Farnese, du 5 décembre 2025 au 3 mai 2026

Guercino le dipinse sotto la cupola della Cattedrale, inserendole a pieno titolo nel Ciclo dei Profeti. Ma le Sibille popolano anche la chiesa cinquecentesca di Santa Maria della Campagna, negli affreschi del Pordenone, e si affacciano sull’Incoronazione e Genealogia della Vergine Maria, dipinte da Giovan Battista Trotti detto il Malosso nella Basilica di San Francesco. Insomma a Piacenza le Sibille sono di casa. Misteriose ed eloquenti, le mitiche profetesse tornano protagoniste in città grazie a...

Exposition : “Die Pazzi-Verschwörung Macht, Gewalt und Kunst im Florenz der Renaissance”, Berlin, Bode-Museum, du 24 octobre 2025 au 20 septembre 2026.

Am 26. April 1478 wurden Lorenzo und Giuliano de’ Medici im Chor der Kathedrale von Florenz überfallen. Giuliano verlor sein Leben, Lorenzo überlebte und bestrafte anschließend die Drahtzieher dieser Verschwörung, allen voran die Familie Pazzi. Die Ausstellung möchte diese Geschichte anhand der Sammlungen der Staatlichen Museen zu Berlin nachzeichnen. Das Münzkabinett besitzt Medaillen, die alle Protagonisten der Affäre darstellen, während viele dieser Figuren auch durch Porträts dargestellt werden, die sich jetzt in der Skulpturensammlung und in...

Parution : Joseph Leo Koerner, “Art in a State of Siege”, Princeton, Princeton University Press, 2025

What do artworks look like in extreme cases of collective experience? What signals do artists send when enemies are at the city walls and the rule of law breaks down, or when a tyrant suspends the law to attack from inside? Art in a State of Siege tells the story of three compelling images created in dangerous moments and the people who experienced them—from Philip II of Spain to Carl Schmitt—whose panicked gaze turned artworks into omens....

Parution : Catherine Hall-van den Elsen, “Gender and the Woman Artist in Early Modern Iberia”, Londres, Routledge, 2024

This monograph explores the social constructs surrounding artistic production in early modern Iberia through the lenses of gender and class by examining the rarely considered contribution of creative women in Spain and Portugal between 1550 and 1700. Using the life-stage framework popular in texts of the period and drawing on a broad spectrum of materials including conduct guidebooks, treatises and conventual rules, this book examines the constraints imposed by gender-related social structures through microhistories of...

Parution : Ingrid Vermeulen (dir.), “Art and Its Geographies. Configuring Schools of Art in Europe (1550-1815)”, Amsterdam, Amsterdam University Press, 2024

Schools of art represent one of the building blocks of art history. The notion of a school of art emerged in artistic discourse and disseminated across various countries in Europe during the early modern period. Whilst a school of art essentially denotes a group of artists or artworks, it came to be configured in multiple ways, encompassing different meanings of learning, origin, style, or nation, and mediated in various forms via academies, literature, collections, markets...

Parution : José Eloy Hortal Munoz et Merlijn Hurx (dir.), “Building the Presence of the Prince”, Turnhout, Brepols, 2024

By the late Middle Ages, architecture became an increasingly important means of representation of princely rule and institutions. In addition to their symbolic significance, the ruler’s buildings served a host of practical purposes. Obviously, castles and fortresses defended the territory, while urban and rural residences served the itinerant court during its proceedings, but their possessions also comprised a wider network of estates that included infrastructure and agricultural, commercial, industrial, and administrative buildings. Together, these networks...

Parution : Claudia Goldstein, “Beuckelaer and the Art of Dining. Northern Painting, Food, and Social Class in Early Modern Italy”, Amsterdam, Amsterdam University Press, 2024

Sixteenth-century Flemish painter Joachim Beuckelaer produced dozens of large-scale paintings of contemporary working women and men selling, presenting, and preparing a visually stunning array of foodstuffs for the viewer. These were new subjects in Antwerp and even newer in Italy, where elite merchants and nobles like Margaret of Parma displayed them as they were meant to be displayed: in dining rooms and spaces used for entertaining. This study explores the cross-cultural meanings of Beuckelaer’s distinctly...
