From the sixteenth century to the present, drawing the human body from life has remained a mainstay of Western institutional art practice.

Pose, Power, Practice is a one-day symposium that seeks to reassess the state of the field on life drawing and apply new critical frameworks to this...

Colloque international : « Nuovi studi sul disegno di paesaggio: materialità, esperienza, pratica, 1500-1800 », Venise, Fondation Cini, 14-15 mars 2024

Il disegno di paesaggio è stato per lungo tempo considerato come passatempo amatoriale o esercizio delle abilità compositive in relazione alla produzione pittorica. L’orientamento degli studi più recenti verso questioni di pratica artistica e materialità delle opere ha permesso di esplorare il disegno di paesaggio in quanto opera d’arte autonoma o come restituzione dell’esperienza della natura. Del resto, disegni e stampe di paesaggi prodotti da artisti come Leonardo e Dürer, Rembrandt, Cozens e Fragonard, continuano ad affascinare...

Conférence : Maria Aresin, Paul Holberton, « Venetian Disegno: New Frontiers », Londres, The Courtauld, 8 février 2024

The relationship between disegno (drawing or design) and Venetian art has historically been a problematic one. Giorgio Vasari’s notion that painters from Venice and the Veneto were mainly focused on colore and not trained in or accustomed to drawing became a commonplace in the literature on Venetian art. The title of this book, Venetian Disegno, would for him imply an unacceptable paradox. This view can no longer be sustained in light of modern scholarship, and it is clear that drawing...

Disegno (Italian for drawing or design) refers to the philosophical relationship between the conceptual role of design and the physical act of drawing.

Parution : Lex Bosman (ed.), “The Creation of Space and the Connection between Models and Drawings as Design Tools”, Turnhout, Brepols, 2023

The essays in this volume address the problem of three dimensions in architecture and the ways architects in the 16th century (and before and after) solved this problem during the design process. Two-dimensional drawings were used as the most helpful element in the design process, as well as for the presentation of designs. Those involved, not only patrons but also construction workers, should be able to understand what a two-dimensional design would turn out to...
