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...

Parution : Marsha Libina, “Sebastiano del Piombo and the Sacred Image”, Turnhout, Brepols, 2022

On account of the artists’ collaborative practice, Sebastiano del Piombo’s oeuvre is often misconstrued as a coloristic supplement to Michelangelo’s disegno or as a mere extension of the older master’s drawings and ideas. Marsha Libina’s book complicates this narrative by offering a critical reevaluation of the devotional art of Sebastiano del Piombo (1485–1547), an important Venetian artist whose Roman work stands at the nexus of questions regarding art, religious reform and the largely unexplored history of artistic collaboration. Investigating...

Exposition : « Giorgio Vasari. Le Livre des dessins. Destinées d’une collection mythique », Paris, Musée du Louvre, 31 mars-18 juillet 2022

Giorgio Vasari a réuni ce qui fut probablement la première collection de dessins fondée sur une logique historisante : le légendaire Libro de’ disegni, qui fait son apparition dans la seconde édition des Vies des plus excellents peintres, sculpteurs et architectes, parue à Florence, en 1568, chez les Giunti. Le 29 juin 1574, deux jours après la mort de Vasari, le Libro fut remis par ses héritiers au grand-duc de Toscane, Francesco I, qui l’avait envoyé chercher. Ensuite,...

Exhibition Overview: Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475–1564), a towering genius in the history of Western art, will be the subject of this once-in-a-lifetime exhibition. During his long life, Michelangelo was celebrated for the excellence of his disegno, the power of drawing and invention that provided the foundation for all the arts. For his mastery of drawing, design, sculpture, painting, and architecture, he was called Il Divino (“the divine one”) by his contemporaries. His powerful imagery and dazzling technical...

Appel à communications : “Chiaroscuro as Aesthetic Principle, 1300-1600”, Bern, date limite : 15 août 2015

Chiaroscuro since Leon Battista Alberti’s De pictura (1435) has been one of the central subjects characterising painting and sculpture in practice and theory in Italy. Primarily, it concerns the articulation of plastic qualities, the formulation of relief, both in painting and sculpture. In the northern tradition, too, chiaroscuro has been highly valued. Through chiaroscuro, the textures of materials and the structural fabric of their surfaces, including their eye-catching highlights, have been evoked. Chiaroscuro goes hand in hand with an intensification of optical qualities....

The emergence of independent drawings in Germany and Italy in the 15th and 16th century Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florenz, Max-Planck-Institut 3-5 mars 2016 Disegno has received great attention from art-historical scholarship for several decades now.
