In the autumn of 2023, the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna showcases a medium that played a central role in the public celebrations of princely power and magnificence during the Renaissance : monumental tapestries. The most exquisite products fashioned from delicate silks and precious metal threads were produced in Brussels, including the series of tapestries depicting the story of the Apostles, commissioned by Pope Leo X (1475-1521) for the Sistine Chapel in Rome.

La grande pala d’altare realizzata da Raffaello alla fine del suo periodo fiorentino, magnifica ed incompiuta, dalla Galleria Palatina di Palazzo Pitti giunge a Pescia nella chiesa che l’aveva accolta per oltre un secolo e mezzo tra Cinquecento e Seicento.

Conférence : Antonio Sgamellotti, « Raphael in Villa Farnesina. From the colours of prosperity to the Egyptian Blue », Londres, The Courtauld, 15 septembre 2022

Villa Farnesina, the house of Agostino Chigi designed by Baldassarre Peruzzi, and decorated by the masters of Renaissance painting is one of the highest artistic expressions of this period. The fable of Apuleius, frescoed in the Loggia of Cupid and Psyche by Raphael and his workshop, is framed by vegetable festoons: their rich hues associated with fruits from all continents represent the colours of prosperity. The chromatic richness of these fruits, many of them still...

Parution : Barbara Jatta et Nadia Righi (dir.), Raffaello La predella della Pala Oddi, Cinisello Balsamo, Silvana Editoriale, 2022

La raffinata predella della Pala Oddi raffigurante l’Annunciazione, l’Adorazione dei Magi e la Presentazione al tempio, conservata nei Musei Vaticani ma in origine in San Francesco al Prato a Perugia, è uno dei capolavori del giovane Raffaello (Urbino, 1483 – Roma, 1520), grande protagonista del Rinascimento italiano. Eseguita intorno al 1504, è considerata l’opera di Raffaello più vicina a Perugino: indubbio è il carattere intensamente peruginesco delle tre scene, che rivelano la conoscenza della dolcezza e della morbidezza della...

Parution : Francesco Caglioti (ed), “Donatello: The Renaissance”, Venise, Marsilio, 2022

  A beautiful appraisal of the Renaissance sculptor’s achievements, contextualized with works by his contemporaries. The first thorough overview of the artist in many years, Donatello: The Renaissance reconstructs the outstanding career of one of the greatest sculptors in Western art. Famed for his incredibly sensual sculpture of David—the first freestanding nude male sculpture since antiquity—Donatello (c. 1386–1466) also made reliefs, but was best known for statues in the round. Accompanying a truly historic exhibition...

Exposition : « Raphael », Londres, National Gallery, du 9 avril au 31 juillet 2022.

His life was short, his work prolific, and his legacy immortal. A painter, draughtsman, architect, archaeologist, and poet, Raphael captured in his art the human and the divine, love and friendship, learning and power. In his brief career, spanning just two decades, Raphael shaped the course of Western culture like few artists before or since. This exhibition, one of the first ever to explore Raphael’s complete career, looks at his celebrated paintings and drawings as...

Conférence : Eva Trizzullo, « Raphaël et la promotion de son art dans les coulisses du Vatican », Liège, 10 janvier, 18h30

Si Raphaël Sanzio devait sa fortune aux papes Jules II et Léon X, l’artiste et son atelier purent aussi compter sur le soutien indéfectible des nombreux prélats, cardinaux et autres familiers du pontife qui composaient l’administration vaticane. Cette conférence évoquera le rôle de ces personnages de l’ombre, qui œuvrèrent sans relâche à la promotion de l’art de Raphaël et de ses élèves les plus talentueux. Eva Trizzullo est doctorante en Histoire de l’Art à l’Université...

Parution : D. Allart, A. Geremicca « Raphaël et la gravure. De Rome aux anciens Pays-Bas et à Liège », Liège, La collection d’Arts graphiques anciens du Musée Wittert, 2021

Raphaël était déjà devenu une figure de légende quand la maladie l’emporta le 6 avril 1520, le jour de son 37e anniversaire. Suite à sa disparition inopinée, le mythe qu’il incarnait prit encore de l’ampleur, d’autant que ses œuvres continuèrent d’exercer leur pouvoir de séduction sur les artistes et les amateurs d’art, non seulement en Italie mais aussi au Nord des Alpes. En effet, les créations de Raphaël faisaient parler d’elles bien au-delà des lieux...
