Join the art critic Ben Eastham on a private tour of an extraordinary, imaginary museum. Stand in front of some of the most incomprehensible art works in the world with an expert guide by your side, full of personal stories, expertise and human understanding. In a stunningly original memoir and art guide we find ourselves among outrageous artworks and we return again and again to the same question: But what does it mean?

The subject of this audiobook is humankind's extraordinary relationship with colour. It is composed of a series of voyages, ranging across the world and throughout history, which reveal the meanings that have been attached to the colours we see around us and the ways these have shaped our culture and imagination. It takes seven primary colours - black, red, yellow, blue, white, purple and green - and uncovers behind each a root idea, based on visual resemblances or properties so rudimentary as to be common to all societies.

La mattina del 10 ottobre 1517 il cardinale Luigi d'Aragona e il suo segretario Antonio de Beatis salirono su una collina sulle rive della Loira verso il castello di Cloux. Non andavano a rendere omaggio a un membro della famiglia reale ma a un principe dell'arte, e per di più italiano. In quella giornata, Leonardo mostra al cardinale e al suo seguito tre quadri ai quali stava lavorando e che saranno gli ultimi che dipingerà prima di morire: la Sant'Anna, il San Giovannino e la Gioconda.

The divide between the digital and the real world no longer exists: we are connected all the time. How do we find out who we are within this digital era? Where do we create the space to explore our identity? How can we come together and create solidarity? The glitch is often dismissed as an error, a faulty overlaying, but, as Legacy Russell shows, liberation can be found within the fissures between gender, technology and the body that it creates.

Reacting to the tumultuous crises of the twentieth century, especially the horrors of World War I, avant-garde artists and writers sought to destroy art by transforming it into the substance of everyday life. Following the evolution of these revolutionary groups, How to Be Avant-Garde charts its pioneers and radical ideas.

The Louvre is the most famous museum in the world, attracting millions of visitors every year with its masterpieces. In Adventures in the Louvre, Elaine Sciolino immerses herself in this magical space and helps us fall in love with what was once a forbidding fortress. Exploring galleries, basements, rooftops, and gardens, Sciolino demystifies the Louvre, introducing us to her favorite artworks, both legendary and overlooked, and to the people who are the museum's lifeblood.

Em Mulheres na história da arte, mergulharemos em narrativas que ressaltam a extraordinária jornada das mulheres na arte ao longo dos séculos. Desde as grandes mestras renascentistas até as contemporâneas pioneiras do século XXI, este livro oferece uma perspectiva abrangente e inspiradora sobre como as mulheres desafiaram e redefiniram os limites do mundo artístico.

Модерн, ар-нуво, югендштиль, сецессион – все это о нем, прекрасном, оригинальном, загадочном, а порой и откровенно-чувственном стиле, подчинившем себе изобразительное искусство на рубеже XIX и XX столетий. С этим художественным явлением связано множество знаменитейших архитекторов, живописцев, графиков, мастеров прикладного искусства, но, пожалуй, самыми яркими и самыми значимыми являются имена Антонио Гауди, Густава Климта и Альфонса Мухи, о чем свидетельствует неизменное внимание к их персонам самой широкой аудитории.

This extraordinarily wide-ranging work represents a new departure for contemporary literary theory. Author of Beginnings and the controversial Orientalism, Edward Said demonstrates that modern critical discourse has been impressively strengthened by the writings of Jacques Derrida and Michel Foucault, for example, and by such influences as Marxism, structuralism, linguistics, and psychoanalysis.

In the spring of 1790 two of the most gifted artists in Europe met in Rome and became fast friends, sharing their views on art, visiting the city’s ancient sites and making trips to the opera together. The Swiss history painter Angelica Kauffman and the French portraitist Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun are no longer household names in the early twenty-first century but were much-fêted celebrities in the late eighteenth. Franny Moyle uses their meeting in the eternal city as the point of departure for a lavishly illustrated 'life and times’ biography of two brilliant but neglected women artists.

Since the inception of mainstream art history, Blackness has been distinctly ignored. In Reframing Blackness, art historian and founder of @ABlackHistoryOfArt, Alayo Akinkugbe challenges this void. Exploring the presentation of Black figures in Western art, Blackness in museums, Blackness in feminist art movements, as well as Blackness in the curriculum, Alayo unveils an overlooked but integral part of our collective art history.

Many bemoan the decay of culture. But we all have a responsibility to care for culture, to nurture it in ways that help people thrive. In Culture Care artist Makoto Fujimura issues a call to cultural stewardship, in which we become generative and feed our culture's soul with beauty, creativity, and generosity. We serve others as cultural custodians of the future. This is a book for artists, but artists come in many forms.

Kate Bryan is a self-confessed art addict who has worked with art for over twenty years. But before she studied art history at university, she’d been into a gallery just twice in her life and had no idea she was entering an elitist world. Now, she’s on a mission to help everybody come to art. Like playing or listening to music, or cooking and eating great food, reading or watching films, making art or looking at other people’s deserves to be an enriching part of all our lives. So here, in HOW TO ART, is a nifty way to take art on your own terms.

إن للحياة فن يجب أن نتعلمه كما نتعلم الموسيقى والنحت.

A partir del siglo V a. JV. (aprox.) el pueblo griego se convierte, no sólo en el mejor creador artístico de su época, sino en el mejor creador artístico de la historia, o al menos en uno de los dos o tres más cualificados y conocidos. Nadie puede estudiar arte sin conocer la producción artística del clasicismo heleno que aquí vamos a mostrar muy brevemente, con algunas de las obras que se han convertido en símbolo artístico de todos los tiempos.

Suele relacionarse el Neolítico con la aparición de la agricultura y la ganadería, aunque no se ha estudiado profundamente quiénes consiguieron realmente esta meta que también estuvo relacionada (aunque no siempre se destaca suficientemente) con muchos otros descubrimientos revolucionarios de la historia. De cualquier forma el arte neolítico es la mejor expresión de esta revolución que dirigió a la especie humana por un sendero irreversible hasta nuestros días.

Breve repaso por la época humana carente de escritura. Época muy larga y cargada de contenidos que no siempre podemos interpretar adecuadamente porque lo primero que tendríamos que explicar es cómo el ser humano pudo estar cientos de miles de años cazando y recogiendo alimentos para, después, en un periodo de cinco mil años escasos, llegar al desarrollo actual.

A finales del siglo XIX comienzan a sentirse los primeros gritos de alerta. Si en el XVI el pueblo rector era Italia, en el XIX Francia ocupaba el sitio de honor reservado a los caudillos artísticos, concretamente París. Y en París comienzan a sonar nombres y a exponer pinturas unos artistas que se revuelven inquietos bajo el peso del esteticismo impresionista. Toulouse Lautrec y Van Gogh son dos de los más representativos que se orientan por el camino del expresionismo.

Egipto es una estrecha franja de terreno fertilizado por el Nilo, en el que se desarrollaron gran cantidad de estilos y periodos absolutamente deslumbrantes. Aquí tenemos una breve colección de obras de todo tipo que puede acercarnos a contemplar sus resultados y reflexionar sobre una de las primeras culturas humanas de la historia.

Resumimos aquí la muestra de la mejor producción artística humana, que nació de un pueblo guerrero y comerciante como los helenos, que se convirtió en el emblema del género humano durante varios siglos. Aunque su actividad económica fue semejante a la de los fenicios, por ejemplo, nadie ha podido explicar jamás cómo desarrollaron su mente y su capacidad de creación artística hasta el nivel que ellos alcanzaron, que llegó a convertirse en meta y símbolo del arte de todos los tiempos.
