Hardback. Condition: New. From the late 15th to the mid-16th century, an impressive corpus of architecture, sculpture, and painting was created to embellish monastic sites affiliated with the Benedictine Cassinese Congregation of Italy. A religious order of humanistically trained monks, the Cassinese engaged with the most eminent artists and architects of the early modern period, supporting the production of imagery and architecture that was often highly experimental in nature: from Raphael's Sistine Madonna in Piacenza to Andrea Riccio's Moses/Zeus Ammon, from Andrea Palladio's church of San Giorgio Maggiore (Venice) to the superbly crafted choirstalls of San Severino and Sossio (Naples).Applying a network framework to the congregation's infrastructure of monasteries makes clear that the circulation of sophisticated Renaissance art and architecture constituted only a segment of the monks' investment in the arts. Monks also served as custodians of an antique monumental heritage and popular votive images, assuring the survival of ancient buildings and artifacts of limited aesthetic value that supplied opportunities for early modern masters to confront an array of artworks for the reinvention of reformed Christian art and architecture.Text in English, Italian and German.

Rilegato. Condition: new. A cura di Nova A. e Periti G. Milano, 2021; ril., pp. 343, 182 ill. b/n, 15 ill. col., cm 16,5x24. (Saggi in Officina). Dalla fine del Quattrocento alla metą del Cinquecento viene realizzato un incredibile corpus di opere di architettura, scultura e pittura per ornare i monasteri della Congregazione cassinese dell'Ordine di san Benedetto in Italia. La congregazione era stata fondata dall'abate Ludovico Barbo, dell'abbazia di Santa Giustina a Padova, e ad essa aderirono altri giovani umanisti di nobili famiglie veneziane come Antonio Correr e Gabriele Condulmer. I Cassinesi commissionarono opere ai maggiori artisi del momento, supportando la creazione di immagini e architetture dal carattere sperimentale: dalla Madonna sistina di Raffaello a Piacenza al Mosč/Zeus Ammone di Andrea Riccio, dalla chiesa di San Giorgio Maggiore a Venezia di Palladio al superbo coro dei Santi Severino e Sossio a Napoli. Tuttavia la circolazione delle opere pił sofisticate e dell'architettura pił innovativa costituiva solo una parte dell'impegno dei monaci nell'arte. Erano anche i custodi di un antico patrimonio monumentale e di immagini votive popolari, e assicurarono la sopravvivenza di antichi edifici e manufatti magari di valore estetico minore, ma che offrirono l'opportunitą agli artisti rinascimentali di confrontarsi con una serie di opere d'arte che sarebbero state poi alla base della reinvenzione di un'arte e un'architettura cristiane riformate.
