A cura di Beatrice Paolozzi Strozzi, Marc Bormand, Francesca Tasso e Monica Preti. Testo Italiano, Inglese e Francese. Milano, 2024; br., pp. 224, 85 ill. col., cm 16,5x24. (Saggi in Officina). Nella mostra e nel catalogo "Il Corpo e l'anima" si era cercato di sintetizzare la complessa storia della scultura in Italia a cavallo del Cinquecento, raccontata attraverso l'alternanza proposta da Aby Warburg tra l'ethos «apollineo» e il pathos «dionisiaco». Le giornate di studio che l'hanno accompagnata, tenutesi a Parigi e a Milano, hanno offerto l'opportunità a numerosi storici dell'arte e studiosi di approfondire alcuni argomenti e hanno dato vita a questo libro. Philippe Toussaint, prendendo spunto dalle interpretazioni warburghiane sull'antica figura del centauro, analizza il rito funebre nel rilievo della tomba di Francesco Sassetti in Santa Trinita a Firenze, evidenziandone il sincretismo tra mondo pagano e cristiano che ha dato origine a una «immortalità scolpita». Ulrich Pfisterer esplora la scultura come veicolo di piacere, sensualità ed emozione negli studioli, i luoghi in cui gli umanisti e i letterati si dedicavano allo studio, mentre Philippe Morel mostra come la figura della menade, in preda all'antica trance dionisiaca, sintetizzi dolore ed erotismo nell'opera di Agostino di Duccio e Bertoldo di Giovanni. Patricia Lee Rubin si concentra sulla scultura come espressione della malinconia associata alla morte a Roma, sia negli Schiavi per la tomba di Giulio II di Michelangelo sia nella tomba Tornabuoni di Andrea del Verrocchio. La rappresentazione del pathos e il tema dell'obbedienza a Dio e dell'atteggiamento nei confronti della morte sono i temi al centro dello studio di Gabriela Mazzon sul sacrificio di Isacco. Ludmila Acone, dal canto suo, mostra la natura virtuosa della danza nell'Italia del Quattrocento, dove l'immaginazione del movimento coreutico permetteva di dar forma a un mondo ideale. Nel suo studio sul teatro sacro nella Firenze del Quattrocento, Paola Ventrone dimostra come le innovazioni spaziali di Brunelleschi abbiano reso possibile una nuova efficacia espressiva del messaggio visivo per gli spettatori/credenti. Infine, Anne Lepoittevin mette in luce i legami tra il teatro sacro e i gruppi scultorei del Sacro Monte di Varallo.…

This volume collects the papers presented at the international study conference Sculpting in the Renaissance: an art to (com)move / Sculpter à la Renaissance. Un art pour (é)mouvoir organised by the Musée du Louvre in Paris and the Castello Sforzesco in Milan to accompany the exhibition Le corps et l'âme. De Donatello à Michel-Ange. Scultures italiennes de la Renaissance (Officina Libraria, 2020), held between 2020 and 2021. With the involvement of some of the most important specialists in Renaissance sculpture, the aim was to investigate the interactions, influences and exchanges between the plastic arts and other Renaissance art forms capable of revealing feelings through expressions of the body, through the works of Agostino di Duccio, Donatello, Michelangelo and other local sculptors. The aim is also to place within their social, devotional and intellectual context the different manifestations of feeling of which sculpture is one of the privileged media. Sacred art themes in particular were addressed, in an attempt to explain their formal evolution in relation to the socio-cultural transformations of the time, but also to local traditions and their dramatisation.
