Couverture souple. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. Edition originale. Aux limites de la couleur: monochromie et polychromie dans les arts (1300-1650) Author: Charron, Pascale ; Marion Boudon-Machue ; Maurice Brock (eds) Price: Euro 140,00.- ISBN: 9782503542225 Record created on 09/27/2011 Description: Turnhout: Brepols, 2012. 27cm., pbk., 235pp., 93 color illus. Summary: L¿histoire des couleurs dans le monde occidental au Moyen Âge et à la Renaissance a été nourrie par des travaux majeurs qui ont permis d¿en cerner de multiples aspects, depuis les pratiques techniques jusqu¿aux usages symboliques. En revanche, la question des rapports entre monochromie et polychromie dans les arts n¿a guère fait l¿objet que d¿études ponctuelles. Le volume se propose ainsi de traiter la question de la perception et du rôle de la couleur dans les ¿uvres d¿art en adoptant un spectre large, allant de la conception de l¿¿uvre à sa réception, de l¿analyse des gammes chromatiques réduites (grisaille, camaïeu, monochromie, bichromie¿) à l¿étude des rapports entre la monochromie et la polychromie. Les contributions couvrent les disciplines artistiques les plus diverses (peinture, sculpture, orfèvrerie, arts graphiques, textile¿) et s¿articulent autour de deux binômes : monochromie-bichromie, monochromie-polychromie.
