Hardback. Condition: New. The 300th birthday of Empress Maria Theresia provides an opportunity to examine her outstanding interest in the fine arts. At the invitation of the reforming monarch a large number of painters, sculptors and other artists in Austria and abroad found a wealth of work opportunities. Correspondingly, this era has left its mark on the countries of the former Habsburg monarchy to this day. Maria Theresia pursued an individual approach with regard to cultural policy. She was interested in reform not only in education, but also in the field of art. She commissioned contemporary artists and helped portrait painting to a new upswing, leading not least to the international consolidation of the newly formed House of Habsburg-Lorraine. This was the function also fulfilled by the allegorical paintings and ceiling frescoes for which impressive cartoons have survived. Landscape painting was highly esteemed, and finally outstanding masterpieces were produced in sculpture and three-dimensional works, for example by Balthasar Ferdinand Moll and Franz Xaver Messerschmidt.

Hardcover. Condition: Wie neu. 1. Auflage. Gebunden, Gr.4°, New, sealed, originaleingeschweißt, First Edition, 158 S., mit 110 Farbabb. -Das Künstlerduo Gil & Moti lebt und arbeitet seit 1994 zusammen. Ihre Entscheidung, das Leben als permanente Performance anzusehen und Kunst als Lebensform zu verstehen, prägt alle Bereiche des Oeuvres: Malerei, Zeichnung, Installation, Video und Fotografie. Mit ihrer Kunst eignen sie sich den öffentlichen Raum an und erforschen seine Auswirkungen auf zwischenmenschliche Beziehungen. Die Analyse der Relation zwischen Privatleben und Öffentlichkeit greift die aktuellen Debatten über Anderssein und Regeln des Zusammenlebens auf und hinterfragt unsere Haltung zu nationaler, religiöser, geschlechtlicher und gesellschaftlicher Identität auf spielerische Weise. Sechs ihrer wichtigsten Projekte aus den letzten zehn Jahren erzählen Geschichten im Spannungsverhältnis zwischen Realität und Fantasie in profanen bis hochartifiziellen Bildern. Geboren als jüdische Israelis, leben Gil & Moti heute in den Niederlanden. / The artist duo Gil & Moti have been living and working together since 1994. Their decision to regard life as a permanent performance, and to understand art as a form of life influences all areas of their oeuvre: painting, drawing, installation, video, and photography. With their art, they appropriate public space and investigate its effects on interpersonal relationships. Their analysis of the relation between private and public life delves into current dialogue around being different and the rules of social living and playfully questions our identities, be they national, religious, gender or societal. Six of their most important projects from the last ten years tell stories that walk the tightrope between reality and fantasy through images that range from the profane to the highly artificial. Born Jewish Israelis, Gil and Moti now live in Holland.- auf Englisch und Deutsch, 1100g, SOFORT LIEFERBAR.
