Le ?« Temple de l'Homme ?» est un ensemble monumental dont Landowski developpe le projet tout au long de sa vie. Landowski veut raconter, en 200 metres de long sur 8 metres de haut (soit 1200 m?) de murs sculptes, l'histoire de l'humanite : un temple pour y chanter la grandeur de l'esprit humain ou tous les grands porteurs de lumiere sont assembles comme une symphonie des esprits (Carnets, inedit). Il doit etre a la fois un lieu de meditation, de reunions civiques, de congres internationaux, de spectacles. On y trouve egalement une bibliotheque et un cinema. L'inspiration du sculpteur est portee par sa conviction humaniste et sa volonte d'une Europe en paix. On y trouve l'influence de Romain Rolland et de Valery. Exposition au Petit Palais, 7 decembre 1999 - 5 mars 200. Livre est en bon etat.

Born in London in 1953 to a family of builders and artists, Richard Wilson creates works that often come closer to engineering or even architecture than to traditional sculpture. Typically he transforms the viewer's environment into something unsettling and strange through interventions that not only alter the physical space but also interfere with our perception of it. Perhaps his best-known work is <I>20:50</I>, currently on view at the Saatchi Gallery in London. A room is flooded with oil that has a highly reflective surface. Into the oil is built a kind of narrow pier down which one person can walk, the oil perilously close to their body. So reflective is the oil that the room induces a strong feeling of disorientation. In addition to such large-scale pieces, Wilson makes films and sculpture, takes photographs, and stages performance events. He has been a formative influence on a generation of younger artists. <BR><BR>This book is part of a Tate Publishing series focused on living artists. Generously illustrated, accessible, and affordable, the Modern Artists series will build to become an essential reference for all those interested in contemporary visual culture. <em>--This text refers to an alternate <a href='/dp/1854375709/ref=dp_bookdescription?_encoding=UTF8&n=283155'>Paperback</a> edition.</em> — Testi: Wilson Andrew, Cotter Suzanne et al.

Hardcover with dusjacket, 301 pages, Illustrated. index. ISBN 9780300063387. This lavishly illustrated book is the first to examine the development of Gothic sculpture throughout Europe. It discusses not only the most famous monuments?such as the cathedrals of Chartres, Amiens, and Reims, Westminster Abbey, and the Siena Duomo?but also less familiar buildings in France, England, Italy, Germany, Spain, and Scandinavia. Paul Williamson begins by setting the sculptures of the cathedrals in their social context. He then focuses on the working methods of the sculptors, illustrating the stages of making Gothic sculpture with a number of previously unpublished examples. Moving from country to country, Williamson traces the transition from Romanesque to Early Gothic style and then examines the flowering of "mature" Gothic in the early thirteenth century and in the less well-known sculptures of the last half of the thirteenth century. Throughout, he includes descriptions of wood sculpture, so often neglected by others, and he sheds new light on figures and reliefs in bronze and ivory.
Hardcover, 160 pages, English, 285 x 220 mm, Fine copy.!!, very richly illustrated with coloured illustrations,. ISBN 9781851773732. This title showcases the extensive collection of Netherlandish late Medieval sculpture at the Victoria and Albert Museum. The subjects range from statues of the Virgin and Child to narrative reliefs. Materials vary from alabaster and stone to woods such as oak, walnut and boxwood. All key sculptures are illustrated in colour and comparative photographs are included. Netherlandish Late Medieval sculpture has by comparison with contemporary painting remained little known. The V&A's collection contains notable examples from most of the major Netherlandish centres, including Antwerp, Brussels, Malines (Mechelen) and Utrecht, and the principal categories of sculptural production - the free-standing figure, the altarpiece and the small-scale devotional aid - are all represented. In this lavishly illustrated book more than 50 pieces have been selected to demonstrate the different uses to which sculpture was put in the seminal period from 1450 to 1550. Introductory essays place the sculptures in their historical, artistic and technical context, and new light is cast on the important collecting activities of the English from the early 19th century onwards.
