Albrecht Drer and the Venetian Renaissance

Katherine Crawford-Luber; Albrecht Durer

Synopsis:
Albrecht Durer and the Venetian Renaissance examines twenty-five paintings by the German artist in an effort to reevaluate his relationship to contemporary Italian art and his status as a painter. Luber explains how Durer appropriated Venetian techniques and suggests that the artist was engaged in the exploration of an atmospheric, coloristic perspective. This exploration, Luber argues, unifies Durer's work and necessitates a reassessment of the critical partition of his painted and graphic work.
