Book Description gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -Das Motiv des (Glücks-) Spieles und Spielens ist in der Geschichte der Bildenden Kunst - ganz im Gegensatz zur Literatur - eher selten anzutreffen. Bis gegen Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts galt die Darstellung des Menschen bei dieser »niederen« Tätigkeit offiziell als nicht erwünscht. Später wurde der »homo ludens« auch in den bildlichen Darstellungen gern gesehen. Hier steht nun die russische Kunst dieses Motivs im Fokus: Kunst und Kunsthandwerk aus allen Gegenden und Zeiten ist zusammengetragen worden, um die Begeisterung und Leidenschaft des russischen Volkes für das Spiel aufzubereiten. Ein umfangreicher Abbildungsteil illustriert die Thematik auf das Schönste! (Text englisch) 357 pp. Englisch. Seller Inventory # 627747

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. People have always played games, suffering the agony of defeat and the delight of victory. However, ethics and aesthetics of eighteenth century enlightenment forbade artists from depicting low or ignoble actions and passions. Since then, Russian artists have played with games and passion in every sort of art form, from sculpture and painting through to film and performance. The pictures, drawings, watercolours, engravings and works of decorative and applied art dedicated to human passions - games included - are usually lost amid the general picture of an artist's creative heritage. Unlike literature, in which special works of research are often dedicated to the theme of play, never before have motifs been the object of study or special attention in the history of Russian fine art. The exhibition and this accompanying album was the first attempt ever to bring together all the uncoordinated material of various eras and forms of art. Drawing on the museums, libraries and archives of St Petersburg, works have been brought together to illustrate the theme of play and passion in Russian fine art. Games depicted include chess, riulette, billiards and cards. Presents biographies of the artists featured.
