Artes: aspectos generales



PICASSO. LA MONOGRAPHIE (BERNADAC, MARIE-LAURE/LÉAL, BRIGITTE/PIOT, CHRISTINE)
In this book three recognised authorities on the life and work of Picasso conduct a profound study of the artistic career and personal itinerary of one of the great geniuses of the 20th century. The book consists of twelve chapters divided into three periods: in the first, 1881-1916, Brigitte Léal describes and analyses Picasso’s life and oeuvre from his initial experiences and formative years to his move to Paris in 1901, where he would start his Cubist experiments. In the second period, 1917-1952, Christine Piot continues the narrative of events and analysis to the artist’s output, as well as describing those events which most influenced his constant evolution. Finally, the third period, between 1953 and 1973, is described along the same lines as the previous two by Marie-Laure Bernadac.

LA REAL ACADEMIA DE BELLAS ARTES DE SAN CARLOS EN LA VALENCIA ILUSTRADA
La Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Carlos de Valencia se pudo desarrollar gracias a que el proyecto encontró en la Corte un grupo de valencianos que podía influir en el gobierno y que lo apoyó. Algunos detalles previos a la fundación, así como la evolución que algunas disciplinas tuvieron gracias a la nueva institución, se analizan de manera pormenorizada en este volumen. Este libro recoge las conferencias realizadas en el Museu Valencià de la Il·lustració i la Modernitat (MuVIM) a finales de marzo de 2007, con motivo de la conmemoración del 250 aniversario de la creación de la Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Carlos de Valencia. Coordinado por el profesor Romà de la Calle, sus páginas nos hablan del nacimiento y posterior evolución de esta histórica y relevante institución valenciana.

FUNDACI? JOAN MIR?. GU?A . GUÍA DE LA FUNDACIÓN (VV AA)
El aspecto más importante de las colecciones que alberga la Fundación Miró es, sin lugar a dudas, la cantidad de obras que aloja, más de 14.000. En su mayor parte fueron donadas a la Fundación por el propio Joan Miró. El resto de piezas proviene de colecciones que eran propiedad de Pilar Juncosa, la esposa del artista, y de Joan Prats, su amigo personal y también la persona que tuvo la idea de poner en marcha la Fundación. La Fundación posee una amplia colección de pinturas de todos los períodos de la vida de Miró. Los trabajos que se exponen muestran el desarrollo de su arte: desde su aprendizaje en Barcelona y sus primeros contactos con las vanguardias a principios del siglo XX hasta la época que pasó en París y sus lazos con los surrealistas. El arte de Miró en los últimos años de su vida se expresaba principalmente en pinturas de gran formato y denota un interés más profundo en el color puro y en los gestos, pero sin abandonar su lirismo y su rigor en la composición. Es precisamente durante esta etapa cuando mejor se encuentra representado aquí, pues donó a la Fundación los trabajos que tenía en su estudio cuando ésta se puso en marcha. Esta guía es la mejor herramienta para abarcar las obras más importantes de las colecciones de la Fundación.
