Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. John Ruskin was an influential English art critic and social thinker of the Victorian era, who famously argued that the principal concern of the artist is "truth to nature." For Ruskin, this truth entailed more than merely adept technical representation: artists should, in fact, depict the natural world as mankind experiences it, with all the sensations of both beauty and terror it elicits.Today, in a world overwhelmed by industrial development and environmental uncertainty, contemporary artists are discovering new beauties and terrors associated with nature, invoking a sense of the sublime that is uniquely modern. "Landscapes after Ruskin" explores how a joyful experience of nature is now mixed with a particular dread, as the earth and its atmosphere are increasingly touched by human activity. This striking volume probes the contemporary sites of the new sublime-from a steel factory couched in a nature park to the aerial view of a bombed city, and from mutating chromosomes to construction sites in suburbia-through essays by artists, photographers, and art historians, as well as experts in environmental studies and philosophy. Featuring more than fifty awe-inspiring artworks, "Landscapes after Ruskin" offers compelling-and chilling-insight into the truth of the natural world today.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -In der Nachfolge des britischen Sozialphilosophen und Malers John Ruskin, der bereits im 19. Jahrhundert in der zunehmenden Industrialisierung die Gefahr einer Verkümmerung sowohl menschlicher Tugenden als auch künstlerischer Schaffenskraft sah, haben sich 52 zeitgenössische Künstler zusammengefunden, um angesichts der Zerstörung der Natur deren Schönheit und Schrecken neu zu benennen.Videokünstler, Fotografen, Bildhauer, Maler, Schriftsteller und Philosophen unternehmen in diesem reich bebilderten Band den Versuch, mit 68 unterschiedlichen Kunstwerken den Blick auf die Naturschönheit neu zu definieren und damit eine ganz eigene Ästhetik zu schaffen. In ihre Betrachtung der ausgebeuteten, gequälten und vergifteten Erde beziehen sie auch die grandiosen und nach wie vor existierenden Naturwunder mit ein. Diese ambivalente Sicht auf Landschaften und Städteansichten ist verwirrend und gleichzeitig faszinierend, jedoch konsequent, wenn man den Worten Ruskins folgt, dass die Hauptverantwortung des Künstlers, die »Wahrheit zur Natur« ist.Mit Werken von:Georg Baselitz, Joseph Beuys, Christo, Mary Corse, Gustave Courbet, Eric Fischl, Andreas Gursky, Anselm Kiefer, Bruce Nauman, Raymond Pettibon, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Ai Weiwei, und anderen. 160 pp. Englisch.
