Bndicte savoy (198 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. A major new history of how African nations, starting in the 1960s, sought to reclaim the art looted by Western colonial powers For decades, African nations have fought for the return of countless works of art stolen during the colonial era and placed in Western museums. In Africa?s Struggle for Its Art, Bénédicte Savoy brings to light this largely unknown but deeply important history. One of the world?s foremost experts on restitution and cultural heritage, Savoy investigates extensive, previously unpublished sources to reveal that the roots of the struggle extend much further back than prominent recent debates indicate, and that these efforts were covered up by myriad opponents.Shortly after 1960, when eighteen former colonies in Africa gained independence, a movement to pursue repatriation was spearheaded by African intellectual and political classes. Savoy looks at pivotal events, including the watershed speech delivered at the UN General Assembly by Zaire?s president, Mobutu Sese Seko, which started the debate regarding restitution of colonial-era assets and resulted in the first UN resolution on the subject. She examines how German museums tried to withhold information about their inventory and how the British Parliament failed to pass a proposed amendment to the British Museum Act, which protected the country's collections. Savoy concludes in the mid-1980s, when African nations enacted the first laws focusing on the protection of their cultural heritage.Making the case for why restitution is essential to any future relationship between African countries and the West, Africa?s Struggle for Its Art will shape conversations around these crucial issues for years to come.…

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The Allgemeines Kuenstlerlexikon (AKL), [Artists of the World], is the successor to the traditional Thieme-Becker and Vollmer standard reference works on art history. It has been published since 1991. Long a standard work in its own right, the AKL is intentionally not limited to the "grand masters", but includes artists from all over the world and throughout the ages from antiquity to the present. It not only contains painters, sculptors and graphic designers, but gives equal weight to architects, designers, photographers, calligraphers, craftsmen and many other artistic professions. Around 1,500 artist biographies are contained in each volume. An index arranged according to country and artistic profession follows every tenth volume. According to the updated schedule for the AKL, the print edition will be completed in 2022. In the meantime, the proportion of articles published exclusively online will continually increase. The first volumes of the AKL were compiled from 1969 onwards. This period of almost four decades is now being covered in supplementary volumes, the first of which was published in 2005, for the letter A. The fifth supplementary volume (Cassini - Czwartos) was published in 2012. Every entry offers the following clearly structured information: The name of the artist, including all variations of the name by which he or she was known. Pseudonyms, maiden names, or names previously wrongly attributed are deciphered. Respective cross-references to the main entry are included. Dates of birth and death of the artist and characteristics of the works and entire artistic oeuvre Information regarding the influence of this artist on his or her cultural environment A selection of the artist's works with their locations A selection of exhibitions on the artist Detailed lists of the artist's autobiographical writings and other writings An extensive bibliography. Also cross-references to entries in other reference works, unprinted source material and catalogues A signature of the article's author (or editor) at the end of every entry Since January 2010, we are offering a combined print + online annual subscription. For more information, please Das Allgemeine Kuenstlerlexikon (AKL) bietet in jedem Band rund 1.000 Biographien bildender Kuenstler aus aller Welt und allen Zeiten, von der Antike bis zur Gegenwart. Enthalten sind nicht nur Maler, Bildhauer oder Architekten, sondern auchDesigner, Fotografen, Kunsthandwerker, Installationskuenstler u.v.m.
