Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "Since the earliest myths of the sculptor Pygmalion bringing a statue to life through desire, artists have explored the boundaries between sculpture and the physical materiality of the body. This groundbreaking volume examines key sculptural works from 13th-century Europe to the global present, revealing new insights into the strategies artists deploy to blur the distinction between art and life. Sculpture, which has historically taken the human figure as its subject, is presented here in myriad manifestations created by artists ranging from Donatello and Degas to Picasso, Kiki Smith, and Jeff Koons. Featuring works created in traditional media such as wood and marble as well as the unexpected such as wax, metal, and blood, Like Life presents sculpture both conventional and shocking, including effigies, dolls, mannequins, automata, waxworks, and anatomical models. Containing texts by art and cultural historians as well as interviews with contemporary artists, this is a provocative exploration of three-dimensional representations of the human body." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Embodied Histories, by Sheena Wagstaff; Polychrome and Its Discontents: A History, by Luke Syson; No Dead Matter, by Marina Warner; Double or Nothing, by Hillel Schwartz; Material Histories.

The catalogue from the exhibition of September to December 2013. The exhibition the first on the artist outside of his native France assembled forty-eight works by David on paper and in wax, terracotta, marble, bronze, and plaster, as well as rare nineteenth-century reproductions of his work in photographs and engravings. The depth and variety of David's oeuvre was well represented, beginning with his early prize-winning tête d'expression bust La Douleur and concluding with some of the last medallions he made, such as his portrayal of French painter Rosa Bonheur. Drawn largely from North American collections, many of these objects had never before been exhibited. The catalogue includes essays by Emerson Bowyer and Jacques de Cas, as well as the first English-language translation of a short story written by David d'Angers in 1849.

Hardcover. Condizione: VG+: As new in shrinkwrap. Grey and black boards with white lettering; 279 pp.; richly illustrated, chiefly in color. "Antonio Canova (1757-1822) established himself as a preeminent artist of the neoclassical age with his funerary monuments and carved marbles on classical themes. Although his idealized and sensual sculptures are widely known, this is the first book devoted entirely to the clay models that he made in preparation for his marble sculptures. Only sixty-five of his terracotta models survive today. Modern in their boldness, the models retain the touch of the artist's hand and yield a glimpse into Canova's imaginative and technical process. The authors examine Canova's techniques for making terracotta models, including how he used clay to develop full-scale models that his assistants copied in marble, and his practice of gifting his models to friends." -- Chicago Public Library website.…
