Hilma af Klint : catalogue raisonné / by Almqvist, Kurt,editor.(CARDINAL)818083; Birnbaum, Daniel,1963-editor.(CARDINAL)291651; Klint, Hilma af,1862-1944.Works.; Axel och Margaret Ax:son Johnsons stiftelse,sponsor.(CARDINAL)866717;

Includes bibliographical references."This third volume of the artist's catalogue raisonné collects sketches made in preparation for af Klint's masterwork 'The Paintings for the Temple.' Hilma af Klint rarely exhibited her work during her lifetime, and her magnum opus, The Paintings for the Temple, was shown to the public in the series of exhibitions that started in 2013 at Moderna Museet in Stockholm and ended with the grand exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum in New York in 2018-19. This series of 193 paintings began with af Klint receiving communication from an otherworldly figure during a séance. Specific themes, such as evolution and duality, are conveyed through vivid pastel color schemes and intricate geometric patterns arranged carefully on canvases that reach over ten feet in height. This volume, the third in the artist's first seven-part catalogue raisonné, contains the sketches and preparatory work af Klint made in anticipation of The Paintings for the Temple. af Klint traveled with these sketchbooks so as to be able to show her friends her work in a more accessible format"--Erasmus Boekhandel.The second installment in an epic and authoritative seven-volume Hilma af Klint catalogue raisonné: the pioneering abstractionist's beloved 'The Paintings for the Temple' series. Between 1906 and 1915, Hilma af Klint (1862-1944) created 193 paintings that she would title The Paintings for the Temple. Colorful, mostly abstract, with biomorphic imagery, these works expressed af Klint's mediumistic vision of spiritual reality, which she hoped would ultimately be installed in a round temple for true spiritual comprehension and enlightenment. Since the internationally acclaimed Guggenheim exhibition of 2018-19, these works have come to number among her most popular, defining and beloved. This handsomely produced clothbound volume collects these paintings in the second of a projected and collectible seven-volume catalogue raisonné that will present the entirety of af Klint's work in its dazzling totality for the first time. Produced in cooperation with the Axel and Margaret Ax:son Johnson Foundation, it features introductions by Daniel Birnbaum, former head of Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Sweden, and architect of the grand af Klint exhibitions between 2013 and 2019, and Kurt Almqvist, President of the Axel and Margaret Ax:son Johnson Foundation for Public Benefit.

The Flemish primitives : the masterpieces : Robert Campin (Master of Flémalle), Jan van Eyck, Rogier van der Weyden, Petrus Christus, Dierec Bouts, Hugo van der Goes, Hans Memling, Gerard David / by Vos, Dirk de.(CARDINAL)208416;

Includes bibliographical references (pages 213-216).Preface -- In the light of reality -- Robert Campin (the Master of Flémalle) : The Flémalle panels ; The Mérode triptych -- Jan van Eyck : The Ghent altarpiece ; The man in a red chaperon ; Giovanni Arnolfini and his wife ; The Madonna with Canon van der Paele -- Rogier van der Weyden : The descent from the cross ; Triptych with the adoration of the Magi (Columba altarpiece) ; Portrait of Anthony of Burgundy ; Diptych of the crucifixion -- Petrus Christus : The nativity -- Dieric Bouts : Triptych with the martyrdom of St. Erasmus ; Altarpiece with the Last Supper -- Hugo van der Goes : The adoration of the Magi (Monforte altarpiece) ; The death of the Virgin ; The Portinari triptych -- Hans Memling : The Last Judgement ; The St. John altarpiece ; Diptych of Maarten van Nieuwenhove -- Gerard David : The judgement of Cambyses."Intensely realistic, piercingly beautiful, the art of the Flemish Primitives inspires powerful emotional responses. Painted during the fifteenth century, in the southern Netherlands, these influential and enduring works helped establish the foundations of modern European painting. Sumptuously illustrated with more than two hundred color reproductions, including many newly photographed details, this gorgeous book showcases the art of these master painters of the Northern Renaissance. It focuses on thoughtfully selected major works by the most important of the artists who were later--and rather misleadingly--dubbed the Flemish Primitives: Robert Campin (the Master of Flélle), Jan van Eyck, Rogier van der Weyden, Petrus Christus, Dieric Bouts, Hugo van der Goes, Hans Memling, and Gerard David. Working at the hub and heart of the Burgundian realm, these artists ushered in the triumph of realism. Their new system of painting in transparent layers yielded colors of a saturation and depth never before seen and imbued their sensual human forms with a stunning luminosity. They developed new symbolic associations, experimented with light, and expressed the cultural changes taking place around them, including a heightened spirituality and the emergence of a wealthy bourgeoisie."--Publisher's description.

Bowlby, an eminent British psychologist, forges well past other biographies by showing Darwin not only in his work as a naturalist, but also as a figure in a small but distinguished circle of intellectuals. He follows the drama of Darwin's discoveries in the Galapagos Islands and Australia and the painful years that followed in virtual isolation at Down House where Darwin wrote the books that ignited controversies persisting to this day. He places Darwin's brilliant unfolding of evolutionary biology within a vivid portrait of Victorian society, a world in ferment during the years in which the foundations of modern biological science were formed. Darwin was considered by friends, colleagues, and family a thoroughly pleasant person and a charming and dignified companion. His outer serenity, however, masked a deep struggle. Throughout his life, Darwin was plagued by, in his own words, "vomiting...shivering, dying sensations, ringing in ears," as well as heart palpitations, blurred vision, and hysterical crying fits. Darwin's illness has baffled historians and spawned endless speculation as to its cause. John Bowlby here convincingly aruges that Darwin's chronic illness was the result of repressed emotions generated by his mother's death. "My mother died in July 1817," wrote Charles Darwin in his autobiography, "when I was a little over eight years old, and it is odd that I can hardly remember anything about her." Drawing on his groundbreaking research into the effects of a parent's death on the child's later development, Bowlby identifies the loss of Darwin's mother as the root of the illness that often deliberated the great scientist and disrupted his revolutionary work. As Bowlby points out, Darwin's suppressed grief over the loss of his mother is most astonishingly revelaed in a letter written by him to a cousin whose young wife had died: "Never in my life having lost one near relation, I daresay I cannot imagine how severe grief such as yours must be." Darwin's illness was not incidental to the life and work of the man. Darwin was obsessed with his health and with the health of his children. He was wracked with guilt for passing along to his children his "wretched stomach," particularly when his eldest daughter Annie, died of "a smart bilious gastric fever." And yet, somehow, between bouts of illness that rendered him a semi-invalid, Darwin set forth, in Origin of Species and The Descent of Man, his theories that would turn the scientific world upside down. In this sympathetic and personal biography, John Bowlby lays bare the very real and vulnerable side of a great man. -- from dust jacket.
