Andre Volten: Sculpture in Public Space/Sculpture in $5.69 In the past half-century there has been no more frequent and ardent defender of the significance of public sculpture than Andre Volten — whose innumerable pieces in and out of the Netherlands have made a consistent case for the place of sculpture in the public domain. The integration of art, architecture and environment manifested in Volten’s 50-year body of work is an inspiration to the public arts today, showing as it does how architecture and art can strengthen a space by complementing and responding to one another. Andre Volten: Sculpture in Public Space, the first comprehensive survey of the artist’s work, features numerous beautiful reproductions of his work. In addition, it examines a variety of subjects, including Volten’s stylistic development over the years, his place in Dutch and international sculpture and his relationship to the constructivist tradition, and his influence on such American artists as Donald Judd, Richard Serra, and Barnett Newman. |

Baroque Sculpture in Rome $10.09 Reconsidering the terminology art historians use to describe 17th-century Roman sculpture, this history examines how famous artists, such as Bernini, Alessandro Algardi, Frangois Duquesnoy, and lesser-known artists influenced one another during this period.

The use of Venetian-derived color, sublime accents, and travertine and marble that marked this era created a thoroughly modern Rome as statues and other examples of sculpture were placed in gardens, homes, and churches. |

Greek Sculpture with Story and Song $31.86 Originally published in 1898, PREFACE: The object of my book is twofold; to awaken in boys and girls an interest in Greek Sculpture, and to provide for older people possessing some superficial knowledge, and desiring to widen it, a convenient companion when examining Galleries of Casts. For the most part, therefore, only such sculptures are included in the work as are found in collections of this kind, or in the British Museum. The book differs from other works on Sculpture of the same size in various ways. In the first place it is not a handbook for scholars by a professed Archaeologist, but contains, besides an account of the Rise and Decline of Greek Sculpture, brief mythological sketches of the chief Gods and Heroes for the benefit of those who are unacquainted with or have forgotten the myths and legends which inspired the Greek artists…… Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900′’s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.

Italian Baroque Sculpture $9.19 Italian baroque sculpture often has been criticized for portraying a sham world, distracting the spectator from its spiritual poverty by dazzling technical displays. Bruce Boucher offers a fresh view of this rich and varied subject, published to coincide with the 400th anniversary of the births of 17th-century artists Bernini and Algardi. 200 illustrations. 35 in color.The sculptural flowering of the Italian Baroque – the sensuous beauty of Bernini’s Apollo and Daphne; the spectacular papal tombs in St. Peter’s; dramatic altarpieces such as the mystical Ecstasy of St. Teresa; and Rome’s dazzling fountains – boldly transcended the traditional limitations of artistic media. Often dismissed in the past for creating a sham world to distract the observer’s attention with dazzling technical displays, the sculpture of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Italy is here reassessed for the first time in more than a generation. Published to coincide with the fourth centenary of the births of Bernini and Algardi, the greatest of Baroque sculptors, Bruce Boucher’s book provides an invaluable critical survey of Italian Baroque sculpture. |

Collecting Sculpture in Early Modern Europe $52.85 Among the precursors of today’s public museums, perhaps the most important are collections of sculpture formed in the early modern era by royal families, aristocratic amateurs, and artists. In this, the first book to survey the practice of collecting sculpture from late medieval times to the 19th century, twenty renowned scholars explore the collections of eminent artists and great princes throughout Europe. The case studies examine acquisition methods and the value that collectors placed on sculpture–coins, reliefs, busts, and statues–for opulent interior decoration and outdoor display or for use as studio models. A wide range of topics is explored, including the appeal of antiquities, the Medici ivory collection, and the business of supplying garden statues in Northern Europe, as well as ways of displaying sculpture and the meanings it had when placed on the facade of a villa or in a palace garden. Together the essays allow a comparative reading of European sculpture collections and the motives underlying their formation. |
