A Journey from Renaissance to Contemporary Art 🎨

✅ A Journey from Renaissance to Contemporary Art 🎨 explores diverse periods and ➕ themes related to Art 🎨 History. Four 4️⃣ essays bring new 🆕 perspectives to original subjects examining Renaissance Architecture with the Castle 🏰 of Madrid, Baroque Sculpture with Bernini, Contemporary Art 🎨 with the work ⚙️ of Michael Asher and ➕ Daniel Buren, and ➕ African Art 🎨 with Bodys Isek Kingelez. First 🥇, the Castle 🏰 of Madrid, unique for its facade covered 📔 by majolica, is analysed in the light 💡 of alchemical, gender oriented and ➕ architectural practice at the Court 🏛️ of Francis I. Second 🥈, admired for his 👤👨⬅️ sculptures in marble, Bernini is less celebrated for his 👤👨⬅️ portrait busts 👤 in bronze 🥉. Neglected by art 🎨 historians, a better understanding of the metal 🤘 is suggested. Third 🥉, the two 2️⃣ contemporary artists 👨‍🎨, Michael Asher and ➕ Daniel Buren, are often amalgamated, assimilated with the institutional critique movement. Their artistic 👨‍🎨 individuality is restored by a comparison of their respective approach and ➕ oeuvre. Finally, Bodys Isek Kingelezs imaginary cities have been perceived as visionary and ➕ raw. By taking into account Kinshasa post 🏤 colonial architecture, a more realistic view of Kingelezs oeuvre is revealed.
