Hardback. Etat : New. Sculpture is just a word, an English word, which elicits an image in the mind's eye. Sculpture is a European idea. In China statues, stele and other figural objects were made for millennia but not valued or collected as Sculpture. There was no Sculpture in China. Imagining Sculpture is the story of this something that did not exist. Imagining Sculpture is a series of short vignettes, historical and fictional. Travelers, scholars, officials, collectors, and antiquarians encounter statues, figures, and effigies in China, Japan, England, Germany, France, Italy, and the United States from the fourteenth to the beginning of the twentieth century. Imagining Sculpture is visual, cinematic and sumptuous-told with rare photographs, paintings, sketches, letters and ephemera. With little text, the argument is made by the images. Imagining Sculpture offers a new kind of visual narrative and offers a radically different way of seeing and knowing.…

Note that this is a heavy and oversized book, so additional postage will be required for international or priority orders. ~AA~ [4.0P] This richly illustrated book explores the large body of sculpture, paintings, and other religious imagery produced for China's common classes from the third to the sixth centuries C.E. In contrast to the works made for imperial patrons, illustrious monastics, or other luminaries, these ordinary images-modest in scale, mass produced, and at times incomplete-were created for those of lesser standing. Because they cannot be related to well-known historical figures or social groups, these images have been considered a largely nebulous, undistinguished mass of works. Situating his study in the gaps between conventional categories such as Buddhism, Daoism, and Chinese popular art, Abe examines works?including some of the earliest known examples of Buddha-like images in China?that were commissioned by patrons of modest standing and produced by nameless artists and artisans. Sophisticated and lucidly written, Ordinary Images offers an unprecedented exploration of the lively and diverse nature of image making and popular practices. …

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Wenn im westlichen Kulturkreis von Skulptur die Rede ist, hat man sofort ein inneres Bild vor Augen. In China wurden dagegen jahrtausendelang Statuen, Stelen und andere figürliche Objekte gefertigt, ohne dass es dafür einen Begriff wie Skulptur gab. Imagining Sculpture erzählt die spannende Geschichte dieser Objekte zwischen Morgen- und Abendland.Imagining Sculpture nähert sich seinem Thema in einer Reihe von historischen Vignetten fiktionalen Charakters, sodass eine Bildererzählung vom 14. Jahrhundert bis ins beginnende 20. Jahrhundert entsteht. Die Protagonisten sind Reisende, Gelehrte, Sammler und Händler, ihre Begegnungen handeln von Statuen oder anderen plastischen, figürlichen Darstellungen. Der opulente Bildband wirft mittels seltener Fotografien, Gemälden, Skizzen, Briefen und anderer Memorabilien einen faszinierenden neuen Blick auf die Kunst der Skulptur. 400 pp. Englisch.…
