LA BEATISSIMA VERGINE DEL CARMINE – ICOANA MIRACULOASĂ A BISERICII CATOLICE DE PELERINAJ DE LA MARIA-RADNA

LA BEATISSIMA VERGINE DEL CARMINE – ICOANA MIRACULOASĂ A BISERICII CATOLICE DE PELERINAJ DE LA MARIA-RADNA

Author(s): Nicolae Sabău / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 1/2022

La Beatissima Vergine del Carmine ‒ l’icona miracolosa della Chiesa cattolica di pelegrinaggio di Maria-Radna. Il presente articolo rappresenta un intervento scientifico di un’incontro tra la ricerca storico-documentaria, iconologica e iconografica del tema. Lo studio delle “Sacre icone miracolose” della Transilvania, delle regioni di Maramureș, Bihor e Banat hanno fatto, e fanno parte del programma di ricerca dell’autore da più di cinque decenni, aggiungendosi alla richissima bibliografia riguardante le icone miracolose che si trovano nelle chiese della Moldavia e Muntenia, menzionati dal ricercatore di Cluj. Nel preambolo il lettore conoscerà la storia docu¬mentaria ma anche quella legendaria della fondazione del monastero francescano Maria-Radna iniziando dall’anno 1327, nell’epoca del re Carlo Roberto d’Angiò, la vita, i compimenti e le metamorfosi di questo monastero, le costruzioni successive, l’edificazione della capella nell’anno 1520, le distruzioni del periodo ottomano (1551), le ricostruzioni della Chiesa dovuti a fedeli generosi e la sua dotazione con l’icona della Vergine col Bambino, più precisamente, in conformità all’epigrafo dalla parte inferiore, LA BEATISSIMA VERGINE DEL CARMINE, meraviglioso dono dell’ anziano bosniaco Georg Viriĉonosa (Virchonossa) dell’anno 1668. Il momento che segna e nota il miracolo è l’anno 1695, quando la piccola chiesa fu saccheggiata e messa a fuoco, l’unico pezzo salvato dalle rovine e dalla cenere essendo l’icona della Madre di Dio. Questo momento legendario fu seguito da un’altra vicenda miracolosa cioè quella della punizione del visir profanatore della Chiesa quando il suo cavallo fu bloccato mentre un suo zoccolo fu intrappolato in un frammento di pietra (La traccia dello zoccolo). Il terzo atto dello scenario legendario racconta di un nuovo incendio della capella francescana dai turchi e il giudizio divino, quello d’indirizzare le fiammi distruttivi verso l’esercito ottomano oltre il fiume Mureș a Lipova. La notizia di questi fatti miracolosi si è diffusa con rapidità, da allora in poi i fedeli venendo in pelegrrinaggio, non solo dalle vicinanze, ma proprio da lontano per inchino e preghiera di fronte alla icona della Madre di Dio, l’icona miracolosa, responsabile per le guarigioni miracolose di pelegrini malatti, guarigioni che furono inscritti nel registro della chiesa iniziando col 1707. Di seguito la cronaca della chiesa nota lavori di ricostruzione tra (1722-1727), l’inizio della costruzione della nuova chiesa (24 giugno 1734), l’innalzamento dell’ala nordica e di sud-ovest del monastero (1743-1747), la collocazione della prima pietra di una basilica monumentale, il 7 giugno dell’anno 1756 nel giorno di Pentecoste, in presenza del gran Preposto del Capitulo cattedral di Cenad, che aveva la residenza a Timișoara, Clemente Rossi, del Consigliere originario di Banat Iacob Salbek e del superiore del monastero Ieronim Bocsin. Le costruzioni condotte da Karol Vogel saranno concluse nel 1767, anno in cui fu santificata la Chiesa dal Vescovo di Cenad, Anton Engel, in quale occasione fu collocata sull’altare principale l’icona La Beatissima Vergine del Carmine, placcata con ornamenti di argento, oro, perle e pietre preziose grazie al maestro viennese Joseph Moser. La meta del XIX secolo segna la fine del montaggio del mobilio liturgico formato da otto altari dedicati a santi protettori [ Il sacro cuore di Gesù e Il sacro cuore di Maria (1824); San Francesco d’Assisi (1805) e Sant’Ana (1822); Il fidanzamento della Vergine (1781), lavoro del pittore dell’Accademia regale ed Imperiale, Franz Wagenschőn; Sant’ Antonio da Padova (1762), creazione del maestro Ferdinand Schiestl autore anche della fresca del santuario; il Battesimo del Redentore (fine del XVIII secolo) e San Giovanni Nepomuk (1723)]. L’icona miracolosa della chiesa di Radna fu lavorata nell’officina Remondini di Bassano del Grappa, dopo la meta del XVII secolo, facendo parte di un ampia produzione d’incisioni religiose popolari richiesti dal mercato artistico del tempo. Il lavoro su carta delle dimensioni di 477 x 705 mm rappresenta nel campo centrale La Vergine Maria con il Gesù bambino in braccia (Hodighitria), in un’originale riunione iconografica dei modelli Elousa e Glykophilousa. La silografia nota il evidente collegamento del messaggio iconografico e iconologico con la storia del culto dell’abito liturgico (lo scapolare) dei testi liturgici medievali e premoderni come anche con l’immagine con la scena del registro inferiore, una rappresentazione visuale di quello “privilegio Sabatino”, più precisamente la promessa per quelli che indosseranno quello “scapolare” di essere liberati dal Purgatorio nel primo sabato dopo la loro morte (uno dopo l’altro gli angeli salvatori tirano fuori dal luogo avvolto dalle fiamme, le anime e i corpi che indossano lo scapolare). Tra i lavori di riferimento sul tema, per capire, intendere e per la storia dell’immagine, per l’iconografia tradizionale della Madonna “del Carmelo” ( oppure nella lingua spagnola “del Carmine”), per l’origine / la storia della festa, per le commemorazioni solenni, per la festa dell’abito dello “scapolare”, per la festa fuori dell’Ordine carmelitano e la festa nella Chiesa Universale, l’autore presenta in traduzione dalla lingua italiana, un testo inedito nella letteratura rumena specializzata, il libro di P. Albino del Bambino Gesù (OCD), Lo Scapolare della Madonna del Carmine, Ed. Ancora, Milano 1957. Una dettagliata analisi relativa alla composizione, iconografica fu fissata sui 14 ex-voto quali incorniciano l’icona La Beatissima Vergine del Carmine. Grazie alla moderna tecnica fotografica, attraverso l’amplificazione, attraverso l’aumento della loro dimensione, fu “letta” la storia e il racconto di questi miracoli. Sopra la Madre di Dio: 1. Molti dormendo colti sotto alla /ruina della casa nescono viui (Mentre dormivano sono colti sotto la rovina della casa,ma essi rimangono vivi). 2. Sommergendosi la naue, fa voto/ vn pesce ottura e si saluano (Mentre la nave sommerge, fa voto/, un pesce riempie la rottura e la nave si salva). 3. Vn putto stato 3. giorni nel fiume, / fa voto Pad(re) e Mad(re), e la pesca viuo. (Un bambino è rimasto per tre giorni nel fiume, facendo voto il padre e la madre lo pescano vivo). 4. Vno ferito grauemente, getato in/mare fa voto e si libera (Un ferito grave viene gettato nel mare, fa voto e si libera). 5. Vn figliuolo gettato in pozzo, eco/-perto di sassi dopo 8. die caua vivo (Un figlio gettato nel pozzo e coperto di pietre è trovato vivo dopo otto giorni). 6. L’an(no). 1050 (=1500) portandosi quest imag(ine)/. À Roma v(n) strop Risanato la segue (Nell’anno1050 (=1500) portando quest’immagine a Roma uno storpio guarisce). Nella parte destra della Madre di Dio (alla sinistra di chi guarda): 7. Da altiss(ima). Finestra vn fu-/giendo dall incendio d’une casa fa voto alla (Madonna), e si sal(vano). (Dall’altezza della finestra di una casa un fuggente da incendio fa voto alla Madonna e si salva). 8. Cadendo vno da vn altissi-/ ma pianta inuoca la Ma-/donna del Carmine, e non/ riceue male alcuno. (Cadendo uno da un alto albero, invoca la Madonna del Carmine e viene salvato dal male). 9. Vn ferito con 30 ferite a que-/B(eata). V(ergine) del Carmine/ricore e si risana (Un ferito con 30 ferite chiede aiuto alla Santa Vergine del Carmine e si riprende). 10. Essendo sententiato vno al-/la forcha viene dalla Beata/Vergine liberato. (Uno essendo condannato ad essere innalzato sul patibolo viene liberato dalla Santa Vergine). Nella parte sinistra della Madre di Dio (alla destra di chi guarda). 11. Carlo Cassa di Verona/ da Barbare gente in prigiona-/te fa voto e si libera. (Carlo Cassa di Verona fatto prigioniero dai Barbari s’inchina e viene rilasciato). 12. Vn cieco fa voto alla Glo-/riosa Maria del Carmine, e impetra il ve-/dere). (Un cieco s’inchina alla gloriosa Vergine Maria del Carmine e riprende la vista). 13. Vn padre Troua viuo il figlio./ chegli era stato da un nemi(-)co vciso e sepolto. (Un padre trova il suo figlio vivo quale fu ucciso e sepolto da un nemico). 14. Giostrando a vn principe,/ viene passata la coscia fa voto e si sana. (Nella giostra un principe viene traffito alla coscia, fa voto e si riprende.) La nostra ricerca dimostra il fatto che la xilografia della chiesa di Radna è una delle realizzazioni più elaborate della La Stamperia Remondini che produce tra gli anni 1657-1861. L’ affermazione si appoggia sul paragone con altre stampe che hanno rappresentazioni a questo tema, tra i quali una incisione”a bulino” ( 233x167 mm) dove la Madonna del Carmine è inquadrata da dieci scene che illustrano i miracoli di Santa Maria e una seconda variante dovuta alla stamperia Remondini, dell’anno 1830, una xilografia colorata con l’epigrafe” B. V. DEL CARMINE CO’MIRACOLI”, dove in quelli dieci scene che inquadrano il lavoro furono ripresi una parte delle sequenze miracolose dell’icona della Chiesa di Radna.

MAHMUD II E L’USO PROPAGANDISTICO DELLA PROPRIA IMMAGINE. IL CASO DELLA MINIATURA DI TORINO

MAHMUD II E L’USO PROPAGANDISTICO DELLA PROPRIA IMMAGINE. IL CASO DELLA MINIATURA DI TORINO

Author(s): Consuelo Emilj Malara / Language(s): Italian Issue: 1/2022

Mahmud II and the Propagandistic Use of His Own Image. The Case of the Torrino Miniature. The article, through the analysis of miniature depict Mahmud II by Luigi Gobbi, wants to demonstrate the political use by the Ottoman Sultan of his image in the form of a portrait. Assuming that the reforms promoted by Mahmud II marked a turning point in Ottoman society and that the consensus of the elites was essential for their implementation, this contribution aimed to shed light on how Mahmud II used his image to convey his reform program and achieve international consensus. Careful use of portrait combined with the formation of a modern diplomatic corps is the two points from which starts this reflection for an interpretative analysis of the Sultan’s miniature not only from a historical-artistic point of view but also of its diplomatic value. The miniature portrait thus becomes a historic testimony of the diplomatic relations between the Kingdom of Sardinia and the Ottoman Empire during Tanzimat.

The Motive of the Ram in the Architectural Decoration of the Christian Churches in Caucasus between the 10th - 14th Centuries

The Motive of the Ram in the Architectural Decoration of the Christian Churches in Caucasus between the 10th - 14th Centuries

Author(s): Ekaterina Endoltseva / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2021

The article deals with the motive of the ram’s head in the Christian art of Caucasus. The origins of iconography have been traced back to the ancient local archaeological cultures (Coban-Colchis) in Caucasus and in the Mediterranean region to the Neolithic period. This motif is among the most ancient sacral signs still in use in the traditional culture of the region. It appears on the façades of the Christian churches between the 10th -14th centuries due to the influence of the traditional culture. Represented on the façades of the churches, it has attained protective and apotropaic functions.

Women’s image and role in art: from Medieval virtuous mystics to today’s Advertising perverse figures

Women’s image and role in art: from Medieval virtuous mystics to today’s Advertising perverse figures

Author(s): Aida Furnică / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2021

For various historically documented reasons, women have always been considered a paradigm of either virtue or perversion. In this article, we focus firstly on the image of women as reflected in medieval illuminated manuscripts, where portrayals raged from mainly mystics in convents, saints, mothers, damsels in distress, labourers in the fields and even women of ill character. Apart from that, we mention the role of women as writers and illustrators of Manuscripts. Secondly, we have a brief look at modern western art, based on the heritage of medieval art, that carries on even further the stereotyped image of women, systematically objectifying them. Thirdly and finally, we examine how this has influenced today's advertising depictions of women, outlined with distinctive characteristics. The visual discourse emphasizes certain physical and moral traits based again on clichés, stressing mostly decadent passive attitudes and poses or submissive roles. The present research is quantitative and qualitative, based on case studies and referred in articles on Medieval Illuminated Art and Today's Advertising and Mass Media.

Şiir Herkesi Bağlar: “The Scholar Gipsy”deki Liminoid Stratejiler ve Metapoetik Dokunuşlar

Şiir Herkesi Bağlar: “The Scholar Gipsy”deki Liminoid Stratejiler ve Metapoetik Dokunuşlar

Author(s): Uğur Ergin Küçükboyacıa / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 04/2022

This study considers Matthew Arnold’s “The Scholar Gipsy” within the liminal-limioid theoretical grounds touched upon by Victor Turner and Friedrich Max Müller. The body of discussion focuses on the metapoetic aspect of the art of poetry in relation to liminal-liminoid projections featured within Arnold’s poem. The main argument is that liminal projections within the poem transform into a liminoid and metapoetic space where the essential core of the art of poetry itself is revealed as the product of a liminoid process. The figure of the scholar-gipsy who left Oxford hundreds of years ago and joined a gipsy tribe in pursuit of greater knowledge is animated by means of the speaker’s recalling the now-gipsy-scholar’s story in the poem. Such a summons becomes an eternal symbol of the kind of metapoetic relationship between the speaker and his liminoidly inspiring source. Metapoetic and liminoid connections are further layered with the inescepable presence of a timeless reader bound neither by space nor by time. Thus, boundaries between source-material, speaker, poet, the art of poetry, inspiration and the reader are stretched, where Arnold’s whole metapoetic-liminoid process binds all humanity together by means of the same poetic and re-creative liminoid play.

Conical Perspective and Fractal Theory: A Comparative and Contrastive Approach

Conical Perspective and Fractal Theory: A Comparative and Contrastive Approach

Author(s): Daniel Sofron / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2022

This paper explores a possible connection between Euclidean geometry, which lies at the basis of conical perspective, and fractal geometry, which could, in turn, generate a new system of spatial representation in art. Founded by Renaissance theorists and artists and applied exclusively to the visual arts as the only method of shaping the pictorial space for nearly five centuries, conical perspective has been increasingly questioned by modern artists. As a system of geometric relationships, conical perspective was based on the principles of Euclidean geometry. The new concepts of non-Euclidean geometry emerging in the second half of the 19th century have led to a change in the artists' perception of space, generating a quest for new ways of spatial representation. In the 1970s, Benoit Mandelbrot theorised a new type of geometry – fractal geometry – which subsequently became a second anti-Euclidean revolution that led to an unprecedented positioning of visual artists with regard to the expression of spatiality. From this point of view, fractal geometry can be seen as another system of visual representation of reality, alongside the already established ones.

CÉLÉBRATION DE DÉMÉTER ET DE CORÈ PÉRSEPHONE DANS LES COLONIES MILÉSIENNES DE LA PROPONTIDE ET DU PONT-EUXIN

CÉLÉBRATION DE DÉMÉTER ET DE CORÈ PÉRSEPHONE DANS LES COLONIES MILÉSIENNES DE LA PROPONTIDE ET DU PONT-EUXIN

Author(s): Remus Mihai Feraru / Language(s): French Issue: 32/2022

Studiul nostru are ca obiect sărbătorile consacrate Demetrei și Corei Persephona în coloniile milesiene situate pe coastele Propontidei și ale Pontului Euxin (Marea Neagră). Demetra și Cora Persephona ocupă un loc preeminent în panteoanele Miletului și ale coloniilor sale, unde cele două divinități feminine erau adorate într-o dublă ipostază: pe de o parte, ca divinități agrare ale fertilității pământului și abundenței roadelor (Demetra Thesmophoros și Karpophoros); pe de altă parte ca divinități chthoniene (mai ales Cora Persephona, care completa și sublinia esența chthoniană a Demetrei). Sărbătorile și ritualurile consacrate Demetrei și Corei Persephona sunt strâns legate de ipostazele sub care erau adorate cele două zeițe în coloniile milesiene. Numele lunii Kalamaion (iunie-iulie) atestată direct la Milet, Cyzic, Tyras, Olbia, Nymphaion și Hermonassa face referire la sărbătoarea Kalamaia („sărbătorile paiului”) celebrată în cinstea celor două divinități, la sfârșitul primăverii sau la începutul verii. Sărbătoarea Thesmophoria este atestată indirect la Apollonia Pontica și Pantikapaion. Thesmophoriile cuprindeau ritualuri de purificare, fertilitate și fecunditate al căror scop era de a garanta fertilitatea pământului, de a asigura germinația semințelor și de a produce o recoltă bogată. Sărbătoarea Thesmophoriilor a fost asociată cu misterele care constau dintr-un ansamblu de ceremonii și rutaluri de inițiere rezervate celor inițiați. La Cyzic, izvoarele literare și documentele epigrafice atestă sărbătoarea Soteria și concursul omonim celebrate în cinstea Corei Persephona. Misterele săvârșite cu ocazia sărbătorii Soteria sunt cele mai importante ritualuri din calendarul festiv cyzician.

Cultura și arta la începutul regimului Ceaușescu

Author(s): Ana-Maria Cătănuş / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 1-2/2004

On May 19, 1965 Nicolae Ceausescu, recently appointed First secretary of the party, was meeting with representatives of the literary and arts world, to tell them how he anticipated the development of art and culture. Without making any direct reference to the Dej epoch, Ceausescu hinted that he would maintain the liberal trend that had prevailed in the field of culture until he had come to power. Moreover, he proved willing to broaden the limits imposed in this sector. The concessions he announced could create the impression the regime was condoning a freedom of speech no one had hoped for before, yet the Communist leader made a point of what the party meant and how it expected the new line to be applied. The party’s offer - limited freedom of artistic creation - was sanctioned into an official directive on the occasion of the 4th Congress of the RWP (9th of the RCP).

BİR BAŞKALDIRI SİMGESİ OLARAK GÜLEN KADIN: ROXANA HALLS RESİMLERİNİN GRAFİK TASARIM BAĞLAMINDA İNCELENMESİ

Author(s): Itır Tokdemir Özüdoğru,Turgut Efe Varol / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 98/2022

The act of laughing occurs for different reasons and has different meanings. As it has different meanings, the reactions to the act of laughing also vary. Laughter theory is important to understand the logic of laughing. Laughing can turn into a method of relieving stress, or it can turn into an act of rebellion, which must be prevented in order to suppress societies and as a resultant opposition. In this article, the theory of laughter and the social and individual causality of laughter will be examined. In male-dominated societies, women’s laughter is tried to be put under social pressure as a problem. Roxana Halls, who paints about women and the act of laughing, is one of the important artists in this context. Roxana Halls seeks ways to break the transformation of social pressures internalized by women into a self-control mechanism and uses Helene Cixous’s concept of Feminine writing in the conceptual infrastructure of her works. The artist, who has painted the act of laughing in her paintings, which are mostly female portraits and female figures, visualizes the female revolt. The transformation of laughter into an act of rebellion in the context of post-structuralist feminist philosophy in connection with the fact that laughter is an action that needs to be controlled in oppressive and male-dominated societies, the liberation of women's body and its use as a method of self-expression with a critical style in Roxana Halls’artwork will be examined in the context of graphic design.

SINIRLI MEKÂNLARDA SINIRSIZ EYLEMLER: PIERRE BOURDIEU’NUN HABITUS KAVRAMI EKSENİNDE BEDENİN TEMSİLİ

Author(s): Yurdagül Kiliç Gündüz / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 99/2022

Body, which is a concrete appearance of artistic existence, became a target of the artistic creation in the 20th century, predominantly symbolized the representation of identity within the art practices of female artists and as a result of the action of the artist turned into a performance. In the post-modern age where art experienced a metamorphosis, the new art has now been based on thought, while the artist has begun to use his/her body as an object of art so as to pass the thought onto the receiver and to make enquiries on political, psychological, economic, sexual and social identity. Within this context, the leading names such as Shigeko Kubota, Marina Abramoviç Carolee Schneemann, Ana Mendieta, Gina Pane, Hannah Wilke, Chris Burden, Yoko Ono, Yves Klein, Orlan, Stelarc, Claude Cahun, Yasumasa Morimura, Barbara Kruger and David Nebreda have transformed their artistic discourses into a performance within the framework of subject-society. According to Pierre Bourdieu’s conceptual development habitus, body which is molded together with the society in which the individual resides cannot be dissociated from the society. Therefore, the individual forms the societal habitus along with the objective existence assimilated within his/her body. This research in this respect aims to analyze within the scope of Bordieu’s habitus concept the indication of the process aimed at the art and the artist, whose subject has been the human body throughout the history. The research sample has been chosen in accordance with the purposive sampling from among the avant-garde representatives of body and performance art in the world and evaluated in line with the bodily actions of these artists, society-body relationship and the manifesting indications.

KOSOVA CUMHURİYETİ’NDEKİ OSMANLI DÖNEMİ CAMİ ANA GİRİŞLERİNİN TESPİTİ VE DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİNE YÖNELİK BİR ARAŞTIRMA

Author(s): Buket İLTER ALPER / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 100/2022

Ottomans had left numerous valuable works of architecture on the lands within the borders of todays’ “Republic of Kosovo” in Balkans. Many of these works had either been destroyed or demolished, while some others could survive to the present day. This paper aims to introduce the main entrances of mosques from the Ottoman period (15th-20th centuries) in the cities of Prishtina, Prizren, Gjakova and Peja in the Republic of Kosovo. Our objective is to document and evaluate these entrances within the realm of portals in Ottoman art and architecture. Portals which are emphasized either with a frame or other decorative means on the facade have been selected and evaluated by means of their location on the facade, architectural form, material, ornamentation, and the elements they consist of. The courtyard or garden gates of the mosques are excluded from the scope of the research, only the main entrances providing access to the prayer halls have been considered within the scope of this study. Most of the portals at the mosques are located on the same surface with the façade and have a frame marked with profiles. The main entrances are considered modest in terms of the ornamentation program. The main decorative feature on the portal is the plastic effect of the profiles. Paper also aims to study these main entrances as artefacts produced in the periphery of the Ottoman Empire and compare them to Anatolian examples. In this context, portals in Kosovo are studied, whether they contain similar architectural elements as Anatolian examples, and how these elements evolved over time.

LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN’IN VİYOLONSELPİYANO SONATI FORMUNA KAZANDIRDIĞI YENİLİKLER

Author(s): Mehmet Semih KARLIDAĞ / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 100/2022

The main goal of this study is to create a source for researchers and interpreters who would perform Ludwig van Beethoven’s first written Violoncello-Piano sonata Op. No. 1 No. 5 and his last written violoncello-piano sonata Op. 102 No. 2. In this study, innovations which Beethoven brought to violoncello-piano sonata form are identified. Information is given concerning the life and works of Ludwig van Beethoven and the influences of Beethoven on the violoncello-piano sonata form are discussed. Beethoven's cello-piano sonatas have a very important place in both instrument repertoires. This importance is undoubtedly based on Beethoven's unique musical language and the revolutionary changes which he made in the sonata form. Violoncello-piano sonatas also had their share of these changes. The present study performs a historical and structural analysis of Beethoven’s Op.5 No. 1 and Op. 102 No. 2 Violoncello-Piano Sonatas, two masterpieces of the violoncello and piano repertoire, whose comparative approach in terms of the development of the sonata form represents a part the topical concern of this study. It has been concluded that Beethoven created a unique language in sonata form and these two sonatas exercised great influences on the sonata form with an understanding of pushing the limits of both instruments technically.

Because it is in constant change due to its interaction with the era it is in, art continues its creation as a reflection of social formations. The refugee crisis, which is one of the important problems of today, has become a global problem affecting all societies in many areas such as social, cultural, political, and economic. Therefore, the impact of the refugee crisis on current art creation has been inevitable. The current art, which is intertwined with every field of our daily life, creates opportunities for critical productions by addressing the problems of the age in a critical line. In this context, the effects of the refugee crisis on art have been examined through the works of artists from different geographies who have studied migration and refugee issues in the past and present.

ÇAĞDAŞ SANAT İLE MİNYATÜR’ÜN BULUŞMASI: SHAHZIA SIKANDER’İN SANATI

Author(s): Filiz Adıgüzel Toprak / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 101/2023

The starting point of this article is to discuss the orientation to a ‘new’ form for Westerners, which held the heritage of a different geography and culture – ‘miniature’, in the contemporary art scene focused on West and based upon Western values. 'Miniature' is a branch of book arts, one of the important branches of 'Islamic art', which is a problematic concept that Western art historiography classifies with its orientalist and reductive attitude. Today, 'miniature' is accepted as a term used and even featured in contemporary practices. It cannot be said that the tradition of miniature art and its production continue uninterruptedly in most of the Islamic countries. However, even though they were separated as different states since 1971, the strong cultural ties and traditional art production of South Asian countries have continued. In 1990s, Pakistani artist Shahzia Sikander, who completed traditional miniature education and used the language of contemporary art in her works, reunited the Western/'contemporary' with the traditional and Islamic 'miniature'. Within the scope of this paper, the meeting of 'contemporary' and 'miniature' was examined through Sikander's first miniature work and her selected subsequent artworks.

Author(s): Deniz ÇELİKER / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 101/2023

The motifs on weavings, which have an ancient history in Turkish culture, are a source for expressing beliefs, feelings and thoughts. The motifs, whose semantic sources come from elements such as mythology, religion, belief, rituals, have been transformed into a formal dimension on weavings by symbolizing tangible and / or intangible elements. Although some of the motifs we encounter in the weavings of many regions are formally the same, they can be called by different names in different regions of the same geography, and they can also represent opposite feelings, thoughts and beliefs. In the studies to be conducted on weavings, which are an important heritage of Turkish culture and handicrafts, it is necessary to take motif records as well as the technical features of the product. In addition, it is also important for the sustainability and recognition of cultural heritage to analyze and make sense of the indicator strings of local weavings, to read the messages that the composition features want to convey on the weaving examined and to transfer the codes to future generations. In this study, the implicit meanings of the motifs that enable the weavings to become an element of communication by getting rid of the task of sheltering and covering were tried to be read using semiotic analysis methods. Today, many branches of art are analyzed by utilizing semiotics theory and methods, the main purpose of which is to examine meaning and meaning formation. The motifs that make up the composition of the Kilim Prayer Rug selected as an example in the study are considered in two sections as the upper plan and the colors as the background, and all the signifiers in the foreground and background are subjected to reading together. The sample indicator, signifier, signified, sequential and syntactic analyzes were made, and it was tried to be explained with the contrasts of plain meaning and connotation.

LUDWİG VAN BEETHOVEN NO 3 OP. 69 LA MAJÖR PİYANO VE VİYOLONSEL SONATININ TEKNİK VE MÜZİKAL ANALİZİ

LUDWİG VAN BEETHOVEN NO 3 OP. 69 LA MAJÖR PİYANO VE VİYOLONSEL SONATININ TEKNİK VE MÜZİKAL ANALİZİ

Author(s): Buğra Kaan AYRANCI,Tanju Araboğlu / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 102/2023

Ludwig van Beethoven, the famous German pianist and composer of the Classical Period, who lived in Vienna between the years of 1770 and 1827, composed works for piano, chamber music, and orchestra during his 56 years of life and is considered one of the most important composers in music history. There are distinctly three main periods in Beethoven's creative career, the early, middle, and late periods. Beethoven, in the first period of his composing career, had the opportunity to work with his contemporaries, J. Haydn and W.A. Mozart, and was influenced by their creativity. The middle period which covers the years 1802-1813 is when Beethoven achieved his own composing style. Among the important works of this period are the Waldstein (Sonata in C major No. 21 Op. 53), the Appassionata (Sonata No. 23 in F Minor, Op. 57), Egmont and Corolian Overtures, his 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th symphonies and the one which will be the focus of this study: The Cello Sonata No. 3 in A major, Op. 69. This study aims to analyze Beethoven’s Sonata No. 3 in A Major, Op. 69 (Grande Sonate) with respect to its structural form, performance techniques and examine the manuscript and the examples of the first edition. The study also aims to be a source for performers and researchers who want to carry out a project related to the work.

Arta românească după 1960 reflectată în istorii ale artei orizontale

Arta românească după 1960 reflectată în istorii ale artei orizontale

Author(s): Maria Orosan-Telea / Language(s): English,Romanian Issue: 10/2022

The article compares three significant international books for the recovery of recent art history from Central-Eastern European countries, with Piotr Piotrowski, Klara Kemp-Welch and Maja and Reuben Fowkes as authors. The common point of these publications is related to the horizontal approach of art history, as it is theorized by Piotr Piotrowski. He proposed the application of a comparative methodology within the political-geographic construct called Eastern Europe. Therefore, the study follows the way in which Romanian art from the period 1960-2020 is presented and integrated, by each individual author, to this context.

Musical Thinking and Aesthetic Reception during Modernity: Between the Project of Searching after the Origins of Art and the Project of Transgressing Art Itself

Musical Thinking and Aesthetic Reception during Modernity: Between the Project of Searching after the Origins of Art and the Project of Transgressing Art Itself

Author(s): Andreea Stoicescu / Language(s): English Issue: 49/2022

My study is an attempt to philosophically account for the competing influence in the 20th century musical understanding and practice of two radical and opposed aesthetics: the ideal of transgressive art (defined by Anthony Julius) associated with the avant-garde and the ideal of recovering the original and authentic art associated with extreme nationalism. My thesis is that these perspectives, under their extreme formulations, are, in fact, kindred sides of the broader philosophy of Modernity as developed since the Enlightenment. Also, as a consequence, by deconstructing the historical meaning and justification of these aesthetic forms of radicalism, one can reinterpret the artistic profiles of personalities such as Arnold Schönberg, thought of either as a revolutionary who totally rebelled against the musical past (as Theodor W. Adorno considered), or as not revolutionary enough (as Pierre Boulez thought). My historical methodology is based on using the two key-terms, “originality” and “transgression”, as regulative concepts within the constellation (a concept proposed by Theodor Adorno in Negative Dialectics) of musical modernism. Thereby, I will show how these key-terms are connected to a network of other romantic concepts: organism, authenticity, aura (Walter Benjamin’s sense), integrity, folklore, and contemplation, in order to reveal how the structural and social meaning ascribed to this set of concepts greatly influenced the process of redefining musical thinking and musical reception. The main philosophies I will use as conceptual landmarks to clarify these interconnections are Martin Heidegger’s remarks about the work of art and Theodor Adorno’s critique of Heideggerian terminology and presuppositions. My overall conclusion will point towards the necessity of going beyond such radical modern oppositions with the aim of finding new types of theoretical principles and perspectives, more adequate as conceptual tools for dealing with contemporary artistic realities.

Motiv sjene u likovnom i književnom tekstu

Motiv sjene u likovnom i književnom tekstu

Author(s): Anđelko Mrkonjić / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 2/2012

This cultural study offers one of many possibilities of inter-textual and inter-medial reading of the shadow motif, the peripheral optical sensation, mainly through literary and visual art text. The shadow is a picture of changeable, fluctuating and surreal things; in the area of symbolist reading it is death, the otherworldly, all the way to the soul and the human being. The vastness in reading the meaning of this word will be focused towards the spirit of the Western culture (Plato, Christianity, Leonardo, avant-garde, contemporary), where it often has a negative attribute, but not exclusively. In an interpretative view, we mainly detect the incidence of the shadow paradigmatic of the following authors: An tun Gustav Matoš, Giorgio de Chirico, Goran Petercol. In Matoš’s poetical prose Sjena (“The Shadow”), the shadow is symbolistically repositioned within the old matrix of the source of light; Chirico’s metaphysical, extended and static shadow with the source of light somewhere on the far horizon; Petercol’s shadow (real, not illusionary) moves from the edge to the center of artistic questioning, opening up the question of the light source, reality and the status of the subject and the object. We conclude the study with a thought, in a Hegelian tone, about the end of art (by one paradigm), opening the question – has a real, living human being become a shadow in the grindstone of this unscrupulous neoliberal economy of the globalized world, when even the new paradigm of art doesn’t offer any answers (rejecting the work, introducing the event) and where does the future lead him, into whose shadow?
