L’évolution récente des expositions temporaires sur le Moyen Âge en Italie: Public, thèmes, finalités

2011

The Italian case is compared with the other European countries and their own relationships with Middle Ages. The articles studies also the important changes in the cultural offer and in the museum function during the last decade of the twentieth century and analyses their major consequences on the exhibitions.

La iconografía en la era digital: hacia una heurística para el estudio del contenido de las imágenes medievales

2014

Este artículo invita a reflexionar sobre la validez de la iconografía como método para describir los temas representados en las obras artísticas medievales. En esta ocasión, se ha puesto un mayor énfasis en investigar sus implicaciones epistemológicas y los sesgos que resultan del proceso de transformar las imágenes en palabras. El objetivo principal es tratar de que aflore la llamada 'brecha semántica', una especie de barrera que impide representar verbalmente un medio no léxico, como es el visual, de manera satisfactoria y sin mermas. Tras un sucinto recorrido por el pensamiento griego, con un especial interés por la écfrasis, se sugiere que el aparente equilibrio entre las capacidades se…

THE OLIGARCH AND THE PAINTBRUSHES: A BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OF ANDREU GARCIA, PRIEST = EL OLIGARCA Y LOS PINCELES: BREVE SEMBLANZA DEL PRESBÍTERO ANDREU…

2014

The documents regarding the Valencian priest Andreu Garcia († November 1452) show a quite interesting character. Garcia’s family belonged to local oligarchy. Moreover, he had a substantial income related with the Cathedral. He had contact, too, with Carthusians, Observant Friars and probably with Beghards (the books of his library suggest this last idea). Garcia took part, as an intermediary or as a sponsor, in many artistic orders that involved the best workers and the best customers of the city. Besides, he had a strong relationship with painters like Simó Llobregat, Jaume Mateu, Gonçal Sarrià and Joan Reixac. The priest could also have practiced painting, judging by the belongings that w…

Dalla terra alla mensa attraverso l’arte, fra l’età romana e il Medioevo

2016

Con riferimento a esempi di diverse categorie d’arte – sculture, mosaici, dipinti, miniature – e a fonti letterarie, lo studio contestualizza alcuni aspetti legati all’alimentazione, dal mondo romano al Medioevo. In particolare, attraverso l’analisi di una serie di monumenti (per la parte romana provenienti soprattutto dal territorio nord-orientale della penisola italiana), si tenta di ripercorrere il rapporto tra l’uomo e il cibo intendendolo come un ciclo unitario, dalla ricerca e preparazione degli alimenti fino al loro consumo sulla mensa. Da ciò emerge che la rappresentazione del cibo raramente è fine a se stessa, ma rimanda invece a significati più pregnanti. With reference to example…

2022

Il frammento di mosaico, raffigurante uno degli angeli della teoria, che si trova sulle pareti della navata centrale all'interno della chiesa della Natività a Betlemme (Palestina), è datato intorno al XII secolo e riflette i canoni artistici dell'età Comnena.

Giotto’s legacy and western Sicily. The restoration of a late 14th century Maiestas Domini in the Basilica of San Francesco d’Assisi in Palermo, Italy

2022

Tra novembre 2019 e luglio 2020, l'intervento di restauro di un dipinto murale raffigurante la "Maiestas Domini", situato all'interno della Basilica di San Francesco d'Assisi a Palermo, è stato l'occasione per intraprendere un percorso di indagine tecnica e storico-artistica che ha approfondito lo stretto legame tra la Sicilia e le manifestazioni pittoriche "post-giottesche", con particolare attenzione alle opere d'arte su supporto murario e al ruolo svolto dall'iconografia all'interno della tradizione figurativa locale, tra eredità dell'arte normanna e influenze toscane e iberiche Between November 2019 and July 2020, the restoration of a mural painting depicting the "Maiestas Domini," loca…
