Maison Particulière. Graphic Reading and Virtual Reconstruction
2021
De Stijl, a modern and avant-garde movement of the early twentieth century, is considered the link between the pre-1914 avant-garde and the post-1918 International Style. The name derives from the magazine founded in 1917 and used for the promotion of the ideals ofNeoplasticism, theorised by Theo VanDoesburg. In 1924 Van Doesburg published the essay Tot een beeldende architectuur in which he explained a 16 points manifesto on the neoplastic vision of modern architecture. The analysis of the drawings and contra-constructions and the comparative reading of all the original drawings allowed for a series of graphic interpretations, which made the project understandable. This interpretative-reco…

Mapping Art History in the Digital Era
2021
Just as for the rest of the humanities, a roadmap for the discipline of art history in the past few decades would show a tangle of unexpected turns. Art history has undergone the linguistic turn, the material turn, the pictorial turn, the global turn, and, of course, the spatial turn, to name a few; what is more, there is the discipline's recent convergence with digital technologies. Already in 2004, while reviewing two recent contributions to the field, Larry Silver could assert in The Art Bulletin that "art is created as much in place as in time, making some self-aware form of artistic geography essential to the future of the discipline."1 Much more recently, Paul Jaskot hailed spatial an…
Reflexiones sobre el pintor Lluís Dalmau a propósito de un retablo para Molins de Rei (1451)
2018
El presente texto plantea una serie de reflexiones sobre la figura del pintor Lluís Dalmau, uno de los introductores de la pintura gótica flamenca en la Corona de Aragón. El análisis surge a partir de la presentación de un nuevo documento inédito sobre un retablo contratado en 1451 por Isabel de Requesens, esposa del gobernador de Cataluña, Galceran de Requesens, para la baronía de Molins de Rei (Barcelona). El documento sitúa al pintor realizando este encargo en Valencia, lo que supone un regreso hasta ahora desconocido a su ciudad natal tras haber realizado la tabla de la Mare de Déu dels Consellers, de Barcelona (1443-1445), y el retablo de san Baudilio, de Sant Boi de Llobregat (1448). …
‘Caprice de chaconne’ (1671): Symmetry and proportions in Francesco Corbetta’s work for Baroque guitar
2018
For performers of Early Music, there is an everlasting quest to unveil new perspectives on a historically distant repertoire in search of new ways of performing and understanding the music. This is true for all performers of Early Music, including Baroque guitarists. A currently very popular performance piece is Francesco Corbetta’s ‘Caprice de chaconne’ (1671, ff. 72–73), which is to be found in his 1671 Baroque guitar tablature-collection, La guitarre royalle. Displaying advanced technical performance skills, embroidered connections between temporal coordinates that border between fantasy and order, it serves as an excellent display, not only of the performer’s technical skills, but also …

this is how we artistically visualise it.
2017
[EN] This study forms part of the project titled: “Aesthetic Quality Research of Three Valencian Schools”. Through it, one may perceive how the architecture, visual culture and daily aesthetics constitute a network that encompasses the conditions for a quality teaching`learning process. Therefore, the aesthetic experience is presented in a way to explore the daily school routine from an interactive perspective between one’s body and their environment. This research took place during 2016 at three schools located in Alicante (Spain). Those schools were chosen as being representative of diverse situations: a multicultural urban school a gypsy`ethnic background urban school and a transient`pop…

In the present study, the chemical composition of the essential oil from aerial parts of the Balkan endemic, Centaurea immanuelis-loewii Degen (sect. Acrocentron, Asteraceae), collected in Bulgaria was evaluated by GC-MS. The main components of the oil were β-caryophyllene (23.2%), germacrene D (13.7%) and caryophyllene oxide (12.4%). Furthermore, a complete literature review on the composition of the essential oils of all the other taxa of Centaurea, belonging to section Acrocentron, studied so far, was performed and the chemotaxonomical variations in the composition of the essential oils is discussed.
Análise semiótico e discursivo dos filmes: "Deus e o diabo na terra do Sol" e "O dragão da maldade contra Santo Guerreiro", de Glauber Rocha
2016
ABSTRACT In 1964, Glauber Rocha directed the film Black God, White Devil year when Brazil suffered a military coup state. Due to strong censorship at the time, the dialogue about political or social issues was forbidden. Despite all that chaos, Glauber Rocha wrote and directed Black God, White Devil and Antonio das Mortes that deal with the dichotomy between good / evil, educated / uneducated, order / disorder, the social, the symbolic constructions of space as semiosphere, borders and their breaks causing chaos. For the director, religion is closely related to politics. The desire for power is enshrined in relations: political and social (interest of the owners on the workers) and religiou…
