    Gemeinsame Eigenschaft der Werke aus der Malerei der Frührenaissance und dem Film der 1920er bis 1940er Jahre ist die perspektivische Darstellung körperlich-räumlicher Gebilde. Inwiefern ruft das Helldunkel, auch chiaroscuro genannt, ein Bewusstsein für die Verlebendigung des im Bild Wiedergegebenen hervor? Die Natur wird nicht nur täuschend echt dargestellt, es wird auch die Möglichkeit ihrer Erfahrbarkeit thematisiert. Die Spannung zwischen zwei Aspekten des Helldunkel findet sich in beiden Epochen: Dem Skulpturalen einerseits, das die Figur vom Bildgrund löst und ihr statische Festigkeit, Plastizität verleiht. Der malerischen Dimension des Grundes andererseits, welche die Objektivierung entschärft, die Figur in den Tiefenraum einbettet und sie durch die Auflösung der Körpergrenzen bewegt erscheinen lässt. Dies wird im Film durch die tatsächliche Bewegung noch deutlicher. So wird das chiaroscuro mit seinen Möglichkeiten in einem Bereich beschrieben, der bisher in der Kunstgeschichte wenig erschlossen ist

    The science -- Light and dark -- Physics -- Contrast -- Constancy -- The criterion -- Aesthetic value. "Many artists and scientists - including Buffon, Goethe, and Philipp Otto Runge - who observed the vivid coloured shadows that appear outdoors around dawn and dusk, or indoors when a candle burns under waning daylight, chose to describe their colours as 'beautiful'. Paul Smith explains what makes these ephemeral effects worthy of such appreciation - or how depictions of coloured shadows have genuine aesthetic and epistemological significance. This multi-disciplinary book synthesises methodologies drawn from art history (close pictorial analysis), psychology and neuroscience (theories of colour constancy), history of science (the changing paradigms used to explain coloured shadows), and philosophy (theories of perception and aesthetic value drawn from Wittgenstein and Merleau-Ponty). This title will be of interest to scholars in art history, art theory, and the history of science and technology"--

    "With the shadow's seductive associations to sexuality, mystery, danger, intangible power, and death, the use of shadows as artistic technique saturates both classic and modern art forms, and yet the practice remains almost invisible. As the first full-length study of art shadows in over a decade, Grasping Shadows ranges from classic works by Rembrandt, Dickens, Picasso, Disney, and Warhol to contemporary street art, popular songs, billboards, and architecture to propose a general theory of how all shadows function in texts and visual media, ultimately offering four main categories. Sharpe explores the diverse ways shadows appear in literature, painting, photography, and film, insisting that literary and visual meanings of shadows cannot be separated, and that art-shadows must be analyzed as part of a cultural field in which words and images continually overlap and reinforce each other's meanings. Beginning with a summary of scholarship to date, the introduction addresses how real-world shadows function, and gives an overview of the strategies involved in representing shadows from the Renaissance onward. The first chapter sets out a theory of how the meanings of shadows are generated. Subsequent chapters, each centered on an influential literary text, explore in detail the four kinds of shadows that visual artists and writers use. The last chapter presents a case study of how shadows have impacted the art of the modern city, from Renoir and Zola to film noir to advanced projection systems capturing the shadows of passers-by on streets around the globe. The book concludes with a philosophical meditation on how living with shadows enriches everyday life. ".. "Grasping Shadows is the most comprehensive book to date on the artistic use of cast shadows, the first to offer a general theory of how all shadows function in texts and visual images. Accessibly written, it gives new insight into classic works while also exploring contemporary street art, popular songs, and advertising"..

    Cast shadows have been exploited in art to enhance the impression of the surrounding light as well as that of the solidity of the casting objects. They can contribute to the mood of the scene, and can reveal the presence of features outside the space represented, but as Professor Gombrich points out, they appear only sporadicaly and have been more frequently ignored or suppressed in Western art. Gombrich touches on the ambiguous nature of shadows in myth, legend, and philosophy, and briefly analyses the factors governing their shape: the location and form of the light source, the shape of the illuminated object and that of the surface on which the shadow falls, and the position of the viewer. Early Renaissance painters such as Masaccio and Campin, intent on a faithful rendering of visual reality, did incorporate shadows in their art, but artists of Leonardo's time largely avoided painting them, and it was not until early in the seventeenth century that painters - particualrly Caravaggio and Rembrandt - were again interested in the effects of shadows. In subsequent centuries artists of the Romantic, Impressionist and Surrealist movements exploited the device of the cast shadow to enhance the realism or drama of their images

    Jeune auteur à la bibliographie galopante - une dizaine de livres et des participations à divers collectifs et revues ('Polychromies', 'Kiblind', 'Papier', 'Gorgonzola'...) - Victor Hussenot exprime une vision affirmée de la bande dessinée. Amateur de contraintes, jouant souvent avec les codes, il multiplie les projets dans des directions biens différentes, mais toujours connectées.0Avec 'Les gris colorés', paru à La 5e Couche en 2014, Hussenot proposait une série d?histoires courtes et de dessins montrant les sensations et les relations des personnages uniquement par des couleurs et des formes. Cette fois-ci, le dispositif mis en place par l?auteur qui sont autant de récits intimes ou de descriptions des sentiments. L?Oubapo a profondément marqué Hussenot, qui a vu dans les contraintes une manière de représenter visuellement des questions existentielles et temporelles avec la boucle (Morlaque) par exemple, comme chez Escher que l?auteur apprécie beaucoup. Faire de la bande dessinée avec des contraintes, c?était un moyen de réfléchir aux questions humaines et universelles, tout en dessinant

    "Going Dark brings together a multigenerational group of contemporary artists who engage the "semi-visible" figure-representations that are partially (or fully) obscured, including, in some cases, literally darkened-and suggests that the concept of going dark is a tool that has been used by artists for decades to probe enduring questions surrounding both the potential and the discontents of social visibility. Across mediums-painting, photography, sculpture, video and installation-Going Dark names, charts and makes meaning of the semi-visible figure, arguing for its significance in contemporary art as a genre of unique conceptual and formal power. More than 125 works in all of these mediums by more than 25 artists are featured. Essays by such curators as Legacy Russell and Jordan Carter, and professor Abbe Schriber, among others, contextualize the histories that inspired these works. In addition, four award-winning poets and three acclaimed graphic designers have contributed works. Artists include: American Artist, Kevin Beasley, Rebecca Belmore, Dawoud Bey, John Edmonds, Ellen Gallagher, David Hammons, Lyle Ashton Harris, Tomashi Jackson, Titus Kaphar, Glenn Ligon, Kerry James Marshall, Tiona Nekkia McClodden, Joiri Minaya, Sandra Mujinga, Chris Ofili, Sondra Perry, Farah Al Qasimi, Faith Ringgold, Doris Salcedo, Lorna Simpson, Sable Elyse Smith, Stephanie Syjuco, Hank Willis Thomas, WangShui, Carrie Mae Weems and Charles White"--
