Karl Kraus gilt als einer der bedeutendsten Aphoristiker deutscher Sprache. Ob berühmte Schriftsteller oder die Presse - nichts und niemand wurde von der gnadenlosen Kritik seiner Feder verschont. Bekannte Künstler wie Stefan Zweig, Georg Trakl, Thomas Mann und andere zollten ihm Respekt, aber die Zahl seiner Feinde in Kunst und Gesellschaft war enorm. Als Vorleser hinterließ er aufgrund seiner Sprachgewalt und Persönlichkeit angeblich einen äußerst außergewöhnlichen Eindruck.

Как известно, жизнь каждого яркого дарования делится обычно на три периода. Сначала его осыпают насмешками и бранью, всячески угнетают и преследуют. Потом открывается счастливое время признания, за которым следуют дни восторженного поклонения. Наконец, так же неминуемо наступает охлаждение, сопровождающееся нередко резкими выпадами по адресу недавнего любимца и властителя дум. Этой трафаретной схемы избежали немногие даровитые люди, и единственный вариант, вносимый в нее жизнью, сводится к тому, что одни умирают в расцвете славы, а другим суждено ее пережить, изведать к концу жизни всю горечь забвения.

Van Gogh era davvero un pittore reietto, un rifiuto della società? Com'è possibile che un artista capace di raggiungere oggi quotazioni da record, durante la vita non sia mai riuscito a trovare estimatori e collezionisti che acquistassero i suoi dipinti? Per rispondere a queste domande, Costantino D'Orazio ha compiuto un'indagine che ci dà un punto di vista rivoluzionario su uno dei grandi protagonisti della storia dell'arte moderna.

"Искусство видеть" Джона Бергера – это одна из самых обсуждаемых и влиятельных книг об искусстве, когда либо изданных в мире. Она написана по мотивам знаменитого фильма BBC и впервые была опубликована вслед за его премьерным показом в 1972 году.

Artemisia Gentileschi, già tredicenne ricalcava Dürer, senza vergogna denunciò il pittore Agostino Tassi perché colpevole di averla violentata. Antigone sfidò la legge degli uomini per seppellire il fratello Polinice, accusato di tradimento. Constance Quéniaux, ballerina all'Opéra di Parigi, offrì a Courbet il suo dettaglio più intimo perché dipingesse "L'origine del mondo". La regina Nefertiti, "la Bella che qui viene", incendiò il desiderio del capo scultore di corte, che la consacrò, per quanto imperfetta, nella scultura più seducente che la storia ricordi.

Perché i quadri dipinti da uno scimpanzé sono stati quotati più di tante opere di artisti famosi? Perché un orinatoio è divenuto l'emblema dell'arte del Novecento? E perché tanti artisti d'oggi operano con i paradossi della logica, più che con i pennelli? Mentre la riproduzione di una zuppa Campbell ha un enorme valore nel mercato artistico se è opera di Andy Warhol, è considerata un sintomo di disordine mentale se l'autore è internato in un manicomio svizzero.

Wer durch irgendetwas auf Hermann Broch stößt, hat es bald mit Kitsch zu tun. Oder umgekehrt: wer das Phänomen Kitsch auf den Begriff bringen will, kommt an ihm nicht vorbei. Broch sagt Wesentliches zum Thema. Und er ist nicht zimperlich dabei. Seine sehr anspruchsvolle Aufklärung ist fundamental und rigoros. Wer sich darauf einlässt, hat viel gewonnen.

Che cosa hanno in comune Galla Placidia e Adriano Olivetti? La risposta è semplice: la passione per la bellezza, intesa non come effimero piacere estetico, quanto come un desiderio di meraviglia, alimentato dalla consapevolezza che attraverso l'arte si può migliorare il mondo e lasciare un segno duraturo nella storia. Come Isabella D'Este, Federico II di Svevia, Cosimo de' Medici, Alvise Pisani, Pio IV e molti altri, hanno "combattuto" per il trionfo dell'arte, aiutato e ispirato i creatori di opere immortali e finanziato progetti grandiosi sebbene, a volte, velleitari.
