Writing on the Wall : Word and Image in Modern Art

作者: Simon Morley 索書號: N8265 M67 2003

This study explores the strange, unsettling and often humorous results when words escape their traditional confines and inhabit artworks. It traces the growing bond between word and image in art, explaining how artists since the late nineteenth century have harnessed the resulting tension to form identities, challenge authority and make sense of a world in constant change.  Writing on the Wall also reveals how artists have responded to an environment increasingly saturated with words, and how the mass media have adopted and adapted artistic devices in lypography, propaganda and advertising.

Metal Dreams : Metamorphosen islandischer Erde : Thelma Herzl, Damir Hoyka

: Anton Herzl  索書號: N7053 H47 A4 2003

The “ Metal Dreams” series is an artwork of enormous intensity and moving atmosphere. The unique topography of Iceland forms the basis of a staged installation with the solid material of industrial aluminium, which sometimes emphasizes features of the landscape like a text marker, sometimes imitates nature or enters into a dialogue with it and yet also speaks with one voice. In a harmonic synthesis, the ancient opposition of culture and nature- the aesthetic and the sublime- fuses into a new quality: land art is not sculpture nor is it image.

Musica Poetica : Musical-Rhetorical Figures in German Baroque Music

作者: Dietrich Bartel  索書號: ML3849 B289 1997

Musica Poetica provides an unprecedented examination of the development of Baroque musical thought. The initial chapters, which serve as an introduction to the concept and teachings of musical-rhetorical figures, explore Martin Luther's theology of music, the development of the Baroque concept of musica poetica, the idea of the affections in German Baroque music, and that music's use of the principles and devices of rhetoric. Dietrich Bartel then turns to more detailed considerations of the musical-rhetorical figures that were developed in Baroque treatises and publications. After brief biographical sketches of the major theorists, Bartel examines those theorists' interpretations and classifications of the figures.
