L’OEUVRE DE LA SEMAINE - Ce mascaron provient du Pont-Neuf qui est, en réalité, le plus ancien pont de Paris. À l’origine, il est décoré de 381 mascarons tous différents qui figurent des têtes de divinités de la mythologie antique, comme les satyres. Dans l’Antiquité, les mascarons avaient un rôle de protection des habitations et des quartiers contre les mauvais esprits, c’est dans cette même logique qu’ils ornent le pont. Construit sur la pointe aval de la Cité, le Pont-Neuf devait suppléer au pont Notre-Dame et au pont au Change, abîmés par les différentes crues et débâcles de la Seine. Henri III en pose la première pierre en 1578. Les travaux sont interrompus par les guerres de Religion et reprennent en 1592 sur ordre d’Henri IV qui l’inaugure en 1607, suivant un dessin architectural beaucoup plus simple que le projet initialement prévu. L’ensemble constitue un des premiers projets d’aménagement urbain à Paris. - Anonyme, mascaron du Pont-Neuf, 16e siècle © Musée Carnavalet - Histoire de Paris / Paris Musées - #Carnavalet #Museecarnavalet #musee #histoiredeParis #Paris #histoire #architecture #partrimoine #urbanismeParisien #PontNeuf #sculpture #HenriIV #HenriIII #Paris1 #oeuvredelasemaine #danslescollections - @museecarnavalet on Instagram

Our campus is lucky to have some incredible art from a variety of Indigenous artists—swipe through the carousel to see just some of the works displayed at UBC! ⠀ ⠀ 🌄⠀ ⠀ Although most of us won’t be on campus this year, it’s important to remember that UBC’s Vancouver campus is situated on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Musqueam people. Head to students.ubc.ca/ubclife/musqueam to find out more. ⠀ 🍂⠀ ⠀ Slide 1: Musqueam Post by Brent Sparrow Jr. (Musqueam)⠀ ⠀ This post represents the story of how the Musqueam’s traditional name came to be, and reaffirms the Musqueam’s centuries-long connection to the land that our campus—and much of Metro Vancouver—is located on. ⠀ ⠀ Slide 2: Thunder by Thomas Cannell (Musqueam)⠀ ⠀ Thunder was installed as part of the 2010 Winter Olympics. It depicts salmon and salmon eggs being carried up by Thunderbirds, who are signs of good luck in Musqueam culture.⠀ ⠀ Slide 3: Victory Through Honour pole by Ellen Neel (Kwakwakaʼwakw)⠀ ⠀ In 1948, the Kwicksutaineuk people of the BC West Coast gave UBC permission to use the Thunderbird as our mascot. The occasion was commemorated with this totem pole, originally carved by Ellen Neel. A replica (shown in slide 3) was created in 2003 by Kwakwakaʼwakw artists Calvin Hunt and Merv Child.⠀ ⠀ Slide 4: Raven Brings the Light by Bernard Kerrigan (Haida)⠀ ⠀ This mural depicts an ancient Haida legend about a boy who brings daylight back to Earth from the Chief of the Heavens during a time of darkness. ⠀ ⠀ 👉 To learn more about each piece and explore other Indigenous art on campus, visit students.ubc.ca/indigenous-art.⠀ - @ubc_studentlife on Instagram

Francis Bacon Personnage Couche 1966 One of the greatest figurative painters of the 20th century, Francis Bacon’s Surrealist work was as often a break from tradition as it was a continuation. Using photography, pre-modern painting, and his own experiences and memories as source materials, his paintings were fraught, tender, and expressive, sometimes frighteningly so. - @artspace on Instagram

Lovely sculpture garden @umlaufsculpture . This one captures my heart as a mother. I am beyond grateful to have this extra bonus time with my kids as they learn remotely. Just last year I was in tears at how fast they are growing and then boom, I got this gift of “remote schooling” and have had them by my side every minute of every day since March. Exploring the USA together means everything. I know this won’t all last forever but I will cling and grasp as tightly as I can for as long as I can. Create your own memories, they’re all that really matter in the end. Check out today’s blog post on tips for learning remotely while on the road! #traveltheworld #travel #itinerary #wander #explore #travelblog #adventure #familytime #vacation #letsgoeverywhere #traveladdict #travelitinerary #travelphoto #travelphotography #travelforlife #instatravel #travelwriter #travelgram #writetotravel #familytrip #travelingwithkids #travelblogger #instatravel #wanderer #adventures #travelwriter #travelgram #explore #traveltrips #roadtrip #roadtripusa #roadtrippin - @sundaystrolling on Instagram

‘Karma’ is a large-scale sculpture by Korean artist Do Ho Suh featuring a number of stainless steel men stacked on top of each other and covering their eyes. “His work continually questions one’s identity and individuality by using the human body. These stainless steel men, though recognizably different entities, appear to move as one. While the piece is open for interpretation, it makes one question whether the idea behind it is to present the figure of a man blindly following in the path of his ancestors before him, who have risen a step closer to the heavens with each new successor in the lineage.” Photo Alan Teo #DoHoSuh #ContemporaryArt #ArtInstallation - @robin.perdriolle on Instagram

Oslo-based Norwegian artist Fredrik Raddum is known for his imaginative figurative sculptures and installation art, which often explore political themes. Raddum’s most recent collection of bronze sculptures—titled Hacienda Paradise – Utopia Experiment—was exhibited early in 2017 at Galleri Brandstrup, and sheds light on a true story of human immigration that’s now referred to as “The Galapagos Affair.” . #statues #statue #sculpture #sculptures #art #total_statues #photography #travel #photooftheday #Norway #raddum #bronze #pigeon #immigration #political #flight #figurative #modern #modernart - @statues on Instagram

Coming soon ... il Castello Sforzesco, in collaborazione con il Musée du Louvre, presenta per il 2021 la mostra Il corpo e lanima, da Donatello a Michelangelo. Scultura italiana del Rinascimento (5 marzo - 6 giugno 2021). L’esposizione evidenzia, attraverso la scultura, in dialogo con le altre arti (pittura, disegni, oggetti d’arte), i principali temi che percorrono l’arte italiana nella seconda metà del Quattrocento, fino ad arrivare al momento di apogeo del Rinascimento, con uno dei maggiori creatori della storia dell’arte, Michelangelo. Curatori: Marc Bormand (Parigi, Musée du Louvre, conservatore del dipartimento di sculture), Beatrice Paolozzi Strozzi (Firenze, già direttrice del Museo del Bargello), Francesca Tasso (Milano, Conservatore responsabile delle Raccolte Artistiche del Castello Sforzesco) L’esposizione si terrà prima al Louvre, dal 22 ottobre 2020 al 18 gennaio 2021 Per saperne di più: https://tinyurl.com/Corpo-e-anima Img: Cristoforo Solari, Cristo alla colonna (part.), Duomo di Milano - Milan Cathedral #castellosforzescomilano #castellosforzesco #comunemilano #yesmilano #laculturanonsiferma #museelouvre - @castellosforzescomilano on Instagram

I have signed up for a sculpting course and here’s my finished 1:1 head bust. Sculpting is a really great observation practice. Great for getting better at anatomy too, which is crucial in drawing. I’m hoping to do more of these in the future, but either on a smaller scale or just in Zbrush (less messy) 😄. There’s tons of room for improvement, but we will get there eventually :) . . . #sculpting #claysculpture #headbust #armature #headsculpt #headsculpture #zbrush #clay - @matchojnowski on Instagram

The Farnese Hercules (Italian: Ercole Farnese) is an ancient statue of Hercules, probably an enlarged copy made in the early third century AD and signed by Glykon, who is otherwise unknown; the name is Greek but he may have worked in Rome. Like many other Ancient Roman sculptures it is a copy or version of a much older Greek original that was well known, in this case a bronze by Lysippos (or one of his circle) that would have been made in the fourth century BC. - @figure.sculpture on Instagram

Barberini Faun, ca. 220 B.C., Greek or Roman. Staatliche Antikensammlungen und Glyptothek, Munich. Photo: Carole Raddato Source: Wikimedia Commons ° ° ° The Barberini Faun One of my favorite museums I like to visit repeatedly is the Glypothek in Munich. Today I would like to introduce the highlight of their collection: The Barberini Faun. A sculpture of a sleepy satyr or faunus in the form of a young, muscular man. Probably created around 220 BC. It is debatable whether it is a Roman or Greek artwork. If you walk around the figure, you will discover a horse’s tail on the lower back – which indicates with the pointed ears to a faun – a mystical being between humans and animals. The naked figure is leaning on a rock spur and has a considerable total height of 1.81 m. The ancient masterpiece was found in 1620 during excavations in the trench of Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome, which had been commissioned by Pope Urban VII. At time the right leg, parts of the hands and head were missing. Cardinal Maffeo Barberini commissioned the Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598–1680) with a restoration, whereby the missing parts were also added. They changed the figure into a baroque sense of style with a stronger sexual orientation. Afterwards the sculpture was part of the Barberini collection in their palace in Rome and has since been named after the Barberini house. In 1813 Johann Martin von Wagner acquired the figure on behalf of Prince Ludwig of Bavaria (the later King Ludwig I of Bavaria) from the Barberini, who were in financial difficulties and had it transported across the Alps from Rome to Munich. At the request of the King Ludwig I of Bavaria in 1830 the faun has been exhibited in the Glypothek in Munich, where it is still one of the main attractions nowadays. Due to the transport from Rome the figure lacks in its current state fingers of the right hand, the left arm, the left foot and the foremost part of the penis. The Glyptothek is currently closed for renovation work and is expected to reopen in November 2020. #antikensammlungenGlyptothek #antikensammlung #glyptothek #barberinifaun ° ° ° ° ° ° ° ° ° ° ° ° ° ° ° ° ° ______________________ - @peterjspoerer on Instagram
