"The Contest Between Painting and Sculpture" |
|
|
|
MUNICH, GERMANY.- The Haus der Kunst presents "The Contest Between Painting and Sculpture - From Dürer to Daumier", on view through May 5, 2002. Reflections by art and artists about their medium and their profession are as old as art itself. Art becomes the subject not only of learned discussions and literary treatises, but also again and again directly in the works of art themselves. The portrait of the artist at work, the painted art gallery, the collector with his treasures - these are all open forms of self-expression that have been pursued in all centuries, but mostly in the 17th and 18th centuries. Painting and sculpture as subjects of themselves have appeared openly in the allegorical personifications of Pictura and Sculptura, but also in the mythological representations of Apelles and the Christian representations of St. Luke, painting the Mother of God. The pictures and sculptures shown in the paintings - but also studio and academy scenes - cannot be completely understood until they are deciphered as "painted" art theory.
