Unflinching eye: Goya, the vivid witness to beauty, grandeur, and warFrom court portraits for the Spanish royals to horrific scenes of conflict and suffering, Francisco Jose de Goya y Lucientes (1746 1828) made a mark as one of Spain s most revered and controversial artists. A master of form and light, his influence reverberates down the centuries, inspiring and fascinating artists from the Romantic Eugene Delacroix to Britart enfants terribles, the Chapman brothers.Born in Fuendetodos, Spain, in 1746, Goya was apprenticed to the Spanish royal family in 1774, where he produced etchings and tapestry cartoons for grand palaces and royal residences across the country. He was also patronized by the aristocracy, painting commissioned portraits of the rich and powerful with his increasingly fluid and expressive style. Later, after a bout of illness, the artist moved towards darker etchings and drawings, introducing a nightmarish realm of witches, ghosts, and fantastical creatures.It was, however, with his horrific depictions of conflict that Goya achieved enduring impact. Executed between 1810 and 1820, The Disasters of War was inspired by atrocities committed during the Spanish struggle for independence from the French and penetrated the very heart of human cruelty and sadism. The bleak tones, agitated brushstrokes, and aggressive use of Baroque-like light and dark contrasts recalled Velazquez and Rembrandt, but Goya s subject matter was unprecedented in its brutality and honesty.In this introductory book from TASCHEN Basic Art 2.0 we set out to explore the full arc of Goya s remarkable career, from elegant court painter to deathly seer of suffering and grotesquerie. Along the way, we encounter such famed portraits as Don Manuel Osorio Manrique de Zuniga, the dazzling Naked Maja, and The 3rd of May 1808 in Madrid, one of the most heart-stopping images of war in the history of art.About the series: Each book in TASCHEN s Basic Art series features: a detailed chronological summary of the life and oeuvre of the artist, covering his or her cultural and historical importance a concise biography approximately 100 illustrations with explanatory captions"

Goya Lucientes Francisco José – vynikajúci španielsky maliar a grafik. Realista geniálneho maliarskeho citu zachytával dramatické scény španielskeho života. Bol odporcom klasicizmu a živelný kolorista. Z jeho uvoľnenej maľby bohatosti farieb čerpalo romantické maliarstvo 19. storočia.

Francisco Goya has been widely celebrated as the most important Spanish artist of the late-eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the last of the old masters and the first of the moderns, and an astute observer of the human condition in all its complexity. The many-layered and shifting meanings of his work have made him one of the most studied artists in the world. Few, however, have made the ambitious attempt to explore his work as a painter, printmaker and draftsman across media and the timeline of his life. This book does just that, presenting a comprehensive and integrated view of Goya's most important paintings, prints, and drawings through the themes and imagery that continually challenged or preoccupied the artist. They reveal how he strove relentlessly to understand and describe human behavior and emotional states, even at their most orderly or disorderly extremes, in elegant and incisive portraits, dramatic and monumental history paintings, and series of prints and drawings of a satirical, disturbing and surreal nature. Derived from the research for the largest Goya art exhibition in North America in a quarter-century, this book takes a fresh look at one of the greatest artists in history by examining the fertile territory between the two poles that defined the range of his boundlessly creative personality. Francisco José Goya y Lucientes (1746-1828) was born in Fuendetodos, Aragón, in the northeast of Spain. Goya was court painter to the Spanish Crown, and famously documented the Peninsular War (1807-1814) between France and Spain in his harrowing "Disasters of War" series. An important bridge to the modernist era, Goya's oeuvre provided a crucial precedent for artists such as Manet, Picasso and Francis Bacon.

Výstava Tauromaquia: Tváří v tvář býku nabídla návštěvníkům Obecního domu v Praze unikátní zážitek shlédnout díla mistrů jako Picasso, Goya, Dalí, Filla a Čapek.Výstava představila osobnosti světového umění, které spojuje velké téma: býčí zápasy. Býk symbolizuje sílu, statečnost a plodnost. Pro umělce ale neznamenaly býčí zápasy pouze vášnivou podívanou na boj člověka se zvířetem; dávaly jim možnost prezentovat názory. Animální síla, kterou býk vyzařuje, rozehrává v dílech Pabla Picassa, Salvadora Dalího, Franciska Goyi, Emila Filly a Karla Čapka fascinující obrazy.Tento katalog uceleně představuje odborné texty k jednotlivým částem výstavy - Význam Tauromaquie, Francisco de Goya, Salvador Dalí, Pablo Picasso a jejich pojetí Tauromaquie, nakonec kapitoly věnované Emilu Fillovi a Karlu Čapkovi. Texty jsou doprovázeny unikátními fotografiemi originálních kreseb, olejomaleb a keramiky, které tak přiblíží čtenáři nejen tvorbu těchto nejslavnějších výtvarných mistrů, ale také fascinující svět španělské koridy.Do textu přispěli Serena Baccaglini, Mario Virgilio Montanez Arroyo z Picassovy nadace Museo Casa Natal, Glorvina Durrbach Célérier, která pro výstavu zapůjčila unikátní přípravný karton Picassovy Guernici, Michael R. Lucas z Phyllis Lucas Gallery, Václav Rákos, profesor František Dvořák a Valérie Dvořáková.

Goyův mnohostranný talent vyvolává u kritiků protichůdné reakce. Byl mistrem, jehož obraz Saturna, hltajícího zkrvavené tělo svého syna, je stejně nezapomenutelný jako jedinečné ztvárnění jemného světla, zachyceného v bílé saténové róbě hraběnky. Většina kritiků se shoduje na tom, že Goya jednou provždy změnil západní umění, i když jeho vliv bývá interpretován různě. Degas si například posteskl, že Goyovou vinou je odsouzen k tomu, aby maloval hospodyni ve vaně.

Francisco Goya (1746-1828), one of Spain’s most revered and controversial painters, is known for his intense, chilling, and sometimes grotesque paintings depicting the injustice of society with brutal sincerity.

Caprichos - sbírka mistrovských kacířských kreseb, umění jako sebevyjádření, kritika, satira, obhajoba, svízel - stěží najdeme další román o umělci, který by čtenáři líčil dějiny vzniku obrazů tak citlivě, s překvapující přesností a správností. Postava Goyi v něm vystupuje jako na tapiserii, obklopená tisícem barev historických událostí. Kromě malíře zobrazuje ohromující panorama osmnáctého století ve Španělsku: na jedné straně španělskou inkvizici, stále ještě zakořeněnou ve středověku, která už na královský rod nemá téměř žádný vliv. Na druhé zrození nové doby v čerstvém větru vanoucím přes hranice z Francie, rozvoj měšťanstva, obchodníků, politických stratégů. A uprostřed všeho král Carlos, posedlý zájmem o hodinky, prostoduchý monarcha, kterého před napácháním ještě větších škod chrání nejen pohodlná povaha, ale i politika jeho chytré, života lačné manželky

Drawings by Francisco de Goya presents the fruits of the research undertaken for the publication of a new catalogue raisonne of Goya's drawings, a subject to which the Museo del Prado has always devoted particular attention and which is one of the keystones of its collection. Since the publication of Gassier's catalogue in 1973 the number of drawings attributed to Goya has changed, giving rise to the need for a new catalogue raisonne which updates the enormous body of information accumulated over the course of two centuries of literature on this subject.This book brings together more than 100 drawings by Goya from the Prado's own collections and from public and private ones around the world. It is presented as a chronological survey of his work that includes drawings from throughout his career, ranging from the Italian Sketchbook to the Bordeaux Albums. It also offers an up-to-date vision of the ideas that recurrently appear in Goya's work, revealing the ongoing and long-lasting relevance of his thinking.

Modern art begins with Goya. He was the first to create works of art for their own sake, and he lived in a time of incredible cultural and social dynamism when the old concepts of social hierarchy were being shaken by the new concept of equality for all. He saw his world ripped apart by Napoleon's armies and then suffered the reactionary backlash as the old order was restored. Against this epic canvas, Goya painted his own observations of humanity, transforming his youthful images of gaily dancing peasants into his mature penetrating studies of human suffering, despair, perseverance and redemption. Goya's art rises above the chaos of his times, and signals the real revolution of personal expression and independent spirit that would be the generative force behind the modernist movement in art.

In 1792, when he was forty-seven, the Spanish painter Francisco de Goya contracted a serious illness which left him stone deaf. In this extraordinary book Julia Blackburn follows Goya through the remaining thirty-five years of his life. It was a time of political turmoil, of war, violence and confusion, and Goya transformed what he saw happening in the world around him into his visionary paintings, drawings and etchings. These were also years of tenderness for Goya, of intimate relationships with the Duchess of Alba and with Leocadia, his mistress, who was with him to the end. Julia Blackburn writes of the elderly painter with the intimacy of an old friend, seeing through his eyes and sharing the silence in his head, capturing perfectly his ferocious energy, his passion and his genius.

The Old Master who ushered in the modern era. Francisco Jose de Goya y Lucientes (1746-1828), one of Spain's most revered and controversial painters, is known for his intense, chilling, and sometimes grotesque paintings depicting the injustice of society with brutal sincerity. A court painter to the Spanish crown, he captured, through his works, a snapshot of life in Spain in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Coming at the tail end of the Old Masters period, Goya, with his audacious, subversie, and highly influential works, can be considered the first painter of the modern era. His influence can be seen in the works of artists as varied as Picasso and Francis Bacon. About the Series: Every book in TASCHEN's "Basic Art Series" features: a detailed chronological summary of the artist's life and work, covering the cultural and historical importance of the artist; approximately 100 color illustrations with explanatory captions; and a concise biography.
