The Mind of Leonardo da Vinci

Sinopsis del Libro

Libro The Mind of Leonardo da Vinci

In this classic, engrossing text, a distinguished historian explores the mind and manifold interests of the greatest personality of the Renaissance. More than just a biography, the book presents a detailed investigation of Leonardo da Vinci's genius. Its colorful, evocative prose offers numerous demonstrations of the master's achievements, not only in sculpture and painting, but also in music, engineering, and even experimental aviation. A renowned authority on the works and personality of Leonardo, author Edward McCurdy translated many of the artist's writings. "In the thousands of pages of his manuscript he has left the mirror of his thought," McCurdy observes, "and there his mind may be seen at work, moving among the phenomena of nature and the inherited knowledge of antiquity, trying all things, expounding all things, proving all things." McCurdy begins by tracing the artist's travels, from his native Florence to Milan, Venice, Rome, and France. Part Two examines the manuscripts and their philosophical revelations, and the third section assesses the paintings and sculpture. First published in 1928, this book remains one of the best introductions to Leonardo and his extraordinary versatility.

Crowley was in fact an artist, poet, playwright, mountaineer, explorer, magus, bisexual, a drug user, and even on an occasion a spy.

En busca del dégagé perfecto

Libro En busca del dégagé perfecto

Solange Lebourges ha sido calificada por el coreógrafo Michel Descombey como una leyenda viva de la danza, modelo de vehemencia profesional, capaz de ligar las reflexiones filosóficas y sociales al lenguaje del cuerpo. Por ello, en su faceta como profesora se ha propuesto formar bailarines que no sólo se ocupen de la técnica sino de búsquedas intelectuales.

Tex Avery

Libro Tex Avery

Tex Avery sigue siendo, hoy en día, un cineasta relativamente poco conocido, y aún menos estudiado, como de hecho lo son, salvo algunos casos muy concretos, la mayoría de los realizadores cinematográficos que han escogido el arte de la animación como medio de expresión. El cine de Avery jugaba con elementos de la cultura popular y contaba historias humorísticas dirigidas a un amplio y heterogéneo público, no necesariamente infantil como erróneamente se tiende a creer. Avery fue un director de "cartoons", cortometrajes de animación destinados a ser proyectados en la gran pantalla de ...
