Plaster Casts in the Life and Art of Seventeenth-Century Dutch PaintersLores-Chavez, Isabella January 2022 (has links)
In the early modern Dutch Republic, plaster casts offered artists a way to overcome limitations of space and time, to reach places distant and ancient, and to present themselves anew. This dissertation constitutes the first comprehensive account of the impact plaster casts had on the artistic practice, intellectual endeavors, and social status of seventeenth-century Dutch artists.
Though plaster casts appear in archival documents, in theoretical texts, and most of all in paintings across genres, they have been marginalized in the history of Dutch art, too often explained away as mere studio props or didactic tools. I inquire, instead, into the consequences of Dutch painters’ conscious choice to depict plaster casts after ancient and modern sculpture, at the same time they staked their claims as practitioners of a noble art. Plaster casts linked Dutch painters to antiquity, to the Renaissance, to discerning contemporary collectors, and to one another. These modest objects, full of semantic potential, were incorporated into myriad compositions in which they became signifiers of an artist’s ambitions, humanistic aspirations, and technical virtuosity.
Through novel interpretations of paintings in which plaster casts have been taken for granted, I argue that plaster casts lie at the heart of the self-awareness and artistic self-promotion manifested in the seemingly quotidian paintings of the new seventeenth-century genres. This dissertation also sets out to recognize the variety of laborers involved in the production and circulation of the actual plaster casts, though their specific identities remain largely obscured or lost in the historical record. Their absence from the corpus of images of trades and professions emerges in stark contrast to the privileged self-fashioning of Dutch painters, for whom plaster casts functioned as a means to distinguish themselves from other artisans.
I take the pictorialized encounter between plaster casts and artists as an opportunity to discern the particularities of that interaction and to explore the liveliness that plaster casts introduced into both the experience of studying casts and the compositions artists populated with them. With an invigorated focus on plaster itself as a material with a protean character and multi-purpose applications, this dissertation contributes to the discourse on Dutch painters’ naer het leven practice through an overdue analysis of the sculptural copies and other bodies in plaster that kept them company.

The unsettled objectSharek, Elizabeth January 2007 (has links)
The Unsettled Object is an installational art project that considers the instability of objects in regards to their assembly, classification, and presentation, underpinned by the context of the museum and supported by Michel Foucault’s notion of the classificatory grids he discusses in The Order of Things: an archaeology of the Human Sciences. (Foucault,1970) The artefacts are being fabricated as a response to the corporeal body-on-display; its surfaces, spaces and volumes. An underlying notion of temporality and mutability is indicated in the processes of making, the objects, material responsiveness and the devices employed in the presentation of the work.

Kemikalier i livsmedelsförpackningar och dess påverkan på människors hälsa : En studie om migrering av kemikalier från produkter och livsmedelsförpackningar till livsmedelSvensson Sellin, Viveca January 2013 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the migration of chemicals from products and food containers into food and determine the health issues of those chemicals. The study was made to help make a risk assessment of the chemicals that migrate from the products and food containers. The study was done by researching the internet and books and having interviews with suppliers, producers and resellers of the containers by e-mail or over the phone. The different materials in the food packages and products that were researched had different chemicals that were added to give the material a certain property such as colour, density and flame resistance. The result shows that a lot of our products and food containers contain a variety of chemicals. Some of the chemicals proved to be in direct correlation with the health issues of our hormone- and reproductive systems and others had a direct effect on our bigger organs. The plastic food containers and products proved to have the most additives and health issues from the added chemicals compared to the other materials. The risk assessment that was made ranged from 1 to 4 in which 1 is an indication that the material and/or chemical is toxic, a 2 indicates that it is not sure whether or not the material and/or chemical is toxic, a 3 indicates that the material and/or chemical is not toxic and a 4 indicates that more studies have to be done to be sure of the materials and/or chemicals toxicity.
