Faust on Film: A Hegelian Modern Art

Murphy, Sarah Kathryn 16 December 2015 (has links)
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between German Expressionist film and Hegel’s system of aesthetics. Through an analysis of the aesthetic qualities of Hanns Ewers’ The Student of Prague (1913) and F.W. Murnau’s Faust, I believe we have evidence to believe that the subjectivity that German Expressionist film sought to capture is aligned with the ‘interiority’ that Hegel believes Romantic art expresses. Further, I will consider whether these two films indicate that film as an artistic medium falls within Hegel’s characterization of Modern art. I believe that because both Student of Prague and Faust use elements of Romantic art in an effort to convey the melancholy spirit, and that the melancholy spirit is reflection and product of a uniquely modern Germany, these films indicate that film as a medium fulfill the requirements Hegel sets for Modern art.

Analisando o projeto político-pedagógico da Cinemateca Brasileira, compreendemos que Paulo Emilio pautou-se no conceito de cultura cinematográfica para embasar a atividade da instituição no intuito de formar no Brasil um público crítico, capaz de compreender diferentes obras da cinematografia mundial em sua totalidade expressiva. Pensando o cinema enquanto linguagem, estética e expressão social, Paulo Emilio inaugura um método crítico inovador, que procuramos entender a partir da aproximação com teóricos do cinema como André Bazin, Erwin Panofski, Gilbert Cohen-Séat e alguns intelectuais da Revue de Filmologie. Em perspectiva, a atividade de Paulo Emilio entre 1954 e 1958 foi-lhe campo de sua práxis, que toma forma definitiva na Semana de Cultura Cinematográfica. No evento, foram exibidos filmes produzidos da República de Weimar, influenciados em sua maioria pela vanguarda expressionista. Para complementar a mostra, Paulo Emilio publicou uma série de onze ensaios, que analisamos e preenchemos suas lacunas a partir da comparação com as obras que lhe foram referência. Sobre os ensaios publicados em princípio de 1959, no Suplemento Literário do jornal O Estado de São Paulo, analisamos as referências de Paulo Emilio prestadas aos trabalhos de Henri Langlois, Siegfried Kracauer, Lotte H. Eisner, como modo de entender o percurso analítico adotado tanto na concepção da mostra, quanto da crítica aos filmes alemães / This dissertation investigates the intellectual activity and political film critic Paulo Emilio Salles Gomes in the 1950s. Analyzing the political-pedagogical project of Brazilian Cinema, Emilio understand that Paul was based on the concept of film culture to support the activity of the institution in order to form an audience in Brazil critic, able to understand different works of world cinema in its entirety expressive. Thinking cinema as language, aesthetics and social expression, Paulo Emilio innovative inaugurates a critical method, we seek to understand from the approach to film theorists such as André Bazin, Erwin Panofski, Gilbert Cohen-Seat and some intellectuals Revue Filmologie. In perspective, the activity of Emilio Paulo between 1954 and 1958 was her field of professional practice, taking definite shape in Film Culture Week. At the event were shown films produced in the Weimar Republic, mostly influenced by avant-garde expressionist. To complement the exhibition, Paulo Emilio ran a series of eleven essays that analyze and fill the gaps from the comparison with the works that have been reference. About the essays published in early 1959 in the literary supplement of the newspaper O Estado de São Paulo, analyze references Paulo Emilio provided the work of Henri Langlois, Siegfried Kracauer, Lotte H.

The poetics of colour in Stefan George, Rainer Maria Rilke, Wassily Kandinsky and Else Lasker-Schüler

Conquer, Grace Beatrice Rey Lawson January 2016 (has links)
This thesis looks at the poetics of colour in Stefan George, Rainer Maria Rilke, Wassily Kandinsky and Else Lasker-Schüler. It argues that focusing on colour words allows us to think more carefully about the sort of making that poetry, around the turn of the twentieth century, was seen to be, its purpose and effects. In doing so it thinks also about this making-about the ways that words can be seen as the material of poetry, the ways poems relate to objects, and are objects, the ways poets negotiate semantic space and communicability. While other accounts argue for the specificity of a particular period, author, or hue, I argue for the specificity of the medium, a conclusion which seems necessary when considering how these particular poets thought about and through colour. While the poets' projects differ, colour can be used in each case like a prism, to separate out their attitudes and commitments towards their medium and its place in the world. The combination of these four poets, which is, to the best of my knowledge, unique, also allows new connections to be seen, whether, facing inward, in terms of colour itself, or outward towards the commitments regarding the poem that an approach via colour exposes. The four poets share an interest in the involvement, and in some cases, aesthetic education, of readers, and in how and what we can learn through reading, and particularly reading colour. What we learn has less to do with colours and how they are experienced than to do with the constructed world of the poem and its mechanisms, and of the role we have to play in animating this world.

Toward the Open Lattice: Ibram Lassaw within Abstract Expressionist Sculpture, 1945-1953

Taylor, Sarah, Taylor, Sarah January 2012 (has links)
This thesis focuses on Ibram Lassaw's open-lattice works by first discussing works from 1945 to 1950 to outline the conceptual and formal themes that contributed to the later style. The open-lattice form presents a complicated interplay between geometric and biomorphic forms, heaviness and lightness, tangibility and remoteness, and openness--which creates a partial boundary whereby the viewer is able to visually penetrate the form, while still being removed bodily. This thesis attempts to root Lassaw's open-lattice works and his metallic accretion process within the Abstract Expressionism movement by comparing the similar bodily experience of viewing Lassaw's works to those of Jackson Pollock's, for example, with a focused attention on material characteristics. This embodied approach offers a new and highly-appropriate language by which to discuss Lassaw's textural open-lattice works. A video of Lassaw's sculpting process is included with this thesis as a supplemental file.

The Indeterminacy of Abstraction: Philip Guston 1947-1951

Keast, Lindsay 29 September 2014 (has links)
Many scholars exclude New York painter Philip Guston (1913-80) from the artistic tradition of Abstract Expressionism due to his absence from New York City during the group's early formative years. This thesis asserts, however, that Guston's role in Abstract Expressionism can be firmly established through his unique interpretation of the formative influence of surrealist automatism. Though never engaging with the surrealists directly, Guston explored automatist ideas upon meeting New York School experimental music composers John Cage and Morton Feldman. This trio's engagement with the Zen Buddhist concepts of unimpededness and interpenetration influenced Guston to create compositions through chance operations, a process Cage would call "indeterminacy." My aim is to enrich an understanding of Guston's idiosyncratic relationship to Abstract Expressionism and, ultimately, to offer a more expansive definition of Abstract Expressionism in general, allowing for a broader understanding of the formation of American modernism.
