{"title":"Considerations on the Human Body in European Art from Ancient Times to Present Day","authors":"L. Nedelcu","doi":"10.35218/ARMCA.2019.1.11","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.35218/ARMCA.2019.1.11","url":null,"abstract":"The present considerations on the human body tried to place the exploration of the topic in its radically cultural dimension, hence the references to the body being already addressed to the anthropomorphic, descriptive, symbolic sign completely emerged in artistic exercise. We outlined artistic findings from old times to contemporaneity wherever the motive of the human body was central in this selection; furthermore, the nude has made and still makes the subject of convergent discourses on its representation, intensity or weakening of its capacity for signifying. Land of inexhaustible negotiation between nature and culture, available to primitivism, always found again as more sophisticated, transformed by the demands imposed throughout history, ideals and illusions, the body imposes itself on cultural conscience as an irreducible challenge. This paper is consecrated to the nude and aims at overviewing a large series of investigations from European art on the topic. I believe that from more ancient times to contemporaneity, the human body proved to be an excellent landmark in the approach of any artist; moreover, this seduction will continue to exert itself on the upcoming artists, irrespective of the future’s artistic tendencies. The fact that, in time, the human figure has been an extremely important motive for the artistic laboratory determined me to choose this topic; in addition, throughout the article, I have attempted to prove the interest in the nude, recalling the most important tendencies and manifestation from old times to contemporaneity. In this approach, we started from the finding, which has actually marked many years of my creation, that the human body may show itself in a sacred and profane hypostasis; as a result, this study was structured to account for the two dimensions. Along the documentation and drafting, I realized that, in fact, the human body can only be sacred even in its nude hypostasis. The purpose of the present paper is far from exhausting the problematic of the human body; its aim is to draw attention to the importance of the topic. The concerns on this topic have taken various forms throughout art history. We brought into play the significance of the human body in Old Greeks quoting Thucydides who argued that the difference between Greeks and barbarians was marked in a civilising way since nudity had become the rule in the Olympic Games; I wrote on Christian art during the first centuries AD, then about the art of the Middle Ages which brought profound changes to the * Manager of Vrancea Cultural Center, Assoc.

If in Ancient times, self-portrait was considered just a simple documentary evidence, later it became a real symbol of the painterʾs identity and also an essential way of expressing one’s deepest feelings which seemed to be forgotten, but they were actually stored in one’s subconscious level. The article highlights specific ways of selfrepresentations both in universal and in Romanian medieval art, which mark the beginning of self-consciousness, from a psychological point of view, and the beginning of a three dimensional representation, from a technical point of view, which indicates the beginning of profane painting that is different from the Byzatine style characterized by specific representation canons.","PeriodicalId":37287,"journal":{"name":"Anastasis","volume":"100 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76613080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A description with references to the actual situation of the icon pictures the framework in which not only this object, but also a group of other five other icons that it is part of, is now the focus of attention and conservation-restoration interventions, after they left the original site. After some regards concerning style, author, and technical aspects, as well as the present conservation state of the icon, it has been pointed out the necessity to study these artifacts more thoroughly and investigate them in a scientific way. In this respect, in order to offer a helping hand to the people in charge who started to decipher the inscriptions that give us important information about this icon and also at least another one from the group, the restorer had the role to professionally unveil the texts without any danger to the object. There are presented some intervention made with this aim, and the results that were achieved with some professional aid in the deciphering and translating the writings. Once this information came into light in a more detailed way, the need to identify some chemical features of the materials in the composition of the ensemble, but also some morphological and structural aspects of it became a priority, not only from the perspective of the restoration process had in view, but also for the better knowledge of other research horizons. Thus, the type of investigations that were made are presented, together with their results. The achieved data throws a new light not only upon the Transylvanian icons of the time, but also on future research in a comparative way.","PeriodicalId":37287,"journal":{"name":"Anastasis","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73395786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some elements of ethics and justice, of social organization or relationship between the perceptible and the non-perceptible, of understanding the divine and correlation with ethical faith and duty, have their roots in the philosophical imaginary of the ancient political system, the first system that aimed at the construction of a model of civic society. The ′′inheritance′′ at the level of the collective imaginary is, thus, not only Christian, but also ancient. Without having established an unmediated scientific relationship with the ancient texts whence the philosophical imaginary of the political can be extracted the medieval Romanian power followed the natural community formation routes, which were derived from a social model. This type of organization was re-interpreted by the philosophers of Christian power and theologically included in the oikonomic plan. The practical interpretation given by Romanian lawmakers to some of the post-Byzantine political ideas aimed at an adaptation of those discursive formations, which governed the trans-state collective imaginary in the area of influence of the empire. The Romanian imaginary itself will spring from these intersections between a normal line of socio-economic coalescence and a political plan for the formation of a state unit with its own acknowledged ′′national′′ identity, under the influence of the ′′basileic chimera′′. Finally, the ′′history of the imperial idea for the Romanians will be that of a compromise between a political ideal and practical realities′′.","PeriodicalId":37287,"journal":{"name":"Anastasis","volume":"0 0 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86051960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
