It spans more than fifty years, and includes such varied forms of artistic expression as painting, sculpture, drawing, graphic art, ceramics, and not le...
Krøyer and Paris
‘A lover of light’: in 1912, a French critic used these words to describe the great Danish painter Peder Severin Krøyer, who had close ties to the French art scene for more than two decades. Krøyer first visited Paris in 1877, and his many letters clearly show the impact French art had on Krøyer’s own development as a painter, on the artists’ colony in Skagen, and on Danish art history in general. In Krøyer and Paris. French Connections and Nordic Colours, art historians Mette Harbo Lehmann and Dominique Lobstein describe Krøyer’s artistic development from the Golden Age tradition favoured by the Danish academy to Naturalism and the Modern Breakthrough. They show how inspiration from France can be traced in his painting technique and his open-air paintings from Skagen, revealing how French Naturalism made its mark on Krøyer’s distinctive style. Krøyer and Paris has also been published in Danish.
The Artist's Garden
The Artist’s Garden will feature up to 20 gardens that have inspired and been home to some of the greatest painters of history. These gardens not only supplied the inspiration for creative works but also illuminate the professional motivation and private life of the artists themselves – from Cezanne’s house in the south of France to Childe Hassam at Celia Thaxter’s garden off the coast off Maine. Flowers and gardens have often been the first choice for artists looking for a subject. A garden close to the artist’s studio is not only convenient for daily material and ideas, but also has the advantage of changing through the seasons and over time. Claude Monet’s Giverny was the cata...

Kunstens meridian
"Kunstens meridian. Om Peter Brandes" er den forste monografi om Peter Brandes' kunst. Bogen forfolger en rAekke hovedtemaer, der gar pa tvAers af Brandes' kunstneriske produktion og drager igennem den nogle linjer, som bogens forfatter, Ettore Rocca, kalder "kunstens meridian". Udtrykket 'meridian' er lant fra den tyske digter Paul Celan, hvor det betegner den usynlige linje i en poetisk samtale. Celan er samtidig den forfatter, som Brandes igennem hele sin karriere har folt det storste slAegtskab til, og i Brandes' kulturvandring finder Rocca tilsvarende en meridian, der forekommer bade umulig og uudslettelig.
Tourism Destination Evolution
Outlining the need for fresh perspectives on change in tourism, this book offers a theoretical overview and empirical examples of the potential synergies of applying evolutionary economic geography (EEG) concepts in tourism research. EEG has proven to be a powerful explanatory paradigm in other sectors and tourism studies has a track record of embracing, adapting, and enhancing frameworks from cognate fields. EEG approaches to tourism studies complement and further develop studies of established themes such as path dependence and the Tourism Area Life Cycle. The individual chapters draw from a broad geographical framework and address distinct conceptual elements of EEG, using a diverse set of tourism case studies from Europe, North America and Australia. Developing the theoretical cohesion of tourism and EEG, this volume also gives non-specialist tourism scholars a window into the possibilities of using these concepts in their own research. Given the timing of this publication, it has great potential value to the wider tourism community in advancing theory and leading to more effective empirical research.
I bølgen blå
"I mit Billede maatte alt vige for Hensynet til Livsglæden, Friskheden og Sollyset, og for at opnaa dette, maatte jeg male paa en anden Maade end den, man plejede at bruge". Sådan fortæller J.F. Willumsen om sit arbejde med billedet Sol og ungdom fra 1910, der i dag regnes for et hovedværk i nordisk kunst. Sol og ungdom indvarsler en ny arbejdsmetode hos Willumsen, hvor lyset og farverne bliver afgørende elementer i hans malerier. Gennem et utal af skitser, forarbejder og fotografier udforsker han forholdet mellem natur og menneske og forskellen mellem kunst og virkelighed. I bogen I bølgen blå. Willumsen og de badende børn undersøger forskere fra kunsthistorie, litteraturhistorie o...
The Naked Shore
Saturnine and quick-tempered, the formidable North Sea is often overlooked – even by those living within a stone's throw of its steel-grey waters. But as playground, theatre of war and cultural crossing-point, it has shaped the world in myriad ways, forged villains and heroes, and determined the fates of nations. It's not all grim, though: the seaside holiday was born on North Sea beaches, and artists, poets and writers have been as equally inspired by glinting sun on the wave-tops as they have the drama of a winter storm. With a wry eye and a warm coat, Tom Blass travels the edges of the North Sea meeting fishermen, artists, bomb disposal experts, burgermeisters – and those who have found themselves flung to the sea's perimeters quite by chance. In doing so he attempts to piece together its manifold histories and to reveal truths, half-truths and fictions otherwise submerged...
Krøyer og Paris
’Lysets elsker’ kaldte en fransk kritiker i 1912 den store danske maler Peder Severin Krøyer, der i mere end to årtier havde nær tilknytning til den franske kunstscene. Krøyer kom første gang til Paris i 1877, og hans mange breve fortæller om, hvilken betydning den franske kunst havde ikke blot for Krøyers egen udvikling som maler, men også for kunstnerkolonien i Skagen og dansk kunsthistorie. I Krøyer og Paris. Franske forbindelser og nordiske toner beskriver de to kunsthistorikere Mette Harbo Lehmann og Dominique Lobstein Krøyers kunstneriske udvikling fra akademiets guldaldertradition til naturalismen og det moderne gennembrud. De viser, hvordan inspirationen fra Frankrig kan spores i hans maleteknik og i friluftsmalerierne fra Skagen og peger på, hvordan den franske naturalisme satte sig spor i Krøyers særlige stil. Krøyer og Paris er også blevet udgivet på engelsk.
