Max Siedentopf by Nadine Barth Pdf

Paintings League versucht, die uralte Frage zu beantworten: "Wie kann man Kunst für Menschen machen, die normalerweise keine Kunst mögen?" Nach vielen Untersuchungen kam der Künstler Max Siedentopf zu dem Schluss, dass Menschen, die Museen und Galerien meiden, oft dieselben sind, die ihre Zeit lieber mit Fußballgucken verbringen würden. Wenn es mit Sicherheit mehr Fußball- als Kunstfans gibt, warum sollte man sich dann nicht auf dieses neu gewonnene Publikum einstellen? Hier versuchte Siedentopf die Lösung zu finden, indem er eine Reihe von Gemälden schuf, die sowohl den kritischsten Kunstliebhaber als auch den ernsthaftesten Fußballfanatiker erfreuen würden. Paintings League ist eine Hommage an ikonische Fußballmannschaften wie den FC Bayern München, Inter Mailand, den FC Chelsea, Manchester United und den FC Barcelona, indem die ikonischen Trikots der Mannschaften in Acryl auf Leinwand gemalt werden. Kunstliebhaber werden den minimalistischen, abstrakten Ansatz und die Pinselstriche der Gemälde zu schätzen wissen, während Fußballfans sich an den Farben ihrer Lieblingsmannschaft erfreuen können. Genau wie beim Fußball funktionieren die Gemälde wie eine Liga. Jedes Gemälde repräsentiert eine unterschiedliche Gruppe von Menschen durch ihre Interessen, Leidenschaften und Hintergründe und versucht letztendlich, der Champion der Paintings League zu sein.

The Art of Football by Michael Oriard Pdf

The Art of Football is a singular look at early college football art and illustrations. This collection contains more than two hundred images, many rare or previously unpublished, from a variety of sources, including artists Winslow Homer, Edward Penfield, J. C. Leyendecker, Frederic Remington, Charles Dana Gibson, George Bellows, and many others. Along with the rich art that captured the essence of football during its early period, Michael Oriard provides a historical context for the images and for football during this period, showing that from the beginning it was perceived more as a test of courage and training in manliness than simply an athletic endeavor. Oriard’s analysis shows how these early artists had to work out for themselves—and for readers—what in the new game should be highlighted and how it should appear on the page or canvas. The Art of Football takes modern readers back to the day when players themselves were new to the sport, and illustrators had to show the public what the new game of football was. Oriard demonstrates how artists focused on football’s dual nature as a grueling sport to be played and as a social event and spectacle to be watched. Through its illustrations and words The Art of Football gives readers an engaging look at the earliest depictions of the game and the origins of the United States as a football nation.

The Economies of Serious and Popular Art by Hans Abbing Pdf

Combining an economic perspective with sociological and historic insights, this book investigates the separation of ‘popular’ and ‘serious’ art over a period of almost two centuries. As the boundaries between our perceptions of established art and popular become more porous, Abbing considers questions such as: Who benefitted from the separation? Why is exclusivity in the established arts so important? Did exclusivity lead to high cost, high subsidies and high prices? Were and are underprivileged groups excluded from art consumption and production? How did popular music become so successful in the second half of the twentieth century? Why does the art profession remain extraordinarily attractive for youngsters in spite of low incomes? The book also discusses the evolution of art in the twenty-first century, considering for example how the platform economy affects the arts, whether or not the established arts are joining the entertainment industry, and the current level of diversity in art. Written from the dual perspective of the author as an artist and social scientist, the book will be of interest for cultural economists and academics as well as artists and general readers interested in art.

The 1958 Baltimore Colts by George Bozeka Pdf

 The 1958 Baltimore Colts were one of the greatest teams ever in professional football. Owned by the controversial Carroll Rosenbloom and led by head coach Weeb Ewbank and six future Hall of Fame players—Johnny Unitas, Raymond Berry, Lenny Moore, Jim Parker, Art Donovan and Gino Marchetti—they won the NFL title that season, defeating the New York Giants in the first sudden death championship game in NFL history. The Colts laid the foundation for the ultra-popular spectacle football would become with the American public. They were a talented group of players. Many had been rejected or underappreciated at various points in their careers though they were loved and respected by the blue collar fans of Baltimore. This book tells the complete story of the ‘58 Colts and the city’s love affair with the team.

The Changing Social Economy of Art by Hans Abbing Pdf

Is art for everybody? Why do art lovers attach so much value to authenticity, autonomy and authorship? Why did the arts become so serious in the first place? Why do many artists reject commerce and cultural entrepreneurship? Crucially, are any of the answers to these questions currently changing? Hans Abbing is uniquely placed to answer such questions, and, drawing on his experiences as an economist and sociologist as well as a professional artist, in this volume he addresses them head on. In order to investigate changes in the social economy of the arts, Abbing compares developments in the established arts with those in the popular arts and proceeds to outline key ways that the former can learn from the latter; by lowering the cost of production, fostering innovation, and becoming less exclusive. These assertions are contextualized with analysis of the separation between serious art and entertainment in the nineteenth century, lending credence to the idea that government-supported art worlds have promoted the exclusion of various social groups. Abbing outlines how this is presently changing and why, while the established arts have become less exclusive, they are not yet for everybody.
