Artur Żmijewski – Plener rzeźbiarski. Świecie 2009. Artysta na polu nauk społecznych wobec zjawisk w przestrzeni industrialnej

Author(s): Bernadeta Stano / Language(s): Polish Issue: 217/2016

This sketch refers to the presence of the artist in the field of social research. The author looks at the situation when the artist on his own initiative enters into the field of scientific research, especially concerning the social effects of the political and economic transformation after 1989. The sculpture and its artistic interpretation were examined in the form of a film by Artur Żmijewski, which came into life during the realization of The Souvenir of Cellulose within the framework of the project Awakening in Świecie in 2009. Both implementations are a kind of group experiment within the wider project Awakening of a curator Karina Dzieweczyńska. The main objective of the artist was to investigate how in an altered socio-economic situation – with the market economy – the form of an open air is working out under the auspices of an industrial plant.

„Prägung. Geblieben sind die Erinnerungen, die gedankenschwer... in meinem Bewußtsein wüten.“ Grafische Verfahren zur Sichtbarmachung von Strukturen des Erinnerns bei Joachim Zintel

Author(s): Paul Martin Langner / Language(s): German Issue: 22/2022

The article describes the aspects of Joachim Zintel’s (Berlin, 1943) graphics that are referred to as typography. In his graphics, the artist processes snippets of memories of the flight from Stettin to Berlin at the end of the World War II. But it is not the historical events that come to the fore in the graphics, but the processes of remembering and forgetting, the themes of images that are characterized by shifts, highlights, obscuring, blurring and gaps.

Skąd wziął się w Krakowie traktat Franciszka Eiximenisa… Ars praedicandi populo? Trzy możliwe drogi

Author(s): Lidia Grzybowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 21/2021

This article aims to present three hypotheses about how the preaching treatise of the Catalan author, Francesc Eiximenis, entitled Ars praedicandi populo, ended up in Krakow in the library of Mikołaj Spycymir. For this purpose, three codices, which contain copies of the Eiximenis treatise, were compared to each other. The article also presented in more detail the biography of Nicolaus Spycymir, the owner of the oldest copy of the treatise. The first two hypotheses are related to the Franciscan Order and diplomatic travels and pilgrimages to Compostela. They seem not to be as well-grounded in the sources as the third hypothesis, which concerns the Polish delegations to the Council of Basel and Council delegations coming to Kraków. One of the delegates of the Council was Marc Bonfill, a Catalan theologian and well-known preacher, associated, like Eiximenis, with the University of Lerida and Girona. The article also pays special attention to Bonfill’s associate, Stanisław Sobniowski, who was a close friend of Spycimir. It is possible that Spycymir obtained the treatise on the preaching arts through these connections (Bonfill or Sobniowski). This hypothesis, however, requires further research.

Córki powietrza. Sen Balladyny: Calderón spotyka Słowackiego w polu literackim…, czyli hiszpańsko-polska comedia colaborada XXI wieku

Author(s): Marta Eloy Cichocka / Language(s): Polish Issue: 21/2021

Literary relations between Poland and Spain are not only the subject of some purely theoretical considerations of this essay, but also a space for creative practice within the literary field, in the sense proposed by Pierre Bourdieu, as a complex network of positions, relations, and rivalries between its participants, individuals, and institutions. The main subject of the article is the process of creating a Polish-Spanish dramatic collage called Daughters of the Air. Balladyna’s Dream (2019) based on Calderon’s and Słowacki’s dramas, grounded in the historical context, from the Polish-Spanish dramaturgical assumptions to the bilingual libretto of the play, which premiered first in Opole and then in Almagro. Such a process of creative rewriting of our classic literature can be compared to the forgotten comedias colaboradas, which were extremely popular in Spain during the Golden Age: those multi-author dramatic adaptations often resulted from a fruitful collaboration between two, three, or even more writers and dramaturges, which nowadays seems somehow more challenging.

Lucjan Rydel i piękna książka

Author(s): Grzegorz Bąbiak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 19/2019

Artistic activity at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries resulted not only in the development of literature and art, but also functional art and crafts, e.g. graphics and book decoration. Apart from artistic press, it was clearly visible in the phenomenon of the so-called beautiful book. The most distinguished artists of that period: Stanisław Wyspiański, Jan Bukowski, Antoni Procajłowicz – designed covers, vignettes and decorations of the best-known literary works. Lucjan Rydel, who found himself among those artists, was a friend of Wyspiański and cooperated with him, which meant that their first joint works heralded the discussed phenomenon at the Vistula River. This big event was the publication of Rydel’s translation of Iliada with the pictures and illustrations by Wyspiański, who also decorated Rydels’ volumes of poetry, using floral motifs, which were typical in his later work. Also other artists in their ornaments have tried to refer to the motifs which were dominant in Rydel’s works. Thanks to this practice, some editions of dramas (1902, designed by A. Procajłowicz) and Bajka o Kasi i królewiczu (1904, designed by S. Dębicki) should be regarded as the most renowned works of the ‘beautiful book’ trend, not only in Poland, but also in East-Central Europe. This paper focuses on the most representative ‘beautiful books’, based on Lucjan Rydel’s works from the period 1896–1911.

Czy Jan Kott stworzył mit? Jeszcze raz o Hamlecie ‘56 Romana Zawistowskiego

Author(s): Wanda Świątkowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 19/2019

The article presents the origins of Hamlet directed by Roman Zawistowski at the Stary Theatre in Krakow (1956) and is an attempt at answering the question: to what extent the famous Jan Kott’s review influenced its reception. The author analyzes the translation of the tragedy, the script of the play, acting, scenography and the historical context. By comparing the reviews with Kott’s interpretation, it is possible to indicate the areas where critics disagree, and at which point Kott’s review becomes opinion-oriented and establishes the reception of Zawistowski’s Hamlet - actually to this day.

SocGoldoni. “Il servitore di due padroni” nell’interpretazione di Krystyna Skuszanka

Author(s): Paulina Kwaśniewska-Urban / Language(s): Italian Issue: 19/2019

The following paper is devoted to the performance of Carlo Goldoni’s comedy The Servant of Two Masters, which was staged in Teatr Ludowy (the Ludowy Theatre) in Nowa Huta. The play, which was directed by Krystyna Skuszanka, is set in the history of the Polish reception of Goldoni’s comedy. The analysis of remarks and comments, which were published by Polish reviewers who watched the play in Nowa Huta in 1957, as well as Italian reviewers who saw the performance a few months later in the Venetian Biennale, is an attempt at showing some basic discrepancies regarding the reception of the play and answering the question about the cause of such differences. In such a short form it is not possible to investigate all the intricacies of reading Goldoni in Poland in the period 50s-60s from an anti-ideological perspective, or to determine a broader historical-cultural context. The paper is only a section of in-depth research conducted by the author.

Jedna, żadna i sto tysięcy. Włoszka jako medium

Author(s): Katarzyna Woźniak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 19/2019

The stake in a heated discussion on reviving tarantism in the Salentian culture by initiators and partcicipants of the project ‘The spider of a dancing god’ was the reinterpretation of the phenomenon itself: tarantism, which was perceived as a thing of the past and an embarrassing social problem, was to become artistically modified, namely isolated from life and displayed on stage. Rejecting tarantism as a folk practice and an attempt at representing it could also be interpreted as turning a blind eye to the problem of a woman’s position in society, without proposing anything in turn. Technological and social progress did not go hand in hand with the emancipation of an Italian woman. Luigi Piradnello in his drama, and Franka Rame in her monodrama captured this phenomenon brilliantly

„Oto znika jednostka, zatraca się i budzi całość, wielkość i potęga”… (O pieśniach polskich Sokołów przed odzyskaniem niepodległości)

Author(s): Magdalena Piotrowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 18/2018

The article is an attempt at analysing ‘Falcon’ hymns dated to the period before 1918. Some research difficulties (lack of research papers, chronological expansiveness, or mass culture affiliation) have been pointed out. Not only the role of a song-book is highlighted (in its numerous editions), but also other forms of those publications (i.e. in the Gymnastic Handbook ”Falcon”), as well as the activity of impressive music societies in that period. Questions are asked about: the role and aim of those hymns; connections with the ideology of the Gymnastic Society ‘Falcon’; connections with national hymns, or the type of affiliation. The author mentions numerous examples of hyms, which have been present in Polish music tradition ever since.

Działalność wydawnicza i graficzna Wiener Werkstätte jako przejaw ruchu artystycznego Arts and Crafts w europejskiej kulturze pierwszej połowy XX w.

Author(s): Agnieszka Łakomy-Chłosta / Language(s): Polish Issue: 20/2022

At the end of the 19th century, an artistic movement called Arts and Crafts emerged in Great Britain. Its premises were eagerly accepted both in other European countries and abroad, e.g., in the United States. One of the examples of workshops that identified with the ideas of this movement was the Wiener Werkstätte (Vienna Workshop). They were founded in Vienna in 1903 by Josef Hoffmann and Koloman Moser. They produced beautiful utilitarian objects designed by artists and made by high-class craftsmen. One of the aspects of Wiener Werkstätte’s activity regarded issuing publications and related graphic designs. The article discusses this area of the studio’s operation, pointing to examples of individual products.

Film jako narzędzie przekazu informacji w literaturze XX wieku

Author(s): Anna Ślósarz / Language(s): Polish Issue: 19/2021

The authors of this article discuss the many different ways in which writer can use the literary affordances of film. Writers present diverse approach to intersubjective codes of cinema, according to the authors, while extremes emerged in literary genres. Moreover, the author’s claim, the attitude writers take to film works and means of expression of the film can be radically different. Authorial approaches range from being fascinated with film methods of presenting reality (Tadeusz Peiper) and using them as a way to stimulate the reader's imagination (Stephen King), to ignoring such methods, regarding them as extremely conventionalized or even trivial (Zbigniew Herbert) and therefore not worthy of interest. The 460 works of ten authors were analysed to find the contexts in which the words film and movie appear. The authors found that Tadeusz Peiper was fascinated by silent films while Zbigniew Herbert, who evaluated them from perspective of time, condemned their conventions. Making references to film assisted Andrzej Stasiuk in presenting local community, and it helped Stephen King gaining global fame. Prominent playwriters either ignored affordances of film in their literary works (e.g. Samuel Beckett and Tom Stoppard) or affordances were key in their dramas: e.g. Tennessee Williams, who used numerous cinematic references to portray his characters; intersubjective communication codes made Williams’s plays popular.

Kırgız Tiyatrosunda Kadının Varoluşu (1920-1990)

Author(s): Gökcan Çelik / Language(s): Turkish Issue: Spec. Iss./2023

According to historical sources, theater is a genre that was introduced into the life of the Kyrgyz people by the state itself after the 1917 October Revolution. The aim was to adopt the socialist ideology of the Soviet Union to a society with a low literacy rate, not through a long-term process such as education, but with a tool that both entertains and teaches. The aim of this study is to briefly touch on the theater history of the Kyrgyz people and to examine in detail the multiple identities of women as individuals in the theater texts of the period. In this context, the main plays that were staged in theaters from the beginning of the Kyrgyz theater until 1990, when the Soviet Union was officially disintegrated, focus on the main problems of Kyrgyz women and include women's types that changed in parallel with the conditions of the period, were examined. Thus, the texture of women's types in the Kyrgyz theater between the years 1920-1990 will be revealed in addition to examining, how the October Revolution affected the Kyrgyz society and family structure, how the Soviet Government handled the women's issue in line with its own ideology, and what changes were made in the place and importance of the Kyrgyz woman in society.

Author(s): Dide Akdağ Satir / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 105/2023

Another important element as important as the formation of historical texture and culture is the protection of the values. Throughout history, communities have used graphic design elements in their designs in the context of the conditions of the period in order to leave traces of their own culture and to ensure the continuity of their visual identity.

The role of graphic design will be examined in the design applications on the determined sample historical textures. In this context, the responsibilities of the graphic designer, what needs to be done to provide a sensitive visual communication in accordance with the rules on and around the historical textures in the cities, and the ways of implementation within the scope of advertising, advertisement and promotion rules will be examined through the examples identified. For the city, which forms the basis of everything related to human beings, it is aimed to think from a different perspective with solutions to protect the historical texture within the framework of environmental graphic design. It is aimed to raise awareness about the relationship between the city, design perception and historical texture.

Author(s): Murat Ateşli / Language(s): English Issue: 109/2023

This article examines the political, social, economic, artistic and cultural developments in the Ottoman Empire during the Second Constitutional Monarchy. In general, Ottoman artists did not focus much on social and political issues in their work during this period, but artists such as Osman Hamdi Bey, Prince Abdülmecid Efendi, Fausto Zonaro, Hüseyin Avni Lifij, İbrahim Çallı, and Mehmet Ruhi Arel were not indifferent to the changes experienced. Artists were interested in the cultural, political, economic and social modernization experiences of the Ottoman rulers and society, but they did not depict these issues with a critical approach in their work. The aim of this research is to identify and interpret the reflections of political and sociocultural developments on works of art during the last years of the reign of Abdülhamid II and the Second Constitutional Monarchy period between 1908 and 1918 when the Committee of Union and Progress was in power. The research is a qualitative study described according to the literature review model. The works of art analyzed in the research are limited to artists and their paintings related to the political, social and cultural developments during Abdülhamid II and the Second Constitutional Monarchy.

УКРАЇНСЬКІ ВІДЛУННЯ В ПІСНЯХ Ф. ШОПЕНА

Author(s): Qingqing Ying / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 43/2023

The purpose of this study is to identify the Ukrainian-Lithuanian core of the Biedermeier lines of F. Chopin's heritage with a focus on his Songs, which objectively represented a significant component of the achievements of his compositional genius. The research methodology is based on the intonation approach of the Asafiev school in Ukraine and China, which focuses on the common genesis of human musical and speech culture and has been developed in the works of leading Ukrainian scholars, including those of D. Androsova, L. Horelik, O. Markova, O. Muravska, Chinese scholars Liu Binqiang, Ma Wei and many other specialists. The scientific novelty of the work is manifested in the originality of the perspective of cognition of F. Chopin's heritage in the organic reliance of the latter on Ukrainian and Lithuanian sources in the line of A. Mickiewicz's "Lithuanianness", as well as in the fact that for the first time a musicological analysis of the symbolism and semantics of the composer's songs, which he wrote from 1829 to 1847, that is, throughout his creative life, is presented. Conclusions. F. Chopin’s songs declare an essential aspect of the embodiment of the "thoughtfulness" (according to I. Belza) of Chopin's heritage, since they implement the highly artistic European "provincialism" that leads, through the discoveries of J. Lenz and M. Gogol, to verism as a powerful trend in European and world art. The Lithuanian-Ukrainian components of "Sarmatism", which nourished the creative discoveries of F. Chopin's entourage in the persons of A. Mickiewicz, S. Witwizki, B. Zalesski and other artists, promoted independent lines of the composer's artistic development. They differed from his Biedermeier performance and Mazurka culture, as well as from the romantic and protosymbolist achievements that dominate the composer's major forms. F. Chopin's songs constitute a line of creative searches, undervalued by both the author himself and art historians of pro-romantic inclination, which are in the direction of realistic and verist principles – the latter were, apparently, unexpected for the author himself, who did not dare to publish miniatures during his lifetime, which he wrote throughout his life.

EFFECTIVE PERIODS IN THE FORMATION OF THE MUSICAL IDENTITY OF GREEK COMMUNITIES

Author(s): Hakan ARYOL,Elvan Karakoç / Language(s): English Issue: 43/2023

The Anatolian lands, which have hosted numerous civilizations, continue to embrace various traditions, cultures, and music despite the passage of centuries. It is an inevitable result that cultures living in the same region for many years leave traces of themselves and that other societies follow and adopt these traces. The issue of how interactions are embraced at common points and the clarity of the results when investigating their origins have not been fully confirmed. In order to better understand how the interaction between cultures unites at basic points, how it becomes an integral part of their lives, how it affects traditions and music, important points in history must be known. This study aims to examine the Anatolian influence on the formation of Greek music using periodical approaches. The research takes a descriptive approach and employs qualitative research methods, particularly document analysis, by reviewing relevant literature in the field. The study falls under the category of descriptive historical research. Sub-objectives have been set in line with the established goal, encompassing “Music of Ancient Greek and Hellenistic Era,” “Music of Roman Era,” “Music of Byzantine and Christian Era,” “Music of Ottoman Empire,” and “Music of Modern Greek Era.”

SHAIKH HAMDULLAH SCHOOL IN THE ART OF TURKISH CALLIGRAPHY: A CASE STUDY FROM THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART

Author(s): Seçil Sever Demir / Language(s): English Issue: 43/2023

The art of calligraphy, also known as "hüsn-i hat" in Islamic culture, involves writing Islamic script in accordance with aesthetic principles. Executed using Arabic letters, this art form emphasizes the aesthetics and meaning of writing. The calligraphers, known as "hattat," adhere to rules to create Imagely pleasing scripts. The essence of calligraphy lies in expressing the aesthetics and essence of writing. Influenced by Islam's emphasis on writing and avoidance of imagery, calligraphy has become one of the most valued forms of Islamic art. This study aims to examine the contributions of the prominent Calligrapher Shaikh Hamdullah (1436-1520), a pioneer of Turkish Calligraphy, to the art through the example of a “thuluth and naskh hadith and poetry panel” Conducted through a literature review, this research delves into the Ottoman calligraphy, aklâm-ı sitte (six scripts), and the Shaikh Hamdullah school, focusing on his muraqqa at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. During the Ottoman era, aklâm-ı sitte styles like thuluth and naskh; muhaqqaq and rihani; tawqi and riq'a, evolved under Hamdullah's influence. His style of naskh calligraphy became the preferred method for transcribing the Quran across the Islamic world, giving rise to the Shaikh Hamdullah School. His contributions encompass Qur'an manuscripts, calligraphic panels, and muraqqas, held in prestigious collections worldwide. The tradition of granting, or certification, has preserved Shaikh's style, allowing his teachings to endure. The discussed artwork, a part of Shaikh's muraqqa album, features thuluth headings and naskh text lines drawn with ink and reed pen on marbled paper. In the work, which represents one of the most ideal example of the thuluth and naskh styles in calligraphy, onyl gold-painted mini flowers and rulers were observed as elements of illumanition.
