Descriere

Brasov - 6 secole de pictura in 28 de capodopere (sec. XV-XX) / Brasov - 6 Centuries of Painting in 28 Masterpieces (XV-XX th.c.)

Editie bilingva romana-engleza

Dezvoltat de timpuriu ca infloritor oras mestesugaresc si comercial, Brasovul a devenit in perioada Renasterii unul dintre cele mai importante centre artistice ale Transilvaniei. In aceste conditii, pictura de sevalet, dar si sculptura si pictura murala, au fost reprezentate prin numeroase creatii de valoare. Pictura brasoveana a cunoscut doua momente de inflorire, mai intai in prima jumatate a secolului XVI si apoi in prima jumatate a secolului XX, cand s-a impus ca un reper incontestabil al artei din spatiul romanesc si sud-estul Europei. Pictura murala din timpanul portalului de sud-est al Bisericii Negre, Fecioara cu Pruncul intre sfintele Ecaterina si Barbara (sfarsitul secolului al XV-lea), este una dintre primele capodopere ale goticului transilvanean. Portretul judelui Lucas Hirscher III (1535), opera a lui Gregorius Pictor / Gregor Moler, este cea mai veche pictura laica de sevalet a artei romanesti, iar Portretul lui Petrus Mederus cu familia sa (1664) este primul portret de grup laic cunoscut in pictura romaneasca. Brasovenii Constantin Lecca si Misu Popp au indeplinit un rol important in evolutia picturii romanesti moderne din secolul al XIX-lea. Dupa 1900 avangarda romaneasca si-a gasit reprezentanti de frunte in Hans Mattis-Teutsch si Hans Eder, artisti prin care expresionismul s-a afirmat in cadrul picturii romanesti interbelice. Traditia picturii brasovene a fost continuata si in perioada postbelica de catre Teodor Rusu, Eftimie Modalca, Friedrich von Bomches si altii. Acest album ilustreaza indelungata istorie a picturii brasovene, intinsa pe durata a peste sase secole de creatie artistica, prin intermediul celor mai importante capodopere din fiecare epoca istorica.
Having developed from an early age as a city of crafts and trade, Brasov became one of the most important art centres of Transylvania during the Renaissance. Within this context, easel painting, but also sculpture and mural painting, were represented by numerous valuable creations. Brasov's painting experienced two flourishing moments, the former in the first half of the 16th century and the latter in the first half of the 20th century, when it established itself as an indisputable landmark of art in Romania and south-eastern Europe. The mural in the tympanum of the south-eastern portal of the Black Church, Virgin Mary and the Child between Saints Catherine and Barbara (late 15th century), is one of the first masterpieces of Transylvanian Gothic. The Portrait of Lucas Hirscher III (1535), painted by Gregorius Pictor / Gregor Moler, is the oldest secular easel painting in Romanian art, and The Portrait of Petrus Mederus With His Family (1664) is the first secular group portrait known in Romanian painting. Constantin Lecca and Misu Popp, both from Brasov, played an important role in the evolution of modern Romanian painting in the 19th century. After 1900, the Romanian avant-garde found its leading representatives in Hans Mattis-Teutsch and Hans Eder, artists due to whom expressionism asserted itself in interwar Romanian painting. The tradition of Brasov painting was continued in the post-war period by Teodor Rusu, Eftimie Modalca and Friedrich von Bomches among others. This album illustrates the long history of Brasov's painting, spread over more than six centuries of artistic creation, through the most important masterpieces of each historical era. - Dr. / PhD Radu Popica
