Art or Craft? Page or Book? Essential or Ancillary? As these pairings propose, illustration engages the viewer in complex interrelated processes and hence functions very differently than other art forms. Image and text operate both independently and in combination as signifiers. Perhaps that is partially why we lack a critical framework with which to assess illustrated books. In this online course, we will use digital tools and collaborative technologies to develop evaluative criteria for the illustrated book and then apply this critical framework to an individually-selected case study. In addition to online learning, you will be handling books in Temple’s significant collection and encouraged to visit other rare book rooms in the area. The seminar will also assess relevant factors impacting the development of illustrated books, such as cultural diffusion and interchange; patterns of literacy and education; production markets and aesthetic value of craft. Additionally, in the last half of the course, the focus shifts to post-1850. We will consider arts and Crafts, livres d’artistes and contemporary artist’s books, addressing publishing technologies, current issues as well as noteworthy avant-garde exemplars. The course is designed to be relevant to Art History, MFA and MEd graduate students. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/1615989198100-BLDKEYEEQFZUF8L0R5OA/352px-Nicolae_Grigorescu_-_Andreescu_la_Barbizon_2.jpg Research, Teaching and Commentary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/0a904fe3-a9a5-4901-9fac-fb548b6bcb67/IMG_2007.jpeg Research, Teaching and Commentary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/1436900365756-GMF8SSQ6S3DN91J7NZ98/P1010114.JPG Research, Teaching and Commentary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/1436963788487-SJ7TXM1LW7PU30X8V4NC/IMG_0549.JPG Research, Teaching and Commentary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/1436964180775-MCQUL8FHT6PRP0PX6X35/Klimt+Judith-I+1901.jpg Research, Teaching and Commentary - Gustav Klimt, Judith I (Judith and Holofernes), 1901 Klimt portrays the heroine without the weapon she used in the biblical account and removed from the urgent need to save her people. Instead of being a warrior, she is a seductress in an erotic fantasy. What does the viewer make of the gorgeous jewel tones that visually function like neck cuffs and bondage straps, binding the flesh to the picture plane? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/1437050836806-RP9YTA1EYZ0DBCWTRS2I/P1180276.JPG Research, Teaching and Commentary - Robert Venturi Vanna Venturi House 1963 to 1964 Stairs define space, use and circulation.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55a52ee4e4b0cfa99454163e/1615988971756-FZ9SSRQBEM61ABZ6F83J/352px-Nicolae_Grigorescu_-_Andreescu_la_Barbizon_2.jpeg Research, Teaching and Commentary COVER IMAGE: Nicolae Grigorescu.
