Adam: The Male Figure in Art（中图特价艺术书） txt umd azw3 下载 fb2 pdf 在线 免费

　　No image in our culture invokes a more powerful taboo than the

male nude. Yet this subject matter has held a central position in

Western culture-from the idealized beauty of ancient Greek and

Roman statues to the photography an pop media of today.

With lavish illustrations and an incisive, witty text, Adam

reveals a history of the male in art of every medium. This book

shows how the heroic nude traversed the centuries from ancient Rome

to the "peplum" movies of the 1950's; how a tamer, feminized male

made his appearance in flirtatious paintings of the French rococo;

how the Christian shame of nudity was solved in representations of

the crucifixion or images of martyrdom; and how baroque artists

exaggerated male characteristics to create supermales. Work of

artists as diverse as Leonardo, Fragonard, Beardsley, Nadar, and

Weber- and the historic contributions of men from David Bowie to

Arnold Schwarzenegger to the Nuba warrior-combine to make Adam a

fascinating and entertaining romp through the history of art and

sexuality.

This book shows how the heroic nude traversed the centuries from ancient Rome to the "peplum" movies of the 1950's; how a tamer, feminized male made his appearance in flirtatious paintings of the French rococo; how the Christian shame of nudity was solved in representations of the crucifixion or images of martyrdom; and how baroque artists exaggerated male characteristics to create supermales.
