«Картины и слезы» - необычное исследование картин и эмоций, которые они вызывают. В прошлом зрители часто приходили в сильное волнение от картин. Греческие живописцы IV в. до н.э. изображали людей в состоянии глубокой печали, чтобы зритель мог бы сопереживать им. Крик перед картинами был обычным делом в средневековье. Большое количество слез было пролито перед картинами в восемнадцатом столетии, а затем вновь в эпоху романтизма. Почему же последние сто лет был настолько «сухи» по сравнению с ними?
Автор описывает свою встречу с «Экстазом Св. Франциска» Беллини в Собрании Фрика, анализирует эффект, производимый на посетителей часовни Rothko Chapel, разбирает отзывы зрителей о картинах Караваджо, Грёза, Фридриха, Энгра и др. Сотни отзывов людей, разделивших с автором состояние крайней взволнованности перед картинами, становятся объектом исследования об эмоциональной уязвимости и природе искусства.
Art Does art leave you cold? And is that what it's supposed to do? Or is
a painting meant to move you to tears? Hemingway was reduced to tears
in the midst of a drinking bout when a painting by James Thurber caught
his eye. And what's bad about that? In Pictures and Tears, art historian
James Elkins tells the story of paintings that have made people cry.
Drawing upon anecdotes related to individual works of art, he provides a
chronicle of how people have shown emotion before works of art in the
past, and a meditation on the curious tearlessness with which most
people approach art in the present. Deeply personal, Pictures and Tears
is a history of emotion and vulnerability, and an inquiry into the
nature of art. This book is a rare and invaluable treasure for people
who love art. Also includes an 8-page color insert.
