On Wednesday 26 April 2022 in the Columned Hall of the University of Warsaw the book about ancient Palmyra written by Professor Michał Gawlikowski was presented and handed over to the Author.
This monograph of Palmyra presents the history of the city from its beginnings as an oasis in the desert, through flourishing times of Odainat and time of decline to a place of archaeological excavations which started at the beginning of the 20th century.
The present volume brings together a collection of fourteen articles, written in French, German and English, originally published between 1962 and 2011, devoted to different ways in which ecclesiastical teaching shaped the art of medieval Latin Europe, a theme that has preoccupied Professor Piotr Skubiszewski for his entire scholarly career.
On Friday 10 December 2021 in the Columned Hall of the University of Warsaw the volume including selected papers written by Professor Piotr Skubiszewski was presented and handed over to the Author.
Papers included in the volume concern subjects ranging from ecclesiastical narrative cycles carried out during the Italian Middle Ages, to venetian painting including new panels by Giovanni Bellini, to social status of Bernardo Bellotto, to works by Caspar David Firedrich.
IRSA has just published a book by Andréi Nakov concerning the painter Kazimir Malewicz. It is Nakov’s third book on the Russian Avantgarde, after „Kandinsky, the Enigma of the First Abstract Painting” and „Tatlin’s Reliefs: from Cubism to Abstraction”, published by IRSA.
On this occasion we offer a set of these three excellent books and selected issues of “Artibus et Historiae” at discounted prices.
The aim of this book is to question a certain number of anti-modernist visual and cultural prejudices. Advancing ever further in his interpretation of the artist’s œuvre, Andréi Nakov uncovers hidden layers of a creative production that shows itself to be increasingly important to our comprehension of 20th-century modernity.
The book by Stefania Krzysztofowicz-Kozakowska is dedicated to one of the most popular Polish academic painters in late 19th century and his monumental canvas Pieśń wieczorna [Evening song] painted in 1893.
IRSA wants to remember Professor Jan Białostocki. Therefore we want to call your attention on a set of his texts published by IRSA now on special offer.
Papers included in the volume concern subjects ranging from medieval illuminated manuscripts to Renaissance painting, including works by Leonardo da Vinci, to 17th-century works of art.
