Sinopsis
Gran parte dell'umanità si è a lungo preoccupata di questioni fondamentali riguardanti la vita e la morte e l'esistenza di forze soprannaturali che le controllano. Molte religioni del mondo presentano una visione binaria dell'aldilà, in cui il paradiso (o i paradisi) sono contrapposti all'inferno (o agli inferni). Le descrizioni cristiane del paradiso e del mondo dei dannati hanno ispirato per migliaia di anni gli artisti a creare immagini eloquenti, rappresentazioni con finalità didattiche, ma che dire degli artisti provenienti da ambiti eurasiatici non cristiani? Nel XXI secolo, i titoli dei giornali internazionali e la cultura popolare hanno aperto gli occhi sulle immagini del paradiso proposte da religioni non cristiane come l'Islam e il Buddismo. Tuttavia, un numero minore di persone è a conoscenza delle nozioni di inferno e delle relative rappresentazioni che si sono sviluppate in Asia. Prefazioni di Kevin Rudd e Michelle Yun Mapplethorpe.

Hardback. Condición: New. Hell has been embodied and portrayed in terrifying, bizarre, and occasionally humorous incarnations across religions and cultures for millennia. Whether considered as places of eternal or finite punishment, underworlds provide a rich setting for a potent cast of characters that have caught the imaginations of artists and patrons who have shaped the visual cultures of Asia's systems of belief, particularly Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism, and Islam. Through masterpieces from West Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, East Asia, and the diaspora, paired with essays from renowned scholars, this publication explores both differences and similarities in conceptions of the afterlife and artistic practices from religion to religion and culture to culture. This journey through judgment, punishment, and even the pro-mise of salvation sheds light on the fundamental questions of life, death, and existence. Nº de ref. del artículo: LU-9788833671055

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Contemporary popular culture is filled with demonic imagery - from vampires to Goth girls. These subjects in popular culture have roots in eastern and western traditions of depicting hell and its inhabitants, however, few have an understanding of the breadth and depth of religious traditions that make up the foundation of these contemporary phenomena. Comparative Hell is the first comprehensive, fully illustrated catalogue to present traditions of hell imagery and their relationship to the development of ancient and contemporary visual materials in Asia. Through essays by world-renowned scholars of art history and religious studies, as well as detailed object entries and breath-taking images, this cross-cultural volume of artworks explores the common human desire for spiritual transformation and the role of the concept of hell in shaping the visual cultures of Asia's dominant systems of belief: Buddhism, Daoism, Hinduism, and Islam. The publication explores differences in conceptions of the afterlife and artistic practices from religion to religion and culture to culture, organised around the themes of the binary of Hell and Heaven or Paradise; Judgement; Punishment; and Salvation. AUTHORS: Dr. Adriana Proser is John H. Foster Senior Curator for Traditional Asian Art at Asia Society. Phyllis Granoff is the Lex Hixon Professor of World Religions at Yale University. Christiane Gruber is Professor of Islamic Art in the History of Art Department at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. D. Max Moerman is Professor in the Department of Asian and Middle Eastern Cultures at Barnard College, Columbia University. Goh Geok Yian is Associate Chair (Research) and Associate Professor of History at the School of Humanities, Nanyang Technological University Singapore. Michelle Yun is Senior Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at Asia Society Museum. SELLING POINTS: .
