A month in Siena / by Matar, Hisham,1970-author.;
"After finishing his powerful memoir The Return, Hisham Matar, seeking solace and pleasure, traveled to Siena, Italy. Always finding comfort and clarity in great art, Matar immersed himself in eight significant works from the Sienese School of painting, which flourished from the thirteenth to the fifteenth centuries. Artists whom he had admired throughout his life, such as Duccio and Ambrogio Lorenzetti, evoke earlier engagements he has had with works by Caravaggio and Poussin, and the personal experiences that surrounded those moments. Complete with gorgeous full-color reproductions of the artworks, A Month in Siena is about what occurred between Matar, those paintings, and the city. That month would be an extraordinary period in Matar's life: an exploration of how art can console and disturb in equal measure, as well as an intimate encounter with the city and its inhabitants. This is a gorgeous meditation on how centuries-old art can illuminate our own inner landscape-- current relationships, long-lasting love, grief, intimacy, and solitude-- and shed further light on the present world around us"--

All things move : learning to look in the Sistine Chapel / by Marshall, Jeannie,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."A deeply personal search for meaning in Michelangelo's frescoes--and an impassioned defence of the role of art in a fractured age. What do we hope to get out of seeing a famous piece of art? Jeannie Marshall asked that question of herself when she started visiting the Sistine Chapel frescoes. She wanted to understand their meaning and context--but in the process, she also found what she didn't know she was looking for. All Things Move: Learning to Look in the Sistine Chapel tells the story of Marshall's relationship with one of our most cherished artworks. Interwoven with the history of its making and the Rome of today, it's an exploration of the past in the present, the street in the museum, and the way a work of art can both terrify and alchemize the soul. An impassioned defence of the role of art in a fractured age, All Things Move is a quietly sublime meditation on how our lives can be changed by art, if only we learn to look."--

Their body of work, encompassing both collaborative and individual pieces, includes nearly nine hundred monuments, memorials, and fine artworks, many of which are preserved in museums and private collections. Unfortunately, all records related to their practice were lost following World War II, after the studio closed due to the deaths of Attilio and Getulio Piccirilli.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
