«Il barone Thyssen-Bornemisza ha raccolto una collezione di disegni - in gran parte bozzetti di scena e costumi - che illustrano il teatro della prima metà del XX secolo e soprattutto il balletto, nel suo periodo più interessante e innovativo. Alexander Schouvaloff ha compilato un poderoso catalogo per la descrizione di queste opere. Nella sua introduzione descrive la particolare natura della bozzettistica teatrale, riassume la situazione del teatro in Europa e in Russia alla fine del XIX secolo per inquadrare i disegni in un più preciso contesto storico ed esamina brevemente la figura di ciascun artista».
In questo catalogo vengono descritte 56 opere, in particolare la bozzettistica teatrale, riassumendo la condizine del teatro in Europa e Russia alla fine del XIX secolo. Nel catalogo vero e proprio vengono esaminati nei dettagli i costumi e i bozzetti per i quali sono stati realizzati.

During his lifetime the late Baron Thyssen-Bornemisza acquired a collection of over fifty drawings - largely of set and costume designs - reflecting the theatre of the first half of the twentieth century, and particularly the ballet, during what was surely its most exciting and innovative period. Twenty-two of these drawings are by Leon Bakst, perhaps the most famous of all theatrical designers, whose revolutionary designs for Diaghilev's Ballet Russes played such a major part in the impact that company made during the years 1909-1929.
In addition to works by Bakst, the collection includes drawings by George Barbier, Alexandre Benois, Erte, Alexandra Exter, Nathalie Gontcharova, Michel Larionov, Jose de Zamora and others.

it’s so funny to me Damian made and wore this suit for ONE meeting with his mom 😭
shown in the “Demon or Detective?” backups in Batman (2016) #106 and Detective Comics #1034!
#talia al ghul#damian wayne#when Talia tells Damian “you are just as theatrical as your father” she was right!!#she also sums up how Damian’s kinda at rock bottom at this point so she’s gotta at least find it impressive he made it…#even if it’s a bit silly LOL#if he wore the original full Demon design he could’ve pulled that cape reveal thing for the new Robin suit for maximum drama HAHA#ykw?? he made the redbird outfit for one outing too lol how many costumes does he have lying around#batbabyart

so help me god if I tanked the chance for a well-paid job with full medical benefits, sick leave, paid vacation time, etc. because I hardly ever do machine seam-finishing
I'm going to be. really really really upset
#personal#did a sewing test for a theatrical costuming job at a big local theatre the other day#did my best but I know some of my samples were probably quite wonky because I'm used to finishing seams by hand#and thus having more control to make adjustments as I go#a few I had to look up how to do on my phone- but then the proctor told me I could do that and they do it frequently in the shop#I go back and forth between 'it'll be fine; I probably did fine; they SAID they take all skill levels and that they google how to do things#and 'oh there's no WAY I'm getting this gig'#it was an interesting experience because the shop manager like. stopped me on the street to ask if I made my dress#and then if I would be interested in maybe joining her team#but now I'm like 'are they even going to believe I made the things I sent them pics of'#'or that they saw me wearing [I wore my winter coat to the test because it was V. Cold]'#'after my machine-felling on organza was an uneven disgrace'#I can fit and copy patterns from books and even do a bit of draping#I can do a lot of hand-stitching finishes pretty quickly and evenly#I can do insertion lace and soutache#I've made hats before#but I just. haven't done a lot of machine-finishing#and that's all they tested me on really#also sewing on snaps and one (1) hand-finishing stitch#(one I hardly ever use anyway- catch-stitch/zigzag stitch)#(I fell my hems generally speaking)

My thought process here was basically executors but different kinds of skull
#pathologic#artemy burakh#clara pathologic#im very proud of this clara likeness#thinking more about this… executors are supposed to resemble a Kin deity of death#so like what if the other deities also have theatrical costume representations. That would be fun i think#my art

Non Solo Erté Not Only Erté
Angelo Luerti
Saggio introduttivo di Vittoria Crespi Morbio
Costume Desogn for the Paris Music Hall 198-1940
Guido Tamoni Editore, Schio (Vi) 2006, 288 pagine, 24,5x34,5, ril. in cofanetto
euro 95,00

Il volume intende illustrare l'attività di quei numerosi disegnatori per le riviste dei grandi music-hall di Parigi che, per snobismo artistico ed intellettuale, sono stati a lungo negletti a causa dell'impiego secondario cui erano destinati i loro modelli. Tra questi, Gesmar, un formidabile genio della grafica che impresse all'arte del costume un impulso pari a quello prodotto da Bakst pochi anni prima per i Balletti Russi; Ranson e Zinoview, due grandi eredi di quella tradizione, Czettel, allievo unico di Bakst divenuto più tardi capo disegnatore all'Opera di Vienna; Zig, degno successore di Gesmar anche nell'arte del manifesto; l'ungherese Gyarmathy, autore d'invenzioni sceniche adottate da molti teatri; l'olandese Wittop divenuto in seguito il primo disegnatore di Broadway; Halouze creatore dello "Stile 1925", l'inglese Dolly Tree, uno dei grandi talenti dell'epoca d'oro della creatività, Dessés divenuto più tardi un noto stilista e maestro di Guy Laroche e di Valentino, il milanese Montedoro subentrato in seguito a Vincente Minnelli come capo disegnatore del Radio City Music Hall, per citare solo alcuni. Lo stesso Erté fu vittima per 30 anni di questa tendenza all'emarginazione. Riscoperto nel 1965 in occasione del più generale recupero dell'Art Déco, ora è universalmente apprezzato per la qualità dei suoi disegni, nel frattempo assurti, per il loro valore storico, artistico ed estetico, al rango di vere opere d'arte. L'opera si propone di rendere omaggio ai suoi non meno creativi e qualificati contemporanei, che per obiettive carenze informative sul loro percorso e contributo artistico (ora in gran parte colmate), non furono pur meritandolo oggetto di analoghi studi e altrettanti onori. Va detto che nessuno di costoro visse a lungo quanto Erté, morto nel 1990 all'età di 98 anni: quando giunse il gran momento, il suo archivio era l'unico ricco di disegni originali e documenti a disposizione dei critici teatrali e degli storici. Degli altri grandi artisti, selezionati tra i migliori disegnatori europei, si era persa quasi ogni traccia essendo scomparsi quasi tutti prima della fine della Seconda Guerra Mondiale; di alcuni era noto solo l'acronimo, di altri s'ignorava persino la nazionalità e assai poco si sapeva sui teatri e sulle riviste cui avevano collaborato. A poco valse lo sforzo dei "volontari" ingaggiati da Charles Spencer, nota autorità in materia, e di altri, per saperne di più su questi fantasiosi creatori di scene e costumi. Pur prive di un adeguato supporto informativo molte delle opere dei citati artisti affiancano quelle di Erté nei principali musei, Metropolitan, Victoria & Albert Museum, Arsenal, nelle università di tutto il mondo e nelle collezioni di molti appassionati. Nuove e approfondite ricerche condotte per oltre sei anni hanno permesso di raccogliere un gran volume di dati sul percorso e sul contributo artistico di molti di questi artisti sino a ieri per nulla, o quasi, conosciuti. Il tutto è corredato da un ricco repertorio di opere (oltre 400 immagini a colori), così da permettere a storici e critici una più ampia valutazione dell'arte per il teatro del Novecento e del Déco in generale, periodo in cui si colloca la più parte dei disegni. Il volume comprende inoltre una ampia panoramica sulla storia del music-hall, dalle origini al suo declino, sui principali teatri e riviste in scena negli anni tra le due guerre e sui suoi protagonisti.
Tra gli illustratori, oltre naturalmente a Erté, Georges Barbier, Dany Barry, Umberto Brunelleschi, Fabio Lorenzi, Endré, Eduard Halouze, Dolly Tree, Jose De Zamora, Zig ...

don’t let the superhero costumes fool you they’re just here to shoot people
#my art#hermitcraft#grian#goodtimeswithscar#hotguy#cuteguy#mcyt#desert duo#why is it every time i decide i’m going to Just Draw A Sketch i end up doing multiple full color illustrations#local artist actually draws background 1 dead 6000 injured#it’s kinda fun figuring out the balance between ‘practical archery knowledge’ and ‘superhero theatrics’ when designing these guys#grian’s costume prioritizes aesthetics over practicality/realism whereas scar’s is fairly reasonable from an archery standpoint#and i have no idea what grian’s costume looks like from the back#it’s what he would want#actually the thing i’m most proud of is cuteguy’s bow design#closely followed by that ‘don’t walk’ sign#you gotta admit that’s a really good sign#anyway today’s tiny detail that no one would ever notice in a million years#hotguy is using go-away-green arrows#which is funny for two reasons‚#also this isn’t even possible to see i dont think but the arrowheads are that triple-edged spiral blade banned by the geneva convention#it’s how he got all the scars#but the real question is did i make him hot enough
