"Bernini was a sculptor, painter and architect and a formative influence as an outstanding exponent of the Italian Baroque. He was an exceptional portrait artist and owes to his father his accomplished techniques in the handling of marble and also an impressive list of patrons that included the Borghese and the Barbarini families. Bernini originally worked in the Late Mannerist tradition but rejected the contrived tendencies of this style. By 1624 he had adopted an expression that was passionate and full of emotional and psychological energy. His figures are caught in a transient moment from a single viewpoint, bursting into the spectator's space. In 1644 such interpretation reaches maturity in his rendition of the vision and Ecstasy of Saint Teresa . The Spanish nun swoons in heavenly rapture at the point of an angel's arrow. The work is a prime example of Bernini's vision of a decorative whole combining different materials and colours within an architectural space. A succession of powerful patrons in Rome and in Paris assured his reputation as an entrepreneurial artist who captured the spirit of the Counter-Reformation. His extreme and intense characterizations have fallen in and out of favor but his Baroque legacy remains intact."

Per visualizzare l'immagine è necessario il Plug-in di Flash. Nacque a Napoli nel 1598 e scomparve a Roma nel 1680. Influenze Classiciste Fu un grande architetto, scultore, scenografo, pittore e autore di teatro. Rappresenta uno dei personaggi dominanti del Seicento italiano; le sue sculture sono caratterizzate dal movimento a spirale e da un pittoricismo che le fa vibrare nello spazio. Lavorò quasi esclusivamente a Roma, da cui si allontanò per pochi mesi nel 1665, chiamato a Parigi per il rinnovamento del Louvre. Ebbe la sua prima educazione artistica sotto la guida del padre Pietro; si formò a Roma, sommando il virtuosismo tecnico del tardo manierismo allo studio del naturalismo ellenistico, le suggestioni dei grandi maestri del Cinquecento al classicismo della pittura dei Carracci. Tale formazione appare evidente nei gruppi marmorei di "Giove fanciullo e la capra Amaltea" del 1615 ca., nel "Ratto di Proserpina" del 1621-22, nel "David" del 1623, in "Apollo e Dafne" del 1622-25. San Pietro Inizia in seguito la lunga serie di opere per S. Pietro, che occupò l'artista per più di quarantanni: il primo lavoro è il "Baldacchino" del 1624-33, col quale sostituì ai tradizionali cibori un'originalissima struttura bronzea, che si inserisce nell'enorme vano sottostante la cupola. Ideò poi il rivestimento di marmi policromi delle navate, realizzò i monumenti funebri di Urbano VII nel 1628-47, di Alessandro VII nel 1671-78, la cappella del Sacramento e la sistemazione del vano absidale con l'immensa "macchina" della cattedra di S. Pietro. Per l'esterno progettò due campanili laterali per la facciata, ma ne venne costruito uno solo e lo si dovette demolire per cedimenti del terreno.

7. Bernini Gianlorenzo Bernini (1598 1680). Selvportræt. Denne side rummer en kortpræsentation og udvalgte værker af den italienske kunstner Bernini. http://fc.silkeborg-gym.dk:4020/2y/bernini.htm

Gianlorenzo Bernini Selvportræt Denne side rummer en kort præsentation og udvalgte værker af den italienske kunstner Bernini. For mange er Bernini indbegrebet af italiensk Barok. Han levede og arbejdede i Rom næsten uafbrudt fra 1605 - 1680. Bernini var multikunstner - skulptør, arkitekt, maler, scenekunstner og dramaforfatter. Men mest kendt er hans skulpturer, hvoraf de fleste er udført i marmor. Han var ikke ret gammel, da Kardinal Scipione Borghese (nevø til Pave Poul V) opdagede hans talent, og for Borghese udførte Bernini en lang række af de værker, som i dag kan ses i Villa Borghese i Rom - bla skabte han Pluto og Proserpina og Apollon og Daphe som I kan se og får kort beskrevet lidt længere nede på denne side. Efter denne præsentation finder I i øvrigt en link til Villa Borghese , hvor I kan møde flere af Berninis skulpturer. Men også som arkitekt vandt Bernini berømmelse. Han blev Peterskirkens arkitekt, og gennem mange år var han direktør for alle offentlige arbejder i Rom. Han fik til opgave at udsmykke Peterskirkens indre (se nederst på siden Peters stol , som er et af Berninis værker i Peterskirken), og han er idémanden bag den mægtige skulpturkolonnade, som indrammer pladsen foran kirken.

Rome, Italy) Giovanni Lorenzo Bernini was born in Naples in 1598, the son of a Florentine sculptor by whom he was trained. After settling in Rome, Bernini came to the attention of the future Pope Urban VIII. Under the patronage of Pope Urban VIII, Bernini spent his entire career in Rome where he gained his architectural fame under Alexander VII (1655-67). Considered the creator of the Baroque style , Bernini created a fusion of architecture, painting, and sculpture that led to the generation of new, dynamic forms. His works used the drama of false perspective and trompe-l'oeil to create an impact that involved the spectator. He also created a much copied palace facade type which he articulated with massive pilasters above a rusticated base. Although Bernini grafted completely new sculptural forms onto Renaissance buildings, he maintained a continuity with the original serenity of the Renaissance ideal.

ART 263 / MAN 263 The Business of Art Gianlorenzo Bernini Gianlorenzo Bernini was born in 1598, the son of a sculptor - as sons often followed in their fathers' careers. (Bernini's father's work can be seen at the bottom of the Spanish steps in Rome in a fountain in the shape of a ship). The elder Bernini moved to Rome in 1605 to work for Pope Paul V. Bernini, by the age 20, was working for Cardinal Borghese. Interestingly enough, although the Church's new rules for art asked for religious imagery, no nudity, the cardinal commissioned many pagan themes for his home. In the Villa Borghese you can see Aeneas and Anchises (1618-19), The Rape of Proserpina 1621-22, Apollo and Daphne (1622-24 as shown to the left) and a religious work, the David of 1623. Bernini also created many fountains for the city of Rome, including the Triton Fountain (1642-3 shown to the right) and the Fountain of the Four Rivers (1848-51). This latter work, however, does have Counter reformation symbolism and was a church commission. The bulk of Benini's work is in St. Peter's. From 1623, until his death in 1680, most of Bernini's time was spent embellishing the

Sant'Andrea al Quirinale Gianlorenzo Bernini The facade The facade is comprised of a large aedicule, with giant Corinthian pilasters, which frames a curving portico supported by two free-standing Ionic columns. Semi-circular steps continue the outward circular flow. The entrance aedicule is repeated inside by an aedicule framing the altar recess. A sculpted St. Andrew rises above the altar-niche, soaring to heaven on stucco clouds. The architecture of the interior is designed to focus attention on this dramatic miracle. View of the low walls extending forward and the contrapuntal motion of the curvature of the church The forward flow of the portico and steps is countered by the concave walls extending outwards and then by the opposite curvature of the church. This dynamic contrapuntal motion is characteristic of Italian Baroque architecture. The portico is surmounted by the Pamphili coats of armsCardinal Camillo Pamphili commissioned the church for novices of the Jesuit order. The church has an oval plan (with the transverse axis longer than the main axis between the entrance and altar). The interior dome is mantled and thus invisible from the outside.

Bernini, Gianlorenzo Contributed By: Edward J. Sullivan The single most important artistic talent of the Italian baroque. Although most significant as a sculptor, he was also highly gifted as an architect; painter; draftsman; designer of stage sets, fireworks displays, and funeral trappings; and playwright. His art is the quintessence of high baroque energy and robustness ( see Baroque Art and Architecture). His ability to suggest textures of skin or cloth as well as to capture emotion and movement in sculpture was uncanny. Bernini reformed a number of sculptural genres, including the portrait bust, the fountain, and the tomb. His influence was widespread throughout the 17th and 18th centuries and was felt by such European masters as Pierre Puget, Pietro Bracci, and Andreas Schlüter. Bernini's life was dominated by his work, and his biography can be traced through the immense number of projects he undertook. His career developed almost entirely in Rome, although he was born in Naples. His father, Pietro Bernini, a talented sculptor of the late Mannerist style, was his son's first teacher ( see Mannerism). Young Gianlorenzo soon surpassed his father in excellence, however, as is known from the principal sources of information on Bernini: the biography by Filippo Baldinucci in 1682 and the biography by the artist's son Domenico in 1713. Many of Bernini's early sculptures were inspired by Hellenistic art (
