Kako se spasio Wang Fo

12,00 

Kako se spasio WangFo (Comment Wang-Fo fut sauvé) jedan je od malobrojnih tekstova što ih je za djecu napisala slavna francuska spisateljica Marguerite Yourcenar. Smještajući radnju u staru Kinu te uzimajući za glavnog lika slikarskog majstora Wang-Foa, Yourcenar na sebi svojstven maštovito-slikovit način postavlja neka od osnovnih pitanja ljudske egzistencije ali i umjetničkog stvaralaštva. Wang-Fo kao tragatelj za estetskim iskustvom odbacuje materijalni svijet i priznanje, ali njegov kasniji susret s carem pokazujem u kako su umjetnička djela ipak uvijek o svijetu i u svijetu.

How Wang-Fo Was Saved

10,00 

How Wang-Fo Was Saved is one of a very few texts for children written by the great French novelist Marguerite Yourcenar, here translated into Croatian for the first time. In her story, inspired by a Chinese legend, with a master painter as the main protagonist, Yourcenar is posing fundamental questions about humanity and art in a simple, yet striking manner. Searching for the aesthetic pleasure the perfect master Wang-Fo discards the material world and its acclaim. However, an encounter with the Emperor reminds him that works of art are always about the world and part of the world – even if they eventually succeed in becoming a world in their own right and a sort of sanctuary.
