About this book

With nine special subjects, Giotto's art is explored. That's Mary's aisle, Jesus' presentation in the temple, the entry into Jerusalem, the washing of the feet, the wedding in Cana, the infanticide, the cleansing of the temple, Noli me tangere and Mary's annunciation. What is being told to contemporary citizens? What resonates today? Giotto's painterly voice is concentrated with dark humor. His shapes and colors are clear and simple with fixed rhythms. There is balance between the earthly and the heavenly. Humans can act in Giotto's painted world. There is a reality to recognize. The biblical myths are fertilized with relevant material. People are shown the way in the world where the market with trade and money takes up a lot. It does not have to end with mental emptiness, rawness and hard battles in the various cities like Padua, Florence and Siena. There is hope for care and a stronger community. Humans can become robust Med ni særlige emner søges ind i Giottos kunst. Det er Marias tempelgang, Jesus? fremstilling i templet, Indtoget i Jerusalem, Fodvaskningen, Brylluppet i Kana, Barnemordet, Tempelrensningen, Noli me tangere og Marias bebudelse. Hvad fortælles der til samtidens borgere? Hvad giver genlyd i dag? Giottos malerstemme er koncentreret med dulgt humor. Hans former og farver er klare og enkle med faste rytmer. Der er balance mellem det jordiske og det himmelske. Mennesket kan agere i Giottos malede verden. Der er en virkelighed at genkende. De bibelske myter befrugtes med aktuelt vedkommende stof. Menneskene får anvist veje i den verden, hvor markedet med handel og penge fylder meget. Det behøver ikke at ende med mental tomhed, råhed og hårde kampe i de forskellige byer som Padua, Firenze og Siena. Der er håb om omsorg og stærkere fællesskab. Menneskene kan blive robuste.
