First English Language Publication on Antico
The exhibition catalogue, co-published by the National Gallery of Art and Paul Holberton Publishing, is the only available English-language monograph on Antico. It features a series of essays providing an overview of the artist's career—placing Antico's life, work, and technique in a contextual framework critical to understanding his sculptures—and includes the results of technical studies undertaken by object conservators at the National Gallery of Art and The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The catalogue also addresses little-discussed topics, from the chronology of his works to aspects of his technique and his relationship with the Court of Mantua. In addition to essays by Eleonora Luciano, Denise Allen, and Claudia Kryza-Gersch, the catalogue includes contributions by Stephen J. Campbell, professor and chair of the department of art history, Johns Hopkins University; Davide Gasparotto, curator, Galleria Nazionale di Parma; Dylan Smith, Robert H. Smith Research Conservator, National Gallery of Art; Richard Stone, senior museum conservator emeritus, Sherman Fairchild Center for Objects Conservation, The Metropolitan Museum of Art; and Shelley Sturman, senior conservator and head of the department of object conservation, National Gallery of Art.
The 210-page hardcover catalogue includes 163 illustrations.
