第一个主要的调查揭示了在过去2500年里古典神话对艺术的启发
从伍迪·艾伦和科恩兄弟的电影到玛格丽特·阿特伍德的书和街机之火的歌曲，古典希腊和罗马神话仍然是文化灵感的源泉。英雄们与神、怪物和命运的斗争，无论是胜利还是悲剧，都对我们的想象产生了特别的影响。视觉艺术家长期以来一直在表达和改写这些基础故事。这是第一本将古代、现代和当代艺术家创作的神话艺术作品结合起来的书，从波提切利和卡拉瓦乔到杰夫·昆斯和达米安·赫斯特。
The first major survey to reveal the ways in which Classical mythology has inspired art throughout the last 2,500 years
From the films of Woody Allen and the Coen Brothers to Margaret Atwood's books and Arcade Fire's songs, Classical Greek and Roman myths continue to be a source of cultural inspiration. The struggles of heroes, both triumphant and tragic, with gods, monsters, and fate, exert a particular grip on our imagination. Visual artists have long expressed and reworked these foundational stories. This is the first book to unite myth-inspired artworks by ancient, modern, and contemporary artists, from Botticelli and Caravaggio to Jeff Koons and Damien Hirst.
Review
"Carefully curated into striking and thought-provoking juxtapositions of works, this stunning book unites artworks old and new, highlighting not only the myths themselves but also the development of art from antiquity to present day. Seen through the lens of classical mythology, even well known artworks are shown in a new light, gaining new vigour and relevance when seen alongside modern and contemporary art."—CreativeBoom.com
"Wide-ranging in scope yet highly accessible, Cahill's dynamic study serves as a great introduction to mythology by way of art history and vice versa."—Publishers Weekly Online
"We have no idea. The first proper survey to reveal the ways in which gods and heroes have inspired artists throughout history, Flying Too Close to the Sun dissects the ways in which Greek and Roman myths have exerted a grip on Western culture for more than 3000 years. Featuring over 200 artworks - from literature to Hollywood, music to advertising -- the whole things enclosed in a rather striking orange cover, said to symbolise the fiery sun from the tale of Icarus."—i-D.vice.com
"Highlights the fascinating history of the relationship between myth and art. But as well as juxtaposing ancient and modern pieces, the book explores literary and art theory and provides an insight into the frames of interpretation that make myths, in their many cultural forms, so relevant to us today... But if Flying Too Close To The Sun shows us anything, it's that the power of myth lies in its limitless ability to provide us with whatever interpretation of humanity we might be searching for."—MrPorter.com
"Classical myths have remained a fertile and popular source of subject matter. The art resonates across time, metamorphosing into new forms... Wonderful."—MatureTimes.co.uk
"Despite their fantastic nature, classical myths continue to capture our imaginations because the themes they explore are universal and timeless; love, heroism, ambition, betrayal and family are the foundations of storytelling as we know it. There are few happy endings in mythology, and yet its stories endure because they lend themselves so well to allegory. Whether it's the boy who fell in love with his own reflection or the god who gave us fire, here are five myths that have inspired art, from the Renaissance to now."—AnOtherMag.com
"A knowledge of Greek and Roman mythology that is sketchy at best is perfectly sufficient to dive into Phaidon's mammoth new, coffee-table-worthy book... which brings together art from the last 3,500 years and is beautifully made, with a textured orange cover. There is an especially handy selection of family trees at the end of the book, covering different houses and kingdoms... The chapters bring a variety of stories to colourful life... It's great to see pieces of contemporary and historical art sitting alongside each other, where readers can explore the responses of artists from varying time periods in the same space."—Elephant.art
"Narcissus, Oedipus, and other myths interpreted by artists from as early as the mid-second millennium BC to Tracey Emin, Yayoi Kusama, and Bruce Nauman... The Greek and Roman Gods have long had an affinity with the arts. "We relate to the characters... because their emotions, desires and struggles are our own", write Diane Fortenberry and Rebecca Morrill in the foreword... The breadth of the works shown, and the scope in the periods in which they were made, highlight the long-standing impact that mythology has had on western culture and the art historical canon across centuries of creation."—DazedDigital.com
