Gherardo Starnina - Twee op de grond zittende, musicerende engelen

Instruments: Organ (orgel) & Harp


2557-(ok) large.jpg

Information

22/09: Het paneel maakte oorspronkelijk deel uit van een altaarstuk, een polyptiek ofwel veelluik. 
De engelen bespelen instrumenten, links een klein orgel en rechts een harp. De omhoog 
gerichte blik van de linkerengel is een aanduiding van de grotere compositie, waar zij ooit deel van waren.

Volgens Vasari was Gherardo di Jacopo Starnina één van de beroemdste en beste schilders van Florence. Starnina was van 1395 tot 1406 werkzaam in Valencia. In de Spaanse havenstad had hij kennis gemaakt met de Internationale Stijl, die in 1393 door de Duitse schilder Marçal de Sas aldaar was geïntroduceerd. Na zijn terugkeer in Florence gaf Starnina met zijn kalligrafische lijnvoering en delicate expressiviteit een nieuwe impuls aan de Florentijnse schilderkunst. Hij bevrijdde haar van de levenloze formules die van Giotto's grootse stijl waren overgebleven. Zowel Lorenzo Monaco als Lorenzo Ghiberti werden gevormd door Starnina's stijl.

Replica

22/09: The copy will become a digital version of this painting. Made in Illustrator in a certain drawing stye.

Update 23/09: This is a simple approach and needs development. I will use digital techniques to pin point all 
the different colors, but in the end it will become something tangible, not only digital

Through the use of photoshop I put different filters on top of the painting, to see which effect it has on the colors and recognition of the painting

This last filter could be a tool for the digital replica version, maybe I can laser 
cut all  these triangles on a certain material and paint them in all the right colors. 
This filter made me think about this work:

Elisa Strozyk

This colorful table runner is made out of wood. And I am really fascinated by the bright colors and I think I could use this as an inspiration source for this project. Elisa experimented with different kinds of wood and after laser cutting the triangles, she'll stick every piece by hand on the fabric.

With the use of the Kristal filter on the painting, I can pin point each color and put it in a list
In Illustrator I can select every color with the 'pipet' tool, this would only take me forever..

I can also choose to redo the Kristal filter and set the percentage higher, this is the outcome:

Filter Kristal 15%

Filter Kristal 20%

The 20% would be better for me to pin point down the colors. And if I can make this on a big scale, then it doesn't matter that you can't recognize the painting from a close distance, once you step further away your eyes will adapt and you will see all the pixels blend together until you do recognize the painting again.

If you take a closer look at Elisa's work, you see that all the triangles have the same size and are positioned in the same way. But the Kristal filter gives shapes of different sizes and different positions, I quite like this irregularity, so I might try this instead of the same measurements.

Update 01/10: First I want to analyze the work of Gherardo Starnina step by step, so that I understand what he has made. 

In Illustrator I selected most of the colors out of the painting. The paining exists out of a lot of colors, I narrowed them down by making triangles and filled them with the right color.

The end result looks interesting, the angles aren't really recognizable even from a distance:

I want to categorize the colors and make five different color schemes: original, lighter, darker, brighter & softer.

Transformation

22/09: Interesting parts of the paining are: the fabric details and the expression of all the different fabrics, the colors & gradients and the activities of the angles. The angles are making music and this element will come back in the end result. Transform the angles into textile objects/sculptures with a specific shape. Characteristics are texture, textile, color, shape and sound. Experiment with fabric manipulations. With the use of sensors the textile will move and play a sound when someone touches it in a certain way. One will represent the organ (orgel) and the other the harp. The objects will have organic shapes and move on the rhythm of the sounds, so it all looks quite natural but strange at the same time. They will be made of different textile techniques, knit, weave etc. Some by hand some by machine.
