Isabel Quintanilla: El realismo de lo cotidiano ¿Hiperrealismo? = Isabel Quintanilla: The Realism of the Daily Life. Hyperrealism?.
No full textIsabel Quintanilla is one of the most outstanding members of the so called «Madrilenian Realism», a group that includes a number of artists who choose the reality, especially everyday reality, as a core reason of their work. Following that artistic trend which she has supported since the very beginning of her artistic life, without paying any attention to other tendencies or fashions, Isabel Quintanilla´s paintings reveal the artist’s emotion facing the nature of things. Therefore, and though at first sight her work might be considered close to the American hyper realistic painting (due to the perfection of her brush stroke, some aspects on details or similar subjects), in fact the techniques used by the painter as well as the atmosphere, the lyricism covering her paintings keep her firmly away from that tendency, with which she was so wrongly related to. The following analysis is based on unknown conversations of the author of this study with the artist herself, as well as on opinions of other experts on her painting.Isabel Quintanilla es uno de los miembros más destacados del llamado «realismo madrileño», grupo que encuadra a una serie de artistas que optan por la realidad, especialmente la cotidiana, como razón de ser de su obra. Fiel a esa línea artística que, sin atender a otras tendencias, modas o vanguardias, ha defendido desde que comenzó su andadura en el camino del arte, los cuadros de Isabel Quintanilla nos transmiten la emoción de la artista ante la naturaleza de las cosas. Por ello, y aunque por la perfección de la factura, por algunos aspectos de detallismo o por similitud temática, pudiera parecer, a primera vista, que la obra de Isabel Quintanilla se acerca a la de los hiperrealistas americanos, las técnicas utilizadas por la pintora y la atmósfera, el lirismo que impregnan sus cuadros, la alejan claramente de esta tendencia con la que de forma tan poco adecuada se la comparó y con la que nada tiene que ver.El análisis que sigue está basado en conversaciones inéditas del autor del mismo con la propia artista y en opiniones de otros autores estudiosos de su obra.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
ISABEL QUINTANILLA'S INTIMATE REALISM
No full textreservedTesi riguardante la pittrice spagnola Isabel Quintanilla (1938-2017) e il suo ruolo artistico all'interno del realismo madrileño.
La tesi si concentra sulla vita dell'artista e sul gruppo dei Realistas de Madrid, dedicando un breve inciso sull'essere un'artista donna a metà Novecento. La tesi si dilunga poi sulla carriera dell'artista, concentrandosi sulla sua evoluzione pittorica e sui temi principali da lei toccati . Ad uno di questi è dedicato il terzo capitolo della tesi, che analizza il tema dell'assenza in presenza all'interno di alcuni quadri di Isabel Quintanilla. Nell'ultimo capitolo sono presentati quattro quadri con relativa analisi.
La tesi è maggiormente basata sul catalogo in lingua spagnola "Isabel Quintanilla", scritto da Leticia de Cos Martín, curatrice della mostra tenutasi a Madrid nel 2024, interamente dedicata alla pittrice, intitolata "El realismo intimo de Isabel Quintanilla" - in onore di questa, ho intitolato la mia tesi. La curatrice è anche stata intervistata da me: sfruttando il mio soggiorno in Spagna (Erasmus+ 2023/24), sono riuscita a visitare più volte la mostra e a conoscere colei che le ha dato vita. Inoltre, per la tesi sono state utilizzate altre fonti, tutte in lingua spagnola.Thesis concerning the Spanish painter Isabel Quintanilla (1938-2017) and her artistic role within Madrid realism.
The thesis focuses on the life of the artist and the Realistas de Madrid group, dedicating a brief aside to her being a female artist in the mid-twentieth century. The thesis then delves into the artist's career, focusing on her pictorial evolution and the main themes she touched. The third chapter of the thesis is dedicated to one of these: it analyzes the theme of absence in presence within some of Isabel Quintanilla's paintings. In the last chapter four paintings with related analysis are presented.
The thesis is mostly based on the Spanish-language catalog "Isabel Quintanilla", written by Leticia de Cos Martín, curator of the exhibition held in Madrid in 2024, entirely dedicated to the painter, entitled "El realismo intimo de Isabel Quintanilla" - I titled my thesis in honor of this . The curator was also interviewed by me: taking advantage of my stay in Spain (Erasmus+ 2023/24), I got the chance to visit the exhibition several times and get to know the person who brought it to life. Furthermore, other sources were used for the thesis, all in Spanish
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
