What is FUNERARY ART? What does FUNERARY ART mean? FUNERARY ART meaning & explanation.
Funerary art is any work of art forming, or placed in, a repository for the remains of the dead. The term also encompasses cenotaphs ("empty tombs"), tomb-like monuments which do not contain human remains; and communal memorials to the dead (such as war memorials), which may or may not contain human remains.
Funerary art may serve many cultural functions. It can play a role in burial rites, serve as an article for use by the dead in the afterlife, and celebrate the life and accomplishments of the dead, whether as part of kinship-centred practices of ancestor veneration or as a publicly directed dynastic display. It can also function as a reminder of the mortality of humankind, as an expression of cultural values and roles, and help to propitiate the spirits of the dead, maintaining their benevolence and preventing their unwelcome intrusion into the affairs of the living.
The deposit of objects with an apparent aesthetic intention may go back to the Neanderthals over 50,000 years ago, and is found in almost all subsequent cultures—Hindu culture, which has little, is a notable exception. Many of the best-known artistic creations of past cultures—from the Egyptian pyramids and the Tutankhamun treasure to the Terracotta Army surrounding the tomb of the Qin Emperor, the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, the Sutton Hoo ship burial and the Taj Mahal—are tombs or objects found in and around them. In most instances, specialized funeral art was produced for the powerful and wealthy, although the burials of ordinary people might include simple monuments and grave goods, usually from their possessions.
An important factor in the development of traditions of funerary art is the division between what was intended to be visible to visitors or the public after completion of the funeral ceremonies. The Tutankhamun treasure, for example, though exceptionally lavish, was never intended to be seen again after it was deposited, while the exterior of the pyramids was a permanent and highly effective demonstration of the power of their creators. A similar division can be seen in grand East Asian tombs. In other cultures, nearly all the art connected with the burial, except for limited grave goods, was intended for later viewing by the public or at least those admitted by the custodians. In these cultures, traditions such as the sculpted sarcophagus and tomb monument of the Greek and Roman empires, and later the Christian world, have flourished. The mausoleum intended for visiting was the grandest type of tomb in the classical world, and later common in Islamic culture.
Fan Zhang, Senior Associate Curator of Chinese Art at the Asian Art Museum and curator of the exhibition, "Tomb Treasures," guides us through the show and describes the burial customs of the Han dynasty. Zhang highlights objects through an in-depth look at highlights in the exhibition. For more information: http://www.asianart.org/exhibitions/tomb-treasures

Japanese Artist Carves Pearls Into Skull Jewelry
“Vanitas” is carved into many of Nakaba’s skulls. This is Latin for “vanity,” and is likely a reference to 16th-17th century funerary art. Work of this type emphasized the meaninglessness of earthly life “and the transient nature of all earthly goods and pursuits.”
Shinji Nakaba is a Tokyo-based jewelry designer who’s been creating since 1974. Everything he makes is wearable, and Nakaba often uses unconventional materials to create his pieces. These intricately carved pearl skulls are an example of his exceptional work.
“I just want to bring brand new life to something that has no value,” Nakaba tells Magnifico. “I use not only precious metals and stones, but also everyday things, such as aluminum beer cans, plastic bottle, or even garbage,” he explains on Etsy.

Fourth video about the Paleochristian Art serie. Any doubt? Send me a message.
Land of the Art blog: http://landoftheart.blogspot.com.es/
Land of the Art in facebook: https://www.facebook.com/landoftheart
About the Paleochristian art, is the art that develops during the first six centuries after the rise of Christianity. The Peace of the Church, also known as the Edict of Milan, was given in 313, when the freedom of religion in the Roman Empire was established, ending the persecutions. The Edict of Thessalonica stablished in 380 made the christian religion the oficial one.
It is important to see the difference between necropolis and cemetery. The christians do not create necropolis, city of the dead, they create cemeteries, where the people is "sleeping", so is a place to rest meanwhile they go to the heaven in the afterlife. Also, they do not do rich tombs, so the funerary methods are simple.
Important: there is an error in this video, but I can't correct it since I lost the proyect due to my computer was broken. The error is that the first image of Cella Trichora is a Martyrium.
Tropaion: this is the tomb of Saint Pietro, who died martyrized and his followers build a commemorative building.
Cella Trichora: these cellas are chapels to bury. Trichora is of three apses, but can be Dichora, of two apses, or Tetrachora, of four apses. The Cella Trichora of Pécs and the Casón de Jumilla are examples.
Martyrium of La Alberca: a martyrium is a monumentalised funerary construction dedicated to a martyr, that is, someone who died in name of the christian religion. The cubiculum inferius is the down floor, and is where is the tomb itself. The cella superius is the floor in the ground and is where there were ceremonies and libations in honor to the deceased. The riches who built the buildings usually are buried with the martyr, this is called Inhumatio Ad Sanctos, and this is to be salved easily. Finally, the called Fenestella Confessionis is a windows used to see the deceseased by the visitors from outside. Other martyriums are the Martyrium of Saint Anastasius and the Martyrium of Pécs.
Catacombs: the catacombs are well known. Usually is known that the catacombs exist because the christians were pursued, but they built it because the price of the ground was very high. Although it is true that they were pursued. Some destacable catacombs are the ones in Naples or Priscile. They buried the people in arcosoliums (in spanish arcosolio), rectangular area covered with a quarter sphere dome called lunette (in spanish is luneto) with paintings. The lucernariums (in spanish lucernario) were light holes. You can see some paintings, as the Three Jews in the Oven, Daniel and the Lions, the God Shepherd, Jonah, the family of Adam, Adam and Eve, Cure of Paralytic...
The sarcophagus are the great representation of sculpture in this period, because there are reliefs. Remember, they had terror to idolatry, that is why there aren't sculptures in the round yet. A few things about vocabulary, there are three ways that Jesus Christ cures. Adlocutio is by words. Impositio Manuum is by touching. Virga taumaturgica is with a wand. The scenes in the sarcophagus are the same ones as the ones in frescoes.
Sarcophagus of Prosenes: you see some cupids with an epitaph and cornucopias.
Sarcophagus of Via Salaria: you see the God Sheperd among other scenes. Tetrarch age.
Sarcophagus of Jonah: different scenes but the main one is the tale of Jonah and the monster.
Dogmatic Sarcophagus: or Trinity Sarcophagus, there are a lot of scenes here, you can recognize by knowing christian iconography, maybe I should do that in the future, but if you have any doubt, you can ask me. What you have to know basically here is the introduction of the concord, that is the scene in that circular form that means the love between two persons, but not a carnal love, so it can be between two persons of the same sex and family.
Sarcophagus of the Two Brothers: just the same I said in the previous one.
Sarcofagi della Passioni: what is important here is the division of the scenes between architectural spaces (up) and vegetal spaces (down). You see colums dividing the space (up) and trees (down).
Sarcophagus of Junius Bassus: consular production. This is a very amazing sarcophagus because the lot of sculptures it has. Is just that, you can try to recognize the scenes, but you see the same characteristics I have said before.
Sarcophagus of Stilicone: about this sarcophagus I have to say that is a "city gates" sarcophagus, because you see the city in the back.

What is FUNERARY ART? What does FUNERARY ART mean? FUNERARY ART meaning & explanation.
Funerary art is any work of art forming, or placed in, a repository for the remains of the dead. The term also encompasses cenotaphs ("empty tombs"), tomb-like monuments which do not contain human remains; and communal memorials to the dead (such as war memorials), which may or may not contain human remains.
Funerary art may serve many cultural functions. It can play a role in burial rites, serve as an article for use by the dead in the afterlife, and celebrate the life and accomplishments of the dead, whether as part of kinship-centred practices of ancestor veneration or as a publicly directed dynastic display. It can also function as a reminder of the mortality of humankind, as an expression of cultural values and roles, and help to propitiate the spirits of the dead, maintaining their benevolence and preventing their unwelcome intrusion into the affairs of the living.
The deposit of objects with an apparent aesthetic intention may go back to the Neanderthals over 50,000 years ago, and is found in almost all subsequent cultures—Hindu culture, which has little, is a notable exception. Many of the best-known artistic creations of past cultures—from the Egyptian pyramids and the Tutankhamun treasure to the Terracotta Army surrounding the tomb of the Qin Emperor, the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, the Sutton Hoo ship burial and the Taj Mahal—are tombs or objects found in and around them. In most instances, specialized funeral art was produced for the powerful and wealthy, although the burials of ordinary people might include simple monuments and grave goods, usually from their possessions.
An important factor in the development of traditions of funerary art is the division between what was intended to be visible to visitors or the public after completion of the funeral ceremonies. The Tutankhamun treasure, for example, though exceptionally lavish, was never intended to be seen again after it was deposited, while the exterior of the pyramids was a permanent and highly effective demonstration of the power of their creators. A similar division can be seen in grand East Asian tombs. In other cultures, nearly all the art connected with the burial, except for limited grave goods, was intended for later viewing by the public or at least those admitted by the custodians. In these cultures, traditions such as the sculpted sarcophagus and tomb monument of the Greek and Roman empires, and later the Christian world, have flourished.

An important factor in the development of traditions of funerary art is the division between what was intended to be visible to visitors or the public after completion of the funeral ceremonies. The Tutankhamun treasure, for example, though exceptionally lavish, was never intended to be seen again after it was deposited, while the exterior of the pyramids was a permanent and highly effective demonstration of the power of their creators. A similar division can be seen in grand East Asian tombs. In other cultures, nearly all the art connected with the burial, except for limited grave goods, was intended for later viewing by the public or at least those admitted by the custodians. In these cultures, traditions such as the sculpted sarcophagus and tomb monument of the Greek and Roman empires, and later the Christian world, have flourished. The mausoleum intended for visiting was the grandest type of tomb in the classical world, and later common in Islamic culture.

Japanese Artist Carves Pearls Into Skull Jewelry
“Vanitas” is carved into many of Nakaba’s skulls. This is Latin for “vanity,” and is likely a reference to 16th-17th century funerary art. Work of this type emphasized the meaninglessness of earthly life “and the transient nature of all earthly goods and pursuits.”
Shinji Nakaba is a Tokyo-based jewelry designer who’s been creating since 1974. Everything he makes is wearable, and Nakaba often uses unconventional materials to create his pieces. These intricately carved pearl skulls are an example of his exceptional work.
“I just want to bring brand new life to something that has no value,” Nakaba tells Magnifico. “I use not only precious metals and stones, but also everyday things, such as aluminum beer cans, plastic bottle, or even garbage,” he explains on Etsy.

Fourth video about the Paleochristian Art serie. Any doubt? Send me a message.
Land of the Art blog: http://landoftheart.blogspot.com.es/
Land of the Art in facebook: https://www.facebook.com/landoftheart
About the Paleochristian art, is the art that develops during the first six centuries after the rise of Christianity. The Peace of the Church, also known as the Edict of Milan, was given in 313, when the freedom of religion in the Roman Empire was established, ending the persecutions. The Edict of Thessalonica stablished in 380 made the christian religion the oficial one.
It is important to see the difference between necropolis and cemetery. The christians do not create necropolis, city of the dead, they create cemeteries, where the people is "sleeping", so is a place to rest meanwhile they go to the heaven in the afterlife. Also, they do not do rich tombs, so the funerary methods are simple.
Important: there is an error in this video, but I can't correct it since I lost the proyect due to my computer was broken. The error is that the first image of Cella Trichora is a Martyrium.
Tropaion: this is the tomb of Saint Pietro, who died martyrized and his followers build a commemorative building.
Cella Trichora: these cellas are chapels to bury. Trichora is of three apses, but can be Dichora, of two apses, or Tetrachora, of four apses. The Cella Trichora of Pécs and the Casón de Jumilla are examples.
Martyrium of La Alberca: a martyrium is a monumentalised funerary construction dedicated to a martyr, that is, someone who died in name of the christian religion. The cubiculum inferius is the down floor, and is where is the tomb itself. The cella superius is the floor in the ground and is where there were ceremonies and libations in honor to the deceased. The riches who built the buildings usually are buried with the martyr, this is called Inhumatio Ad Sanctos, and this is to be salved easily. Finally, the called Fenestella Confessionis is a windows used to see the deceseased by the visitors from outside. Other martyriums are the Martyrium of Saint Anastasius and the Martyrium of Pécs.
Catacombs: the catacombs are well known. Usually is known that the catacombs exist because the christians were pursued, but they built it because the price of the ground was very high. Although it is true that they were pursued. Some destacable catacombs are the ones in Naples or Priscile. They buried the people in arcosoliums (in spanish arcosolio), rectangular area covered with a quarter sphere dome called lunette (in spanish is luneto) with paintings. The lucernariums (in spanish lucernario) were light holes. You can see some paintings, as the Three Jews in the Oven, Daniel and the Lions, the God Shepherd, Jonah, the family of Adam, Adam and Eve, Cure of Paralytic...
The sarcophagus are the great representation of sculpture in this period, because there are reliefs. Remember, they had terror to idolatry, that is why there aren't sculptures in the round yet. A few things about vocabulary, there are three ways that Jesus Christ cures. Adlocutio is by words. Impositio Manuum is by touching. Virga taumaturgica is with a wand. The scenes in the sarcophagus are the same ones as the ones in frescoes.
Sarcophagus of Prosenes: you see some cupids with an epitaph and cornucopias.
Sarcophagus of Via Salaria: you see the God Sheperd among other scenes. Tetrarch age.
Sarcophagus of Jonah: different scenes but the main one is the tale of Jonah and the monster.
Dogmatic Sarcophagus: or Trinity Sarcophagus, there are a lot of scenes here, you can recognize by knowing christian iconography, maybe I should do that in the future, but if you have any doubt, you can ask me. What you have to know basically here is the introduction of the concord, that is the scene in that circular form that means the love between two persons, but not a carnal love, so it can be between two persons of the same sex and family.
Sarcophagus of the Two Brothers: just the same I said in the previous one.
Sarcofagi della Passioni: what is important here is the division of the scenes between architectural spaces (up) and vegetal spaces (down). You see colums dividing the space (up) and trees (down).
Sarcophagus of Junius Bassus: consular production. This is a very amazing sarcophagus because the lot of sculptures it has. Is just that, you can try to recognize the scenes, but you see the same characteristics I have said before.
Sarcophagus of Stilicone: about this sarcophagus I have to say that is a "city gates" sarcophagus, because you see the city in the back.
