Mannerism Movement: History, Characteristics and Artists

How and when did the Mannerism movement emerge?

Mannerism was a reaction to Renaissance classicism, which sought to break away from strict rules and proportions and explore new forms of artistic expression. Mannerist artists emphasized complexity, tension and instability in compositions, moving away from classical harmony and balance. The Mannerist movement emerged in the second half of the 16th century, mainly in Italy. The exact date of its beginning is the subject of debate among scholars, but it is generally placed in the 1520s and 1530s.
Mannerism developed in different ways in different regions of Europe, reflecting the cultural, historical and artistic influences of each place. Although it emerged in Italy, the Mannerist movement spread throughout Europe during the 16th century, leaving its marks on the visual arts, architecture, music, literature and other forms of expression.
In Italy, Mannerism was initially marked by the work of artists such as Rosso Fiorentino, Pontormo, Parmigianino and Bronzino, who e

Pintura do Maneirismo

A Pintura Maneirista é um estilo artístico que predominou na Itália desde o fim da Alta Renascença (ca. 1530) até aproximadamente 1580, quando foi substituído pelo Barroco. Contudo, o Maneirismo nórdico persistiu até o começo do século XVII por grande parte da Europa^[1] até 1610. Iniciou em Roma, na época dos Papas Julio II e Leão X, e se difundiu pelo restante da Itália e Europa.

O termo é também utilizado para se referir a pintores do Gótico tardio no norte da Europa, entre 1500 e 1530, especialmente ao Maneirismo de Antuérpia, um grupo não relacionado ao movimento italiano.

Importantes teóricos Maneiristas forma Giorgio Vasari e Gian Paolo Lomazzo.

Mannerism

Artistic style in Europe and colonies, c. 1550–1600

Mannerism is a style in European art that emerged in the later years of the Italian High Renaissance around 1520, spreading by about 1530 and lasting until about the end of the 16th century in Italy, when the Baroque style largely replaced it. Northern Mannerism continued into the early 17th century.

Mannerism encompasses a variety of approaches influenced by, and reacting to, the harmonious ideals associated with artists such as Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Vasari,^[2] and early Michelangelo. Where High Renaissance art emphasizes proportion, balance, and ideal beauty, Mannerism exaggerates such qualities, often resulting in compositions that are asymmetrical or unnaturally elegant.^[3] Notable for its artificial (as opposed to naturalistic) qualities,^[4] this artistic style privileges compositional tension and instability rather than the balance and clarity of earlier Renaissance painting. Mannerism in literature and music is notable for its highly florid style and intellectual sophi
