HARDLY DISCERNIBLE SYNCRETISM, HARDLY ACHIEVABLE SYNTHESIS

Grgo Gamulin ; Sveučilište u Zagrebu

Abstract

This theoretic paper for the Congress on Painter Pordenone in 1984 deals with the pending issue of mannerism in Venetian sixteenth centurv painting. The author once again returns to the previously explored field, trying to determine the differences among several mannerist manifestations in Venice. He emphasises the somewhat neglected phenomenon of Lorenzo Lotto and seeks distinctions regarding Pordenone's »non-functional« synthesis. Within are to be found: why his development suddenly ceased and the mannerism became soother; in what ways he differs from syncretic symbiosis, conventional mannerism and the real synthesis in El Greco's case. The study comprises some other phenomena, including still unresolved questions concerning Venetian 16 c development e. g. the question of substrate which initiated the peculiar growth of different mannerist styles. In this case it is the substrate of the Giorgine - Tizian line of descent, which clashed with the »grand manner« of Central Italy, and on some occasions with Parmigianino.
