Giambologna in Vienna

by | 29 September 2006 | Museums, Renaissance

Giambologna, a star of Viennese collections, gets a thorough look-in at the Bargello (“Giambologna: Gods and Heroes”) and the Kunsthistorisches Museum (“Giambologna: Triumph of the Body”; see Markus Mittringer, Der Standard). In the catalog, Claudia Kryza-Gersch argues that you can reduce Italian Renaissance sculpture to three names: Donatello, Michelangelo, and Giambologna.
