Gauguin (ART Collection) [9782702211823]

Overview

A thoughtful exploration of the life, art, and legacy of Paul Gauguin, one of the most important artists of the 19th century.

Leading figure of Post-Impressionism, Paul Gauguin was one of the major artists of the 19th century. As an experienced traveler, he drew inspiration from the landscapes he explored for both his paintings and sculptures. Through his early time with the Impressionists, he discovered the depiction of outdoor scenes, helping to revolutionize the treatment of color and light. Building on this experience, he developed a colorful aesthetic characterized by rounded forms, transforming the landscapes of Brittany, Southern France, and Polynesia into representations faithful to the sensations and emotions they inspired. Written by Claire Bernardi, Director of the Musée de l’Orangerie and Chief Heritage Curator, this book offers a detailed and thoughtful reading of the artist's work, providing insight into the uniqueness of both his art and his life.
