Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Georges Seurat AN unbiased mind perceives with stupefaction that even in his first produc tions, even in his youth, he was great. At times he may have been more deli cate, at times more Singular, at times he may have been more of a painter, but he was always great. These words, written by Baudelaire about Eugene Dela croix, are surely relevant to Georges Seurat, who was at once the disciple of the painter of the Massacres of Scio and of Delacr'oix's rival, Ingres. Surely Georges Seurat was great, for he was able to realize unhesitatingly whatever his eye and his intelligence dictated to his brush; the very least of his Sketches bears the Stamp of an incomparable artistic personality; the unsuspected aspect of beings and of things which he perceived and projected on his canvases is today part of our aesthetic patrimony.

Book excerpt: This volume highlights French Post-Impressionist painter and draftsman Georges Seurat's (1859-1891) paintings and graphic works in words and pictures, and presents the artist's inspiration in his numerous preliminary studies for the paintings. Thirty masterpieces are presented in the audio guide in the "Art to Hear" series, and explained with exciting details from the checkered life of the artist. Seurat was a pioneering avant-garde artist who developed the painting technique of pointillism and therewith revolutionized the art world.

Download or read book Georges Seurat written by Christoph Becker and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Known as "the notary" by his contemporaries for his very proper disposition, Georges Seurat (1859-1891), was nonetheless a trailblazing artist, who devised mesmerizing effects in paint, creating what Museum of Modern Art, New York director Alfred Barr described as a "strange, almost breathless poise." Seurat's most famous painting, "La Grande Jatte" (1884), exemplifies the airy suspension of which "Pointillism" (as his style of painting-by-dabs was named) is uniquely capable, a sensation well suited to evoking in paint the sedate pace of Paris' new leisure class. For Seurat, Pointillism was also a way to attain for painting the mathematically explicable harmony of music: "Art is Harmony. Harmony is the analogy of the contrary and of similar elements of tone, of color and of line, considered according to their dominance and under the influence of light, in gay, calm or sad combinations," he declared in a letter to a friend. Seurat's style lent itself especially well to the portrayal of figures in space, and the endowing of those figures with volume and atmosphere. No other visual theme so well illustrates the tremendous innovations in Seurat's paintings and drawings as this handling of the figure, a theme which is at the heart of this new appraisal.
