Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Drawing on scientific studies of pigments and materials, artists' treatises, colourmen's archives, and contemporary and modern accounts, Anthea Callen demonstrates how raw materials and paintings are profoundly interdependent. She analyses the material constituents of oil painting and the complex processes of 'making' entailed in all aspects of artistic production, discussing in particular oil painting methods for landscapists and the impact of plein air light on figure painting, studio practice and display. Insisting that the meanings of paintings are constituted by and within the cultural matrices that produced them, Callen argues that the real 'modernity' of the Impressionist enterprise lies in the painters' material practices."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book California Impressionists written by Susan Landauer and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The years around the turn of the century were a dynamic time in American art. Different and seemingly contradictory movements were evolving, and the dominant style that emerged during this period was Impressionism. Based in part on the broken brushwork and high-keyed palette of Claude Monet, it was a form especially suited to the dramatic landscape and shimmering light of California . . . This book celebrates forty Impressionist painters who worked in California from 1900 through the beginning of the Great Depression . . . it includes widely recognized California artists such as Maurice Braun and Guy Rose, less well known artists such as Mary DeNeale Morgan and Donna Schuster, and eastern painters who worked briefly in the region, such as Childe Hassam and William Merritt Chase . . . The contributors' essays examine the socioeconomic forces that shaped this art movement, as well as the ways in which the art reflected California's self-cultivated image as a healthful, sun-splashed arcadia.

Book Monet s Impression Sunrise

Download or read book Monet s Impression Sunrise written by Claude Monet and published by Editions Hazan, Paris. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In April 1874, thirty artists, among them Monet, Renoir, Pissarro, Cezanne and Degas, participated in an exhibition held in a Paris studio. A scathing review in the newspaper 'Le Charivari' appeared under the title 'The Exhibition of the Impressionists', a derisive play on the title of one of the paintings by Monet on show, 'Impression, soleil levant' (Impression, Sunrise), thus giving this group of artists the name by which they would henceforth be known. This intriguing and colourful biography of Monet's world-famous painting accompanies an exhibition celebrating the 140th anniversary of the First Impressionist Exhibition. Author Biography: Marianne Mathieu is Deputy Director, Head of Collections and Communication of the Musee Marmottan Monet, Paris. Dominique Loebstein is the former head of documentary studies in the painting department of the Musee d'Orsay, Paris. Exhibition: Musée Monet Marottan, Paris, France (18.9.-18.1.2015).
