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.

Book excerpt: Claude Monet (Paris, 1840 – Giverny, 1926) Pour Claude Monet, le qualificatif d'impressionniste est toujours resté un sujet de fierté. Malgré tout ce que les critiques ont pu écrire sur son oeuvre, Monet n'a cessé d'être véritablement impressionniste jusqu'à la fin de sa très longue vie. Il l'a été par conviction profonde, et peut-être a-t-il sacrifié à son impressionnisme beaucoup d'autres possibilités que lui offrait son immense talent. Monet n'a pas peint de compositions classiques avec des personnages, il n'est pas devenu portraitiste, bien que tout cela fût compris dans sa formation professionnelle. Il s'est choisi, en fait, un seul genre, celui du paysage, et il y a atteint un degré de perfection auquel aucun de ses contemporains n'a pu parvenir. Pourtant, le garçonnet avait commencé par dessiner des caricatures. Puis Boudin lui conseilla d'abandonner la caricature et d'opter pour le paysage : c'est que la mer et le ciel, les animaux, les gens et les arbres sont beaux justement dans l'état où les a créés la nature, c'est-à-dire entourés d'air et de lumière. C'est en effet de Boudin que Monet hérita la conviction de l'importance du travail en plein air, conviction qu'il transmit plus tard à ses amis impressionnistes. Monet ne voulut pas entrer à l'École des Beaux-Arts. Il préféra fréquenter une école privée, l'Académie Suisse, fondée par un ancien modèle, quai des Orfèvres, près du pont Saint-Michel. On pouvait y dessiner et peindre un modèle vivant pour une somme modique. C'est là que Monet rencontra le futur impressionniste Camille Pissarro. C'est ensuite dans l'atelier de Gleyre, que Monet rencontra Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley et Frédéric Bazille. Il parlait aussi à ses amis d'un autre peintre qu'il avait également trouvé en Normandie. Il s'agissait de l'étonnant Hollandais Jongkind. «Il fut à partir de ce moment mon vrai maître », disait Monet. «C'est à lui que je dois l'éducation définitive de mon oeil ». Ces paysagistes normands, Boudin et Jongkind, se rangent au nombre des maîtres directs des impressionnistes. En 1871-1872, les paysages de Monet ne se distinguaient pas encore par une grande richesse de coloris ; ils rappelaient plutôt les tonalités de la peinture des artistes de Barbizon ou les marines de Boudin. Il composait une gamme de coloris sur la base de tons marron-jaune et bleu-gris. En 1877, lors de la troisième exposition des impressionnistes, Monet présenta, pour la première fois, une série de tableaux : sept vues de la gare Saint-Lazare. Il les choisit parmi les douze toiles peintes dans la gare. Ce motif, dans l'oeuvre de Monet, est dans la ligne non seulement du Chemin de fer de Manet et de ses propres paysages, avec trains et gare, à Argenteuil, mais aussi de la tendance qui commença à se manifester avec l'apparition des chemins de fer. Un beau matin, il réveilla Renoir avec un cri de victoire : «J'ai trouvé, la gare Saint-Lazare ! Au moment des départs, les fumées des locomotives y sont tellement épaisses qu'on n'y distingue à peu près rien. C'est un enchantement, une véritable féerie ». Il n'avait pas l'intention de peindre la gare Saint-Lazare de mémoire ; il voulait saisir les jeux de lumière du soleil sur les nuages de vapeur qui s'échappaient des locomotives. En 1883, Monet avait acheté une maison dans le village de Giverny, à proximité de la petite ville de Vernon. À Giverny, les séries devinrent une des principales méthodes de travail en plein air de Monet. Quand un journaliste, venu de Vétheuil pour interviewer Monet, lui demanda où se trouvait son atelier, le peintre répondit : «Mon atelier ! Mais je n'ai jamais eu d'atelier, moi, et je ne comprends pas qu'on s'enferme dans une chambre. Pour dessiner, oui, pour peindre, non ». Montrant d'un geste large la Seine, les collines et la silhouette de la petite ville, il déclara : «Voilà mon atelier, à moi » Dès la dernière décennie du XIXe siècle, Monet commença à aller à Londres. Il commençait tous les tableaux à Londres, d'après nature, mais en terminait beaucoup, ensuite, à Giverny. Un ami de Monet, l'écrivain Octave Mirbeau, écrit que Monet avait accompli un miracle : à l'aide de couleurs, il avait réussi à reconstituer sur la toile une matière quasi insaisissable, à reproduire la lumière solaire, en l'enrichissant d'une quantité infinie de reflets. Claude Monet fut le seul parmi les impressionnistes à avoir mené jusqu'au bout une étude presque scientifique des possibilités de la couleur ; il est peu probable qu'on eût pu aller plus loin dans cette direction.

Download or read book Monet written by Claude Monet and published by Hatje Cantz Verlag. This book was released on 2017 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The world's appearance would be shaken if we succeeded in perceiving the spaces in between things as things." These words from the philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty apply to the core of Claude Monet's art in the years between 1880 and the beginning of the twentieth century. While interest usually lies only on the early and late work of this exceptional artist, the catalogue, containing more than fifty works of art, traces the development between these two periods. Accompanied by texts by well-known art historians, the reader is invited to follow Monet's unusual treatment of reflections and shadows in his paintings. It allowed him to break loose from the modalities of representational logic and the pictorial object. And they made room for an aesthetic that helped to do justice to perception itself and to enforce a painting's self-reflexive momentum. Exhibition: Fondation Beyeler Riehen/Basel 22.1.-28.5.2017

Download or read book Claude Monet written by Jason Thompson and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-05-15 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Monet was a founder of French Impressionist painting, and the most consistent and prolific practitioner of the movement's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions before nature, especially as applied to plein-air landscape painting. The term "Impressionism" is derived from the title of his painting Impression, soleil levant (Impression, Sunrise), which was exhibited in 1874 in the first of the independent exhibitions mounted by Monet and his associates as an alternative to the Salon de Paris. Monet's ambition of documenting the French countryside led him to adopt a method of painting the same scene many times in order to capture the changing of light and the passing of the seasons. From 1883 Monet lived in Giverny, where he purchased a house and property, and began a vast landscaping project which included lily ponds that would become the subjects of his best-known works. In 1899 he began painting the water lilies, first in vertical views with a Japanese bridge as a central feature, and later in the series of large-scale paintings that was to occupy him continuously for the next 20 years of his life. claude monet book, claude monet biography, claude monet bio, monet biography, monet bio

The term Impressionism is derived from the title of his painting Impression, Sunrise (Impression, soleil levant). What distinguished Monet from the other Impressionist painters was his innovative idea of creating Series paintings devoted to paintings of a single theme or subject. With the repetitious study of the subject at different times of day Monet's paintings show the effects of sunlight, time and weather through color and contrast. Monet's 'Series paintings' are particularly notable and are among his best known works. The Haystacks and Water Lilies are the most famous however his other series paintings include: Rouen Cathedrals, Houses of Parliament, Poplar Trees among others.

Book excerpt: The life of the great French painter, one of the founders of Impressionism, is narrated in lush comic art reminiscent of his style. From the Salon des Refuses ("Salon of the Rejected") and many struggling years without recognition, money, and yet a family to raise, all the way to great success, critically and financially, Monet pursued insistently one vision: catching the light in painting, refusing to compromise on this ethereal pursuit. It cost him dearly but he was a beacon for his contemporaries. We discover in this comics biography how he came to this vision as well as his turbulent life pursuing it.
