Book excerpt: The reader of this volume of essays is warned at the outset of their probable nature by a quotation which accompanies its dedication to Frederick James Gregg, "Let us promenade our prejudices." Beginning with a chapter on Paul C�zanne, the author, an avowed impressionist, takes up for critical consideration, Rops, the etcher; Monticelli, the "Fada"; Rodin, the Giant; Eugene Carri�re, Degas, Botticelli, Chardin. In Chapter VIII he writes briefly of Six Spaniards-"El Greco," "Velasquez/" Goya, Fortuity, Sorolla, Zuoloaga; and in Chapter X, of nine well-known etchers. Chapter XI is devoted to a discussion of Impressionism, Monet, Renoir, and Manet being in turn considered; and Chapter XV to a series of promenades in the great art galleries of Europe, notes made on a recent tour of rediscovery Though Mr. Huneker declares that the foregoing memoranda are a record of some personal preferences and not at tempts at critical revaluation, they will be found to take on in many instances the form of criticisms and to furnish an estimate of worth. The book is delightfully written, lucid, engaging, and conclusive. Mr. Huneker employs English deftly and to good purpose, his analyses are subtle and at the same time trenchant, his criticism well considered, his style graceful. These essays are not profound, they were not intended to be, but by no means do they read "like a medley of hastily crystallized judgments" as the author expresses a fear that they may. Their sincerity is manifest, the writer's thought is clearly expressed, and the delight which he found in traversing his garden and promenading his dearest prejudices is transmitted to the reader. There are no illustrations, but so vivid are the word pictures that the omission is scarcely remarked. Throughout the book frequent reference is made to the analogy between painting and music, not in a forced manner, but as one who sympathetically comprehends both. --Magazine of Art, Volume 1

Download or read book Pierre Auguste Renoir written by John House and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 1997 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John House examines the many facets of the work and what it reveals about Renoir as a man and artist. He asks, "What did it mean to paint a picture like La Promenade in France in 1870, in the final months of Napoleon III's Second Empire?" The reader is invited to look at the canvas - and Impressionism - as a rejection of the idealist world of academic art and as a challenge to contemporary social norms.

Download or read book Post Impressionists in England written by Barrie Bullen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-03-08 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1988, Post-impressionists in England documents the response of English taste to modern French art from the first Post-Impressionist Exhibition in 1910 to the outbreak of the First World War. The notion of ‘Post-Impressionism’, unlike its earlier counterpart, Impressionism, was an exclusively English contribution to art history. Originally used to denote the work of Cezanne, Van Gogh, Gauguin, Matisse and the Fauve painters, it rapidly assimilated Futurism, Cubism and recent English work like Vorticism. By focusing on one aspect of an important and complex period in British cultural history, J.B. Bullen illuminates not only aesthetic questions but also the way in which those aesthetic issues were determined and conditioned by social and political concerns. Changes in English attitudes to art in this period were so rapid and were modified with such speed that the author has taken a strictly chronological approach to the subject. He sets out clearly the month-by-month developments in English attitudes and traces in detail the debates about modernism in England. To make matters clearer the book is divided into three major parts, each complementary to the others. The introduction surveys the period as a whole and places attitudes to art in the general context of the culture of the time. In the second part the extracts provide selected, concrete and particular examples of the huge range of material upon which the findings of the introduction are based; the writers represented include Roger Fry, Bernard Berenson, Desmond McCarthy, John singer Sargent, Walter Sickert, Clive Bell, Virginia Woolf and Wyndham Lewis. In the third part a chronology sets out in tabular form month-by-month events- exhibitions and major publications- as they occurred in Britain and in France. This is a must read for scholars and researchers of British cultural history and art history.

Download or read book C zanne and the End of Impressionism written by Richard Shiff and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-12-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on a broad foundation in the history of nineteenth-century French art, Richard Shiff offers an innovative interpretation of Cézanne's painting. He shows how Cézanne's style met the emerging criteria of a "technique of originality" and how it satisfied critics sympathetic to symbolism as well as to impressionism. Expanding his study of the interaction of Cézanne and his critics, Shiff considers the problem of modern art in general. He locates the core of modernism in a dialectic of making (technique) and finding (originality). Ultimately, Shiff provides not only clarifying accounts of impressionism and symbolism but of a modern classicism as well.
