Download or read book A Sourcebook of Gauguin s Symbolist Followers written by Russell T. Clement and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2004-06-30 with total page 964 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Gauguin (1848-1903) played a seminal role in Post-Impressionist France. In his writings and work, he favored emotional responses to nature over intellectual uses of lines, color, and composition. In 1888 he and Emile Bernard developed a new style called Synthetism. Three groups of Gauguin's symbolist followers—Pont Aven, Les Nabis, and Rose + Croix pursued and extended the Synthetist vision. This sourcebook focuses on the most prominent adherents of the three schools directly affected by Gauguin's symbolism. This is the first comprehensive, single-volume guide and bibliography of artists in these three important French avant-garde movements. This work covers the entire careers of 16 artists by providing biographical sketches, chronologies, citations to primary and secondary literature and exhibitions.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is the second in a series of catalogues devoted to documenting the permanent collections in The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kansas City, Missouri. In this volume on ink-printed graphics, more than six thousand examples are cited, ranging from the 15th to the 20th century. Included are works by many of the leading print-makers of the Western world, some of the impressions being unique and others exceedingly rare." "From the dawn of printing is a group of thirty-two hand-colored woodcuts by unknown German artists, one of the most intact engravings of The Last Supper by the Dutch Master I.A.M. of Zwolle, and both states of Mantegna's Battle of the Sea Gods (Right Half). Among 16th century works are one of the finest known impressions of Durer's St. Jerome in His Study, a unique hand-colored engraving by the Flemish Master S, a singular engraving by Girolamo Mocetto, and chiaroscuro woodcuts by Ugo da Carpi, Agostino Veneziano, and Hendrick Goltzius. Notably representative of the 17th century are a number of Rembrandt's etchings, a splendid impression of Bellange's Martyrdom of St. Lucy, Hollar's Four Seasons, and mezzotints by Blooteling and Dusart. Among distinguished works of the 18th century are a first-edition set of Goya's Caprichos, Descourtis's two finest color intaglios, and etchings of 1748 by Piranesi, as well as a twenty-three-volume bound set of the first Paris edition of all of his antiquarian prints, his sons' additions, and works by their associates. Of the 19th century are Dr. Thornton's Temple of Flora series, Goya's Disasters of War, a superb impression of a Pissarro intaglio, and a unique annotated proof in the complete hand-colored set of Daumier's lithographed Les Cent Robert Macaire. Remarkable among 20th century holdings are proofs of Feininger's Green Bridge and Villon's Red Umbrella, famous posters by Bakst and Thorn Prikker, striking etchings by Nolde, an early lithograph and a monumental acquatint by Picasso, and Lichtenstein's Modern Head series in several media." "Each of one hundred numbered entries written by George L. McKenna discusses a single print, several impressions, or portions of series. Information on the date, size, state, signature, inscriptions, catalogue raisonne numbers, watermark, provenance, and exhibition and publication history of each print precedes the extended text. That text, in essay form, presents relevant biographical detail, analysis of imagery, description of style, and germane critical comment footnoted with reference to publications cited in the bibliography at the end of the book. Depending upon the appearance of the original prints, illustrations are in full color or black and white in facsimile or reduced scale." "Following the one hundred entries is a list of some six thousand other prints in the collection, arranged alphabetically according to nationality, medium, and artist. The title, date, measurements, catalogue raisonne and accession numbers of every print are specified, as well as the names of the donors of gifts. Two hundred and ninety of the prints are reproduced in small black and white plates in close proximity to their locations in the list." "In addition, George L. McKenna has written an introduction which recounts how the print collection has been formed through the years, beginning with the first purchases in 1932."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Prints Abound written by Phillip Dennis Cate and published by Ben Uri Gallery & Museum. This book was released on 2000 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Printmaking exploded with creative energy at the end of the nineteenth century in France. Artists such as Pierre Bonnard, Edouard Vuillard, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Paul Gauguin and Odilon Redon were at the forefront of the avant-garde movement to reinvigorate the applied arts through colour printmaking.Prints Abound probes the phenomenal outpouring of print publications in late nineteenth-century France. Exploring the artistic, technical, economic, commercial and cultural circumstances of 1890s Paris, Prints Abound reaches a fuller understanding of Art Nouveau, which emphasised the fusion of exquisite design with the everyday. The achievements of Bonnard are stressed and his work is represented in depth, with spirited posters, contributions to solo and collective portfolios, designs for music primers and illustrated books, and an outstanding four-panel folding screen of a fashionable street scene in fin-de-siècle Paris.Phillip Dennis Cate, Director of the Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers University, has written the introduction and a text on illustrated books; Richard Thomson, Chair of the Art History Department at the University of Edinburgh, discusses single-artist print albums; and Gale B. Murray, Chair of the Art History Department at Colorado College, considers music illustration.Prints Abound will be fascinating reading for print collectors and dealers, art historians and all those with an interest in this important period of French culture.

Download or read book Gauguin s Vision written by Belinda Thomson and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Paul Gauguin (1848-1903) painted Vision After the Sermon in the summer of 1888 he was a mature artist who had travelled, exhibited and worked in a variety of media. Today the painting is considered a masterpiece, helping to assure Gauguin's fame the world over. Few paintings have given rise to more art historical analysis and critique, more speculation, admiration or recrimination. Accompanying the innovative painting-in-focus exhibition, 'Gauguin's Vision', this book illuminates one of the most intriguing and famous images in the history of western art. This re-examination of the painting, Vision After the Sermon: Jacob Wrestling with the Angel brings together works by Gauguin, his mentors such as Paul C, zanne and Edgar Degas, and younger contemporaries including Emile Bernard, Paul S, rusier, Maurice Denis and Henri van de Velde. It explores the biographical, pictorial and cultural circumstances that enabled Gauguin to make such a radical statement in paint in 1888. This beautifully illu
