Book excerpt: This volume presents a selection of the prints by American artist Mary Cassatt (1844-1926) from the collection of The National Gallery, Canada. As well as being a skillful painter, Cassatt was a gifted printmaker. Cassatt was a friend and collaborator of fellow Impressionist Edgar Degas, and, like him, she often depicted the day-to-day lives of women -- with seamstresses, confiding in companions, and caring for children. In the early 1890s, Cassatt was also inspired by Japanese woodblock prints and as a result, she infused many of her works with striking Asian forms and patterns that were refreshing and technically innovative.

Book excerpt: A close ally of Camille Pissarro, Berthe Morisot and Edgar Degas, Mary Cassatt was the only American painter at the heart of the Impressionist group in Paris. Highly respected on both sides of the Atlantic, Cassatt was a forthright advocate for womens intellectual, creative and political emancipation. She brought her discerning gaze and compositional inventiveness across many media to the subtle social interactions of women in public and private spaces, such as at the theatre, and in moments of intimacy with children, where she was one of the most attentive and unsentimental analysts of the infant body and the childs emerging personality. Tracing key moments in Cassatts long career, art historian Griselda Pollock highlights Cassatts extensive artistic training across Europe, analysing her profound study of Old Masters while revealing her intelligent understanding of both Manet and Courbet. Pollock also provides close readings of Cassatts paintings and her singular vision of women in modernity. Now revised with a new preface, updates to the bibliography and colour illustrations throughout, this book offers a rich perspective on the core concerns of a major Impressionist artist through the frames of class, gender, space and difference.

Download or read book Mary Cassatt written by Frank Getlein and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 1995-01-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Cassatt's paintings and prints have long been treasured as some of the finest examples of Impressionist art. A rebel by the Victorian standards of her time, Mary Cassatt moved from the art schools of staid Philadelphia to the boulevards of Paris, where the young Impressionist movement was flourishing. Degas, her friend and mentor, encouraged her involvement in the new art movement. Cassatt's luminous, observant, and innovative works-chiefly interiors with women and children-helped define Impressionism and have been compared to Raphael's paintings for their beauty and dignity. Frank Getlein, noted art critic and historian, has selected 72 of Cassatt's finest works, each reproduced here in full color. His accompanying text relates the intimate details of her life to her paintings while clearly defining her relation to fellow artists and her place in modern art. The publication of this book marks the first time that so many of Cassatt's paintings and prints, some rarely seen by American audiences, have been made available at a popular price.

Book excerpt: Mary Cassatt (Pittsburg, 1844, Ch'teau de Beaufresne, 1926) Mary est née à Pittsburgh. Son père était un banquier très libéral en matière déducation, et toute la famille semblait manifester une certaine sympathie pour la culture française. Mary navait pas plus de cinq ou six ans lorsquelle vit Paris pour la première fois, et elle était encore adolescente quand elle décida de devenir peintre. Elle se rendit en Italie, puis tourna ses pas vers Anvers, pour retourner à Rome et finalement, revenir à Paris, où, en 1874, elle sinstalla définitivement. En 1872, elle envoya ses premières oeuvres au Salon ; dautres suivirent jusquen 1875, année où elle envoya un portrait de sa soeur, qui fut refusé. Elle devina que le jury navait pas aimé larrière-plan, cest pourquoi elle le retravailla à maintes reprises pour le renvoyer au Salon de lannée suivante, où il fut finalement accepté. A ce moment-là, Degas lui demanda dexposer avec lui et ses amis du groupe des impressionnistes, dont la popularité allait croissant, et elle accepta avec joie. Elle admirait Manet, Courbet, et Degas, et détestait lart conventionnel. Son biographe insiste sur son intellectualité et ses sentiments, sur les émotions et les nuances avec lesquelles elle peignait ses modèle préférés : les bébés et leurs mères. Il parle aussi de son intérêt particulier pour le dessin et sa maîtrise du trait, un don renforcé par son étude approfondie de lart japonais, imitant son style dans des gravures en couleur. Si son style puise à diverses sources, en revanche son dessin, ses compositions, sa lumière et ses couleurs, sont les siennes. Ses toiles possèdent une certaine délicatesse dont peut-être seule une femme est capable, mais les qualités qui ont inscrit son oeuvre dans la postérité, sont, elles, dune nature que seul un peintre extraordinaire peut produire.
