Isbn: 9780195038132 - anecdotes of modern art: from rousseau to warhol (14 Ergebnisse)

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Sweeping through the triumphs, miseries and peculiarities of world art in the 20th century, this collection introduces the reader to artists whose personalities are as striking, and occasionally as startling, as their work. There are colourful recollections of Picasso, Braque and Derain fighting poverty and obscurity amidst the gaiety of Paris and of Suzanne Valadon, Modigliani and Utrillo sampling the Bohemian life on Montmartre. But there are darker tales too - of Edvard Munch's struggle with the ghosts of his family; the austere secret life of L.S.Lowry, and the tragic suicide of Arshile Gorky. This anthology attempts to convey the passion, and occasional violence, that has informed the century-long disagreement about how to paint and sculpt. …

"From the hilarity of Picasso's legendary banquet for Le Douanier Rousseau to the grotesque atmosphere of Andy Warhol's 'Factory,' ANECDOTES OF MODERN ART moves through the modern era surveying the triumphs, miseries and peculiarities of the world of art. Perhaps no epoch has witnessed more variety and experimentation than ours, with movements such as Expressionism, Cubism and Surrealism radically reshaping the visual arts---and the artists connected with these revolutions are often as striking and occasionally as startling as the works they created. The anecdotes presented here---touching on almost 200 painters and sculptors---show what these artists were like, how they responded to the world, and how their work is a reflection of themselves." Attractive book, intact & quite presentable.…
