About this title

Review:

The diversity of scholarly voices assembled by Norma Broude in Gauguins Challenge provides a rich variety of perspectives on the artists disputed colonialist imagery of the exotic French Polynesia of the 1890s. Just as Gauguins postimpressionist art challenged the aesthetic, political, racial, and sexual standards of his day, so does his beautiful and disturbing art remain a challenge for us to face up to its complexities and contradictions. This passionate volume shows how productive the unfinished conversation on Gauguin can still be for artists, professors, students, and the general public. --Steven Z. Levine, Leslie Clark Professor in the Humanities, Bryn Mawr College, USA
