9783836503624: Modigliani (Basic Art)

Synopsis

In endless odes to the female form, Amedeo Modigliani (1884–1920) traced elongated bodies, almond eyes, and his own name into art history. His languid female subjects are as instantly recognizable as they are startling, sensual, and swan-necked.

Modigliani's unique figuration corresponded to his own personal idea of beauty, but drew upon a rich variety of visual influences, including contemporary Cubism, African carvings, Cambodian sculptures, and 13th-century painting from his native Italy. Although most renowned for his nude females, he applied similar stylistic techniques to portraits of male artistic contemporaries such as Pablo Picasso, Jean Cocteau, and Chaïm Soutine.

With key works from his highly individualistic repertoire, this book introduces Modigliani's brief but revered career at the heart of Paris’s early modernist hotbed.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -In endlosen Oden an den weiblichen Körper ermalte sich Amedeo Modigliani (1884-1920) mit langgestreckten Körpern und Mandelaugen seinen Platz in der Kunstgeschichte. Seine aparten Frauenbildnisse, sinnlich und mit Schwanenhals, sind unverkennbar. Diese einzigartigen Figuren entsprangen dem persönlichen Schönheitsideal des Malers, der sich dabei jedoch von zahlreichen visuellen Quellen inspirieren ließ, darunter dem zeitgenössischen Kubismus, afrikanischen Holzschnitzereien, kambodschanischen Skulpturen und der italienischen Malerei des 13. Jahrhunderts. Obwohl vor allem für seine weiblichen Akte bekannt, wandte Modigliani denselben Stil auch auf Porträts männlicher Künstlerkollegen wie Pablo Picasso, Jean Cocteau und Chaïm Soutine an. Dieses Buch stellt einige der wichtigsten Werke Modiglianis vor und zeichnet seine kurze aber steile Karriere im Herzen der Avantgarde in Paris nach. 96 pp. Deutsch. Seller Inventory # 9783836503624
