Paul Cézanne, een fundamentele post-impressionistische schilder, legde de basis voor de overgang van artistieke concepten uit de 19e eeuw naar de radicaal nieuwe kunst van de 20e eeuw. Zijn werk vormt een brug tussen het impressionisme en het opkomende kubisme, wat hem de invloedrijke titel "vader van ons allen" opleverde van Matisse en Picasso. Cézannes schilderijen tonen een meesterschap in ontwerp, kleur, compositie en tekenkunst, gekenmerkt door gevoelige en verkennende penseelstreken. Hij construeerde minutieus complexe kleervlakken en kleine penseelstreken, waardoor werken ontstonden die zowel een directe expressie van visuele waarneming als een abstractie van de natuur zijn, en die zijn intense studie van onderwerpen en de complexiteit van de menselijke perceptie overbrengen.







Realisten en Impressionisten
Catalogus met uitgebreide beschrijvingen van de tentoongestelde schilderijen.
Paul Cézanne (1839-1906) belonged to the same generation as the founders of French Impressionism, but though he started out as a "plein-air" painter with the same aims as Pissarro and Monet, he soon parted company with them and began to engage in a solitary struggle to achieve an ideal of artistic perfection which goes far beyond the aims of Impressionism and makes him the father of modern art. The forty-nine plates of the present volume span the entire career of this earliest and greatest of modern painters. All the color reproductions are based on specially taken photographs and have been carefully compared to the originals. Several details show the master's brush-strokes in original size. -- Form publisher's description
