Hatje Cantz - Paul Cezanne: A - Z - Hardcover

Binding: Hardcover
Description: The incomparable play of light and color in Paul Cezanne's work was the foundation of his reputation as a forerunner of modernism. From the start he went his own way and his paintings initially evoked a lack of understanding in art critics of the time as well as ridicule. Despite his romantic baroque impressionist and finally classical influences it is still difficult to ascribe Cezanne to any particular art movement. Still which specific places left lasting impressions on the scion of a provincial banker's family? What and who were major influences supporting and advancing his innovative oeuvre? James H. Rubin traces Cezanne's life and work from A to Z in this brief volume creating an image of a painter who wanted to transform painting itself. The author and established connoisseur succeeds in closely approaching the artist while at the same time maintaining the necessary distance to his inimitable paintings.
