Book Description
In 1971, two years before his death, Picasso offered the Réattu Museum and the city of Arles a collection of 57 drawings that he had produced over a 35-day period. The drawings are among Picasso's last works, and they frequently reprise his familiar figures, summoning up reincarnations, metamorphoses and variations of earlier works. These drawings are also remarkable for their material modesty--Picasso drew on anything lying around his workshop, including pieces of cardboard, packaging wrap, brown paper files and blotter-like supports. The lines are clearly executed in haste, with the fluency of a felt-tip rather than traditional ink. Color is applied with wax crayons, while displaying Picasso's familiar restraint in the range of palette. This French-English bilingual edition presents the full extent of the 1971 donation, and includes a selection of photographic portraits of Picasso by photographers André Villers, Lucien Clergue, Willy Ronis and Robert Doisneau.

Studio of the South
Author: Martin Bailey
Publisher: Frances Lincoln
ISBN: 0711268193
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
"Martin Bailey has written some of the most interesting books on Vincent’s life in France, where he produced his greatest work” - Johan van Gogh, grandson of Theo, the artist’s brother Studio of the South tells the story of Van Gogh’s stay in Arles, when his powers were at their height. For Van Gogh, the south of France was an exciting new land, bursting with life. He walked into the hills inspired by the landscapes, and painted harvest scenes in the heat of summer. He visited a fishing village where he saw the Mediterranean for the first time, energetically capturing it in paint. He painted portraits of friends and locals, and flower still life paintings, culminating in the now iconic Sunflowers. He rented the Yellow House, and gradually did it up, calling it ‘an artist’s house’, inviting Paul Gauguin to join him there. This encounter was to have a profound impact on both of the artists. They painted side by side, their collaboration coming to a dramatic end a few months later. The difficulties Van Gogh faced led to his eventual decision to retreat to the asylum at Saint-Remy. Based on extensive original research, the book reveals discoveries that throw new light on the legendary artist and give a definitive account of his fifteen months in Provence, including his time at the Yellow House, his collaboration with Gauguin and its tragic and shocking ending.
