Pierre Bonnard: Painting Arcadia
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
Published on the occasion of the exhibition Pierre Bonnard: Painting Arcadia, held in Paris, Madrid and San Francisco in 2015-2016. Pierre Bonnard is often considered a painter of idyllic scenes, replete with colour and serenity. However, this view overlooks many of the most striking aspects of Bonnard's oeuvre. Over the course of his career, Bonnard worked within - often expanding and challenging - many genres and techniques. Alternating between the traditions of Impressionism and the abstract visual modes of modernism, Bonnard addressed elements present within many movements in order to synthesize a world worthy of his utopian vision. Bonnard's work evolved radically over the course of his career. Included in the book's pages are illustrations of well-known examples alongside rarely exhibited pieces, which represent the many thematic and stylistic compositions of Bonnard's work. Hardback with unclipped dustjacket. Jacket has slight tears and creases. Purple coloured boards, with bump at bottom of rear board. Mark on fore-edge. Text is clean and tight. Book weighs 2.6 kg.
