Book excerpt: French painter Georges Braque (1882-1963) was one of the great artistic pioneers of the 20th century. Together with fellow artist and intimate friend Pablo Picasso, Braque is considered a founding father of Cubism, a term first used to describe the fragmented, "cubelike" forms found in many of his most innovative works. Some of Braque's more inventive techniques included mixing pigment with sand and metal filings, and creating compositions of pasted paper collage, known as papier colles.Braque offers more than 70 full-color illustrations of the artist's works, encompassing all phases of his artistic maturity and placing him at the forefront of the early 20th-century art scene.

Book excerpt: The French painter Fernand Léger (1881-1955) was associated with the Cubism of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque during the early years of his career. He did not always fit comfortably within that classification, however, and after serving as an army engineer during World War I, he became fascinated by the mechanical inventions that were changing the course of modern life. Many artists came away from the war embittered by what they had seen of mechanized combat--of such powerful new engines of destruction as the machine gun and the tank--but Leger learned a different lesson. To him, the war instead proved that it was imperative to "humanize" the Machine Age and show its more positive effects on society.--From publisher description.

Book Synopsis The Language of Surrealism by : Peter Stockwell
Download or read book The Language of Surrealism written by Peter Stockwell and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Language of Surrealism explores the revolutionary experiments in language and mind undertaken by the surrealists across Europe between the wars. Highly influential on the development of art, literary modernism, and current popular culture, surrealist style remains challenging, striking, resonant and thrilling – and the techniques by which surrealist writing achieves this are set out clearly in this book. Stockwell draws on recent work in cognitive poetics and literary linguistics to re-evaluate surrealism in its own historical setting. In the process, the book questions later critical theoretical views of language that have distorted our ideas about both surrealism and language itself. What follows is a piece of literary criticism that is fully contextualised, historically sensitive, and textually driven, and which sets out in rich and readable detail this most intriguing and disturbing literature.

Book Synopsis Pablo Picasso by : Dr Enrique Mallen
Download or read book Pablo Picasso written by Dr Enrique Mallen and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2023-03-18 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exactly when Matisse and Picasso first met is open to debate. Their earliest encounter may have taken place during the Matisse retrospective at Galerie Druet right before the 1906 Salon des Indépendants. The latter marked the first time all the Fauves exhibited together. The centerpiece was Matisse’s monumental Le bonheur de vivre. Leo Stein bought the painting while the Salon was still running, regarding it as “the most important work of our time.” This opinion undoubtedly annoyed Picasso. Jealousy of the other man’s success goaded him to greater innovations. In his view, the new art would have to match the sense of endless discovery that science and technology were offering. The 1900 “Exposition Universelle” had already shown the latest marvels in engineering. If painting wanted to keep the public’s attention, instead of merely reproducing what the eye saw, it had to generate its own reality on the surface of the canvas, a reality more vivid than, and bearing only the most cursory resemblance to, anything found in nature. Matisse was also a catalyst in that he was the one who introduced Picasso to African sculptures. Max Jacob recalls: “Matisse took a black, wooden statuette from a table and showed it to Picasso. It was the first piece of Negro wooden art. Picasso held onto it all evening. The next morning, when I arrived at the studio, the floor was strewn with sheets of paper, and on each sheet was drawn the head of a woman; all of them were more or less the same: one eye, an oversized nose attached to the mouth, and a lock of hair on the shoulders. Cubism was thus born” (cited in Janine Warnod, Washboat Days [New York: Grossman Publishers Warnod, 1972, p. 128]).

Book excerpt: The novel tells of a fictitious affair of the heart, so unimaginable, so bizarre, so utterly outré that no one at the time had the faintest idea of its occurrence; (nor would have given it a minute's credence even had a whiff of rumour ever manifested itself). Maurice Ravel was both a musician and a composer, whose creativity rose above the classical and modernist, somehow managing to synthesise both into a singular style, simultaneously exciting and opaque. Yet his persona was under-developed, childlike in many respects, while sexually, he was, what Nietzsche might have described as, a creature ‘yet to be formed'. On the other hand, Colette was a gregarious, outgoing habitué of Paris society and in many ways his polar opposite, a popular writer of stories who had made her own way in the world of musical theatre, and already had two marriages behind her. If ever two opposites had no right to attract it was this pair; so how this affair worked its way into a professional collaboration, uncommon in itself, and somehow worked its way out again to a resolution all of its own, can only now be told, and wondered at!
