皮埃尔-奥古斯特·雷诺阿生活和呼吸着的是一种新的艺术风格,对他来说,次印象派画展意义重大,他的画作得到艺术家们的肯定。1873年他搬到了蒙马特并在那里度过了一生,在那里有他需要的“外光”题材,他的模特,以及他的家人。在夏季,雷诺阿大量的室外画作是和莫奈一起完成,有时还有爱德华·马奈。在1877年,在第三次印象派画展,雷诺阿展示了超过二十余幅画作,并且在1880年后,他取得了“持续性的成功”。他受雇于富有的金融家,画作在伦敦和布鲁塞尔,以及1886年在法国乔治·帕蒂举办的第七届国际展览会上展出。

对于克劳德·莫奈,“印象派大师”的称号始终是他自豪的源泉,他始终是一名坚定的印象主义者直到生命终结,或许因为只坚持印象艺术的创作,放弃了很多机会但是他有惊人的天赋作支撑。他只创作风景画,并且他达到了同时代人无可以超越的完美程度。当一个记者问他的画室在哪,他回答道:“我的画室!我从来没有画室,我不明白为什么要把一个人关在屋子里。绘画,是的。涂色,不 。”然后,他指向塞纳河,指向山丘,指着小镇的剪影,他宣称:“这里就是我的画室。”莫奈的一个朋友,作家奥克塔夫·米尔博写到,他完成了一个奇迹,在画布上重新创造出了几乎不可能被捕获的景象:他用无数的倒影把阳光重塑。

Persian Miniatures

文森特·梵高(1853-1890)是传奇,是被诅咒的艺术家神话的化身,是当代艺术的楷模。作为后印象派运动中表现主义画家,他的艺术在他生前备受误解。在荷兰,他研习农民的人物形象,参与了荷兰现实主义绘画运动。梵高一生忧心忡忡,丧心丧意,创作了超过两千幅艺术作品,但只在生前卖出去了一幅。梵高是一位自力更生的画家,他的作品因为粗犷而富含感情之美而闻名于世,是当今艺术市场上为有名的作品之一。
Caravaggio

直到二十世纪中期,长期以来备受争议的意大利画家卡拉瓦乔(Caravaggio,1571-1610)才重新被发现。作为现实主义的倡导者,这位反宗教改革的艺术家挑战陈习旧规,回归圣人形象的人性感。这位神秘的画家赋予了圣人纵欲之情,远远超出了通常的圣人崇拜,为模糊的色情打开了一扇门,这也导致了教廷的愤怒。这位影子画家矛盾而强烈地阐释了他堕落的生活方式和放荡的道德准绳。他所创造的明暗处理技巧,在艺术史上留下了血腥的印象。
Beauty of the Beast

一直以来,艺术家都与动物世界保持着紧密的关系,这样常常是他们灵感的无穷无尽的资源。首先,他们直接从环境中获得灵感。动物是人类的朋友,是亲密的家庭生活的象征,也是天马行空的想象力的起点,因此在艺术中频频出现,特别是在文艺复兴时期备受推崇。在之后的东方主义中,异国动物群出现在动物艺术中,吸引了当代艺术家的目光。动物及其野性的美通过阿尔布雷特·丢勒(Albrecht Durer)、布勒哲尔(Pieter Brueghel)、莱昂纳多·达·芬奇(Leonard da Vinci)、欧仁·德拉克洛瓦(Eugene Delacroix)、亨利·卢梭 (Henri Rousseau)和保罗·克利(Paul Klee)的作品在本书中体现得淋漓尽致。

Bosch

在电子游戏发明之前,希罗尼穆斯波希(Hieronymus Bosch)的笔下就已经创作出了恐怖但丑萌的怪物,还带有一点小幽默。他的作品是自信的宣言,有力地挑战了背叛基督教教义之人的精神恐慌。波希生于1450年,死于1516年,他的出生之时正值文艺复兴的高潮时期,也见证了这一时期的宗教战争。中世纪传统和价值观轰然倒塌,为新世纪的到来开辟了道路。在这样的新世纪里,信念失去了力量和魔力。 ?波希开始警告那些不信教者和对上帝丧失了信仰的人——等待是危险的。波希相信所有人必须要有自己的道德选择,他关注地狱、天堂和欲望的主题,才华横溢地挖掘了水果和植物的象征意义,让他的意向充满了强烈的性欲色彩。这本独特的选集展示了波希为引人入胜的作品,小巧的形式也让它成为了一份完美的礼物。
Goya

Goya is perhaps the most approachable of painters. His art, like his life, is an open book. He concealed nothing from his contemporaries, and offered his art to them with the same frankness. The entrance to his world is not barricaded with technical difficulties. He proved that if a man has the capacity to live and multiply his experiences, to fight and work, he can produce great art without classical decorum and traditional respectability. He was born in 1746, in Fuendetodos, a small mountain village of a hundred inhabitants. As a child he worked in the fields with his two brothers and his sister until his talent for drawing put an end to his misery. At fourteen, supported by a wealthy patron, he went to Saragossa to study with a court painter and later, when he was nineteen, on to Madrid. Up to his thirty-seventh year, if we leave out of account the tapestry cartoons of unheralded decorative quality and five small pictures, Goya painted nothing of any significance, but once in contro

弗里达卡罗(Frida Kahlo)与迭戈里维拉(Diego Rivera)在1928年相识,当年弗里达才21岁,而迭戈42岁。当时迭戈已经是举世闻名的画家,而弗里达还在努力中。 这对备受折磨的组合——特别是对于弗里达来说,在痛苦和磨难中催生了大量艺术创作。弗里达时常处于丈夫的阴影下,忍受着他的不忠和她的妒忌,将所有的痛苦倾注在了画布上,逐渐吸引了公众的目光。在美洲和欧洲两块大陆上,坚定的艺术家宣告着自由的自白书,留下了卓越绝伦的才华。 在这本书中,作者Gerry Souter不仅为我们带来了艺术家的传记,也热情地凸显了这两位二十世纪伟大的墨西哥艺术家之间的联系。

让我们去发现保罗·塞尚(Paul Cezanne)的作品,他对于技巧和形式的探讨定义了绘画的后印象主义运动,也为立体主义的出现搭建了艺术的舞台。他大胆地运用亮丽的色彩,影响了之后好几代艺术家,也让今天的我们感到惊喜和愉悦。这本Mega Square收录了大量这位重要的法国画家的作品——当然,对于任何一位艺术粉丝来说,都是一份至上的礼物。
Picasso

Picasso was born a Spaniard and, so they say, began to draw before he could speak. As an infant he was instinctively attracted to artist’s tools. In early childhood he could spend hours in happy concentration drawing spirals with a sense and meaning known only to himself. At other times, shunning children’s games, he traced his first pictures in the sand. This early self-expression held out promise of a rare gift. Málaga must be mentioned, for it was there, on 25 October 1881, that Pablo Ruiz Picasso was born and it was there that he spent the first ten years of his life. Picasso’s father was a painter and professor at the School of Fine Arts and Crafts. Picasso learnt from him the basics of formal academic art training. Then he studied at the Academy of Arts in Madrid but never finished his degree. Picasso, who was not yet eighteen, had reached the point of his greatest rebelliousness; he repudiated academia’s anemic aesthetics along with realism’s pedestrian prose and, quite naturall
Rembrandt

Rembrandt is completely mysterious in his spirit, his character, his life, his work and his method of painting. What we can divine of his essential nature comes through his painting and the trivial or tragic incidents of his unfortunate life; his penchant for ostentatious living forced him to declare bankruptcy. His misfortunes are not entirely explicable, and his oeuvre reflects disturbing notions and contradictory impulses emerging from the depths of his being, like the light and shade of his pictures. In spite of this, nothing perhaps in the history of art gives a more profound impression of unity than his paintings, composed though they are of such different elements, full of complex significations. One feels as if his intellect, that genial, great, free mind, bold and ignorant of all servitude and which led him to the loftiest meditations and the most sublime reveries, derived from the same source as his emotions. From this comes the tragic element he imprinted on everything he pa
Gustav Klimt
¥110.28
“I am not interested in myself as a subject for painting, but in others, particularly women…”Beautiful, sensuous and above all erotic, Gustav Klimt’s paintings speak of a world of opulence and leisure, which seems aeons away from the harsh, post-modern environment we live in now. The subjects he treats – allegories, portraits, landscapes and erotic figures – contain virtually no reference to external events, but strive rather to create a world where beauty, above everything else, is dominant. His use of colour and pattern was profoundly influenced by the art of Japan, ancient Egypt, and Byzantium. Ravenne, the flat, two-dimensional perspective of his paintings, and the frequently stylised quality of his images form an oeuvre imbued with a profound sensuality and one where the figure of woman, above all, reigns supreme. Klimt’s very first works brought him success at an unusually young age. Gustav, born in 1862, obtained a state grant to study at Kunstgewerbeschule (the Vienna School of
