Book excerpt: In 1910 the critic Roger Fry organized an exhibition at the Grafton Galleries, London, of avant-garde painting which included works by Cezanne, Van Gogh, Gauguin and Matisse. This exhibition became as important a landmark in the official histories of modern art as the subsequent Armory Show in America. These artists did not belong to a single unified movement defined or recognized at the time, and Fry, in a quandary as to what to call the exhibition, and losing patience at the last minute, said, "Oh, let's just call them Post-Impressionists; at any rate, they came after the Impressionists". In this way one of the important critical categories, one of the "isms" of modern art, was born. But "Post-Impressionism" was not a name which Van Gogh, Gauguin, Seurat or Cezanne or any artists of the period would have applied to themselves. The documents in this book, many of which appear in English for the first time, show how artists and critics in the aftermath of Impressionism did describe themselves: how they responded to tradition, to each other and to the kaleidoscope of the contemporary scene. This was a period of reconsideration, of moving on from aspects of Impressionism, and of coming to grips with the isolation that avant-garde art had imposed on the individual artist. It was a period in which the emphasis within Impressionism on the construction of painting purely by means of color had left artists with the question of how the power of this basic form related to their own feelings and to nature. New ideas were coming from poetry as well as painting that laid the basis for modernism. These issues and the personal struggles of the artists themselves are revealed in their letters, and inthe writings of friends and critics, many of whom, such as Mallarme, Laforgue, Huysmans, and Proust were novelists and poets. This book also includes commentaries from Rainer Maria Rilke, Virginia Woolf, and W. H. Auden as well as modern critics, artists, philosophers and art historians: Georges Bataille, Paul Klee, and Meyer Schapiro on Van Gogh; John Berger on Bonnard; Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Clement Greenberg, Adrian Stokes and Lawrence Gowing on Cezanne. The text is illustrated with 119 colorplates and 125 black and white reproductions of contemporary photographs, cartoons, documents, prints and drawings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The return of the revised edition of the most popular volume on French Impressionism, offers inspired, authoritative text and hundreds of exquisite illustrations. The Great Book of French Impressionism celebrates the richness and exuberance of the Impressionists's world—a world of light and color, of sunlit fields and shimmering waterscapes, of bustling city views and intimate domestic scenes. The 400 illustrations in this handsomely designed volume faithfully capture the subtle nuances of light and keen perception that make French Impressionist paintings unique. This edition features recent scholarship, more complete backmatter, and an expanded index. In her thoughtful and cogent text, art historian Diane Kelder traces the development of Impressionism from its roots in landscape and realist painting through its focus on modern urban life to its ultimate goal: to fix on canvas the fleeting moods and effects of nature in an ever-changing world. The author weaves into her narrative fascinating anecdotes and excerpts form contemporary essays and letters, examines in detail the lives and works of all the major Impressionists and Post-Impressionists, including Manet, Monet, Renoir, Degas, Toulouse-Lautrec, Seurat, and Cezanne, and shows how their work influenced others, ultimately giving rise to the new art of the twentieth century.
