Description
After Impressionism: Inventing Modern Art By Mary Anne Stevens and others Published by National Gallery Global in 2023 This fully illustrated catalogue explores the period of great upheaval in Western art from the late 19th century to the outbreak of World War I. The book delves into the constructive dialogue between painting and sculpture, focusing on the influential roles played by three giants of the era: Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin, and Vincent van Gogh. It also highlights other centres of artistic ferment in Europe, tracing the variety of routes into modernism in the early twentieth century. The catalogue features four essays, introductions to each city of ferment, and biographies of the artists. With its unique perspective on this pivotal moment in art history, After Impressionism: Inventing Modern Art offers a fresh understanding of the period that gave rise to modern art. Published by National Gallery Global and distributed by Yale University Press, this book is accompanied by an exhibition schedule at The National Gallery, London from 25 March-13 August 2023.
