Gauguin
The Master, the Monster, and the Myth
ISBN: 9788792596307
(HB - EN)
€
Celebrated as one of early Modernism's most important figures, but at the same time condemned for his work and character, Gauguin's legacy remains ambiguous.
The discussion about his art and character has become even more relevant with #MeToo drawing attention to his relationship with under-age girls as well as his share in colonialism in French Polynesia. Nevertheless, Gauguin's status as an artistic genius has remained mostly undisputed.
It is high time to consider the master and the monster inseparable. Through this book the author Flemming Friborg's fascinating view of Gauguin's method is presented as inextricably linked with his moral through a personal and meticulously cared for brand.
