Description from the seller

AMEDEO MODIGLIANI - MODIGLIANI, 2001, FINEST SA, ARTBOOK, VERY GOOD

No Reserve Price Auction!

Sublime Art Book by the famous sculptor and painter Amedeo MODIGLIANI, a leading figure of contemporary figurative art movements.

Original edition apparently from 2001 and published, it seems, by Finest Sa. Approx 30.5 x 24.5 cm, fully illustrated art book in generally very good condition.

Some descriptive elements:

"The prism of the legend of the 'cursed artist' has long troubled the vision of Amedeo Modigliani's work. This book invites us to understand his oeuvre with a fresh eye. More generally, it highlights the traits of a society in complete flux that the painter captured: the new role of women (the famous 'Garçonne'), the emphasis on youth and cosmopolitanism. A society he approaches according to social convictions never denying a predilection for popular subjects. As for his style, it draws its roots from the Parisian universe without ever closing in on it: traversing cubism under the supervision of the dealer Paul Guillaume up to a 'cub0-mystical' language, a desire for simplification in Léopold Zborowski's time. The magic exerted especially by the last period (1918-1919), marked by a prolonged stay of the artist on the Côte d'Azur, cannot be grasped without taking into account the elevation of portraits of women, Jeanne, Hanka or Lunia, which balance the rigidities derived from the Greco, the reinvented mannerisms of attitudes, and the luminous material of the palette.
