He was the first to intentionally draw attention to the materiality of painting--brushstrokes on canvas, rather than a recognizable picture. And he did it before Impressionism. The new research presented in Abstract Pissarro reveals Camille Pissarro's principal role in the birth of modern art. It explores his continual innovation and daring use of new ideas. The many comparisons of his paintings with those of other artists show how he influenced artists of his time and how he continues to inspire artists to this day. Indeed, Camille Pissarro was the first to plant the seeds of what we now call abstract art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 158\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.41 x 8.5 x 11 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 07, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47457404322045,"sku":"9780988568518","price":50.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/U01hM0NRYURGNGZwMURQanBLY0lwZz09.webp?v=1777237571","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/abstract-pissarro-planting-the-seeds-of-abstract-art-paperback","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
