Since Cezanne (1922) - Paperback

by Clive Bell (Author)

Since Cezanne is a book written by Clive Bell and published in 1922. The book is a collection of essays that discuss the impact of the French artist Paul Cezanne on modern art. Bell was a prominent art critic and a member of the Bloomsbury Group, a group of writers, artists, and intellectuals who were active in the early 20th century. In Since Cezanne, Bell argues that Cezanne's approach to painting, which emphasized the importance of form and structure over color and subject matter, paved the way for the development of modern art. Bell's essays explore Cezanne's influence on artists such as Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, and Henri Matisse, as well as on the broader artistic movements of Cubism and Fauvism. The book is divided into nine chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Cezanne's work and its impact on modern art. Bell's writing is clear and concise, and he provides insightful analysis of Cezanne's paintings and their significance. Since Cezanne is considered a seminal work in the history of art criticism and has been influential in shaping our understanding of modern art. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the development of modern art and the role of Cezanne in that development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
