Puvis de Chavannes and the Invention of Modernism: Parsing the National Gallery of Art Paintings
October 24 at 2:00 p.m.
East Building Concourse, Auditorium
Aimee Brown Price, art historian, curator, and critic

An artist of pivotal importance to the generation of post-Impressionists from Seurat and Gauguin to Matisse and Picasso, Pierre Puvis de Chavannes (1824-1898) played a crucial role in the history of late-19th-century French art and the development of modernism. He was an artist of great range, originality, and idiosyncratic invention who executed mural complexes, compelling easel paintings, and numerous works on paper. These two companion volumes—a critical study of the artist's life and art, and a catalogue raisonné of his paintings—introduce many of Puvis's works for the first time, assess his contribution, and restore him to the pantheon of modern masters.

Volume I situates Puvis and his work in his time. With a wealth of new documentation, it addresses the theories, forces, and events that impinged on his art. Volume II is a complete compendium of Puvis's easel paintings and mural cycles for civic buildings throughout France as well as for the Boston Public Library.

Book signing of Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, Volume I: The Artist and His Art, and Volume II: A Catalogue Raisonne of the Painted Work follows.

Artist of the Moment: Quang Ho

[description]

At times Colorado artist Quang Ho and his paintings seem to be downright ubiquitous, writes senior editor Bonnie Gangelhoff on the Southwest Art blog. In addition to the many shows he exhibits in, Ho just published a children's book, Ansel and the Great Tree. The book features Ho's original artworks, like the one above, and a charming story penned by his mother-in-law, Rose Switzer.
