I got this book a while ago at a thrift store, so I was never expecting it to be perfect, but never before have I seen such disregard fot the sanctity of a book! Even though the evil person took out some of the best of Klimt's paintings this book was still a wonder to behold - all of the remaining art is (of course) beautiful, there was just enough writing to give context, and the reproduction quality was top-notch. ( ) A substantial book (very large format) on Gustav Klimt. The presentation is "coffee table" (as is the size) but the content is perfectly rigourous. All the key aspects of Klimt's personal and artistic life and career are covered and the writing is surprisingly academic. My one criticism is that when a detail is shown from one of the paintings, the caption tends to repeat what the text to the main painting said. This is not a complete listing of Klimt's work, though all the best-known images are included. His lesser-known landscapes are well covered, and will be instantly recognisable to anyone who has visited the Attersee in Austria. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Though controversial in his time, Gustav Klimt's works are today recognized as masterpieces. The Byzantine luxuriance of form, the vivid juxtaposition of colours and the rich symbolism, sensuality and eroticism of his work have made the artist one of the most popular in the world. In this lavish volume his most important and iconic works are arranged thematically, and are accompanied by Rachel Barnes' expert commentary on all aspects of the artist's life, influences and paintings - from the inspiration and provenance of each painting, to the technique used to create it and a list of exhibitions. Featuring some of the most iconic artworks of the late 19th/early 20th centuries - including Judith I, Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer and The Kiss - this sumptuous, hand-finished slipcase edition is a stunning object that any art lover would cherish.
