Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Featuring an eight-page gallery of full-color illustrations, here is a major new biography of Serge Diaghilev, founder and impresario of the Ballets Russes, who revolutionized ballet by bringing together composers such as Stravinsky and Prokofiev, dancers and choreographers such as Nijinsky and Karsavina, Fokine and Balanchine, and artists such as Picasso, Matisse, Bakst, and Goncharova. An accomplished, flamboyant impresario of all the arts, Diaghilev became a legendary figure. Growing up in a minor noble family in remote Perm, he would become a central figure in the artistic worlds of Paris, London, Berlin, and Madrid during the golden age of modern art. He lived through bankruptcy, war, revolution, and exile. Furthermore he lived openly as a homosexual and his liaisons, most famously with Nijinsky, and his turbulent friendships with Stravinsky, Coco Chanel, Prokofiev, and Jean Cocteau gave his life an exceptionally dramatic quality. Scheijen's magnificent biography, based on extensive research in little known archives, especially in Russia, brings fully to life a complex and powerful personality with boundless creative energy. A New York Times Editor's Choice"An important addition to the large shelf of Diaghilev literature."--Alistair Macauley, The New York Times"An admirable book. A deep and unified account of Diaghilev's personality."--Joan Acocella, The New Yorker"A meaty and rigorously researched new biography."--Jennifer B. McDonald, The New York Times Book Review"An absorbing and dramatic account of an extraordinary individual and his time."--Library Journal. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 00102856703
