Sensual, shimmering, glowing: Pierre Bonnard's spectacular worlds of color.
Resplendent presentation of Post-Impressionist interiors, gardens, and boulevards.
This publication is devoted to a retrospective of the work of Pierre Bonnard (1867-1947), one of the most fascinating painters of the modern era. An outstanding colorist, he aimed to express all kinds of sensory impressions through color. He found his favorite subjects in his personal environment, whereby his homes in Normandy and on the Côte d'Azur played a special role, supplying him with the constellations and inspiration he needed for his colorful paintings. The catalogue features a veritable "maison imaginaire de Bonnard," presenting the themes to which he remained faithful throughout his life. Containing about sixty paintings from international museums and private collections, with the famous scenes of bathers, views of his garden, depictions of everyday life, and the gay hustle and bustle on the streets of Paris, the catalogue provides a new overview of Bonnard's work and his development as an artist.
Exhibition schedule: Fondation Beyeler, Riehen/Basel, January 29-April 22, 2012

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Pierre Bonnard (1867-1947) concocted gentle deliriums of color in quiet domestic scenes: views of a table set for lunch, a garden view, a woman adjusting a bouquet or, most famously, the artist's wife bathing, all infused with an infectious chromatic delight. "It seemed to me that it was possible to translate light, forms and character using nothing but color," he once wrote, "without recourse to values." Bonnard lavishes his domestic scenes with a palpable tenderness that later led to his style (and that of his colleague Eduoard Vuillard) being dubbed "Intimiste." In the 1880s Bonnard was a founding member of the Nabi group, along with his close friends Paul SÃ rusier, Maurice Denis, Paul Ranson and Edouard Vuillard. Their Post-Impressionist aesthetic favored emotional tangibility over observational truth, and their paintings reveled in heightened effects of pattern, prompted by a shared predilection for Japanese decorative arts and prints. In Bonnard's case, this predilection led to an experimentation with many forms, such as lithography, illustration, interior design and photography. For this catalogue and the exhibition it accompanies, the Fondation Beyeler has gathered an extraordinary selection of Bonnard's paintings from institutions and private collections around the world, compiling an ideal introduction to Bonnard's life-affirming vision.
