Description du livre: Metropolitan Museum of Art/Abrams.
1 Paperback(s), 2000. État : Good
New. Following the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art
movements in France in the 1870s and 80s, Paris in the early 20th
century had become the center of the Western art world. Though many
of the great painters and sculptors there were French, as many more
came from elsewhere, and the School of Paris shared no single
style.
Gertrude Stein, who donated the Metropolitan Museum of Art´s first
Picasso in 1947, suggested that "foreigners belong in France
because they have always been here and did what they had to do
there and remained foreigners there.
Paris was where the 20th century was." Among the 104 color
reproductions here of paintings at the MMoA are works by Ernst and
Balthus, Picasso and Braque, Matisse and Modigliani, Chagall and
Soutine, Miró and Léger.
