This listing is for the oversized hardcover (with dust jacket) titled Van Gogh and Gauguin: The Studio of the South By Douglas W. Druick, Peter Kort Zegers, Britt Salvesen (Collaborator) 418 pages Publisher: Thames & Hudson (2001) ISBN: 0500510547 This is a large book that measure approx. 10x 13x 2 and weighs about 7 lbs and will be shipped via media mail due to weight it is still sealed in plastic although a portion of the top edge of the plastic has been torn and retaped closed. There is a “ding” into the page edge (see pic but no major damage) to this unread book. About this book: To accompany the Art Institute of Chicago blockbuster van Gogh and Gauguin exhibit, here’s a blockbuster book, with reproductions of such sensuous beauty that they are likely to convert even nonfans of the squabbling yet eternally linked pair. This book’s subtitle is a translation of a phrase van Gogh used, more accurately rendered as “The Studio in Southern France,” where van Gogh and Gauguin were in close contact, inspiring and antagonizing one another in a way that has fascinated generations of poets, playwrights, screenwriters and even art historians. The most famous van Gogh paintings, like Starry Night and Sunflowers, are put into context here, and there is room also for early, lesser-known works. Four major chapters “Origins,” “Encounters,” “South Versus North,” “The Studio of the South” are followed by a chapter of letters exchanged by the two artists; a “coda” about Gauguin in the tropics, after van Gogh’s famous ear-cutting incident broke up their partnership; and a technical appendix with results from lab investigations of canvas fibers and paint chemistry that help to date the works. In clear art historical prose, the painters’ motivations are pointed out, such as van Gogh’s portrait of Gauguin seen from behind: “In no other instance did Vincent decline to confront a sitter in this way.” Two self-portraits, done simultaneously for a friend named Paul Laval, are cogently contrasted, with van Gogh’s depiction of his own face showing “a scowl of concern and irritation, his green-eyed gaze skittish…” whereas Gauguin’s view of himself shows “watchful, almost smug self-possession.” This kind of lively character analysis, as well as art historical smarts, will make this a prestigious title for anyone even vaguely interested in modern French painting, but the 510 illustrations (over 300 in color) are the stars of the show here.
