History & Criticism

Parkstone International

<p>French painter, decorator, and engraver Maurice Denis (1870-1943) was the leader of the Nabi movement who shook up the art world. Skilfully uniting religion and modernity, he was the pioneer and theoretician of the school of art which he named N#65533;o-traditionnismeand he aspired to a modern art imprinted with Symbolist and mystical influences. "Remember that a picture before being a battle horse, a nude, or some anecdote, is essentially a flat surface covered with colours assembled in a certain order": by this definition of his movement, he revolutionised modern art and cleared the way for abstract art to emerge.</p>

Maurice Denis (Mega Square)

Parkstone Pr

Bonnard, Vuillard, Roussel and Denis were the most distinguished of the Nabis, a Post-Impressionist artistic group that formed in the late 19th century. However, an increasing individualism in their art often threatened the groups unity, and their work started to diverge. This publication lets readers compare and put into perspective the artists within this fascinating group. Magnifying everyday scenes and landscapes in harmonious compositions, the paintings of the Nabis will appeal to art students and art lovers, but also to a wider audience.
