Limited edition of 1,000 sets. Balthus - The Last Studies is an undisclosed corpus of nearly two thousand photographs produced during the last ten years of the painter's life. They are the preliminary studies for his last three major paintings. His hands incapacitated by old age, Balthus resorted to the camera as a sort of prosthesis, at once eye, hand and pencil, thus reassuming the mysterious ritual of sketching, for him the one and only way to approach and define the mental image from which the painting's composition would proceed. As a substitute for drawing, these never before seen photographs fully participate in the slow, painstaking practice which had been Balthus's for nearly a century. As such, they give a major insight into the painter's endless quest of beauty. 限量版1000套。《巴尔瑟斯-*后的研究》是一本未公开的文集,收录了画家生命中*后十年拍摄的近两千张照片。这是他*后三幅主要画作的初步研究。巴尔塞斯的双手因年老而丧失了能力,他将相机作为一种假肢,同时使用眼睛、手和铅笔,从而重新诠释了绘画的神秘仪式,对他来说,这是接近和定义绘画构图所依据的心理形象的*途径。作为绘画的替代品,这些从未见过的照片充分参与了巴尔塞斯近一个世纪以来缓慢而艰苦的实践。因此,他们对画家对美的无尽追求有了深刻的见解。 出版社:Steidl;第Limited版(2014年2月15日) 出版日期:2014年2月15日 语言:英语 精装:448页 ISBN-10:3869306858 ISBN-13:978-3869306858 尺寸:39.62x9.91x49.78cm
