Item Number: 130238 Title: VAN GOGH : Colours of the North, Colours of the South Author: van Heugten, Sjaar (ed) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9782330031145 Description: Arles: Actes Sud, 2014. 28cm., pbk., 128pp. illus. Exhibition held at Fondation Vincent van Gogh Arles. English text. Summary: Vincent van Gogh started his career in 1880 as a rather old-fashioned artist, during his Dutch years in the grey and dark palette of his great examples, the painters of the Barbizon and Hague schools. After his move to Paris in 1886, he developped a truly modern style with a bright and forceful palette. When he settled in Arles in February 1888, the light and the colors of Provence inspired him profoundly, and his work from that time established his reputation as one of the most significant colorists of all time. With a focused approach, nine paintings by Van Gogh are shown in the context of both the painters that inspired his early work as well as those who guided his transition to modernity.
