Synopsis
Themes of exile and alienation in the early work of Soutine Inspired by Rembrandt, Chardin and Courbet, Chaïm Soutine forged a new Expressionist idiom that bridged art history and modernity in its articulation of human vulnerability and existence on society's margins. His impasto portraits, executed in broad brushstrokes, his agitated, frenetic landscapes and his famous paintings of slaughtered animals all express, in vivid colors, an intense hunger for life and profound alienation in an uncertain world. Despite the recognition his work received, Soutine remained an outsider throughout his life, a stranger to the social manners of his adopted home in France. This catalog focuses on his early masterpieces and series created between 1919 and 1925. Addressing the overarching theme of emigration and dislocation, essays reveal the traces of Soutine's Jewish origins in his work; illuminate the significance of his motifs and the metaphorical resonances of his animal carcasses; and show the influences of Soutine's art up to the present day. Chaïm Soutine (1893-1943) grew up in a shtetl near Minsk. In 1913 he arrived in Paris and moved into the legendary artist residence La Ruche (the Beehive), working alongside artists such as Chagall and Modigliani. Fleeing the Nazis, he died in 1943. His work has proved enduringly influential for artists such as de Kooning, Pollock, Bacon and Dubuffet., Themes of exile and alienation in the early work of Soutine Inspired by Rembrandt, Chardin and Courbet, Chaïm Soutine forged a new Expressionist idiom that bridged art history and modernity in its articulation of human vulnerability and existence on society s margins.

His work has proved enduringly influential for artists such as de Kooning, Pollock, Bacon and Dubuffet., An insatiable Hunger for Life Clenched, raw and of a pressing urgentness: Chaïm Soutine's expressive paintings are testimonies to a sense of human vulnerability and an existence on the margins of society. Intensely coloured, his meaty impasto portraits are thrown onto the canvas with broad brushstrokes, his agitated, frenetic landscapes and the paintings of slaughtered animals are expressions of an intense hunger for life and, at the same time, a deep alienation in an unsteady world that offers no support. Despite the recognition his work received, Soutine remained an outsider throughout his life, a stranger to the social manners of his adopted home in France. This catalogue focuses on the early masterpieces and series created between 1919 and 1925: Under the overarching theme of emigration and uprooting, the contributions reveal the traces of Soutine's Jewish origins in his work, illuminate the significance of his motifs from the fringes of society as well as of blood and animal carcasses as metaphors; and show the influences of Soutine's art up to the present day.

- o***e (118)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseGood quality, good condition, good price point, ok appearance. Communication was average. Didn’t ignore but didn’t respond until the second message and then didn’t provide additional pics that were requested, just pics that were already in the listing. All that said the product was what I expected I just had to do my own research that could’ve been answered with a single photo.
