Unflinching truth British artist Lucian Freud (1922-2011) was widely considered the most important figurative painter of his generation. Master portraitist and specialist in nudes, Freud used impasto to create depth and intensity while restraining his color palette to mostly muted hues. His portraits may be physically unflattering to their subjects, but they are honest, frank, and unapologetic. "I paint people," Freud said, "not because of what they are like, not exactly in spite of what they are like, but how they happen to be." About the Series: Each book in TASCHEN's Basic Art series features: a detailed chronological summary of the life and oeuvre of the artist, covering his or her cultural and historical importance a concise biography approximately 100 illustrations with explanatory captions No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

Freud is also an interesting landscape painter. Who knew? This edition - one of the Taschen artist books - has many lavish reproductions. Many of the paintings discussed and shown in Smee's book are in private collections, and I had never before seen a number of them. (
