MODIGLIANI GEBUNDEN

A groundbreaking  new perspective on the painter's scandalous nudes. Among the most celebrated
works of Modigliani's brief but brilliant career are his large-format nudes. Drenched in color
and glowing with the artist's deep appreciation of women and the female form  these works
ushered in a new era of nude portraiture  while also causing an enormous scandal. This stunning
exhibition catalog offers a new perspective on this aspect of Modigliani's work by examining
for the first time his portraits of emancipated women sporting coupe garçonnes haircuts and
wearing loin cloths. Modigliani was one of the first chroniclers of the femme moderne  which
also influenced his nude painting and the scandal they caused. Featuring lavish reproductions
and astute texts by leading scholars  this volume also examines Modigliani's cultural context
in European Classicism  from Toulouse-Lautrec and Cezanne to the work of his contemporaries 
including Paula Modersohn-Becker  Gustav Klimt  Egon Schiele  Jeanne Mammen and Wilhelm
Lehmbruck  and traces his impact on future European Modernism and New Objectivity.
